“The Cantu Biotin-Infused Hair & Scalp Oil comes is a dark coloured bottle with a pipette that makes the application process easy and mess free.
“The oil has quite a strong smell for my preferences, but I got used to it day by day and the product has a lightweight consistency, [that] absorbs into the hair quite quickly.
“What I liked the most is that does not leave my hair greasy.
“I prefer to apply it at night, to give more time to set into the hair and scalp.
“After couple of weeks of using it, I noticed that my hair roots started to look stronger, healthier and shinier, and my scalp looks hydrated.
“I've been using it for four weeks now and I start noticing baby hairs coming out.”

“I have type 2C-3A curls. I am definitely really loving the outcome of this in my hair care routine and will continue to use it.”
Someone else with the username Dziosefina explained how they had been “struggling with severe hair loss”, especially around the front of her hairline and decided to try this hair oil.

Biotin - Biotin is one of the B vitamins and studies have shown that supplementation can improve hair growth. But for healthy individuals, the general consensus is that supplementing biotin with not aid hair growth. It is, however, considered harmless if you do take excess biotin.
Rosemary oil - A also found evidence that rosemary oil can aid in hair growth. The study stated that rosemary oil had the same effect as Minoxidil, a hair growth medication, after six weeks of use.
If you're after a really natural product, then one beauty fan has a DIY hair solution she swears buy for hair health - and it only requires three ingredients.
You need two to three tablespoons of coconut oil, a tablespoon of honey and dried rose petals.

Place all ingredients in a jar and let it sit for a day or two then apply to scalp and length of hair.
