Here are some studies that have explored the benefits of sandalwood essential oil for use on hair and beard:

Antimicrobial properties: Sandalwood essential oil has been shown to have strong antimicrobial properties, which can help to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi on the skin and scalp. In a study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology, sandalwood essential oil was found to be effective against several types of bacteria and fungi, including Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans (1). This can be beneficial for maintaining the health and cleanliness of the hair and beard.

Hair growth: Sandalwood essential oil has been suggested to have hair growth-promoting effects. In a study published in the Journal of Cosmetic Science, sandalwood essential oil was found to stimulate hair growth in mice (2). [We at Knightsmen Grooming NEVER test our products on animals.

Moisturizing effects: Sandalwood essential oil has been found to have moisturizing effects on the skin and hair. In a study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology, sandalwood essential oil was found to significantly increase the moisture content of the skin (3). This can be beneficial for maintaining the hydration and softness of the hair and beard.

Anti-inflammatory effects: Sandalwood essential oil has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, which can help to reduce redness and swelling on the skin. In a study published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology, sandalwood essential oil was found to reduce inflammation in mice (4). This can be beneficial for soothing the skin and reducing irritation on the scalp and beard.

In conclusion, sandalwood essential oil may have various benefits for the hair and beard, including antimicrobial, hair growth-promoting, moisturizing, and anti-inflammatory effects. However, more research is needed to fully understand the effects of sandalwood essential oil on the hair and beard.
