can i apply neem oil directly on hair - #25906
I am really struggling with my dry scalp and hair lately. I've read that neem oil could help, but I'm kinda confused. Can I apply neem oil directly on hair? I mean, I’ve had this awful itchiness and some flaking that just won’t go away, and a friend mentioned neem being amazing for those things. I actually tried using some hair masks but nothing seems to stick. My sister said I should "dilute” it because it could be too strong if used full strength? But then, my neighbor swears by applying neem oil directly! That got me thinking... which way is better? Last week, I was at the store, and I saw neem oil and almost bought it, but I hesitated because I didn't want to mess things up even more. Honestly, my hair feels like straw, and I’m getting desperate here. Can I apply neem oil directly on hair for dryness or is that a no-go? Would love any tips!!
