People have been using castor oil, a versatile vegetable oil, for thousands of years.
Castor oil pack wraps are becoming more and more popular as a liver detox, treatment for dry skin, arthritis,  period cramping, scar tissue and constipation.
Castor oil is a popular natural hair treatment. This is due to the moisturising qualities of castor oil, which may aid in lubricating the hair shaft, enhancing its elasticity and lowering  breakage.
