If you’ve been struggling with frizz, breakage, or hair that just won’t grow-this is your sign to turn to the rituals of Ayurveda. Enter: Amla Oil , the ancient Indian remedy that’s finally getting the modern recognition it deserves. At M.S Skincare, it’s one of our most beloved products-and for good reason.
After becoming a viral Tiktok sensation last year, we are always struggling to keep this cult product in stock.
Why Amla Oil?
Amla, or Indian gooseberry, is a small green or red fruit packed with vitamin C and antioxidants. In Ayurvedic medicine, it’s been used for centuries to nourish the scalp, strengthen hair follicles, and bring life back to dull strands . Unlike synthetic treatments that coat the hair, Amla oil works deeper-reviving your scalp and hair from the root. It can be used to strengthen and nourish your hair from the roots to the tips.
The Benefits of Amla Oil for Hair
Boosts Hair Growth : Rich in phytonutrients and antioxidants that improve blood circulation to the scalp.
Fights Frizz : Softens hair without silicone buildup. Can use a few drops on dry ends when styling hair.
Strengthens Hair Shaft : Reduces split ends and breakage.
Soothes the Scalp : Anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial—ideal for dandruff, itchiness, or dry scalp.
Protects Against Environmental Damage : Amla is loaded with natural heat- and UV-protective compounds. There is a reason so many women in India have used this oil for centuries.

"LOVE IT...Now, just the day bf i was complaining on how my hair was dry as straw. I tell you after I applied this to my hair, the next morning( i work at night , and tie my hair ) my hair was sooooo soft. I will be ordering another bottle to make me a hair oil mix. I have kinky curls."
How to Use Amla Oil in Your Hair Ritual
1. As a Pre-Wash Scalp Treatment (1–2x/week)
Massage a dropperful of Amla Oil into your scalp with fingertips or a gua sha or wooden neem comb. Let it absorb for 30 minutes or overnight before shampooing. This nourishes roots and boosts circulation.
Pro tip: Wrap your hair in a warm towel to deepen absorption.
2. As a Post-Wash Hair Oil
Warm a few drops in your palms and smooth over damp ends. This helps lock in moisture, reduce frizz, and add natural shine without greasiness.
3. As a Daily Frizz Tamer
Use a single drop of pure Amla oil to touch up dry ends or flyaways throughout the day. A little goes a long way.
