Ancient Hair & Scalp Botanical Oil — Fenugreek (Methi).
Infused fenugreek oil (Trigonella foenum-graecum) drawing on the full botanical profile of this revered Ayurvedic and Afro-Asian hair care ingredient. Fenugreek seeds are traditionally used in hair tonics and scalp treatments across Indian, Egyptian, and Middle Eastern beauty rituals and contain lecithin — a natural emollient — nicotinic acid (niacin) to support scalp circulation, and steroidal saponins valued in botanical hair care. A published clinical study examining fenugreek-based topical formulations reported improved scalp and hair conditioning outcomes in participants with self-reported hair concerns.
