3 Different Ways To Use Mustard Oil In Hair Care Routine By Reward Me

Alright, hands up if there’s some sort of hair-related anxiety bothering you right now! There you go. From hair loss and split ends to frizzy hair, lifeless hair and

• dandruff, there’s no end to the complaints we hear and circulate on a daily basis.

But if you’ve already had your doctor pronounce you perfectly healthy and you’re convinced the reason for your hair loss isn’t hormonal, you might want to keep your hair healthy and pampered by the many benefits of mustard oil for your hair. But, umm, mustard oil for the hair? Wouldn’t that make your hair smell like some kind of Bengali lunch? Well, that’s what nice-smelling shampoos are for, yes? 

But before we go into how to use mustard oil for your hair, you should know why it’s such a key ingredient in most hair-related concerns.

Top 3 Benefits of Mustard Oil

1. Mustard seed oil is rich in antioxidants such as selenium, which protect cells from harsh environmental conditions. Translation: Regular use of mustard oil for hair can help prevent damage and restore its natural shine.
2. Next, mustard oil is loaded with proteins, essential for hair growth and maintenance of strong, healthy hair. So if hair loss is your complaint, it’s quite possible you’re running short of essential proteins and your body is directing any protein reserves towards more critical functions and away from the hair. So, again, regular use of mustard oil for hair loss can work magic for profusely shedding hair.
3. And finally, mustard seed oil is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids – so important for fat hair growth and strong, lustrous hair. Yes, it’s basically a natural hair supplement.

Now that we’ve convinced you enough about the benefits of mustard oil, let’s go into application. You’re going to need some time for this, so make sure you pick a weekend or some time when you can afford to relax (side note: stress leads to hair loss).

How to Use Mustard Oil to Get Healthier Hair

1. Mildly heat a small quantity of mustard oil
2. Part your hair in the center and apply the oil from the roots all the way to the tips
3. Gently massage the oil into the scalp for as long as you wish
4. Leave it on at least for a couple of hours
5.  If your hair is very dry, mustard oil works as an excellent conditioner, so it would be safe to leave it on your hair even overnight
6. You’d want to wear a shower cap or tie your hair in a turban before you go to sleep though, to prevent pillow stains
7. Wash off thoroughly in the morning with a hair-nourishing shampoo like Pantene Pro-V Lively Clean Shampoo.
8. Repeat twice a week for best results

Now that you know the wonders you can achieve with a single ingredient, make sure you’re regular at your mustard oil routine. You’ll be surprised just how much this oil that the ancient Greeks loved so much, has your hair problems covered!
