Her beauty has captivated hearts from Kashmir to Kanyakumari. Her acting talent has mesmerised India. On one hand, an actress, on the other, an equally talented singer. She is Shruti Haasan. The worthy daughter of actor Kamal Haasan. From 'Rocky Handsome' to 'Gabbar Is Back' - her acting in multiple films has caught everyone's attention. People's interest in Shruti is therefore endless.
However, it's not just her beauty or acting skills, but there's also an endless fascination with Shruti Haasan's thick black hair. What does Shruti do to take care of her hair? There's tremendous interest in that, too. However, the actress herself had revealed that secret.
Shruti had appeared as a guest on The Ranveer Show podcast. There she had revealed the secret behind her healthy, beautiful hair. When Ranveer Allahbadia asked Shruti about her hair, the actress revealed that one oil works this magic. She said, "My hair colour is natural. I use oil, only sesame oil. However, sometimes when I feel like it, I mix it with coconut or almond oil. But sesame has worked wonderfully for my hair care."
Shruti has given another tip as well. Many people have the habit of wetting their heads and bathing every day. Shruti doesn't do that at all. About her routine, Shruti says, "I oil my hair before shampooing every time. But I don't shampoo every day. You shouldn't shampoo your hair daily. When I have a shoot, I apply oil to my hair the night before. The next day I wake up, shampoo my hair and go to the shoot."

How beneficial is sesame oil for hair care?
Nourishes the scalp
Sesame oil is rich in essential minerals like vitamin E, vitamin B-complex, magnesium and calcium. These penetrate deep into the scalp, nourish hair follicles and help in healthy hair growth.
Prevents hair fall
The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of sesame oil improve blood circulation in the scalp. It strengthens hair roots, reduces hair breakage and protects from problems like dryness or weakening of roots. As a result, hair fall reduces.
Natural conditioner
Sesame oil also works as a conditioner for hair. It provides moisture to dry and damaged hair. It keeps it soft and smooth. With regular use, it retains hair moisture and prevents split ends.

Protects from ultraviolet rays and pollution
Sesame oil creates a special coating on hair. This protects hair from damage caused by harmful ultraviolet rays, pollution and heat. As a result, hair doesn't become brittle.
Dandruff
This oil is effective in fighting scalp infections. The antibacterial, antifungal and anti-inflammatory properties it contains reduce itching and scalp flakiness. It helps fight against dandruff. As a result, hair fall problems are reduced.
