I have as many different kinds of hair oils as I do body lotions…take from that what you will! To avoid build-up, I try to use a different brand every day. And since the weather has been so dry and windy lately, my beautiful permed and colored hair is slowly turning into a wiry, dry mess!
Thankfully, I just discovered Moroccanoil Oil Treatment, a hair serum derived from the Argan tree found only in southwest Morocco. The fruit this tree yields is similar to a very big, round olive. Inside the fruit is a large nut that has three kernels that produce this unique oil. Moroccan women have used it on their hair and nails for centuries to combat their desert climate. I’m not even in the desert and this is, by far, the most amazing hair oil I have ever used. It absorbs so quickly there is no residual greasiness on the hair shaft. You just need the smallest amount to revive, strengthen, and condition your hair. There is also a light oil version, if you prefer. I bought mine online, but you can check out your local beauty supply store for this African gem! At Moroccanoil for $40.
You should try using just 100% Argan Oil. Moroccanoil has a lot of silicones and other fillers in it and my hair has been so much healthier since I switched from that to the 100% argan oil. You use a lot less too and it’s cheaper as well.
I use this on my daughter, it’s a great hair de-tangler as well!
I swear by M.O. I love the entire line, especially the shampoo and conditioner. I love the scent and the texture. The sulfate free factor is also attractive. I recommend it to all my clients.
I have fine thin hair and I find I can only use Moroccanoil once a week or it gets really limp. I have the one for fine hair. I think I will try to find the 100% Argan oil, thanks Joyce
I never understood all the hype with Moroccan Oil, it isn’t even made in Morocco, instead it is manufactured in Israel (that is what the bottle claims). If argan oil is really an expensive ingredient, then I would have to imagine that in order to manufacture a product overseas, then ship it to the US and put it at a price point that people will buy it, that they are doing MASSIVE production runs. Also, if this is manufactured in Israel, what are their manufacturing standards? For all I know this could have been made in a dirty lab, which is personally why I only buy products that are made here in the United States.
So looking at their site, Moroccan oil was founded by someone who was traveling in Morocco? So the person has no experience in developing hair care products or working in the hair care field? It seems all Moroccan oil has going for them is a great marketing team. If you buy this product you are a ‘child’ of their marketing campaigns.
