TLDR Aroma essential oils in shampoo may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
The study examined the effects of an aroma shampoo containing essential oils (Lavender, Juniper Berry, Cypress, Peppermint, and Cedarwood) on hair condition over 4 weeks. The experimental group (15 people) using the aroma shampoo showed a significant increase in hair density and number in the occipital area, while the control group (15 people) using general shampoo experienced a significant decrease in hair number and thickness in the parietal area. These findings suggest that aroma essential oils in shampoo may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
