I've been using Moroccan oil for 3-4 years. Along with Moreish Argan oil, this oil is my cant-live-without oil. Admittedly, I was very skeptical at first. My hair can become very oily after a day (especially during summer and hot, humid weather) so thinking of applying oil really startles me. But one of my friends who is a professional hair stylist convinced me about its effect and show me how to use it. He showed my some tips:
1. Using as a conditional product: either mix it with shampoo or applying in between the two wash. It helps maintaining the moisture balance for hair yet prevents exceeded oil .
2. For styling, after dye or straightening, this oil can be used in the first 5 days or first week after treatment.
3. After blow dry, he advised me to put some in the palm and "heat" it up before applying to the hair. Imagine your hands are like big combs.
I never use hair conditioner as I stick with moroccan oil and argan oil. This product has an amazing effect to me, especially with the parts of hair that "suffers" because of chemical treatment. As I mixed oil with shampoo, I realise my hair is stronger and much less hair loss.
I agree this product is a little expensive, but the bottle is huge and it can last you for ages. The amazing scent is also a plus for me, always think of an expensive spa every time using this.
I first tried this product years ago at a friends birthday. She had a brand new bottle and was raving about how amazing it was so I squirted it all over my hand and proceeded to turn my hair into a greasy mess. Fast forward to a smarter time and I now rate this product as the best that money can buy.
You only need a teeny tiny squirt into the palm of you hand to get amazing results. It smells absolutely divine and feels incredible. I use it when I'm freshly showered and my hair is still damp. I spread it through the mid lengths and ends of my hair while avoiding the roots. It makes my hair dry faster, it leaves it silky and smooth & it seriously repairs!
I notice a massive improvement in the condition of my hair after using this product and no other argan oil treatment I've found can compare.
I've heard from a few people that it's just a glorified product and I'd be better off buying pure argan oil but I disagree! Pure argan oil is hard to distribute evenly in my hair, it doesn't smell as good and it doesn't repair my hair like this does. I will always rate this as the best!
