Carrot Oil for Hair Growth— Is It Actually Worth Trying? We Investigate.

Carrots are synonymous with salad or as a mid-day snack – if you’re trying to substitute that blueberry muffin for a healthier option.

However, from its roots to the seeds, the entire vegetable contains a slew of health and beauty benefits.

Anecdotal results show that apart from improving vision and reducing cholesterol levels, carrots, or their potent oil, are known to help hydrate, strengthen, and stimulate hair follicles.

So, is carrot oil the long-kept secret to voluptuous hair?

Well, keep scrolling to find out everything you need to know about the benefits of using carrot oil on your hair.

Quick Facts

Properties Featured: Nutrients and antioxidants

Primary Benefits: Stimulates hair follicles, gives hair a hydration boost, prevents hair thinning, and strengthens hair fibers

Perfect For: Individuals struggling with fine hair and persons looking to strengthen and protect their hair

How Often Can You Use It: Once or twice every week

Works Well With: Grapeseed and coconut oil

Shouldn’t Be Used With: There haven’t been any warnings regarding mixing it with other ingredients

Carrot Oil for Hair Explained

Carrot Oil

Carrot oil is extracted from crushed carrot roots and seeds. The crushed product is immersed into a carrier oil such as coconut or olive oil to form the powerful carrot oil.

For the most part, this essential oil is widely used in Africa, Europe, and West Asia as a food or for medicinal purposes.

Still, recent studies show that it features biological properties that are both hypotensive and antimicrobial, making it ideal for the scalp.

In short, carrot oil helps fight against various bacteria-causing germs and fungus to give you dandruff-free hair.

It also reduces hair loss and strengthens and stimulates hair follicles.

That’s because carrot oil has regenerative properties that improve blood circulation, sealing hair cuticles and strengthening hair fibers.

According to experts, these same blood-boosting properties can help avert hair loss, keep hair healthier, and encourage hair growth.

The essential oil’s vitamins A, B, C, and E, as well as magnesium and phosphorous properties, might help protect your hair from harsh UV rays and air pollution, too.

Perks of Using Carrot Oil for Hair

Carrot oil offers tons of benefits for your hair and scalp. It promotes hair growth, prevents hair loss and split ends, and removes dandruff and dry scalp.

Even better, the oil helps hydrate your hair and scalp, too.

Gets rid of dandruff and dry scalp: Carrot oil features lots of antibacterial properties that protect your hair from bacteria and fungus (like those that cause dandruff). Using this essential oil on your scalp can also help trigger the production of sebum, which prevents dry scalp.

Hydrates your hair and scalp: If you deep condition your hair with a carrot oil-infused product, it can help improve texture, making it smoother, silkier, and softer to the touch.

Promotes hair growth: The essential oil helps your hair grow faster and thicker by stimulating your hair follicles. It also reduces breakage and split ends.

Prevents hair loss and split ends: By enhancing blood flow, carrot oil seals the hair cuticles and strengthens hair fiber, preventing hair loss.

What Hair Type Should You Use Carrot Oil On?

Carrot oil is perfect for individuals looking to strengthen, grow out and protect their hair. However, you should note that the essential oil might not be ideal for all hair types.

Even though the evidence is anecdotal, carrot oil can stain light hair color, like blonde or silver, and come in sticky or tacky formulas that might not blend with certain hair textures/types.

Moreover, carrot oil might discolor your scalp – you don’t want to go on your date night looking like a clown.

Additionally, anyone struggling with chronic medical scalp conditions should be cautious when using herbal oils or formulas.

If you’re also allergic to carrot oil, you should steer away from it. To check your reaction to the oil, do a patch test and see how your skin reacts.

How to Use It

If you’ve been looking for products to help encourage hair growth, strengthen your hair follicles, or reduce dandruff, you might want to add carrot oil to your beauty arsenal. The best part?

It’s a popular ingredient present in creams, conditioners, oils, and hair masks as a hydrating agent.

As mentioned, you’re recommended to use the essential oil at least twice a week. You can buy a premade hair treatment or go the DIY way and whip up your mask of goodness.

For DIY:

• Dilute three to four drops of carrot oil in two to four tablespoons of coconut, grapeseed, or olive oil (your preferred carrier oil)

• Work it on your and gently massage it into your scalp

• Comb it through

• Cover with a plastic cap

• Let it sit for 60 to 120 minutes before washing it out with your preferred shampoo

Another DIY hack:

• Form a rinse with three to four drops of carrot essential oil in a mix of two cups of water and a spoonful of ACV (apple cider vinegar).

• After shampooing your hair, shake this cocktail and rinse your hair again with the carrot oil rinse

• Let it sit for five minutes before rinsing it off

As for store-bought carrot oil-infused products, ensure that you follow the manufacturer’s guidelines to reap maximum benefits.
