How To Use

Daily Scalp Care: Apply a few drops directly to the scalp and massage for 3–5 minutes to nourish roots and support healthy growth.

Finishing Touch: Smooth 2–3 drops over the ends of your hair to boost shine, reduce frizz, and protect against dryness.

Deep Treatment: Use generously from roots to tips as a pre-wash hair mask. Leave on for at least 30 minutes or overnight before washing out for intense hydration and revitalisation.

Wonderful product with lovely ingredients and great results, this is my third purchase and it smells lovely, lasts forever and had made a real difference to my hair, love that I can use it in different ways too and the applicator makes it really easy to apply and mess free. My staples are this and the face and body balm that I use on myself and my little one and have also tried the minty lip oil which is very nourishing, 5 stars all around for this lovely small business

I struggled with a dry, itchy scalp for years and nothing ever really helped until this. From the first use, my scalp felt soothed and less irritated, and after a few weeks, I started noticing baby hairs popping up around my hairline. It smells gorgeous too so grounding and herbal. I am obsessed.
