About Hair Oil Blends

Hair oils and hair oil blends are really popular recently (and probably have been for a while) so I made a video talking a bit about the different hair oil blends I've tried and the differences in ingredients.

You can watch the video, but I'll also mention some of the highlights below the video.


So the first one is the 'Dove Hair Therapy, Nourishing Oil Care, Detangler'. This one is a spray so it has filler ingredients such as water, it has sweet almond oil and argan oil, and two colors (yelow 5 and red 33). I love how easy it is to apply, it feels great on my hair, it's cheap, and easy to find. Find more info here.

Next is the 'Macadamia Healing Oil Treatment' (1oz). This one comes in a screw top glass bottle, it has argan oil and macadamia oil, it has four colors (green 6, red 17, violet 2, and yellow 11. The website does not list all ingredients as on bottle), it didn't work well with my hair, it's expensive, and I would have to order online to get it. Find more info here.

Next is the 'Sexy Hair Healthy Sexy Soy Renewal Argan Oil Treatment'(0.85oz). This one comes in a plastic bottle with a pop top cap. It has argan oil and sunflower seed oil, two colors (red 17 and yellow 11), it works great on my hair, it's fairly expensive, and I can find it in any salon. Find more info here.

Last is the 'Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Moroccan Argan Styling Oil'. This one comes in a plastic bottle with a pump. I have not tried it but the ingredient list is what I'm comparing. It has argan oil, sweet almond oil, and coconut oil. It does not contain colors, and it only has 9 ingredients total. It's cheap, and easy to find. I can't tell you how well it works in my hair but I 'swatched' it on my hand and it absorbed quickly, was not greasy, and left my hand feeling soft. Find more info here.

You can purchase all of these from amazon. Below are the sizes I have, however the macadamia oil and the healthy sexy hair are also available in larger sizes.
