{"product_id":"henna-oil","title":"Henna Oil - Mehndo Carrier Oil","description":"\u003cp\u003eHerbology Henna Oil is 100% pure, cold pressed Lawsonia inermis (Henna \/ Mehndi) seed oil, extracted from the seeds of one of the most culturally significant and widely used botanical plants in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African traditions. Known as \"Mehndi\" in Urdu and Hindi and \"Henna\" in Arabic and English, Lawsonia inermis has been used for over 5,000 years across the Indian subcontinent, the Arab world, and North Africa for hair care, skin adornment, and medicinal purposes. While henna leaves are universally known for their hair colouring and body art applications, Henna seed oil delivers the plant's nourishing, conditioning, and scalp supporting properties in a pure, versatile oil form that does not impart colour.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHenna Oil's hair and scalp benefits come from its rich phytochemical and fatty acid composition: lawsone (2 hydroxy 1,4 naphthoquinone), the primary bioactive compound of the henna plant, with documented antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti inflammatory properties; a fatty acid profile rich in linoleic acid (40 to 50%) and oleic acid (20 to 30%) for deep hair shaft conditioning and scalp nourishment; tannins and gallic acid with astringent and antioxidant properties that help tighten the hair cuticle for improved smoothness and shine; and flavonoids including luteolin and apigenin with anti inflammatory and antioxidant action. Lawsone's antifungal action addresses dandruff causing Malassezia fungi, while its anti inflammatory properties soothe scalp irritation. The tannin content's cuticle tightening action is the mechanism behind henna's legendary ability to add shine, smoothness, and body to hair. Its linoleic acid content penetrates the hair shaft for deep conditioning and reduced protein loss. A deeply traditional, genuinely effective, and culturally resonant hair care oil with thousands of years of proven use across the subcontinent and beyond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLawsone Antifungal and Antimicrobial Action\u003c\/strong\u003e the primary bioactive compound of henna; addresses dandruff causing Malassezia fungi and supports a healthier scalp environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTannin Cuticle Tightening for Shine and Smoothness\u003c\/strong\u003e astringent tannins tighten the hair cuticle for improved smoothness, shine, and body; the science behind henna's legendary hair beautifying reputation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRich in Linoleic Acid (40 to 50%)\u003c\/strong\u003e penetrates hair shaft for deep conditioning, reduced protein loss, and improved hair strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAnti Inflammatory Scalp Support\u003c\/strong\u003e lawsone and flavonoid content soothe scalp irritation and support a balanced, healthy scalp environment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGallic Acid Antioxidant Protection\u003c\/strong\u003e protects hair follicles and scalp from oxidative stress for healthier, more resilient hair\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeeply Traditional South Asian Hair Care\u003c\/strong\u003e Mehndi in Urdu; 5,000 years of use in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and North African hair care traditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% Pure and Cold Pressed\u003c\/strong\u003e no additives, fillers, or chemical processing; does not impart colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHair conditioning and shine enhancement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScalp health and dandruff control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHair strengthening and protein loss reduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraditional South Asian hair oiling routines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIY hair care formulations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScalp and hair (primary use):\u003c\/strong\u003e Apply to scalp and hair, massage gently in circular motions for 5 to 10 minutes.
