Why horsetail is a secret tip for healthy hair

Warum Schachtelhalm ein Geheimtipp für gesunde Haare ist

Natural active ingredients are becoming increasingly important in modern hair care – especially plant-based ingredients with traditional uses. One of these is horsetail (Equisetum arvense), also known as common horsetail. But what exactly makes horsetail so valuable for hair and scalp? And how can its effects be specifically utilized? In the following article, you will gain well-founded insights into the properties of this medicinal plant – and get to know an innovative care line that harnesses its power.

Horsetail – a time-tested active ingredient with modern effects

Horsetail is one of the oldest plant species in the world and has been a fixed part of herbal medicine for centuries. Particularly remarkable is its high content of organically bound silica (silicon) – a trace element that plays a central role in the health of hair, nails, and connective tissue.

The main benefits of horsetail in hair care:

ü  Strengthening hair structure: Silicon contributes to strengthening hair fibers and can counteract brittle or dry hair.

ü  Promotion of hair growth: By stimulating microcirculation in the scalp, horsetail can positively influence hair growth.

ü  Regulation of sebum production: The astringent properties help regulate oily scalp and restore balance.

ü  Care for irritated scalp: The anti-inflammatory and antioxidant ingredients soothe the scalp and can prevent dandruff formation.

Regular use of hair care products with horsetail extract can thus lead to a healthier scalp and visibly more vital hair – in a completely natural way.
