However, Dr. Lin warns consumers to be conscious shoppers when looking to invest in a CBD hair product because there's always the possibility of being scammed into something that can't offer real benefits. "Many products want to be marketed under the cannabis umbrella, including those that are based on hemp seed oil, so you may see a cannabis plant on the label, but this does not necessarily mean it contains CBD," he says. "These products do not possess the same anti-inflammatory benefits of CBD, but they do contain essential fatty acids which can nourish and hydrate the hair and scalp."
