Hair Plus Premium Oil Based carries the Hair Plus essential-oil blend in a traditional pre-wash hair oil. Rosemary, lavender, lemon, cedarwood, thyme and jatamansi are the six oils of the published hair-tonic formulation, carried in tila (sesame) oil with arachis (peanut) oil in the wider formula. The pack describes it as a patented formulation; massage it into the scalp, leave it on and wash as usual.
FOR PEOPLE WHO LIKE THE RITUAL OF OILING
Oiling before a wash is the oldest scalp routine there is: a few minutes of massage, some time for the oil to sit, then a shampoo. Hair Plus Premium Oil Based puts the same six essential oils as the water-based leave-in into that routine, carried in sesame oil so they spread easily over the scalp and wash out cleanly.
Rosemary, lavender, lemon, cedarwood, thyme and jatamansi are the six oils of the published hair-tonic formulation. The cards below say what each is known for.
Tila, or sesame oil, is the traditional carrier of Indian hair oils: it spreads easily, carries the essential oils over the scalp and washes out with an ordinary shampoo.
A few minutes of fingertip massage is the oldest scalp care there is. An oil gives the fingers slip and gives the scalp that time; the pack directions set how long to leave it on.
What reaches the lengths adds slip before the wash, so hair is easier to detangle and feels smoother afterwards.
Oil Based is for oiling days; the water-based version is the everyday leave-in. They are alternatives, not steps to layer by default.
The pack says patented formulation and the published hair-tonic patent is linked on this page. A patent describes a composition; it is not a guarantee of regrowth or a timeline, and this page does not claim one. Patch test before first use.
SIX ESSENTIAL OILS · ONE CARRIER · A PUBLISHED FORMULATION
Thyme, rosemary, lavender, lemon, cedarwood and jatamansi are the six essential oils named in the published hair-tonic patent (WO2006137081A1) that Hair Plus Premium is built on. Tila, or sesame oil, is the carrier, with arachis oil in the wider formula. Open each card for what the ingredient is known for. A patent publication describes a composition, not a measured result on this bottle, and the cards keep that distinction.
Rosemary leaf oil is the botanical most often reached for in scalp care, known for a fresh, stimulating feel and a clean herbal scent. It is the oil the Hair Plus range is best known for. This card describes the ingredient, not a measured result on this bottle.
Lavender oil is known for its calming scent and a soothing feel on skin, including the scalp. It is one of the six oils in the published formulation and much of what you smell during the massage. The claim is about the ingredient, not a result on the finished product.
Lemon peel oil is known for a fresh, clean note and a light feel, the reason citrus oils turn up in so many scalp oils. It lifts the blend's scent. As with every card here, the claim is about the ingredient, not a measurement on this bottle.
Cedarwood oil is a dry, woody essential oil with a long place in traditional scalp preparations, known for its grounding scent and for being one of the oils that hair-tonic formulas keep returning to. It is one of the six named in the published patent. This card describes the ingredient, not a result on this product.
Thyme oil is a warm, herbal essential oil known for its thymol content and a fresh, clarifying feel on the scalp. It is the first oil listed in the published formulation. The claim is about the ingredient, not a measured result on this bottle.
Jatamansi, or spikenard, is a Himalayan root with a long place in Ayurvedic hair oils, known for a calming, earthy scent and a traditional reputation for the scalp. It is the one Indian botanical among the six oils. This card describes the ingredient, not a result on the finished product.
Tila, or sesame oil, is the traditional carrier of Ayurvedic hair oils, known for a light, warming feel and for spreading easily on the scalp. Here it carries the six essential oils. This card describes the ingredient, not a measured result on this bottle.
Arachis oil is peanut oil, a light plant oil known for its fatty acids and natural vitamin E, used here in the wider formula alongside the sesame carrier. Anyone who avoids peanut-derived ingredients should check the current pack before use. The claim is about the ingredient, not a result on this product.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A HAIR OIL AND A LEAVE-IN
Both Hair Plus Premium formulas are about the same six essential oils. This one carries them in sesame oil, the way a traditional hair oil does, so it asks for a wash afterwards and rewards a proper massage. The water-based version disperses them in a lighter leave-in you spray on and keep in.
Pick by routine, not by promise. If you already oil your hair before washing, this is the one. If you want scalp care on a busy weekday, the leave-in is. The honest payoff of either is a scalp that gets regular attention, not a regrowth result that no oil can guarantee.
THE PRE-WASH OIL RITUAL
Work the oil into the scalp in small sections rather than pouring it on the lengths. Follow the current pack for quantity, contact time and frequency, and patch test before first use; the formula contains essential oils and peanut-derived arachis oil.
Work on dry hair before a wash. Make small partings so the oil reaches the scalp rather than sitting on the lengths.
Pour a little into the palm and work it along each parting with the fingertips for a few minutes. What is left on the hands can go on the ends. Follow the current pack for quantity.
Leave it on for a while or overnight, as the pack directs, then wash out with your usual shampoo. Keep it away from the eyes.

THE QUESTIONS PEOPLE ASK BEFORE THEIR FIRST BOTTLE
Both carry the same six essential oils. Oil Based is a traditional hair oil you massage in before a wash; Water Based is a lighter leave-in you spray on and keep in. Pick the texture and routine you prefer; they are alternatives, not compulsory consecutive steps.
Publication WO2006137081A1 documents a hair-tonic composition built around six essential oils: thyme, rosemary, lavender, lemon, cedarwood and jatamansi. Sesame and arachis oil belong to the current product's wider formula. A patent publication describes a composition. It is not a guarantee of regrowth or a result timeline.
Yes. The printed ingredient list includes arachis oil, which is peanut oil, alongside sesame oil. Do not use it if you are allergic to an ingredient; check your current pack.
Follow the contact time printed on your current pack. Many people oil an hour or two before a wash or leave it on overnight; either way, wash out with your usual shampoo.
No. Hair loss has different causes, and a cosmetic scalp-care routine cannot guarantee regrowth. Persistent or sudden hair loss is worth discussing with a dermatologist.
On your current pack, especially if you have a known allergy. The product label takes precedence over the shortened ingredient highlights on this page.
