According to Healthline, castor oil has moisturising properties which can lubricate the hair shaft and in turn help the health of the hair.
While there is no scientific evidence that castor oil increases hair growth, many are finding it is hydrating and in turn helping the health of their hair.
The castor bean, from which the oil comes, is rich in ricinoleic, a fatty acid known to fight inflammation.
This organic castor oil on Amazon Australia is for skin, hair and scalp and is rich in unsaturated fatty acids.
It also acts as a natural conditioner to promote shiny hair and helps to treat an inflamed scalp to clear hair follicles and reduce dandruff.
The unrefined oil is also free from hexane, synthetic fragrances, and preservatives and is rich in essential vitamins and minerals.
Giving yourself a daily head massage with this oil increases blood circulation to the roots of the hair and in turn provides nourishment to the scalp.
Shoppers have given the castor oil a 4.6-star rating on Amazon Australia and are calling the oil, “the best”.
“Good price and good results,” one person said.
“So good for the hair,” added another person.
“Such good quality and not sticky,” a third shopper said.
“I’ve tried a few different castor oils, and this one is my favourite yet,” added another shopper.

Amazon Australia has announced its Black Friday deals will drop sitewide from November 19 when shoppers will have two full weeks to score the best deals on technology, homewares, robot vacuums and toys.
It will also signal the launch of the limited-edition Amazon Everything Christmas Pudding, a savoury take on the iconic festive dessert crafted by award-winning pastry chef and TV personality Anna Polyviou, and country Victorian small business Pud For All Seasons.
It’s a creation that blends the flavours of a traditional pudding with the essence of ham, turkey, gravy, pumpkin, cherry and rosemary to bring many of the quintessential tastes of an Aussie Christmas into a single bite.
Pud For All Seasons, a small Australian business from Castlemaine in Victoria, made the limited-edition batch of puddings using small-batch production methods and will sell it exclusively on Amazon.com.au with convenient delivery options for $10.
You can add the pudding to your wishlist before it launches here.

What is Black Friday?
Black Friday is the term used to describe the Friday after Thanksgiving in the United States.
It traditionally marks the start of the Christmas shopping season and has become one of the largest shopping events in Australia.
Top brands such as Myer, The Iconic, Amazon and David Jones discount their stock from Black Friday onwards before further reducing prices on Boxing Day.
It’s the perfect time to stock up on presents for Christmas given it’s just shy of two months until December 25.
When is Black Friday?
This year Black Friday falls on November 29 but you can expect Australian retailers to start discounting stock from the end of October.
The Iconic is normally one of the first brands to share its sales so keep an eye out online.
How does Black Friday work?
Black Friday is traditionally an in-store shopping experience but in recent years it has switched to online — and for some retailers both — so that no one misses out on the incredible deals.
Some retailers have started their sales before Black Friday and they run until Cyber Monday, which is the Monday after Black Friday.
Some brands will give customers a special code they need to input at the checkout to secure the deal while others will just be already discounted to their sale price.
When is Cyber Monday?
Cyber Monday falls on December 2 this year and is just three days after Black Friday.
It usually signals the close of the big sale season before Boxing Day but depending on the retailer discounts can last right up until mid-December.
