You have landed at the right page. Have you ever tried using Tea Tree Oil for healthy shiny hair??

Is tea tree oil safe to use?

Yes Absolutely.
Just one point to take care of every time is
“Don’t use Tea tree oil without diluting it first.”

Let me start by telling you why and how of it.

Many hair health issues are genetically, but nowadays, pollution, exposure to harmful UV rays and using more heating tools for hair adds onto it. And, these issues often leads to treating your hair with more chemicals.

Previously, I have shared about the tea tree oil’s overall benefits.

So, moving onto the “Why tea tree oil”?

By healthy hair, I mean healthy scalp. Our scalp has minute openings, follicle, which are responsible for the growth of hair. We start facing dandruff, hair fall and dry hair problem when our hair follicles are not properly cleaned and started clogging due to dirt and impurities.

Here, the tea tree oil (diluted) comes to the rescue.

Tea tree oil’s antimicrobial properties make it an amazing cleaning agent. It not only helps in freeing your scalp of any dirt and bacterias but also moisturises your hair and helps in retaining the essential nutrients. Using this oil for hair makes your hair healthy as well as soft. With the nourishing quality of tea tree oil, you will also be able to get longer and thicker hair. It is also said to treat the head lice problem while keeping your scalp clean and healthy.

Coming to “How to use Tea Tree Oil”?

Now, you have an idea why you should use a natural tea tree oil to get healthy hair. Let’s look into the ways you can use it and make it a part of your hair regimen. I would like to remind you again…

“Not to Use the Tea tree oil Without Diluting it.”
And also it will be advisable to do a patch test on your skin before using it on your scalp.

1. For Daily Cleansing & conditioning –

For daily cleansing, mix a few drops of tea tree oil and a small amount of shampoo such that its consistency is maintained. Apply the mixture on wet scalp and massage it slowly. Doing this will result in to clean hair follicles and good hair health.

You can also use it leave-in conditioner. Basically, you just need two ingredients- water and some drops of tea tree oil. But to it, you can also add aloe vera juice for dry damaged hair and also essential oils (peppermint or lavender) to mask its stinky smell. Store it in a spray bottle and shake before using it so that water and oil get properly mixed. Spray it onto your hair after hair wash and style your hair as you like.

2. For Longer & Thicker Hair Growth –

Blend tea tree oil with a carrier oil of your preference (Coconut, or Almond). Massage the mixture slowly onto your scalp. If you have a dry hair texture, apply it overnight, while individuals with oily hair should apply it 1-2 hour before washing. Using it in this way ensures better blood circulation paving the way for the follicles to absorb nutrients accurately. After washing your hair, your scalp will also be free from any toxins.

3. For Dandruff –

Add 10-15 drops of the oil to every ounce of shampoo and massage the mixture. Rinse it thoroughly after 3-5 minutes. The antifungal property of tea tree oil soothes the scalp, removes dandruff, and prevents any flakiness. 

4. For Dry, Itching Scalp –

If you have itchy, dry scalp, treat your scalp with a mixture of few drops of tea tree oil and coconut oil (any oil of your preference). Massage it for almost 15 minutes. Repeat this procedure daily to see the changes. The tea tree oil in the mixture moisturises the scalp and hence prevents dryness related problems.

You can also make hair mask of curd, honey and a few drops of tea tree oil. Apply and massage it with your fingertips. Rinse it thoroughly after 20 minutes. This hair mask is good for dry scalp as well as for dandruff.

5. For oily scalp –

To get rid of oily skin, make a mixture of baking soda, honey, and a few drops of tea tree oil. Make a paste and apply it onto your scalp and leave it for 30 minutes. This paste will control the excess oil secretion and also clear the clogged pores. Use it twice a week for a better result.

7. For getting rid of lice –

This is the scariest thing that can happen to anyone, and it is usually caused by poor scalp health. Insecticidal property (components like 1,8-cineole and terpinen-4-ol) of tea tree oil provides relief from the hair lice.

To get rid of the hair lice, add 7-8 drops to 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Massage it properly and leave it overnight. In the morning, comb with a fine comb properly and then wash your scalp with a suitable shampoo.
