Ah yes, the weekly oil champi. A hair ritual passed down from your grandmother’s grandmother from her grandmother. Champis are nobody’s absolute favourite, are they? Whether it was the fear of being called names in school or the fear of staining your favourite dress with hair oil, we all have our individual problems with this ancient Indian haircare technique. The love-hate relationship that we share with a champi is every Indian girls’ passage of rite. While my relationship with hair oiling has always inclined more towards the latter, it recently transformed into a soothing experience, all thanks to St.Botanica’s Red Onion Hair Oil.
If you are also a victim of sticky hair oils that weigh your hair down all the time, leave greasy stains on anything your hair comes in contact with, and stubborn oil traces in your hair that won’t say goodbye even after double shampooing your hair, this is the solution for you. I was going through all of these problems and more with my old hair oil. The situation drove me crazy with frustration and I stopped oiling my hair for over 2-3 months! It was when I noticed a decline in the health of my hair that I went on a hunt to find the perfect hair oil for me that would not only nourish my hair back to health but can do so without making me go through the same old champi problems. Enter Red Onion Hair Oil by St.Botanica. My hair and I are in love with this hair oil, and here’s why.
What Is It?
St.Botanica Red Onion Hair Oil is a lightweight hair oil that is made with a blend of 30 powerful haircare ingredients. Its exclusive formula helps in deeply nourishing damaged hair back to health and repairs it. It also helps in reducing hair fall and promotes long, strong and healthy hair growth. Ingredients like onion oil, argan oil, macadamia oil, ratan jot, rosehip oil and curry leaves form an intensely nourishing formula that targets the hair follicles for voluminous hair growth.
Why We Love It?
Apart from solving my greasy hair oil problems, this is the first hair oil that has displayed visible results on my hair this fast.
