-Deeply hydrating, moisturizing, and great for detangling!
-These ingredients are also great for stimulating scalp circulation and blood flow long-term, which is crucial to hair growth and health.
-The spearmint is a fabulous ingredient too, even for hair loss. In a 2020 study, a combination of flaxseed and spearmint extract improved the endocrine profile of some PCOS patients. But, further studies for the topical application of spearmint and anti-androgenetic activity should be explored.
