We Use Natural Ingredients For Hair Growth
Orisha Drip is made with sustainably sourced, all-natural oils that are extracted using the ancient method of cold pressing seeds. The nutrients from the mother plants, from which the seeds are produced, are highly concentrated in our oils as a result of this practice. This formulation promotes a healthy microbiome on the scalp and within each individual hair follicle. Each oil has been carefully chosen to provide the optimum environment for your hair to thrive in the presence of internal and external influences that threaten to destroy it. All of this is achieved without weighing down the hair and leaves it with a non-greasy natural texture when applied.
BLACK SEED OIL
Black seeds, also known as black caraway, black cumin, or kalonji, come from Nigella sativa, a small plant that grows in parts of Western Asia and Northern Africa. Cultures have used these seeds for natural remedies for thousands of years. A primary compound found in black seed oil is thymoquinone, which is known to have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits.
CASTOR OIL
The castor plant is native to the southern Mediterranean Basin, Eastern Africa, and India, although it is found in other tropical regions as well. Castor seed, which is derived from the plant, Ricinus communis, is the source of castor oil, which has a wide variety of uses. Ricinoleic acid, a kind of fatty acid with anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal properties when applied to hair or scalps, is a major component of castor oil.
ARGAN OIL
The kernels of the native Moroccan argan tree, Argania spinosa, are used to produce argan oil. Argan oil is rich in vitamin E, also known as tocopherol, a fat-soluble vitamin that acts as a powerful antioxidant. This vitamin helps minimize oxidative stressors generated by free radicals, as well as preventing UV damage and sealing in moisture to keep hair and skin soft and moisturized.
PUMPKIN SEED OIL
Pumpkins, or Cucurbita pepo, are one of the earliest cultivated plants, dating back to 7,000 to 5,500 BC. Pumpkins are native to North America and are commonly produced for food, but they have also been proven to offer a variety of other health benefits. They are high in squalene, an antioxidant that appears to protect hair and skin from UV and other types of radiation exposure. Furthermore, pumpkin seeds have a high concentration of omega-6 fatty acids, which encourage hair growth.
SAW PALMETTO EXTRACT
Serenoa repens, also known as saw palmetto, is native to the subtropical Southeastern United States. This plant has been proven in studies to possess chemicals that prevent androgenic alopecia, which is a form of hair loss commonly known as pattern baldness in both men and women. Higher levels of androgen hormones, such as dihydrotestosterone (DHT), are known to reduce the hair growth cycle which shortens and weakens hair strands over time. It is thought to work by suppressing the enzyme that produces DHT, an androgen-like hormone that is suspected to provoke this kind of hair loss.
ESSENTIAL OILS
Essential oil blends like tea tree cinnamon, jasmine, and vanilla function as cumulative catalysts, adding distinctive aromatic profiles to Orisha Drip. Furthermore, each of these essential oils has its own unique set of healthy hair attributes.
