1. Stimulates Hair Growth

   • Rosemary: Some human studies suggest rosemary essential oil can promote hair growth. In one randomized trial, rosemary oil showed similar efficacy to 2% minoxidil over 6 months. Amla: It contains antioxidants, and traditional usage suggests it supports hair follicle health. Improves Scalp Circulation

   • Rosemary is believed to enhance microcirculation in the scalp, allowing follicles to get more nutrients. 

   • Better blood flow can support a healthier scalp environment for growth.

2. Strengthens Hair & Reduces Breakage

   • Amla is rich in vitamin C, amino acids, and polyphenols. These can help nourish the hair shaft, making it stronger and less prone to breakage. 

   • This helps with brittle or dry hair.

3. Antioxidant & Anti-inflammatory Effects

   • Amla has strong antioxidant properties (thanks to phenolic compounds), which help protect scalp and follicles from oxidative stress.

   • Rosemary also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial effects, which can soothe the scalp and reduce irritation. 

4. Reduces Hair Fall

   • Through a combination of follicle stimulation (rosemary) and strengthening (amla), this blend may help reduce excessive hair fall over time.

   • Some studies on rosemary oils have shown reduced hair shedding in clinical settings. Improves Hair Density & Thickness

   • In a clinical trial, rosemary-based formulations increased hair density and thickness significantly.

   • Over time, this can make hair look fuller.

5. Helps with Premature Greying (Anecdotally)

   • Amla is traditionally used in Ayurveda to delay greying. Some users report slowed greying with regular use. 

   • Scientific evidence is more limited, but its antioxidant profile supports scalp health, which may contribute to pigment retention.

6. Balances Scalp Oil / Sebum

   • Amla has a somewhat astringent effect, which can help regulate sebum production on the scalp. 

   • This benefit is good for people with oily scalps or those prone to buildup.

7. Reduces Dandruff / Scalp Infections

   • Because of the antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties of both herbs, this combo may help with dandruff or mild scalp inflammation.  

8. Natural & Gentle Alternative

   • For people looking for more “natural” hair care options, this blend is often better tolerated than strong pharmaceutical treatments. For example, rosemary oil has been reported to cause less scalp irritation compared to minoxidil in some trials. 

Things to Be Cautious About / Limitations

• Need to Dilute Rosemary: Rosemary essential oil is potent. It should generally be diluted in a carrier oil (like coconut, olive, or sesame) to avoid scalp irritation. 

• Patch Test Recommended: Before using extensively, do a patch test to ensure you don’t have sensitivity.

• Time to See Results: Herbal treatments usually take time. Studies showing benefits often run for months (e.g., 6 months for rosemary vs. minoxidil). 

• Not a Guaranteed “Fix”: While there's promising evidence, it's not a miracle cure. Results vary — some people respond well, others less so.

• Quality Matters: The effectiveness depends a lot on the quality of the oils (pure extracts, correct processing). Cheap or impure oils may not give the same benefits.

• Limited Studies on Amla: Unlike rosemary, amla has fewer rigorous human clinical trials for hair growth. A lot of its benefits come from traditional use or preliminary research. 

• Use Alongside Other Treatments Carefully: If you're using other hair loss treatments (e.g., minoxidil), consult a dermatologist before mixing or replacing.

How to Use It Effectively

• Warm a little of the oil blend in your palms.

• Massage gently into the scalp for a few minutes to boost circulation.

• Leave it in: You can leave it on for at least 1 hour, or even overnight (depending on the product). 

• Wash out with Botanic keratin shampoo  a mild shampoo afterward.

• Use regularly (e.g., 2–3 times a week), but don’t overdo it.
