The chemical structure of jojoba oil is similar to skin sebum (sebum), which is the natural skin oil produced by the sebaceous glands. Sebum moisturizes the scalp and helps reduce hair loss. Jojoba oil easily penetrates hair follicles, dissolves clumps and frees follicles for hair growth. It also acts as an antiseptic, as it treats bacteria on the scalp. Jojoba oil is an effective remedy for dry and flaky scalp.
