Shifa E Ganjpan/skallighetolja

I've been using this on my thinning crown for about six weeks and there's finally some fuzz coming through where it was smooth before. The oil itself is heavier than I expected, so I only apply it at night and wash it out in the morning.

The herbal blend has a strong, earthy smell that took me a few days to get used to, but I’ve been massaging it into my scalp every night and the thinning patches around my temples feel less bare already. It absorbs quickly without leaving my hair greasy, which is a huge plus for an oil.

Three weeks in and I'm already seeing tiny dark specks appear along my hairline where it's been smooth for years. The oil has that strong herbal smell you'd expect, but it absorbs fast enough that I only use it at night. It gives me hope more than anything else I've tried.
