As your parents reach the age of 40s and above, their hair starts to be weaker especially if not given enough care. It may result in baldness or bald spots if their hair continuously becomes thin. As their child, you do not want that to happen! So as fast as possible and as early as now, take the initiative to give them the care that they deserve. To prevent future baldness, introduce to them the hair regrowing properties of essential oils like almond oil, castor oil, emu oil, coconut oil, and so much more!

Ingredients and materials

- Add 2 tablespoons of castor oil and 1 tablespoon of sweet almond oil to your glass jar.
- Shake it well to stir the mixture.

However, if your parents are already using it and you notice any allergic reaction such as redness and irritation on the hairline and portion of their face close to the scalp, it is best to stop using the essential oils because its formula is not for their skin type! Be cautious enough in meticulously choosing the essential oils that fit them and do not result in harm. It is better to consult their dermatologist to get to know what is best for your parents’ skin and hair!
