Postpartum hair care without “stop the shed” promises · Prices in AUD
7 gentler shiftsFor the months when your hair—and your time—feel different
If you are seeing more hair in the shower or brush, you do not need another impossible routine or an oil that pretends it can change a postpartum hair cycle. We will show you what may be common, when to ask for advice and where our oil can make wash day feel simpler.
Start with what helps today
You do not have to diagnose yourself from the shower drain. Use this as a practical care guide, then speak with your doctor or dermatologist whenever your own pattern worries you.
Postpartum shedding commonly becomes noticeable around two to four months after birth rather than straight away. It can continue for several months as the hair cycle readjusts. Knowing that window may make the change less surprising, but it cannot tell you why your own hair is changing.
When time and energy are limited, simple wins. Handle wet hair gently, use a conditioner that suits your hair and detangle without rushing from the ends upward. You are not trying to perfect wash day—just make it easier to repeat.
A quick bun or ponytail can be practical without feeling tight. Rotate the styles that pull at your hairline, choose softer ties and lower the heat when you dry or style. These small shifts help you avoid adding unnecessary tension and damage to hair that already feels different.
Jump to the one-minute ends ritual or the fuller weekly pre-wash.
Care can be a small moment
Your ritual does not need to look perfect. It only needs to fit the day you are actually having.
Our founder, and a mother
“My hair is such a reflection of me—it holds my history, my emotions, my resilience.”
Our founder Allie Cameron is a mother whose relationship with her own hair helped shape HINU. After chronic stress changed that relationship, she drew on the plant knowledge and intentional care her Nana shared and created our oil as a ritual of reconnection.
That is why we keep the promise honest here: our oil can be a tactile moment of care and leave your hair feeling soft and smooth. It cannot change the postpartum hair cycle or replace advice about a change that concerns you.

Where our oil fits
Our Hair Growth Oil is a lightweight botanical cosmetic for your scalp and lengths. Use it to make hair feel soft and smooth and to bring a deliberate step to wash day. Do not use it as proof that you have treated postpartum shedding or identified its cause.
Have one minute? Smooth a few drops through the ends. Have more space before wash day? Use the full scalp-and-lengths ritual once weekly, leave it for at least one hour or overnight, then wash as usual. Both options keep the product in its cosmetic lane.
Choose our smaller 30ml bottle for $55 AUD, then use the ritual that fits your day.

Postpartum hair loss & regrowth :)
“I lost a scary amount of hair over the first 6 months postpartum. I started to use this religiously almost daily a few drops on the ends then 2/3 times a week full root massage after about 7 months. Iifelt so insecure about it at first but I followed along with the process & can’t believe how quickly it came back.”

HINU is truly magical!
“As a new postpartum mom, incorporating HINU into my routine has felt nothing short of enchanting. The beautiful aroma alone is captivating, and the way the oil feels on my hair and scalp has been a total game-changer—nourishing, soothing, and luxurious all at once.”
Quoted from verified Hair Growth Oil reviews; spelling is preserved. Photos were submitted by the reviewers. Individual experiences vary, and testimonials do not establish breastfeeding suitability or prove that Hair Growth Oil treats postpartum shedding.
These clips show individual product experiences and routines. They do not establish breastfeeding suitability or a result for postpartum shedding. Follow our current directions and check the full formula with your clinician if you are breastfeeding.
Two checks before you begin
We do not describe our oil as breastfeeding-safe. Take the complete formula to your midwife or doctor, consider your own allergies and sensitivities, and patch test before wider use if they are comfortable with the product.
*Organic. Always check the label on the product you receive in case the formula has been updated.
You know when something feels unusual for you. Speak with your doctor or a dermatologist if loss feels excessive, is sudden or patchy, includes scalp pain, redness or scaling, or has not returned toward your usual pattern by around one year after birth. Ask sooner whenever you are concerned.
One minute now, or a longer pause before wash day
Our directions separate the fuller weekly treatment from the much smaller amount used on your ends.
Work the oil through your hands, massage directly into the scalp, then run what remains through your mids and ends.
Leave it overnight if that suits you, or keep it to at least one hour, then wash your hair as usual.
Smooth a few drops through your ends in the morning, at night or whenever they need it.

30ml $55 AUD · 60ml $85 AUD
Our lightweight botanical oil is made for a weekly scalp-and-lengths ritual, with a few drops for the ends as needed. Both bottles contain the same formula.
Straight answers
It commonly becomes noticeable around two to four months after birth and can continue for several months. Timing varies, and only a clinician can assess the reason for your own hair change.
No. Our Hair Growth Oil is cosmetic scalp-and-lengths care. It can leave hair feeling soft and smooth, but it does not prevent or treat postpartum shedding or change the hair cycle.
We do not describe our oil as breastfeeding-safe. We recommend taking the complete ingredient list to your midwife or doctor before use, then patch testing before applying the product more widely.
Keep the fuller 2–3 dropper scalp-and-lengths application as a pre-wash ritual, then shampoo as usual. For care between washes, use only a few drops on the ends.
The 30ml bottle is $55 AUD and is our smaller starting size. The 60ml bottle is $85 AUD and contains double the oil. Both contain the same formula.
Seek individual advice if loss feels excessive, is sudden or patchy, involves scalp pain, redness or scaling, or has not returned toward your usual pattern by around one year after birth. Speak up sooner whenever you are concerned.
