Grey hair is a problem that many of us may face in life, but with the help of bergamot oil, you may be able to slow down or reduce the overall appearance of grey hair. This oil is sourced from the citrus fruits of the bergamot orange tree and is most commonly known for its place in aromatherapy and different recipes. However, it also has a number of hair and skin benefits.
Bergamot oil is anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial. This allows it to keep your scalp healthy, soothed, and free of any dandruff or itching. The fragrance of the oil allows for stress reduction, something that can improve grey hair, and the oil itself may work to increase circulation. This will help relieve grey hair on your head and encourage healthy, stronger hair to grow in its place. Bergamot oil is also quite moisturizing and can soften locks, reducing grey hair that may appear brittle or damaged.
To use bergamot oil for your hair, add a few drops to a carrier oil and massage it into your scalp regularly or add several drops into your shampoo and conditioner to take advantage of its hair benefits every time you wash.
