Pele Lava Elixir
Favorite ingredient: Barley Oil - Barley is rich in vitamins like procyanidin-B3, thiamin, and niacin, which help stimulate hair growth. It’s also a source of iron and copper, which helps combat hair loss and premature graying by stimulating the production of melanin in the follicles. Other benefits include healing of any scalp irritation and inflammation.
Directions for use
On its own: Start by massaging your scalp using your fingertips or our Scalp Massager and Invigorator. After your massage, dispense 2-3 pumps of Pele Lava Elixir onto your fingertips and apply to hairline and thinning areas 2-4 hours before you plan to shampoo.
For a more intense treatment, apply 1-3 hours before bedtime. In the morning, brush your hair with a natural boar bristle brush and wash or style as usual.
Use elixir daily for one week, and then let your scalp rest the following week. This is the perfect time to do a Zen Detox Hair and Scalp Masque treatment.
Repeat the schedule of one week on/one week off until the elixir is gone.
In conjunction with other elixirs: Follow the same steps as above, switching to the next elixir you are using following your rest week. Continue rotating elixirs during your "on" weeks until the elixirs are gone.
Pele Lava Elixir goes well with:
God-dess Earth Elixir
Poseidon Sea Elixir
Apollo Air Elixir
Shop the God/Goddess Set
In conjunction with the lunar hair chart: Used in any season following the "strengthen" goal. Normally, you only need a couple drops of elixir at a time to stimulate the hair follicle, but in this case, you’re going to apply it liberally directly to your scalp–this much elixir should only be used with the Lunar Cut. Using a cotton ball, apply the elixir to your scalp right before you are about to do or receive your lunar haircut.
The elixir needs to be in your hair for at least 24 hours, so do not shampoo after your haircut. Let it settle in overnight. If you have the luxury of allowing your hair to remain oily, try keeping it in for 48 hours for the ultimate growth boost!
