Your Ultimate Guide to Growing Stronger, Healthier Hair – Naturally
Hair growth is personal. Whether you’re struggling with thinning edges, postpartum shedding, beard patches, or just want longer, fuller hair, finding a growth oil that actually works can feel like a guessing game. And when you live in Akure or anywhere in Ondo State, the local weather, water, and lifestyle can make things even more complicated.
The truth is: not all oils are created equal. Some just coat your strands. Others penetrate the scalp, stimulate follicles, and nourish from within.
In this post, we’re breaking down the top hair growth oils in Akure, and helping you understand what ingredients actually fuel growth (and which are just hype).
If you’ve ever asked:
🔍 “Which hair growth oil is best for natural hair in Akure?”
🔍 “What can I use for my edges, beard, or postpartum shedding?”
🔍 “Are there Nigerian-made oils that really work?”
This blog is for you.
👑 1. Tom Naturals Ayurvedic Hair Growth Oil (Top Pick)
Best for: Edges, bald spots, beard growth, postpartum shedding
Size: 100ml
Price: ₦7,500
Where to buy: Tom Naturals Akure – Ijigba Quarters off Oda Road
Let’s start with the powerhouse.
Tom Naturals’ Ayurvedic Hair Growth Oil is a multi-functional treatment oil made with over 10 Ayurvedic herbs, essential oils, and carrier oils that have been used for centuries to treat hair loss, boost growth, and improve scalp health.
⭐ Key Ingredients:
- Bhringraj: Known as the “King of Hair” in Ayurveda — stimulates follicles
- Fenugreek (Methi): High in protein and iron, supports regrowth
- Neem & Brahmi: Antifungal, reduces dandruff and inflammation
- Castor oil: Thickens and nourishes hair
- Tea tree oil: Fights flakes, itchiness, and scalp infections
- Coconut & almond oil: Deeply moisturizing
🔥 Why It Works:
This oil doesn’t just sit on top of your scalp, it penetrates and helps reactivate dormant follicles. Regular use improves circulation, reduces hair thinning, and encourages stronger roots.
💬 “After just 6 weeks of use, my edges came back and my scalp stopped flaking. I also use it on my beard now, it’s growing fuller!” — Chuka, Akure
How to use it:
- Massage into scalp 3x per week
- Use as a hot oil treatment weekly
- Can be left in or rinsed out after a few hours
🌿 2. Castor Oil (Local Cold-Pressed)
Best for: Thinning hair, thickening edges, sealing moisture
Where to find it in Akure: Some markets and health stores offer cold-pressed castor oil — but quality varies. Always check the label and scent (it should be thick and slightly nutty, not overly refined or odorless).
✅ Benefits:
- Rich in ricinoleic acid, which improves blood flow to the scalp
- Helps reduce shedding and breakage
- Great for sealing in moisture after applying leave-in conditioners
- Works for lashes and brows too!
Tip: Mix with lighter oils (like coconut or almond) to avoid buildup.
🌸 3. Coconut Oil (Pure, Unrefined)
Best for: Moisture retention, scalp health, protecting ends
While not a direct hair “growth stimulator,” coconut oil is one of the best supporting oils. It helps maintain length by reducing protein loss, keeping hair soft and hydrated, and preventing breakage.
Use it for:
- Pre-poo treatments
- Sealing after leave-in conditioner
- Mixing with essential oils (like peppermint or rosemary)
⚠️ Coconut oil can cause dryness for some low-porosity hair types — patch test before regular use.
🌿 4. Essential Oils (Peppermint, Rosemary, Tea Tree)
Best for: Stimulating growth, increasing blood flow, treating flaky scalp
Essential oils are potent and powerful — and when used correctly, they can significantly enhance your hair growth oil blend.
🌿 Tom Naturals uses:
- Peppermint oil – Stimulates scalp, creates a cooling effect
- Rosemary oil – Proven to work as well as minoxidil (a popular synthetic growth treatment)
- Tea Tree oil – Fights dandruff and buildup
How to use:
Always dilute essential oils in a carrier oil (like almond, olive, or castor). Never apply them directly to your scalp.
🚫 Oils to Avoid for Hair Growth
Not all oils are good for your scalp — especially if you’re aiming for healthy, consistent growth.
Avoid:
- Mineral oil / petrolatum – Blocks pores, offers no nutrients
- Highly refined oils – Often stripped of nutrients and fragrance
- Synthetic growth oils with no real herbs (check the label!)
Always choose oils that are:
✅ Cold-pressed
✅ Organic (if possible)
✅ Free of fillers and harsh preservatives

🔍 Final Thoughts: What Actually Works?
When it comes to hair growth in Akure, don’t waste time with heavily perfumed, chemically-loaded oils that do nothing but sit on your scalp.
