How To Get Naturally Beautiful Hair with Turmeric

Shiny natural hair with Turmeric

Do you think of your hair as your crowning glory, or are you feeling a bit frazzled in that area? Either way, we have great news for you! Whether you want to stimulate hair growth, thicken your hair, or sort out scalp issues, Turmeric could be your golden ticket.

Turmeric can be a major contributor to hair growth because curcumin, its active compound, has properties that are:

  • Antifungal

  • Anti-inflammatory

  • Anti-allergic

  • Antioxidant

  • Antiseptic

  • Antibacterial

And all those ‘antis’ are why we are so PRO Turmeric!

Turmeric And Your Hair

Your scalp is the literal foundation of your hair, and Turmeric, being both gentle and stimulating, is your first line of protection. It can guard against itchy, flaky skin and inflammation and could be your best-kept secret in the quest for thick, strong hair.

Turmeric Is Brilliant for Hair Growth

Why: It is a fantastic exfoliating cleanser for the hair and scalp. The antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties are vital for treating many hair-related issues.

How: Make your own hair mask by creating a paste with equal parts Turmeric powder and water. Add enough skin-soothing aloe vera gel to thicken the paste.

To Make Paste: Simply mix ingredients until it is the consistency of toothpaste. Adjust by adding more water or a touch of Turmeric powder.

To Use on Hair: Apply this to your scalp and massage gently but firmly enough to feel some warmth. Leave it for 15–30 minutes before washing with a gentle, natural shampoo. Do this twice weekly if possible. 

Turmeric Is Incredible for Combating Hair Loss

Why: Turmeric can help combat dermatitis and eczema on the scalp. It invigorates the scalp while being gentle on the skin, increasing circulation and providing nutrition to the hair follicles.

How: Use the same Turmeric paste recipe but replace the aloe vera with milk to keep it pasty and add a tablespoon of honey.

Turmeric Is Excellent for Treating Dandruff and Dry Scalp Issues

Why: Turmeric’s antibacterial properties clear up the scalp, preventing dandruff accumulation. Its stimulation of blood circulation also helps prevent dead skin cells from forming.

How: Create a little cup of the paste mentioned above but replace the milk and honey with olive oil.

Other Factors for Healthy Hair

There could be a number of reasons for hair issues, including diet and stress. Take a good look at those and see where you can make changes.
