Benefits Of Using Grapeseed Oil As A Deep Conditioning Treatment

Grapeseed oil is rich in linoleic oil and Vitamin E, which is a great antioxidant and an emollient. The antioxidants help battle free radicals that damage your hair while the emollient properties help seal moisture in your hair shaft. It also helps soothe the scalp, treat dandruff, and smooth the hair shaft, preventing issues like frizz, splitting, and breakage.

Precautions
  • Ensure that the water is not so hot that it melts the bag.
  • Do not over-heat the oil as you can end up burning your scalp.
