Clove BlackSeed Serum : DHT Blocker For Extreme Hair Growth
Ingredients required
(Makes about 50 mL—enough for 6 to 8 scalp treatments)
- 4 Tbsp pumpkin-seed oil – nourishes roots and naturally slows DHT
- 2 Tbsp jojoba oil – feels like your own sebum and seals moisture
- 1 Tbsp cold-pressed black-seed (kalonji) oil – calms irritation and boosts growth
- 15 drops clove essential oil – the main DHT-blocking, germ-fighting hero
- 10 drops rosemary essential oil – wakes up lazy follicles and improves circulation
- 1 Tbsp strong green-tea infusion, cooled – rich in EGCG, another DHT buster
- 1 Tbsp fresh aloe-vera gel – instantly soothes and hydrates the scalp
- 1 vitamin E capsule (400 IU) – powerful antioxidant and natural preservative
All of these are easy to find in Indian grocery shops or local pharmacies.
Procedure
- Sterilise a 60 mL amber dropper bottle in hot water and let it dry.
- Combine the base oils: pour pumpkin-seed, jojoba and black-seed oils into the bottle.
- Add the extras: pierce the vitamin E capsule and squeeze it in, then drop in clove and rosemary oils.
- Blend the water phase: whisk aloe-vera gel into the cooled green-tea; funnel this mix into the bottle.
- Shake hard for about a minute. A little separation is normal—just shake before each use.
- Store in a cool, dark spot (refrigerating stretches shelf life to 4–6 weeks).
Instructions
- Patch-test first: dab a tiny bit behind your ear and wait 24 hours to rule out sensitivity.
- On wash day, towel-dry clean hair and part it into sections.
- Apply two full droppers (≈ 4 mL) of serum, massaging the scalp for three minutes—focus on thinning areas.
- Leave on for 1–2 hours (overnight under a soft cap if comfortable).
- Rinse with a mild, sulphate-free shampoo and condition as usual.
- Use 2–3 times a week for the first 12 weeks, then twice weekly to maintain gains.
- Pro tip: Warm the bottle in a mug of hot water for 30 seconds before use—heat boosts penetration and that pleasant clove tingle.
Benefits
What it does | Why it works |
---|---|
Tames DHT, the hair-shrinking hormone | Eugenol (clove), phytosterols (pumpkin-seed) and EGCG (green tea) all slow the enzyme that makes DHT. |
Wakes up resting follicles | Pumpkin-seed and rosemary oils have been shown to increase hair count and thickness in studies. |
Soothes itchy, flaky scalp | Thymoquinone in black-seed oil plus aloe vera calm inflammation and fight scalp microbes. |
Shields roots from damage | Vitamin E and the antioxidants in clove, green tea and pumpkin protect follicles from free-radical stress. |
Locks in moisture & shine | Jojoba mimics natural sebum, smoothing the hair cuticle for softer, glossier strands. |
Stick with the routine, eat a balanced diet, manage stress, and you can expect noticeably denser, healthier-looking hair in about three months—without the sting or side-effects of harsh synthetic treatments.
