Red onion infused oil is made the traditional way, red onion is infused into a base oil to draw out its natural sulfur compounds and antioxidants, which are then carried straight into the scalp and hair roots. It’s a simple remedy that’s been part of Pakistani households for generations, made here without unnecessary additives or heavy processing.
This is different from onion seed oil, which is extracted by cold pressing onion seeds directly. If you’re specifically looking for that, we also offer a Cold Pressed Onion Seed Oil, extracted mechanically from the seed itself rather than infused. Both support hair health, but the extraction method and concentration are different, pick based on what you’re looking for.

Important Considerations
Onion oil is a traditional remedy, and results vary from person to person, it isn’t a medically proven cure for hair loss. Patch test on your inner arm before first use, and avoid contact with the eyes. If you have a diagnosed scalp or hair-loss condition, check with a dermatologist before adding any new hair oil to your routine.
