The benefits of nettle shampoo for healthy hair, scalp, and hair growth are plenty. This is not breaking news, Nettle has been used for thousands of years to grow shiny, beautiful hair.
Although not as popular now, if you asked your mums, aunties, and grandmas they would probably tell you about a nettle hair rinse (or maybe they still use it).
I’ve outlined a list of reasons why nettle shampoo as well as solid nettle shampoo bars have so many benefits for your hair and scalp and are so good for your hair health.
Let me I’ll dive right in.
Protects the hair from Free Radicals
Free radicals are harmful atoms produced by the body. Their number can rise significantly because of an unhealthy diet, environmental toxins, and aging.
Nettle leaves are packed full of antioxidants like carotenoids, flavonoids, and vitamin C which act as a shield and protect hair from damaging free radicals.
Treats Hair Loss
Consuming nettle tea or capsules can help to treat hair loss internally, while a topically applied Nettle oil and Nettle shampoo work to combat hair loss externally.
Nettle leaf is known to inhibit the formation of DHT – the androgen hormone that causes male and female baldness.
Helps hair Re-growth
Nettle contains high levels of anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties which help to protect our scalp from damage and stimulate new hair growth.
Using nettle shampoo and hair rinses (cold nettle tea poured over washed hair) result in the re-growth of lost hair. They can also help to restore the original hair colour 😳
I’ve tried the shampoo bar and am totally impressed with how much lather is made with so few rubs. It’s very different to previous bars I’ve tried.
I love how easy it washes out of the hair. Thanks again for the nettle beauties.

Nettle Shampoo Relieves Itchy Scalp & Dandruff
The most noticeable benefit is the reduction of a dry, itchy scalp as well as dandruff.
Nettle’s anti-inflammatory properties in the nettle-infused oil, transformed into nettle shampoo bars with nourishing oils and butters. Together with hair-loving essential oils they effectively work to hydrate and moisturise the scalp and eliminate dandruff.
Leaves hair Glossy & Healthy
Nettle leaves are also rich in minerals like iron, magnesium, and zinc, so the hair follicles get a great boost. The leaves contain high levels of sulphur and silica helping to make hair healthier and shinier.
Those who find their hair limp, prone to oiliness, and/or have to wash their hair often to keep it clean and bouncy can benefit from Nettle shampoo which adds shine to dull hair. Nettle is a natural and safe way to stop hair loss and make hair glossy and healthy.
I’ve been using the Hair oil and Nettle Shampoo now for 3 months. With naturally thick and curly hair, there are not many shampoo bars that can cut through all the hair to help my damaged scalp.
This shampoo bar has been amazing!!
I now hardly ever condition my hair as the lovely natural oils in the shampoo leave my hair glossy for days.

Stimulates Blood Circulation
Nettle oil and shampoo enhance blood supply to the scalp and hair follicles so your roots get a better supply of nutrients and oxygen.
Nettle Shampoo Strengthens the Hair
Nettle is rich in silica and iron which, apart from encouraging hair growth, works to improve hair health by strengthening the hair shaft thus avoiding split ends.
Love this Nettle Shampoo bar, it smells great and lathers well. Hair is shiny and feels fuller.

So that’s why Nettle Shampoo is so good for your hair!
There you have it, if you’re looking to transform your scalp and hair, put down the run-of-the-mill hair products, and make a swap for nettle shampoo.
Just make sure that the products you’re using contain real nettle oil or extract, which will be listed in the ingredients.
I harvest the nettles by hand, tie them into bundles, and hang them up to air dry. I infuse the dried leaves in organic extra virgin olive oil. This potent nettle oil is then blended with other hair-loving butters and essential oils to produce my Nettle Shampoo Bar.
Why do I want you do know all of this?
I do this because I know the amazing benefits that Nettle has on hair and scalp health, and I want you to know too. Happy customers who’ve been using my Nettle oil and Shampoo bars confirm this.
Nettle Hair Oil is a super complimentary product to our shampoo bars, to be applied to the scalp and hair before washing. Leave on for 30 minutes, or ideally overnight, before washing out with the Shampoo Bar.
