“Jadi Buti” literally translates from Hindi to “herbs” or “medicinal herbs.” So, a “Jadi Buti Hair Oil Mix” refers to a hair oil blend that is infused with or contains a variety of traditional herbs known for their beneficial properties for hair and scalp health.

These hair oil mixes are deeply rooted in Ayurvedic and traditional Indian hair care practices. Instead of just a single herb, the strength of a Jadi Buti mix lies in the synergistic effect of multiple herbs working together.

Key Characteristics and Benefits:

• Multi-Herbal Formulation: The defining feature is the inclusion of several dried or fresh herbs. These herbs are typically steeped in a base oil (like coconut oil, sesame oil, or almond oil) over time, allowing their active compounds to infuse into the oil.
• Traditional/Ayurvedic Roots: Many Jadi Buti mixes are based on ancient Ayurvedic recipes, which have documented the benefits of specific herbs for hair for thousands of years.
• Comprehensive Hair Care: Because of the blend of herbs, a Jadi Buti oil aims to provide multiple benefits:
  • Promotes Hair Growth: Herbs like Bhringraj, Brahmi, and Amla are often included to stimulate follicles and encourage new hair growth.
  • Reduces Hair Fall: Ingredients that strengthen roots and improve scalp circulation help minimize shedding.
  • Prevents Premature Graying: Amla, Bhringraj, and Curry Leaves are often used for their properties in maintaining hair pigment.
  • Nourishes and Conditions: Many herbs and the base oils themselves are highly moisturizing, leaving hair soft, shiny, and manageable.
  • Combats Dandruff and Scalp Issues: Herbs like Neem, Tea Tree (if added), and Amla have anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties to maintain a healthy scalp.
  • Strengthens Hair Strands: Proteins and nutrients from the herbs help fortify the hair, reducing breakage and improving elasticity.
• Natural Ingredients: The primary focus is on natural herbs, often minimizing synthetic additives.
• DIY or Commercial Variants:
  • DIY: Many people create their own Jadi Buti oil by purchasing dried herb mixes and infusing them in a base oil at home. This allows for customization.
  • Commercial: Numerous brands sell pre-made Jadi Buti hair oils, where the infusion process has already been done. Ours is the dried Jadi Buti mix for home infusion.
