Meaning ❉ Plant Oils History traces the quiet lineage of botanical lipids, a gentle whisper from generations past, guiding our current understanding of textured hair wellness. From the earliest applications across African and diasporic traditions, where specific oils were chosen for their distinct benefits, this historical wisdom provides a foundational knowledge for Black and mixed-race hair care. These ancestral ways showed how consistent, almost automated, routines for moisture retention and scalp balance were established through centuries of careful observation. Such practices, once passed down through family lines, now shape the thoughtful selection and practical application of oils in modern hair regimens, offering a comforting sense of continuity and purposeful care.
