THE BENEFITS OF HEMP OIL FOR YOUR BEARD, MOUSTACHE, SKIN & HAIR GROWTH

One of the main ingredients in our traditional beard oil and a major component of our beard balm is Cannabis Sativa Seed Oil (also known as Hemp Oil). Now before you start tut..tutting, or getting excited, hemp oil is perfectly legal to use even though it is easy to confuse the legal hemp plant with the not so legal, marijuana plant.

is cannabis sativa seed oil legal?

Although both plant types, the industrial hemp and the marijuana plant are both classified as cannabis, only marijuana from the dried leaves of cannabis sativa contains the active chemical, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive and hallucinogenic properties which cause users to get 'high' and 'chilled'.

Hemp seed oil does not contain these psychoactive constituents and is produced by pressing the plants seeds which results in the glorious green tinged good stuff.

Although hemp seed oil does not contain any traceable amounts of THC which causes the psychoactive effects associated with marijuana use it does have many magical benefits.

This industrial hemp is perfectly legal in most parts of the World, Europe and the USA and is used to produce cosmetics, food, and other products that you probably use every day. OK so now we have cleared that up, lets get onto why Hemp Oil is such a good product for you to use in your beard and hair.
