Rosemary Oil
Rosemary oil or Rosmarinus officinalis leaf oil is extracted from the rosemary herb native to the Mediterranean region. Rosemary oil is full of antioxidants and is extensively used in skincare formulations to prevent and reverse the signs of skin aging.
Rosemary oil is considered to be helpful in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia (AGA). A study conducted in 2015 compared rosemary oil to minoxidil, a popular hair regrowth treatment. People facing DHT-related hair loss received either rosemary oil or minoxidil for 6 months. Study observed that both groups noticed considerable hair growth after 6 months of regular use. However, the group with rosemary oil saw no side effects in comparison to the group that used Minoxidil.
