🌿 Why It Works
- Aloe Vera: Rich in enzymes and vitamins (A, C, E, and B12) that repair dead skin cells on the scalp, reduce dandruff, and boost follicle health.
- Chia Seeds: Packed with omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and zinc — they help strengthen strands, reduce breakage, and promote thicker hair growth.
