How to Use Ordinary Argan Oil on Hair?

Published in Hair Care 2 mins read

To use The Ordinary Argan Oil 100% Organic Cold-Pressed on your hair, work it through damp, clean hair once daily, or as needed.

Here's a more detailed breakdown of how to effectively incorporate argan oil into your hair care routine:

Application Tips

  • Start with a small amount: Argan oil is potent, so begin with just a few drops (1-3) and add more as needed, depending on your hair length and thickness. You can always add more, but you can't take it away!
  • Apply to damp, clean hair: Damp hair absorbs the oil better than dry hair. Applying it to clean hair ensures that you're not sealing in dirt or product buildup.
  • Work through mid-lengths and ends: Focus the oil on the driest parts of your hair, which are typically the mid-lengths and ends. Avoid applying too much directly to your scalp, as this can lead to oiliness.
  • Distribute evenly: Use your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to distribute the oil evenly throughout your hair.
  • Style as usual: After applying the oil, you can style your hair as you normally would.

Frequency

  • Once daily or as needed: The frequency of use depends on your hair type and its needs. If you have dry, damaged hair, you may benefit from daily use. If you have oily hair, you may only need to use it once or twice a week.
  • Adjust based on your hair's response: Pay attention to how your hair feels and looks after using argan oil. If it feels greasy or heavy, reduce the amount you're using or the frequency of application.

Benefits of Argan Oil for Hair

  • Adds Shine: Argan oil can improve hair's luster and make it look healthier.
  • Reduces Frizz: It helps tame frizz and flyaways, leaving hair smoother.
  • Moisturizes: Argan oil is a great moisturizer for dry hair.
  • Protects from Heat: It can provide some protection from heat styling tools.

Precautions

  • Irritation: If you experience any irritation, such as itching or redness, rinse the oil off immediately, discontinue use, and consult a physician.
  • Patch Test: If you have sensitive skin, consider doing a patch test on a small area of your skin before applying argan oil to your hair.

By following these guidelines, you can effectively use The Ordinary Argan Oil to improve the health and appearance of your hair.
