Urtica Dioica (Nettle) Extract / Urtica Dioica (Nettle) Leaf Extract

Urtica Dioica (Nettle) Extract / Leaf Extract contains many nutrients and a lot of them act as antioxidants and hence help to defend damages of skin and hair caused by free radicals. Due to its capability to reduce inflammation and its wound and burn healing, antibacterial, cleansing, detoxification, anti-dandruff and sebum regulation properties we use it in some of our shampoos, conditioners and scalp treatments. It helps with greasy hair and irritated scalp. It improves hair feel and makes the hair looking health and shiny. Another benefit is its ability to counter alopecia or hair loss.
