Nature’s miracles that heal – The ingredients
Coconut Oil – The key base ingredient of Amritha Varshini hair oil is coconut (Cocos Nucifera) oil. Coconut oil, one of the many superfoods, doubles up as a rich source of nutrients for the scalp and skin when applied externally. It contains a special fatty acid called Lauric acid. Coconut oil blended with 16 herbs is an elixir that penetrates deep into hair follicles, aids exfoliation, nourishes and moisturizes the hair strands, boosts blood circulation to the scalp and making it healthy and smooth. Coconut and areca palm inflorescence replenish natural calcium content in the hair and allow faster absorption of nutrients. A bonus is that it evades greasy feel of oil that generally comes with any kind of hair oil, making it shine, minus the oiliness.
​
Coconut oil is the most popular oil used for hair care around the world. The chemical compounds such as saturated fatty acids present in coconut oil are responsible for promoting hair growth.
​
Coconut oil contains major fatty acids including lauric acid, myristic acid and capric acid which supply essential nutrients, improve radiance, thickness and health of hair and scalp. Lauric acid eradicates microbes including bacteria, fungi, and viruses. These fatty acids enable easy penetration of the oil into hair shafts, act as a natural personal lubricant and make coconut oil an excellent massage oil.
