Bhringraj oil is made by infusing the herb Eclipta alba — known in Ayurveda as 'the king of hair' — into a cold-pressed carrier oil. It has been used in India for generations as a cooling, calming scalp tonic.
Brewoil's bhringraj oil is cold-pressed and lab-verified, preserving the herb's actives in a clean, pure base.
Bhringraj is traditionally used to support the hair roots, calm the scalp, and reduce the kind of stress-related shedding many people experience. Regular massage is believed to encourage fuller, healthier-looking hair and a balanced scalp.
It pairs perfectly with amla and brahmi for a complete Ayurvedic hair-oiling ritual.
Warm the oil, section the hair, and massage into the scalp for five to ten minutes. Wrap in a warm towel for 30 minutes, then shampoo gently. Use two to three times a week. Combine with amla oil in equal parts for an extra-nourishing treatment.
Bhringraj suits anyone concerned with hair fall, thinning or a stressed scalp, and those who prefer a traditional Ayurvedic approach. Patch test before first use.
