Its essential oil, often referred to as peppermint oil, is widely used for its cooling sensation and therapeutic properties, including relief from headaches, muscle pain, and digestive issues. In the context of hair and scalp care, peppermint oil is known for its potential to stimulate hair growth and improve scalp health due to its antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.
