Carrot Benefits For Skin & Hair

Most of the information we remember about carrots and their nutritional properties relates to our eyes, but what about their effect on our hair and skin? Read on to find out why carrots are essential for a healthy personal care routine.

How Healthy Are Carrots, Anyway?

Carrots contain a whopping 334% of your daily value of vitamin A in just one 100 gram serving. Vitamin A is important for keeping your immune system, vision, and reproductive system in good working order, but its antioxidant properties make it essential for healthy skin. Because antioxidants fend off dangerous free radicals (toxins that our bodies are exposed to through our environment and diet), the vitamin A found in carrots helps provide an extra layer of protection for your skin and hair.

Carrots And Skin Care

Carrot oil, extracted from the seeds or roots of the plant, is used in the making of many beauty products. Carrot oil contains vitamins that are essential for great hair and skin: vitamin E, and (of course) vitamin A. Vitamin E is vital for healthy skin, eyes, and immune system functions, and, when paired with vitamin A, packs a powerful punch in defending your body from environmental damage.

Carrots and Hair Care

Using carrot oil to clean and condition the hair is said to be very effective, though some of this is purely anecdotal. New research suggests, however, that certain conditions caused by a dry scalp can be alleviated by a regular carrot oil treatment, due to the substance's antifungal and antibacterial properties. Carrot juice is even used as a natural hair dye that will enhance the brightness and depth of red-toned locks. Simply add carrot juice to olive or coconut oil, apply liberally, and allow to set before rinsing with apple cider vinegar for a safe and natural color boost.
