Studies have shown that the olfactory receptors on the scalp can accelerate hair growth.
To stimulate the follicle, the Manchester researchers, led by Rolf Paus, used samples of a synthetic fragrance solution with the scent of sandalwood. It turned out that when it acts on the hair root, the death of the bulbs is significantly slowed down. There are versions that by delaying the death of the follicle, the growth phase of the hair itself can also be prolonged. According to scientists, the olfactory receptor OR2AT4 is present in the cells of the scalp, which is directly involved in stimulating hair growth. This process is similar to the regulation of cell growth in the body.
According to the media, this discovery provides new perspectives for the development of aromatherapy and its effects on the human body. For optimal hair growth, you need to regularly stimulate your scalp with sandalwood scent. Low cost and availability of this method of treatment can help solve one of the most popular problems of the population.
