Sheer Skinz Ayurvedic Bhringraj Hair Oil Review

Today one or the other person in every family is facing some kind of hair problems. Be it hair fall, premature graying, split ends or unhealthy scalp; you will find people discussing their hair issues seeking effective solutions. One of the primary hair care regimen known till date stresses upon head massage with appropriate hair oil. There are many 'fancy' hair oils available at stores these days that claim to address these issues, but me and my family still trust traditional ayurvedic oils for its purity. At present, I'm using Sheer Skinz Ayurvedic Bhringraj Oil which is 100% herbal preparation. So lets have an overview of the same in today's post. 

Product Details:
Sheer Skinz Ayurvedic Bhringraj Oil is a complete Ayurvedic formula, which is prepared in Sesame Oil using natural herbs. Its one of the best herbal treatments for hair loss and dandruff. You need to apply oil to the scalp and gently massage it for about 10 minutes. Potent herbs in this herbal oil provide nourishment to the scalp and hair follicles as well to counter hair fall. It naturally strengthens roots of the hair and helps to naturally grow hair. All herbs are blended in right formula to offer effective cure for infections, hair loss and split ends. It improves blood flow and stimulates hair follicles to ensure natural growth.
Key ingredients:
Various extracts of Bhringraj, Amla, Brahmi, Haritaki, Baheda, Chandan, Mulethi, Nagarmutha, Bariyara, Heena, Padmakh and Sesame Oil.  
Bhringraj & Bramhi oil stops hair fall, premature greying and dandruff.
Amla & Henna works as natural conditioners, provides shine & volume.
Mulethi is natural blood purifiers and has antifungal, antimicrobial properties 
Price: Rs 135 for 100 ml. 

Color, Texture & Fragrance: The Sheer Skinz Bringraj hair oil is a deep brown colored oil that looks even darker in the bottle. The consistency of the fluid is just the appropriate, neither runny nor thick. The oil smells purely herbal that may trouble sensitive noses. But for me its a calming fragrance that soothes me.
Packaging: The oil is packed in a transparent plastic bottle in square shape. The black flip cap on the bottle goes well with the oil color ;) The label on the bottle has required details printed on it in white font color. You receive a new bottle sealed with cling sheet and housed in black cardboard box. 
Usage Experience:
My usual hair care regimen finds an oiling session on weekly chart over the weekend. But at times, I add-on one more massage session if any weekday is a holiday and I'm able to spend my day at home relaxing. My preference is leaving the hair oil overnight on my scalp so that it drinks the nutrients and offers my hair best nourishment. 
I'm applying Sheez Skinz Bringraj oil for some time now and the first thing I could notice was softness of my hair after just two-three uses. The oil is not extra-greasy, but also not completely non-sticky. It penetrates very well into the follicles and scalp. But I cannot step out wearing that strongly fragranced oil on my hair. (though its a matter of personal choice). Using this oil religiously ensures trapping flyaway and strengthens the roots. The dryness of scalp is remarkably cured and my hair seem restoring the natural texture. Though the enhancement of hair growth is yet to be acknowledged, since its not a miraculous device to work in a short span of time. But overall, its a complete hair tonic for preventing and controlling hair problems arising out of our modern lifestyle or heredity. 
Sheer Skinz Ayurvedic Bhringraj Oil goes beyond just oiling your hair, but manifold promotes good health of hair shaft and scalp when incorporated in your hair care routine.

http://www.bbeautilicious.com/dabur-vatika-enriched-olive-hair-oil-review-giveaway/

I found the idea quite interesting and could not resist participating in WEEK 1 itself and luckily won the same :)

I received my prize hamper quite soon after winning and it consisted of 2 packs (100ml, 200ml) of Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil...



So, here i enter PHASE 2 becuase i've been using this oil for last few days and will be reviewing the oil today ....

An effective hair oil is the most wannable product for everyone who is in love with his/her hair like i'm ;)

Other than these 3, some more ingredients of good old times have also been mixed well for reaping more beneficial properties of each like ...

Quantity: 200 ml
Price: Rs.120/-

My Experience with Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil:

Let me begin with a confession...I had been a gal with gifted dark long tresses that i used to call my CROWNING BEAUTY. There was set hair care regime that i used to follow without a miss. But for past few years, I have NEGLECTED my  hair to greater extent due to my overburdened schedule. I knew my hair demand much needed food for them, but i've been careless.

But, I'm feeling blessed that i started using Dabur Vatika Hair oil and said GOOD BYE to my hair problems.
The oil is in green color and of quite running consistency, so i found it easy to apply. As i applied it on my undernourished hair with my fingertips in circular motion, it gave a cooling effect to my dry scalp. For the next few minutes, I could smell its strong fragrance (might not be the same case with everyone) which was a bit uneasy for me due to my sensitive nose. But gradually as i left the oil on my hair for few minutes, i was comfortable n relaxed with no such irritation in my nose.


The oil is quite light and non-greasy on application;  so i was really pleased to imagine that on a certain working day, I would be able to just rub a little olive oil on my fingers and run them through my hair after styling for smoother non-frizzy hair :)
You can see how my oily  hair looked like BEFORE and AFTER oiling --


I decided to keep the oil on my hair overnight and to wash it the next day. Here I want to make a point that I always use fresh water (even in winters) to wash my hair to avoid getting flaky scalp. Since this oil is less greasy than usual mustartd oil or coconut oil, it washed off without much effort leaving my hair more voluminous, healthy-looking and lusturous. Infact I felt no need of conditioning my hair after head bath.

After its regular use for last few weeks, I can claim that this olive oil rich in vitamins E and antioxidants seals the moisture in my hair and minimizes dandruff considerably. The hair fall rate has dipped down pretty well and my comb comes out neat without many broken hair from roots.

Talking about the packaging, the oil comes in a transparent plastic bottle with Flip-Open kind of cap which is not lockable tightly. So I don't think that this bottle is travel-friendly. I've been careful to press the cap properly, still a drop or two leaked out somehow.

I even tried to use this oil to get rid of my severe headache few days back in lukewarm state followed by head massage. And it worked wonders.


Pros:
Completely Budget Friendly
Harmonious Ingredients
Easy to Apply and Wash off
Easily Available
Relatively Non-Sticky, Yet Equally Nourishing
Makes Hair More Pliable
No Adverse Effect on Hair

Cons:
Packaging Not Travel Friendly

Conclusively, my hair have found a worthy companion in Dabur Vatika Enriched Olive Hair Oil and I'm more than satisfied with the outcome. So it will be surely in my shopping list next time onwards. :)
I'm looking forward to get those similar heart-warming compliments for my hair from family and friends in coming days that will boost my confidence once again...

Happy Hair Care!!
Shilpa Bindlish :)
