Hemp Seed Oil Gives You High Hair

Hemp seed oil is legal, so let's get that out of the way. In fact, hemp oil is now commonly used in a number of beauty treatments---shampoos, hairsprays, conditioners, etc. It's got good properties in it, that can strengthen your hair. And don't worry, your hair will get high in volume, but not high off the THC, because there is not enough of it in there to get you stoned.

Marijuana and industrial hemp both come from Cannabis sativa L, but the plants are cultivated in very different ways. Industrial hemp makes use of the seeds and fiber, whereas pot plants are harvested for their flowering tops and leaves.

When hemp seed oil is extracted from the hemp seed itself, it comprises 35% of the total seed weight. It is full of essential fatty acids.

Naturelle Hemp Haircare, distributed by the Zotos beauty company, offers a lovely line of hemp seed oil hair styling products. I found them at:


Naturelle features: Hemp hydrating shampoo, Hemp hydrating conditioner, Hemp volumizing shampoo, Hemp volumizing conditioner, Hemp Firm Hold Shaping Spray. and my fav:

Naturelle Hemp Volumizing Root Lifter ($6.49, 8.5 oz., aerosol can). This stuff rocks! I'm always going on and on about big hair and big volume. The can is shaded a pretty green with a pot, er, hemp leaf on the front.

The root lifter gives you "vital amino acids and proteins to nourish and reinforce your hair against damage." Plus you get volume and thickness, shine, style memory, and a special humidity resistance factor, all-in-one.

You can use the hemp seed root lifter on towel-dried hair or dry hair. Just shake, spray at roots, blow dry, air dry, or use a diffuser for maximum fullness.

Why not try a product that truly comes from nature, where everything, including the seeds and fiber, can be formulated into such wonderful beauty treatments.
