Highlights:

• Brahmi for hair improves root nutrition and reduces breakage.

• Hibiscus for hair enhances shine and supports healthy growth.

Healthy curls start at the roots and three natural powerhouses are here to help: nettle, brahmi, and hibiscus. 

These ingredients have been trusted for centuries in Ayurvedic and herbal care and now take center stage in the XO Curls range, particularly in their All Day Definition Gel, Leave-In Conditioner, and Hydrating Shampoo & Conditioner. 

When used together, nettle for hair, brahmi for hair, and hibiscus for hair can create the ultimate root-to-tip transformation for curly hair types.

Nettle for Hair: Strength from Within 

Nettle (Urtica dioica) is an herbal remedy rich in silica, sulfur, and iron. Applied to the scalp, nettle improves circulation, which in turn helps nourish and strengthen hair follicles. 

XO Curls All Day Definition Gel includes nettle for hair alongside flax seed, avocado, and argan oils making it not just a styling product but also a long-term scalp health booster.

Used consistently, nettle for hair can:

• Reduce scalp inflammation

• Strengthen hair at the root

• Help minimize shedding and thinning

For curly-haired individuals, nettle for hair also helps balance moisture and reduce breakage, a common concern due to the natural dryness of curly strands.

Brahmi for Hair: Ayurvedic Elixir for Scalp Nourishment 

Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) is known for its calming, revitalizing properties and is especially beneficial in treating hair fall caused by stress or inflammation. 

Brahmi for hair works by delivering antioxidants and amino acids to the scalp and strands, making the hair stronger and more resilient. It also enhances collagen production, which is crucial for healthy hair growth.

XO Curls Leave-In Conditioner contains brahmi for hair as a hero ingredient. When applied post-wash, this product helps to:

• Reduce split ends

• Lock in moisture with olive squalane and argan oil

• Strengthen the strand from within

Hibiscus for Hair: Flower-Powered Growth and Shine 

Hibiscus (Hibiscus rosa-sinensis) is one of the most effective herbs for promoting hair growth and controlling hair fall. 

It contains vitamin C and amino acids that stimulate blood circulation to the scalp. Hibiscus for hair is a core ingredient in both the XO Curls Hydrating Shampoo and Conditioner.

Hibiscus for hair:

• Stimulates dormant hair follicles

• Adds a natural shine

• Conditions and softens hair

The natural acids in hibiscus help cleanse the scalp without stripping it of natural oils, perfect for curly hair care routines that prioritize hydration.
