Does Emu oil really help with hair growth?

Robin: there is no large scale clinical trial available, and this would be necessary to answer your question unambiguously. There is plenty of testimonials from clients saying that it did help. However, it's important to note that hair loss can have many causes, and maybe emu oil helps in some cases but not in others. We are pretty conservative as a company, so we only claim moisturizing properties. The rest is for customers to experiment with. You may return the product for a refund for any reason, so it doesn't cost much to experiment! Thank you.

YES! My hair was thinning- I'm a black woman and my hair doesn't grow very fast but I got the ShenMin, had my hair braided under extentions for a month & had almost 2 inches of THICK new growth after using this. I actually went natural and now have a Head full of thick hair I use this faithfully- the only thing is because its a vitamin its best to take RIGHT before when you eat otherwise it will make you snack happy.

Absolutely! Just mix your essential oil with the carrier oil of your choice such as jojoba, castor, or another. I would probably mix 1 oz carrier oil to 5-7 drops of peppermint oil (adjust as necessary) to stimulate blood flow and promote hair growth. I would suggest using at night because of the lingering scent which will fade by morning.

The emu oil will have some effect, but will not rid your body of scar tissue. What it will do is keep your burn deeply moisturized so that your burns doesn't become dry and starts to crack.

Yes, Rosemary Essential Oil can help hair growth as well as the helping the hair you already have. Rosemary oil stimulates your scalp and promotes hair growth. Peppermint oil does this as well. You have to add the rosemary oil to a carrier oil, such as Jojoba, olive, or coconut because it is undiluted and too strong to just put on the scalp. I recommend adding 6 drops of rosemary oil per 1 ounce of carrier oil inside an applicator bottle. Wet hair with warm water add mixture to scalp massaging it in. Leave on for 20 minutes and then shampoo and condition as you normally would. As with anything it will take time so be patient.

Per Ask/eHow - 'Emu oil is extracted from the fat of the emu after it has been processed for food.' Unfortunately there is no other way to refine it as a byproduct

Yes every penny! My hair was thinning because if over processing. Since using this oil my hair grew about 2in in one month period. Keep a healthy hair regimen and you will see results. I love this oil and just ordered the 8oz refill bottle. A little goes a long way so you don't need to drench your hair. Just drops on scalp, massage hair and wrap in silk scarf. I use this oil 3 times a week. Happy growing!

Nothing actually grows your hair. How fast ur hair grows is determined by genetics. It does seal the moisture in your ends, helping you to retain length. It is good for scalp massages also. Hope this helps!!!! I use it!!!!!

I use it for hair growth and have dabbed a bit on my eyebrows that were all but gone and I have seen hair growth. For my hair I mix it with Jamaican castor oil and my edges are growing in nicely.

Yes! There are specific oils, herbs, etc, that CAN stimulate hair growth. Look at those unnatural, black market products! I, myself, make hair growth serums and such with great success and a continuing customer following. I've been told I made products (with all natural oils, mind you) that have grown hair in places people thought would be bald forever (I specialize in eyelashes and brows). So to those who doubt this product, do some research first. I've known of this company for a while through other venues and nothing but rave reviews.

I don't know about the effects that Emu Oil has on stretch marks. I know they use it on burn victims to help heal their skin as Emu Oil is readily absorbed into the skin. I have heard that 100% Shea Butter prevents and minimizes stretch marks, though. You can find it online. Shea Butter is also good for burns. But, Emu Oil is also an amazing oil if it is pure. This brand seems to work as well as some of the other "Gold" brands for less money.

Yes! I found that it not only works for hair growth but it thickens the hair as well. Good Luck!

I read somewhere it is made from the fat layers below the skin of the emu. It really helps if you have dry scalp.

Dear Tim, thank you for your questions. CAYENNE Hair Growth shampoo is made with botanical ingredients and is not medicine. It was designed to stimulate existing hair follicles that are healthy enough to produce hair, and it will only work on follicles that can produce hair. If you are currently on certain meds which causes hair loss as side effect, we strongly recommend to consult with your doctor before using any hair loss treatment.

After reviewing several sites to research natural alternatives for moisturizing the skin, I found emu oil mentioned often. It is also the second ingredient in a lash enhancer I have been using with very positive results. Pro Emu Oil was highly recommended and I have been using it as part of a blend with other natural oils for my face and I love it. I asked a co-worker from Australia about it (emu oil) and he said it is used for many things (insect bites, for scars after the initial healing process, hair, etc.).

I don't think it's worth the money...I was allergic to it. I'm now just using natural EMU oil on my face and LOVE it. No chemicals, no allergies, no clogged pores...just great!

Emu oil is made from the fat of the emu bird. The emu has a large collection of fat on its back. When the bird is slaughtered, the fat is collected, and purified. It has many health benefits. May be used for slowing aging of the skin, moisturizing hair, easing pain of joints, and many other health benefits.
