Packaging of Indulekha oil
The oil comes in a beautiful plastic bottle which is shaped like a comb in front which dispenses oil. The bottle is patented by the brand and has honestly half the country going ga-ga over it. It looks absolutely gorgeous.
Indulekha oil is dark brown in color and has a very thick consistency. And when I mean thick, it’s THICK! However, the selfie comb bottle makes the application very easy. It has a very strong herbal fragrance which might trouble your sensitive noses.
Indulekha hair oil ingredients
The best part about this hair oil was the high quality herbs that they use in their manufacturing process.
The Indulekha hair oil is good for your hair as it contains the goodness of Bringraj, Amla, Aloe vera, Swethakutaja, Neem, Pure Coconut Milk Oil and other ayurvedic herbs that promote hair growth, control hair fall and works on dandruff. The hair oil is made by soaking the herbs in pure coconut oil and leaving them infused in natural sunlight for up to 7 days.
This is the exact method I use to make my hibiscus hair oil for hair growth. And I can vouch for how wonderfully this natural process works.
How To Use Indulekha Bringha Oil?
- The right way to apply Indulekha oil is to apply the oil directly on your scalp using the comb applicator.
- Apply a good quantity to make sure your entire hair length including roots and ends and covered nicely with the oil.
- Leave it on for 30 minutes before you wash your hair with a good shampoo for hair fall.
- Follow up with the rest of your hair care routine as usual.
Price and shelf life: It costs Rs.234 for 50ml and has a shelf life of 2 years.
Indulekha Oil Benefits
- Indulekha hair oil nourishes your dry hair.
- It also makes hair frizz free and manageable.
- Soothes itchy scalp.
- Works on treating mild dandruff.
Side Effects Of Indulekha Oil
- It has strong fragrance which might irritate your scalp especially if you have sensitive scalp or scalp infections.
- It has a thicker texture so leaving it overnight might lead to breakouts in some cases.
Unless you are allergic to any particular ingredient, there is absolutely no bigger side effect that I found with this oil.
My Experience Using Indulekha Hair Oil
You know how much I preach Indian hair oiling routine on this beauty blog. You name a hair problem and I might give you the exact hair oil that can fix it for you. It is one such long Indian hair secret that I inherited growing up.
Initially, I tried this Indulekha bringha oil mostly because so many of you wanted me to try it, its natural method of manufacturing this oil and also the selfie bottle really attracted me.
The moment I opened the bottle, I was greeted by a very strong herbal fragrance. It is a bit too strong and like I said if you have sensitive nose than it will most probably irritate you. Plus, if you have sensitive scalp, please do a patch test before hand.
The bringha oil is on the thicker side. Hence, it does not spread very easily but the selfie bottle does a good job in being your perfect assistant. Just one issue I had that my selfie bottle was leaking a bit.
When I applied the oil for the first time, I kept it overnight. The next morning, I pampered my oiled hair with some steam cap for better penetration of hair oil in my hair strands and stimulate better blood flow which promotes faster hair growth. Its the quickest mini hair spa at home.

I had to wash twice to get the oil out completely due to its thicker consistency with my rosemary shampoo to control hair loss.
My hair after wash felt very manageable and my scalp didn’t feel itchy despite being washed twice. But because it was very heavy oil and me keeping it overnight, it gifted me breakouts. So from next time forward, I kept the oil only for half an hour or so before washing.
Here a quick hair care tip:
Don’t step out with this oil in your hair. It might make your hair way too dirty.
Overall, I liked how Indulekha hair oil nourished my dry hair and made them manageable and frizz-free even without my hair conditioner. It definitely works for mild dandruff but I haven’t seen any noticeable hair growth or improvement in my hair loss problem even after using it for more than 2 months consistently.
I would recommend you to try the hair oils for thicker hair growth as they have worked better for me comparatively.

Yay or Nay?
Again a product I have strong mixed feelings for.
If you have dry hair with mild dandruff than Indulekha bringha hair oil might just be a good pick for you. It might be remedy on hair fall or hair regrowth as they claimed. However, I didn’t see any difference in hair loss, hair growth or regrowth for that matter.
