The benefits of plum vegetable oil for hair.

Due to its content of essential fatty acids, this vegetable oil revitalises dehydrated and dry hair, providing it with shine. By penetrating the hair fibres, the fatty acids are able to limit water evaporation. They form a protective film to maintain the hair's hydration. Furthermore, the oleic acid or omega 9, which is present in large quantities in plum oil, is a lipid that is part of the composition of sebum, a substance naturally secreted by the body to counteract skin and hair dryness. To avoid dull and brittle hair, a sufficient production of sebum is necessary. Oleic acid thus stimulates the production of sebum by the sebaceous glands and fights against the dryness of the hair that leads to its breakage.

To enjoy its benefits, simply incorporate a few drops of this oil into your regular shampoo. However, some hair care products are already enriched with plum oil, such as masks, conditioners, or even oils.

Hair ageing is characterised by the emergence of grey and white hairs, as well as the weakening of hair fibres, which promotes hair loss. While this is a natural phenomenon, it can be significantly accelerated by oxidation reactions due to pollution, exposure to UV rays, smoking, etc. Rich in vitamin E, known for its antioxidant power, plum oil protects the hair from free radicals and oxidative stress. The tocopherol neutralises free radicals to prevent them from causing damage and to maintain good hair quality for as long as possible.
