I used this consistently on my scalp to support regrowth during postpartum shedding.

One of the oils I consistently used on my scalp during postpartum shedding. Castor oil is thick and very nourishing, so I focused it along thinning areas and my hairline to support healthier growth.

Rosemary oil became part of my scalp routine after postpartum hair loss started around 4–5 months. It helps stimulate the scalp and pairs well with carrier oils like castor oil for scalp massages.
