Azlok Hair Fall Control Kit: How to Use Castor, Onion, Peppermint & Rosemary Oils

The Azlok Hair Fall Control Kit is a set of four hair-care oils — Castor Oil (100 g), Onion Oil (100 g), Peppermint Oil (10 g) and Rosemary Oil (10 g) — meant to be blended and massaged into the scalp to support stronger roots, healthier scalp skin and reduced breakage over regular use. Priced at ₹739, it is a simple, natural routine you can follow at home, two to three times a week.
What each oil does
Every oil in the kit plays a distinct role, and they work best together rather than alone:
- Castor oil — a thick, nutrient-rich carrier oil traditionally used to coat and condition hair strands and reduce dryness at the roots.
- Onion oil — a long-standing Indian favourite for scalp care, valued for its sulphur content and its use in oiling routines aimed at hair strength.
- Peppermint oil — a concentrated essential oil that gives a cool, tingling sensation and helps freshen the scalp. A little goes a long way.
- Rosemary oil — a popular essential oil in modern hair-care routines, often added to scalp massages for its herbaceous aroma and traditional use.
How to use the kit
Because peppermint and rosemary are strong essential oils, always dilute them in the carrier oils rather than applying them neat. A simple approach:
- In a small bowl, mix roughly equal parts castor oil and onion oil — about one to two tablespoons total, depending on your hair length.
- Add just 2–3 drops each of peppermint and rosemary oil and stir well.
- Warm the blend slightly (not hot) by placing the bowl in warm water.
- Part your hair in sections and apply to the scalp with your fingertips.
- Massage gently in circular motions for 5–10 minutes to help the oil settle in.
- Leave it on for 1–2 hours, or overnight if your scalp tolerates it well, then wash off with a mild shampoo.
Use this routine two to three times a week. Castor oil is heavy, so one or two washes may be needed to rinse it out fully. Results with any oiling routine are gradual — think in terms of weeks and months, not days.
Safety and honest expectations
Natural oils suit most people, but a few sensible precautions matter:
- Patch-test first. Apply a little diluted blend behind your ear or on your inner arm and wait 24 hours to check for redness or itching.
- Never apply peppermint or rosemary undiluted to skin or scalp — they are potent and can irritate.
- Avoid the eyes. If oil gets in your eyes, rinse with plenty of water.
- Keep away from children and do not ingest any of the oils.
- If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a scalp condition, check with a doctor before using essential oils.
- These oils support scalp and hair care as part of a routine; they are not a medical treatment, and heavy or sudden hair fall should be reviewed by a dermatologist.
Buying and storage tips
Store the bottles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the caps tightly closed so the essential oils don't lose their aroma. The kit has a shelf life of about two years. Mix only what you need for each application rather than pre-blending large amounts, so the oils stay fresh. You'll find this India-made kit, along with individual carrier and essential oils, in the Azlok range if you later want to top up a favourite.
FAQ
How often should I use the Hair Fall Control Kit?
Two to three times a week is a comfortable routine for most people. Massage the diluted blend into the scalp, leave it for one to two hours, then wash off.
Can I use peppermint and rosemary oil directly on my scalp?
No. Both are concentrated essential oils and should always be diluted in the castor and onion carrier oils — just 2–3 drops of each per application is enough.
How long before I see results?
Oiling routines work gradually. Give it several weeks of consistent use, and remember that overall hair health also depends on diet, sleep, stress and gentle handling of your hair.
Will the oil be hard to wash out?
Castor oil is thick, so you may need one or two washes with a mild shampoo. Applying a moderate amount, rather than drenching the scalp, makes rinsing easier.
Is the kit suitable for all hair types?
The oils suit most hair types, but everyone's scalp is different. Do a patch test first, and if you notice irritation, reduce the essential-oil drops or stop use.
