What is Apricot Oil? 

This secret and magical ingredient is Apricot, which can do wonders for your hair health. Apricot Oil is derived from the kernels of the apricot fruit. This can easily be absorbed by the hair and does not make your hair greasy. This oil is also called Khubani Oil, one of the best hair and even skincare oil. 

Benefits of Apricot Oil for Hair Growth

• Promotes Hair Growth

Apricot oil strengthens the roots of hair and nourishes the hair follicles, as the oil is packed with vitamins and fatty acids. Vitamin E in this oil will repair damaged hair and support your hair cells. 

• Moisturises and Softens Hair

Apricot oil is very lightweight and non-greasy which locks the moisture in and makes hair soft, smooth, and shiny. 

• Prevents Breakage and Split Ends

Apricot oil helps reduce dryness and brittleness, which causes heavy damage to hair, like breakage and split ends. 

• Best For Sensitive and Itchy Scalp 

Apricot oil possesses ‘Ropan’, which has healing properties that help in healing irritable or sensitive skin. 

How to Use Apricot Oil for Hair Growth

• As a Pre-Shampoo Treatment

Before washing your hair with shampoo. Take slightly warm apricot oil and massage it into your scalp, and apply it to your hair length also. Leave it for 30-60 minutes and then rinse it with shampoo. 

•  Mixed with Conditioner

Yes, you heard that right, you can mix a few drops of apricot oil into your conditioner, whichever you use, for that extra hydration and smoothness. 

• As a Scalp Massage Oil

If you are someone who has a routine of oiling every weekend or any specific day, then you can mix apricot oil with castor or coconut oil. And massage it into your scalp twice a week for hair growth. Just remember to do it consistently. 

• Leave-In Serum

As it is not non-greasy, you can even apply a small amount of apricot oil to damp hair, just like serum for that non-frizzy hair.
