• What is vitamin E known for?

Vitamin E is best known for its antioxidant properties that help reduce free radical damage and protect the body’s cells. Although you can find it in the supplement aisle, many companies add vitamin E to their beauty products. And for good reason!

Vitamin E has been used in dermatology since the 1950s to help protect the skin against aging, inflammation, and sun damage. The fat-soluble antioxidant is vital for maintaining healthy skin and a strong immune system.

Recently, vitamin E has been hailed as a cure-all to turn frizzy, damaged, unmanageable hair into shiny, luscious locks worthy of a shampoo commercial — or a sun-soaked Instagram image.

• What can vitamin E do for your hair?

Early research suggests that vitamin E can help improve overall scalp and hair health. More studies are needed to truly understand its possible benefits.

• Prevent hair loss

A small trial from 2010Trusted Source found that vitamin E supplements improved hair growth in people with hair loss. It’s thought that the vitamin’s antioxidant properties helped reduce oxidative stress in the scalp. Oxidative stress has been linked with hair lossTrusted Source.

• Improve scalp circulation

Vitamin E may increase blood flow, which is said to improve hair health. Researchers in one 1999 study found that high doses of vitamin E increased blood flow to the eyes in people with type 1 diabetes.

A separate 2001 studyTrusted Source found that increased blood supply encouraged hair growth and increased the hair follicle and size in mice.

However, more research is needed to see if vitamin E directly affects blood supply to the scalp and if so, what that means for hair growth.

• Balance oil production

Vitamin E is important for creating a protective barrier on the skin’s surface. This barrier helps lock in moisture. Dry, irritated skin can be a sign of vitamin E deficiency.

Although it’s unclear whether topical vitamin E can balance out scalp oil production, oils that contain vitamin E — like avocado oil — may help moisturize the scalp. They may also help prevent excess oil production.

• Add shine

Hair can look dull and frizzy when it’s damaged. When the protective fat layer on the outside of the hair’s cuticle is removed, it loses its shine and becomes difficult to manage or style according to the Academy of Dermatology. A vitamin E-rich oil can help replace that protective layer and bring back shine. Oil in general also helps seal out moisture, reduce breakage, and protect the hair from damageTrusted Source.

• Support a healthy scalp

Vitamin E is essential for healthy skin — and this includes your scalp. Poor scalp health is linked to lackluster hair qualityTrusted Source. Vitamin E supports the scalp and gives your hair a strong base to grow from by reducing oxidative stress and preserving the protective lipid layer.
