ULTRA LUXURIANT HAIR ELIXIR
Undo the stripping effects of washing, colouring and styling, by oiling, massaging and wrapping. It’s hair care - Indian style.
DESCRIPTION
WHAT IT IS: A potent hair elixir combines active botanicals and cold-pressed oils to strengthen, thicken and condition hair from root to end.
WHO IT’S FOR: Anyone with dry, frizzy, damaged and or thinning hair. Works on all hair types – fine or coarse.
HOW IT WORKS: The oil absorbs readily into the hair shaft, conditioning and protecting each strand, while botanical actives nourish the scalp, bringing nutrients to hair follicles and strengthening hair right from its roots.
RITUAL
HAIR ELIXIR
This time-honored Ayurvedic hair ritual has more relevance than ever today as it heals the stripping effects of shampooing and heat styling your hair by conditioning and protecting each strand. Moreover, it strengthens and reinforces hair from its roots by deeply nourishing the scalp. Finally, it helps drain toxins from your head, which relieves stress and calms the mind, unlocking deeper, all-rounded wellbeing through the mind-body connection, which is central to Ayurveda.
FOR CONDITIONING AND PROTECTING
the elixir soaks into your shaft and prevents hair from absorbing more water than it needs, thereby reducing breakage
apply focusing on the ends and top layer of hair (most exposed to the elements and typically porous)
a normal hair structure has cuticles lying down
washing without oiling makes hair absorb too much water too quickly, leaving it more vulnerable to breakage
washing after your hair shaft has soaked in the elixir, reduces breakage and increases shine
FOR STRENGTHENING AND CALMING
use a few drops to massage your scalp, increasing the flow of nutrient-rich blood to the hair follicles
use all ten fingers to massage from sides of head to imaginary mohawk, focusing on these marma (energy) points
massaging these marma points improves blood circulation to your hair follicles, drains toxins and helps calm your mind
try inverted massaging, bending from the waist with head upside down to increase blood flow to your hair follicles
POST-SHAMPOO HAIR OIL TREATMENT:
After shampooing and conditioning, apply a tiny dab of elixir to towel-dried hair, focusing on the ends. Dry as usual for silky, shiny hair.
INGREDIENTS
Key herbs for the scalp: HAIRY BASIL ROOT, AMLA, GOTU KOLA (BRAHMI), BHRINGRAJ, VETIVER
Key oils for the hair: COCONUT OIL, SWEET ALMOND OIL, MORINGA OIL, SESAME OIL
HAIRY BASIL ROOT: there’s a reason why Indian ancients worshipped the Holy Basil plant twice a day. Its essential oils and phytonutrients make it an almost miraculous herb with incredible healing properties. Within our Ultra Luxuriant Hair Elixir, it stimulates hair papilla cells, rejuvenates the scalp and makes hair fuller.
AMLA: is a super food. It’s nature’s richest source of vitamin C with approximately 20 times the vitamin C content of oranges and almost twice the antioxidant power of acai berry. All amazing at strengthening hair right from the roots and preserving its natural colour and lustre.
GOTU KOLA (BRAHMI): contains phytochemicals including beta-carotene, camphol and campesetol, and is a source of the minerals calcium, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium, selenium and zinc as well as vitamin C, B–1, B–2 and B–3. Gotu Kola stimulates microcirculation, which enables greater oxygen and nutrient intake by the follicle, thereby enriching its growth.
BHRINGRAJ: is a wonderfully rejuvenating herb, with antioxidant properties which protect against the ageing process. It’s known to promote healthy hair, and prevent hair loss and greying.
VETIVER: has both healing and regenerative properties, which stimulate collagen production and improve the dermal structure of your scalp thereby nourishing the hair follicle.
COCONUT OIL: is the richest natural source of medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs), special types of fatty acid with antibacterial and antimicrobial properties that also nourish the scalp and hair. Its molecular structure allows it to penetrate hair in ways that other oils can’t.
SWEET ALMOND OIL: is bursting with Vitamin E, monounsaturated fatty acids, proteins, potassium and zinc and a host of vitamins that your hair needs. Although it’s in the hair not scalp section, we’ve found it gets rid of cradle cap far better than any of the chemical shampoo treatments that our pediatricians recommended.
MORINGA OIL: is rich in the phytonutrients your skin loves, Moringa seed oil strengthens hair by delivering important minerals and vitamins to the hair follicles.
SESAME OIL: is a warming, nourishing oil rich in fatty acids, including linoleic acid, and vitamin E, D and B complex as well as minerals that strengthen hair. We use it because sesame oil’s warming properties balance the cooling effects of coconut oil.
