Parachute SAMPOORNA Hair Oil for Strong and Thick Hair 300ml

Product Overview

Parachute Sampoorna combines coconut, almond and hibiscus. The coconut base is the important part: coconut oil is one of a very small number of oils shown to penetrate into the hair shaft rather than remain on the surface, and hair that has taken up oil internally loses less protein when it is washed. That is not marketing — it is one of the better-documented findings in hair science.

Hibiscus is a traditional South Asian addition for the scalp, and almond adds softness and slip.

How to Oil Your Hair Properly

1. Warm the oil slightly between the palms. It spreads much further and more evenly than cold oil.
2. Part the hair in sections and apply along the partings so the oil reaches the scalp, not only the length.
3. Massage with the pads of the fingers — never the nails — for five to ten minutes.
4. Work what remains through to the ends, which are the oldest and driest part of the hair.
5. Leave for at least twenty minutes, longer if you have time. Overnight suits thick, dry hair; it can leave fine hair congested.
6. Shampoo out. Expect to need two lathers.

Why Pre-Wash Oiling Works

Washing hair swells the shaft with water, and a swollen shaft loses protein. Oiling before you wash — coconut oil especially — fills some of that space and limits the swelling, so less protein is lost. This is why the traditional habit of oiling the night or the morning before a wash is genuinely good practice rather than merely a custom.

It also means oiling after washing does something different: that is conditioning the surface, not protecting the inside. Both are useful, and they are not interchangeable.

Hair Fall — What an Oil Can and Cannot Reach

Almost every hair oil sold in Bangladesh promises to stop hair fall. Worth separating the two things that get lumped together under that phrase.

Breakage is hair snapping somewhere along its length — from dryness, rough combing, heat, tight ties. An oil genuinely helps here: it softens the shaft, reduces friction and makes combing gentler, and less breakage means visibly more hair.

Shedding from the root is a different thing entirely. Hair coming out with the white bulb attached, a widening parting, a receding hairline, or a sudden heavy shed after illness, childbirth, crash dieting or a change in medication — these have causes inside the body. Iron and ferritin, thyroid, hormones, protein intake and stress are the usual suspects, and a blood test finds them. No oil reaches any of that.

Use the oil for what it does well. If hair is coming out at the root, see a doctor — the earlier it is looked at, the better most causes respond.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it solidify in cold weather?

Coconut-based oils thicken below about 24°C. Stand the bottle in warm water for a few minutes and it pours normally again. It does not affect the oil.

How often should I use it?

Follow the pack. Hair oils suit one to three times a week; leave-in creams can be daily in small amounts; colour should be left as long as possible between applications, with touch-ups on the roots only.

Will it suit my hair type?

Rich oils and creams suit thick, coarse, curly or chemically treated hair. Fine or oily hair does better with a light product used only on the ends. If in doubt, use less than you think and see how the hair behaves before the next wash.

How should I store it?

Somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight, with the cap closed. Heat and light break down oils and colour developers faster than anything else.
