Peppermint oil with any carrier oil like castor oil,almond oil,Argan oil promotes hair growth by increasing scalp circulation. Also, frequency of oiling the hair must be individualised according to your hair/ scalp type. Persons with oily or greasy hair/ scalp must avoid frequent oil application to hair while persons with dry hair may safely use oil for mosturizing the scalp.
