Hairy Vagabond® Emu Oil Based Beard Balm
Gentle emu oil beard balm
Emu oil, triple refined, organic, 100% pure, no additives (Australia). Emu oil has shown some promise towards a natural way of reviving hair follicles towards health and growth, particularly due to the anti-inflammatory properties it has. Boston University School of Medicine led by Professor Michael Hollick, M.D., Ph.D., found treating scalp with emu oil resulted in 20% increase in hair growth activity, compared to skin treated with corn oil. Emu oil is rich in essential fatty acids (EFAs) specially oleic acid, which penetrates deep into the skin, and suspected of promoting healthy hair follicles. Studies reported from England, indicated that there was an average of 8% per month and 48% over six months of hair regrowth with emu oil. The participants were told to apply emu oil on their scalp and to leave it on for at 30 minutes before rinsing. Hair growth became evident after following these instructions for 30 - 90 days.
Olive Squalane, organic, cold pressed,made without pesticides, GMO's, or hexane (France). Squalane is a light and stable version of olive oil squalene, hydrogenated to make it stable and non-oxidative. Squalene is found naturally in the sebum of human skin and is believed to lubricate and protect skin. Squalane, its hydrogenated cousin, is widely used as a conditioner, emollient and carrier oil in cosmetic formulations. It is easy to emulsify, chemically inert, but soluble in most cosmetic oils. It is an elegant emollient with exceptional spreading properties.Moisturizing your hair will help increase shine and prevent breakage. Hair has its own natural oils. Yet, weather, age, diet, and heat damage can dry out locks. Squalane will replenish your strands and protect your hair from further damage.
