be kean, use neem!

Neem oil is a natural oil that is extracted from the seeds and leaves of the neem tree, which is native to India. It has been used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic medicine to treat a wide range of health conditions, including skin and hair problems. Neem oil is rich in antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds, which are thought to be beneficial for the hair and scalp.

Here is why we added neem to our Conditioning Balm:
  • Treats dandruff: Dandruff is a common scalp condition that is characterized by flaky, white or yellowish skin that sheds from the scalp. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including dry scalp, yeast infections, and allergies. Neem oil is believed to help reduce dandruff by balancing the pH level of the scalp and helping to control the growth of yeast and other fungi.
  • Promotes hair growth: Neem oil is thought to stimulate hair growth by increasing blood flow to the scalp and nourishing the hair follicles. It is also believed to help strengthen the hair shaft, which can help to prevent breakage and promote healthy hair growth.
  • Treats scalp infections: Neem oil has natural antimicrobial properties, which makes it effective at treating scalp infections caused by bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. It can help to soothe irritated scalp and reduce redness, itching, and other symptoms associated with scalp infections.
  • Reduces frizz: Neem oil is rich in fatty acids, which can help to smooth the hair cuticle and reduce frizz. It can also add shine and luster to the hair, helping to improve the overall appearance of the hair.
