As a Salon Owner and Master Stylist since 1990, Denise E. Hewitt is also a Certified Trichologist. Her passion is to keep the health of the hair and scalp a primary focus. With a holistic approach, she recommends Pure Castor Oil.

There are so many benefits of pure castor oil: As it is anti-inflammatory and anti-fungal, you can use it on rough skin or as a carrier oil to mix with essential oils or even lotions. Castor oil fights free radicals which helps with anti-aging and makes wrinkles appear softer and reduces puffiness under the eyes. Its hydrating benefits lubricate the hair and scalp, which prevents breakage. Other benefits include wound healing (from ulcers, burns and surgical wounds). It is also a known laxative and denture cleaner that kills bacteria and fungus.

There are so many benefits! Yet, beware of diluted or cheap brands. Denise E. Hewitt highly recommends Emily’s Pure Jamaican Black Castor Oil.
