INTRODUCTION:
Calendula Flower & Olive Infused Hair Oil is a nourishing herbal preparation made by infusing dried petals of Calendula officinalis (commonly known as pot marigold) into high-quality Olive oil. This traditional botanical infusion has been used for centuries in herbal and natural hair care due to its soothing, scalp-healing, and strengthening properties.Calendula flowers are rich in flavonoids, triterpenoids, and antioxidants that help calm irritation, reduce scalp inflammation, and support healthy hair follicles. Olive oil, packed with vitamin E, essential fatty acids, and polyphenols, deeply moisturizes the scalp, improves hair elasticity, and protects strands from dryness and environmental damage.

HEALTH BENEFITS:
Soothes Scalp Irritation
Calendula contains anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds that help calm itching, redness, and scalp sensitivity. It is especially helpful for dry or reactive scalp conditions.
Helps Reduce Dandruff
The antifungal and antibacterial properties of calendula support a healthier scalp environment, which may help reduce flaking and dandruff caused by microbial imbalance.
Promotes Healthier Hair Growth
By improving scalp circulation and nourishing hair follicles, this oil supports stronger hair roots and may reduce excessive hair shedding over time.
Deep Moisturization
Olive oil is rich in vitamin E, oleic acid, and antioxidants that deeply hydrate the scalp and hair shaft, preventing dryness and brittleness.
Strengthens Hair Strands
Regular use helps improve elasticity and reduce breakage, making hair softer, smoother, and more manageable.
Supports Scalp Healing
Calendula is traditionally used to support minor wound healing. When applied to the scalp, it may help soothe minor irritation or dryness-related cracking.
Adds Natural Shine
Olive oil smooths the hair cuticle, enhancing shine and reducing frizz without harsh chemicals.
Suitable for Sensitive Skin
This herbal infusion is generally gentle and well tolerated, making it ideal for people with sensitive scalp or those avoiding synthetic hair products.
