Saw Palmetto (Serenoa Repens)
Found in:
TOPICAL OVERNIGHT OIL | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Saw Palmetto is a tropical palm-like small plant primarily found in North America and contains essential fatty acids required for the proper function of hair, skin and nails.
What It Does
The hormone byproduct of testosterone conversion is DHT (dihydrotestosterone). The enzyme 5-AR (5-alpha-reductase) is responsible for this conversion. DHT causes most hair loss in both men and women. A high essential fatty acid extract of saw palmetto berries has been shown to block 5-alpha-reductase, preventing the conversion of testosterone to DHT. This allows for free flowing testosterone within the body which is needed by all genders. The higher the extract percentage, the higher the medicinal value.
The Science
Saw palmetto has been shown in over 25 clinical trials to inhibit DHT in the body, improve urinary tract health, and support hair health. HAIRMETTO’s super-critical CO2-extraction retains 85-95% of the medicinal value of essential fatty acids. Learn more about how saw palmetto is an effective DHT blocker here.
Pumpkin seed oil (Cucurbita Pepo)
Found in:
TOPICAL OVERNIGHT OIL | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Pumpkin seed oil is extracted from the humble pumpkin’s seeds but contains powerful extracts with many health benefits called phytosterols.
What It Does
Like saw palmetto, phytosterols in cold-pressed pumpkin seed oil have been shown to block the action of 5-alpha reductase, an enzyme responsible for hair loss.
Pumpkin Seed contains the compounds delta-7-sterine and beta-sitosterol that compete with and lower the level of DHT in the follicles. Saw palmetto and pumpkin seed extracts have been used in combination for years as effective treatment in Europe and more recently North America.
The Science
Pumpkin seed oil has been shown in randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind studies to block the action of 5-alpha reductase.
Castor Seed Oil (Ricinus Communis)
Found in:
TOPICAL OVERNIGHT OIL | DUO TOPICAL OIL & SERUM | HAIR RESTORATION KIT
What It Is
Castor oil is made from the seeds of the castor plant. Its medicinal use dates back to ancient Egypt.
What it does
High quantities of Vitamin E and Omega-9 fatty acids in castor oil nourish the scalp and hair. It contains anti-fungal properties and anti-bacterial acids to help prevent and treat scalp infections. Castor Seed oil soothes dry scalp, adds moisture to the hair, and nourishes the follicle for healthy growth.
The Science
Although there are no scientific studies on Castor oil and hair, the nutrients in castor oil—like antioxidants and fatty acids—have been known for decades to be beneficial for hair and scalp health.
HAIRMETTO® uses only Pharmaceutical Grade Castor Oil. While we would like to choose an organic source, the medicinal values would be lost. Choosing USP Castor Seed Oil retains the essential function and benefits to your scalp and hair.
Rosemary, Lavendar & Cedarwood Extract
What It Is
Inside many plants—hidden in roots, seeds, flowers, and bark—are concentrated, highly potent chemical compounds. These natural compounds are essential oils.
What It Does
Cedarwood oil is known for its anti-inflammatory benefits - regularizing the skin's sebum production and assisting with seborrhea or seborrheic eczema, where sebum production increases, causing infection in the epidermal cells.
Rosemary essential oil is known for its antimicrobial properties and is used for various skin infections, including eczema.
Lavender essential oil’s anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties work for the scalp's health and assist follicles with hair growth.
The Science
Dermatologists in Scotland gave an essential oil blend containing Rosemary, Lavender and Cedarwood to participants suffering from alopecia areata. After 7 months, almost half regrew as much as 50% of their hair, while a few regrew almost all of it back.
