Below you will find a short list of natural ingredients that have been gave great results in a very short span of time.
1. Castor Oil
First of all, it is rich in ricinoleic acid. This is a type of omega 9 acid that has powerful antibacterial and fungicidal properties which fight excess sebum and dandruff in hair fibers. It is a very thick oil, so it is advisable to dilute it with another type of oil, for example almond or coconut.

2. Ylang Ylang essential oil
This oil is useful to increase the thickness of the hair shaft. It’s also wonderful for treating split ends and can balance scalp oil production. Olivella’s relaxing body with ylang ylang is also good for your hair. Use it on the tips of damp hair to restore thickness and close the ends.

3. Olive leaf oil and olive oil
Olive oil and olive leaf oil are not the same thing; however, they are both highly sought after because they both contain relevant amounts of oleuropein. Olive oil is derived from the fruit of the olive tree, while olive leaf oil is extracted from its leaves. For your hair a good combination of both can really make an improvement.

4. Almond oil
Almond oil is the best for growing softer and shinier hair. It is a good source of antioxidants, which helps reduce hair damage and is rich in special nutrients like magnesium, fatty acids and vitamins such as vitamin A, D and E.
