Aloe vera in hair refers to the topical application of aloe vera gel or extract to the hair and scalp. In ancient Egypt, aloe vera was revered for its medicinal properties and was used as a hair treatment to promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.
Modern research has confirmed the efficacy of aloe vera for hair, attributing its benefits to its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties. These properties have been found to moisturize, soften, and strengthen the hair, while promoting a healthy scalp environment.
