Hair oils are used to hydrate, smooth, and shield the hair from thermal tools and technical processes like dyes and highlight color cream products. They offer smooth , shiny and healthy hair plus they smell great and give us a sense of well-being!
Just like our skin, our hair needs the necessary greasiness in order to have strong and healthy hair. But some people happen to have oilier hair than others.
The hair oils we buy are meant to complement and regenerate the natural oils our bodies make on their own, so we use them in places where we want to supplement the natural oil.
Is hair oil for you?
Everyone can benefit from using hair oils. But there are a few things to consider - particularly your hair type and texture.
Curly hair
Curly hair is naturally more dehydrated; hence hair oils make wonders not only on the hair but also on the scalp, providing the necessary oiliness.
It can be used on the roots all the way to the ends without making the hair oily, and it’s great for achieving shiny and smooth curls without frizz.
Dry and dehydrated hair or hair that has been subjected to heavy technical work.
In case you have damaged or dehydrated hair, hair oils will help you, as they lock in the moisture that your hair needs.
If your hair is thin and straight avoid applying near the roots.
Apply the product in small amounts at the ends of your hair.
Apply the hair oil
It is best to apply the oil to wet hair and carefully comb it through to ensure that the product reaches every part of the hair in order for the oil's therapeutic properties to be effective.
The amount you should use varies depending on the amount and type of hair you have, but generally, small amounts are preferable.
The hair oil can also be used to add shine to your hairstyle, on ends, and on dry hair.
Last but not least. You can use hair oil after washing your hair as a hair treatment.
You can apply the oil from the root all the way to the ends and then use appropriate shampoo for your hair type, and always conditioner afterwards to lock in the moisture and nutrients in your hair.
Remember to avoid the following
If you apply hair oil to your hair, DO NOT use a hair iron or blow dryer as a finishing touch to your hairstyle.
This will have negative effect on your hair.
Remember to always use hair oil LAST as a styling, moisturizing and shine product when applied to dry hair.
