Onion’s odor can be persistent. Rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water and using a fragrant shampoo or essential oils can help reduce the smell.
3. Do I have to use fresh onion juice every time?
Fresh juice is more potent. If you want to store it, keep it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days, but freshness and effectiveness may diminish over time.
4. Is this method scientifically proven to grow hair faster?
There is no conclusive scientific evidence that onion and Vaseline can dramatically speed up hair growth. However, anecdotal evidence suggests it may help maintain scalp health and reduce breakage, indirectly aiding the appearance of thicker, fuller hair.
5. Could this remedy damage my hair?
When used in moderation and rinsed out properly, it’s unlikely to damage hair. The main risk is scalp irritation from onion or buildup from Vaseline if not washed thoroughly.
Conclusion
Using onion juice and Vaseline as part of a hair care regimen can potentially provide some scalp-nourishing and hair-protective benefits. While it’s not realistic to grow 2 cm of hair per day, this DIY approach may help strengthen your existing strands, reduce breakage, and support an overall healthy scalp environment. Always keep your expectations realistic, follow a balanced diet, and consider consulting a healthcare professional or trichologist for personalized advice if you’re experiencing significant hair loss or scalp issues.
