The Powerful Hair Health Benefits of Organic Saffron

For many, Saffron is just an expensive spice used mainly as a seasoning and coloring agent in foods like khoresh, Milanese risotto, paella, bouillabaisse, biryani, and more. However, Saffron is a powerful haircare ingredient.

Saffron has a long history of use in traditional medicine, but throughout Persian history, the world’s most costly spice by weight has been used for its rich nutrient properties.

Saffron, a spice worth more than its weight in gold, is used to strengthen hair with an abundance of antioxidants, Vitamins B & C, and minerals such as folic acid, calcium, and magnesium, to name a few. It is known that chemical damage, and dry scalp, are the main reasons that make our hair look dry and dull.

However, thanks to Saffron’s powerful antioxidants, we can combat dryness by nourishing and moisturizing the hair. Due to its remarkable nutrients, Saffron also helps promote hair growth and has been used in DIY recipes to treat alopecia for a long time. Saffron works even better when combined with Neem leaf powder to treat premature baldness and repair damaged hair follicles.

Saffron’s antioxidant properties prevent hair loss, purify the scalp and pores, promote healthy hair growth, and repairs damaged hair. It is no wonder Saffron is the most expensive spice globally and worth more than its weight in gold. Fortunately, a little goes a long way. Adding Saffron with Neem leaf powder to your daily hair care regime will detangle, moisturize, repair, prevent heat/styling damage, defrizz, and add shine to hair.

When can consumers start noticing the results?
Consumers will notice results within 15-20 minutes after applying Neem leaf powder blended with Saffron. The hair becomes noticeably softer, less tangled, smoother, and shinier.

The benefits become even more noticeable over time as the antioxidants and the hair follicle healing properties have the opportunity to make changes to the chemistry of the hair strand itself. This happens within the actual hair follicle. Used over time, consumers will find their hair is healthier, shinier, and frizz-free.

Are the ingredients from Organic Tea Express sourced responsibly and sustainably?
As we move toward a more sustainable world, Organic Tea Express, like many other small businesses, recognizes the limitations of relying on sustainability certifications to ensure ethical practices at their sourcing origins. Instead, we move toward a more transparent supply chain and develop solutions by engaging directly with farmers through training, education, and collaborative initiatives.

Whenever possible, Organic Tea Express works to remove unnecessary intermediaries and buy directly from farmers or small collective groups. This increases the efficiency of the supply chain and allows farmers to access better prices. As a small, woman-owned, family-run business ourselves, we make every effort to recognize the fundamental, though often hidden, role women play on farms and the supply chain.

As a business, we fully support every initiative we can to address equal access for women to improve their quality of life and continue their quest for gender equality.
