Moroccan Argan Oil - improve the look, health, and feel of your hair

by Jodi Smith

Nutrient-rich Moroccan argan oil for hair is made from the kernels of the argan nut, which is found inside the fruit of the argan tree, native to Morocco. The fruit is dried, the nuts extracted, cracked, and either ground or pressed for the oil to be extracted, which then becomes argan oil and yes Moroccan oil and Argan oil are the same thing.

Moroccan Argan oil benefits

Moroccan oil is packed with omega fatty acids. It also boasts vitamin E and linoleum acids for light moisturization. Argan oil quickly helps to tame frizz and fly-aways, protect against the heat of hair dryers, curlers and flat irons, all the while promoting body, and a healthy shine.

1. Increased Moisture and Shine

The moisturizers and antioxidants in argan oil will help to add shine to your hair and eliminate dryness and frizz.

2. Promotes Hair Growth

The antioxidants and vitamins in argan oil promote cell production which in turn promotes hair growth.

3. It can help with dandruff (yes, really)

If you are suffering from a dry & itchy scalp, the moisture it contains can also relieve irritation caused by a dry scalp.

4. It protects your hair from breakage

Vitamin E helps to increase hair's elasticity, making it less prone to breakage. Additionally, the oil is a powerful antioxidant, protecting the hair against UV and free radical damage.

5. It’s an amazing detangler

Argan oil has smaller molecules, meaning it can penetrate the hair more effectively. When the oil's nutrients are absorbed better, the hair is softer, making it less prone to tangling

6. It seals split ends and smooth's frizz

Vitamin E and the omega fatty acids found in argan oil provide moisture and protection to split ends or damaged hair shafts.

7. Guard against hair loss

Some forms of hair loss and breakage are often caused by an unhealthy scalp. By using Moroccan Argan oil shampoo, you can help nourish as well as protect your scalp from damage by restoring and locking in moisture, lessening the risk of hair loss.

How often should I use Moroccan Argan oil?

How often you use argan oil depends on your hair type and the condition of it. If you have dry, damaged or frizzy hair, then you may find it best to use the oil every day to continually benefit from its revitalizing effects.

If you would describe your hair condition as normal though, you may gain enough of the oils benefits from using it just once or twice a week. Hair can easily be damaged by the sun and humidity or regular colour services, so using a little argan oil in your hair care routines will help to protect against these.

However, when the products are used together for more than one successive wash and you finding your hair to be noticeably weighed down or is left looking a little heavy and without it’s usual movement. Then I’ve found that if I use the Moroccan Oil shampoo with a lighter conditioner, or a more clarifying shampoo with the Moroccan Oil conditioner, they both work really well and will leave your hair looking healthy and shiny.

There are a number of ways to experience the goodness of argan oil:

As a protective spray
As a hydrating hair mask
As a shine-inducing hair oil
As a hair wash

How to use Moroccan oil Shampoo & Conditioner

When argan oil is applied to wet hair you can really reap the oil's detangling and heat protection benefits before blow-drying and styling.

Massage the Moroccan Argan oil Shampoo throughout wet hair and scalp. Continue to add water to activate a rich lather from the highly concentrated formula. Rinse thoroughly until water runs clear. Repeat if needed. Apply the Argan oil Conditioner as needed.
