August is National Hair Loss Awareness Month, a month dedicated to discussing the common issue of hair loss and exploring solutions that could work for you, especially using Rosemary Oil and the benefits it can have for hair loss. Hair loss affects people of all ages and backgrounds, and it can have a big impact on your confidence and self-esteem.  

Did you know? 40% of women experience hair loss during the menopause. The hormonal fluctuations that occur during menopause, particularly the decrease in oestrogen and progesterone levels, can contribute to thinning hair and increased hair shedding. This can present in many ways, including all over thinning, bald patches or a receding hairline.

Many people who are experiencing hair loss turn to natural solutions, and one ingredient that has gained a lot of traction is Rosemary Oil. Known for its aromatic and anti-inflammatory properties, studies have shown that Rosemary Oil can help improve hair and scalp health, particularly when it comes to combating hair loss. Often used in scalp treatments and serums, Rosemary Oil is also known to help improve circulation and soothe the scalp, provide a more optimal environment for healthy hair growth.

Our Menopause Hair Thickening Scalp Serum is infused with Rosemary Oil and 80% of menopausal women agreed their hair felt stronger and scalp looked healthier after using the serum for 8 weeks*.

Keep reading to explore the amazing benefits of using Rosemary Oil and how you can incorporate it into your daily hair care routine.

What is Rosemary Oil? Derived from the leaves of the rosemary plant, which is native to the Mediterranean region. This essential oil has been used for centuries in traditional medicine for its various health benefits, including its ability to help support healthy hair growth and improve overall scalp health.

Key Benefits of Rosemary Oil for Hair Loss:

1. Helps Support Healthy Hair Growth: studies have shown that Rosemary Oil can help strengthen circulation to the scalp. Improved circulation ensures that hair follicles receive essential nutrients and bloody supply, encouraging healthy hair growth. One research study showed that Rosemary Oil could be as effective as Minoxidil, a commonly used hair growth medication, known to help increase hair growth. The study showed an increase in hair count of alopecia sufferers after six months of use.

2. Anti-Inflammatory and Antimicrobial Properties: Rosemary Oil is a powerful antioxidant which is well renowned for its antimicrobial properties. As a rich source of antioxidants, it also helps fight free radicals, preventing oxidative stress and helping to soothe the scalp.
3. Improves Scalp Health: A healthy scalp is essential for healthy hair growth. By helping to stimulate blood flow to the follicles and soothe the scalp with its anti-inflammatory properties, Rosemary Oil can help improve overall scalp health and provide a more optimal environment for hair growth. If you are using Rosemary Oil directly on the scalp, always make sure to use a diluted version as pure Rosemary Oil can irritate the skin.
4. Strengthens Hair: Regular application of Rosemary Oil can help condition and strengthen hair strands. Stronger strands mean reduced breakage and split ends, resulting in healthier and more resilient hair.

While the cult oil has been praised for working miracles, it’s not a cure for stopping hair loss completely. If you are suffering from hair loss, thinning or bald patches, we always recommend consulting a professional and speaking with your doctor.
