Dr. Vanita Rattan Strand Strengthening Oil 100ml, for thinning & brittle hair.
A lightweight formula to give shine without looking heavy. Style your hair with this oil to go out during the day with shiny, protected, non-greasy, healthy hair.
When used as part of the Dr. Vanita Rattan Hair Range 5 product routine, your hair is likely to feel silkier, thicker and easier to detangle, with less frizz and fewer split ends (as per the 4 week consumer trial).
The very light formula of the oil will help you deeply nourish and regenerate your hair without burdening it.
The mixture of 6 oils contained in the composition (amla oil, coconut oil, argan oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, sweet almond oil) will give the hair shine and an elegant look.
Lightweight carriers, without weighing down the hair, will provide it with protection from external factors and hot temperature.
For women & men, age 20+ with thinning, brittle hair from ageing and damage over time.
For normal & dry, thinning hair. Types 1a - 4c hair.
Not ideal for persons with an oily scalp. However, it is suitable if the scalp only becomes greasy after 1-2 days.
Not for persons with a history of reactions to topical skin/hair products or overly dry/sensitive/damaged skin.
What is happening to your hair with age?
In females, by the mid-30s, there is a reduction in oestrogen levels. Oestrogen protects the hair root from the hormone testosterone.
This process speeds up at menopause and 40% of those by 70 years of age have female pattern hair loss.
The increased testosterone effect leads to thin, brittle hair, with premature hair loss.
To slow this process, you need to:
- Stimulate hair follicles.
- Improve the health of the scalp so strong, vibrant hair can grow.
- Supply the scalp with essential nutrients.
- Strengthen existing hair to prevent breakage.

Use 1-2 pumps of Strand Strengthening Oil 2 inches from the root to the hair-end every night, to re-nourish hair from environmental assault during the day.
Strand Strengthening Oil can be used on wet or dry hair and should be used to protect hair from heat styling. After, use the Anagen BOOST Scalp Tonic every evening on the thinning hair patches.
We recommend use of the whole hair range plus Dr. V Collagen Boost drink for optimal results.
Warning: In general, only apply the products in this range on normal, clean scalp skin, not if cracked/damaged. In the rare event of skin irritation or an allergic skin reaction, please wash off, let us know and contact your doctor if required.
1. How long do Dr. V Hair Range products last for?
This will vary for each product and person, however, if usage guidelines are followed, the average duration may be 6-12 weeks approx.
2. Is the Hair Range suitable for pregnancy & breastfeeding?
Yes.
3a. Is the Hair Range suitable for an oily scalp?
If moderately oily you can try the range, but avoid if very oily.
3b. Is the Hair Range suitable for dandruff?
The hair range may help with moderate dandruff, but it is not sufficient for severe dandruff.
3c. Is the Hair Range suitable for dry/itchy scalp?
The Anagen Boost Hair Tonic is not suitable in this case, but the other Hair Range products are.
3d. Is the Hair Range suitable for colour dyed / bleached hair?
Yes, and it would be actively beneficial for this, to renourish and rebuild the hair strand damaged by the above.
4a. Can you use the Hair Range whilst using other Dr. V or 3rd Party skin products on the face / body.
Yes.
4b. Can you mix & match the Hair Range with 3rd party haircare products?
You would not need to use any other cosmetic treatment products on the scalp/hair, as the Dr. V Hair Range has all the active ingredients you need.
If prescribed scalp medications are being used, please wait until finished before starting/resuming Dr. V Hair Range.
5. Can I use the Hair Range whilst on Isotretinoin/Roaccutane?
No, please wait until 6 months after completion to use Dr. V Hair Range.
6. Can I apply Hair Range products during the day?
Yes the product range is safe to wear during the day (as opposed to hyperpigmentation kits, which are not).
7. Which products go on the scalp and which on the whole hair strand?
SCALP: Shampoo*, Tonic.
HAIR: Conditioners, Oil.
*The Shampoo is for direct application to the scalp, not for all of the hair strand. The reason we suggest this is to not the strip the hair of moisture; surfactants in the shampoo remove grime & dirt, but on the hair strand this can be drying (all shampoos).
8. Why does the range contain sulfates/sulphates (same)?
We have no general concerns with sulfates (nor is there sufficient evidence to support this), it depends on the type and how they are used.
For example, Sodium Laureth Sulfate is used safely and effectively in our Shampoo as an excellent cleaning agent, which helps to clear the scalp of grime to allow hair to grow. This is substantially different from Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, which we do not recommend.
9. How long does it take to see results?
The timeline below may be broadly applicable to most users:
Immediately (1-3 uses): Hair is easier to detangle, feels smoother/silkier and looks shinier.
After 4 weeks: hair feels thicker, split ends reduced, frizz reduced.
For enhanced benefits, particularly hair length, strength and new growth, combine with Dr. V Collagen Boost and use consistently.
" This is my favourite product from the Hair Range! It immediately smooths my frizzy curls for heatless island-girl style days and protects my strands when straightening/tonging. This Hair Oil gives a gorgeous glossy, non-heavy shine, whilst preventing heat damage.
--- Love, Dr. V "
"I love this product, it is lightweight and non-greasy, which I need. My hair looks and feels healthier and doesn't feel as fragile as it once did. I have been using the anagen boast hair tonic as well."
