A good hair oil can change overall hair health with consistent use.Oiling has been proven to be beneficial and has been passed down since ages. More recently oils enriched with onions and curry leaves prove to be more effective in combating hair problems.

Packaging:

The oil comes in cylindrical outer packaging with tin lids which I find very functional. The actual packaging is a see through plastic bottle with a golden lid on top of it. It comes in a perfectly sealed way and there's no chance of leakage. The hair oil even comes with an applicator for an easy and non messy application.

My experience using the Seer Secrets Onion hair oil:

I have been suffering from extreme hairfall since the past few weeks but this oil worked like a savior. Of course you just can't expect instant results in just one use. I could notice some significant  changes after a month of religious use. 

The Seer Secrets Restorative Scalp oil is enriched with many essential oils and natural ingredients which makes it so special and worth the amount. They don't use any chemicals or toxic ingredients that can backfire and cause more hairfall and damage so it makes this oil a very safe choice if you are suffering from hairfall and frizzy hair problems like me. 

Now talking about whether this oil reduces dandruff or not. I couldn't see much difference in that respect. My dandruff issues are still evidently present.

• Reduces hairfall with consistent use
• Combats frizzy hair
• Cruelty free
• No sulphates and parabens are present in the formulation 
• Authentic Ayurvedic formulation
