Onion Oil vs Jatamansi: Which Is Better for Hair Regrowth?

Let’s be honest, most of us have had a moment where we’ve stared at the comb wondering, “Was that always this much hair?” Whether it’s stress, styling, or just life doing its thing, hair fall can feel frustrating, and sometimes even defeating.

That’s why so many of us are turning back to roots, literally.
Nature has given us some incredible remedies, and two names keep coming up when it comes to hair revival: Onion Oil and Jatamansi.

So which one is better for you? Let’s break down the benefits, rituals, and truth behind each — and why Bhringraj & Jatamansi Hair Oil might be the multitasker your roots have been waiting for.

Onion Oil: The Strength Builder

Once a kitchen staple, now a haircare hero, onion oil has gone from surprising to essential.
It’s rich in sulphur, a mineral your hair needs to form strong, breakage-resistant strands.

When used consistently, onion oil:

• Helps reduce hair fall

• Boosts blood circulation in the scalp

• Strengthens roots

• Adds softness and shine

Why We Love It at N4N

Our Onion Fruit Oil is cold-pressed, chemical-free, and blended with nourishing carrier oils to keep it gentle on the scalp. It’s not just about regrowth,  it’s about giving your hair the strength to thrive.

Your Ritual:
Warm a little oil, massage into your scalp for 5–10 minutes, and leave on for at least 30 minutes. Use 1–2 times a week. The smell fades, the results stay.

Jatamansi: The Root Reviver

You may not hear its name as often, but Jatamansi (Nardostachys jatamansi) is a hidden gem in Ayurvedic haircare. Traditionally used to soothe nerves and calm the mind, it turns out Jatamansi for hair regrowth is just as powerful.

This earthy root:

• Stimulates dormant hair follicles

• Encourages natural regrowth in thinning areas

• Improves hair texture and shine

• Calms irritated scalps and balances oil production

Where onion builds strength, jatamansi restores balance. It works gently over time to create the perfect scalp environment for new growth, thicker, softer, and fuller.

Bhringraj & Jatamansi Hair Oil : A Ritual in a Bottle

Sometimes, the best haircare isn’t about choosing either-or.
It’s about combining wisdom,  and that’s where our Bhringraj & Jatamansi Hair Oil comes in.

Blending jatamansi with bhringraj, the celebrated “King of Herbs” for hair,  this formula is made to:

• Soothe inflamed or sensitive scalps

• Encourage hair density and fullness

• Deeply nourish without feeling heavy

• Work over time, not overnight

It's a grounding treatment for anyone looking to revive thinning hair, calm stressed roots, and grow with intention.

So… Which One’s Better?

It depends on what your hair needs right now.

Can You Use Both?

Yes, and we recommend it.
Alternate based on your weekly hair goals:

• Start the week with a scalp-strengthening Onion Oil massage

• Midweek or weekend, opt for a calming, growth-focused Jatamansi or Bhringraj blend

• Layer in steam, warm towels, or longer massage to deepen the ritual

You’re not just growing hair,  you’re restoring your rhythm.

FAQs

Does onion oil really help with hair growth?
Yes! It’s rich in sulphur, which helps strengthen hair and reduce breakage. When massaged into the scalp, it improves circulation and supports new hair growth over time.

How does jatamansi support regrowth?
Jatamansi helps stimulate hair follicles and promotes healthy regrowth, especially in areas where hair has thinned. It also soothes dry, itchy, or stressed scalps.

Which is better for sensitive scalps?
Jatamansi is gentler and calming, making it ideal for reactive scalps. Onion oil is more stimulating, so patch test if your scalp is very sensitive.

Where does bhringraj fit in?
Bhringraj is your go-to for deep nourishment, stronger roots, and shine. When combined with jatamansi, it becomes a powerful yet gentle formula for all-round regrowth.

Nature Knows Best

Hair loss doesn’t mean something’s wrong with you.
It just means your hair needs a little more care,  and ingredients that know how to listen.

With onion oil, you get strength.
With jatamansi, you get calm and regrowth.
With bhringraj + jatamansi, you get a ritual, one that honours both tradition and transformation.

At N4N, we believe that haircare should feel grounding.
It should be layered, consistent, and deeply personal.
So whether you go with the strength of onion, the serenity of jatamansi, or a blend rooted in both,  you’re giving your roots the care they truly deserve.

Let nature take the lead. Your hair will follow.
