Bonjour,
Cette huile a sauvée ma chevelure après un accouchement.
Elle m’a permise de ralentir puis stopper ma chute.
Puis la repousse a été immédiate.
Je la recommande pour les femmes allaitantes car elle ne contient aucun produits chimiques.
Merci bioriental.com pour votre article et vos precieux conseils.

Elle a sauvé mes cheveux suite à une chute très sévère avec des trous sur mon cuir chevelu.
Au bout de 3 appliquations ma chute c’est arrêtée net. mes trous se sont colmatés et j’ai plein de repousse partout.

Je suis troooooop contente. merci

Coucou!!

Cette huile est jute une pure merveille : je l’utilisais à la base pour ma chute de cheveux qui s’est arrêter en 3 application ; j’en revenais pas…
Puis je l’ai tester par hasard sur mes sourcils dégarnies: le résultat ne s’est pas fait attendre les trous se sont comblés et mon cil gauche (qui était court à cause des épilations à répétition par rapport à celui de droite) s’est allonger . je recommande à 2000%!!!!

Salut!!

Je tenais à partager mon expérience d’utilisation de l’huile de serpent: Elle a effectivement beaucoup de vertus pour les cheveux. Etant 100% naturelle, il n’y a aucune inquiétude à l’utiliser. Elle est également utilisée sur le visage mais perso, je n’ai pas essayer.
En tout les cas pour les cheveux elle est top: cheveux plus soyeux, disciplinés, plus résistant. Elle accélère la pousse d’une manière impressionnante.
