Hair Oils - Which Should You Choose?

Hair Oils - Which Should You Choose?

Switching to a non-toxic skincare routine is HUGE, but your scalp is just like the skin on your face! It’s important to make sure our hair care routines are just as clean as our skincare routines. We offer hair care products made by us and by vendors we trust. You can find them all in one place by choosing “Hair Care” on our site’s main menu.

For now, we are going to focus on the two hair oils offered under our Root Apothecary label. In this article you will find...

  • A description of both Mane Hair Oil and Curls Styling Oil including their benefits, who they are for, and how to use them
  • A flow chart to help you decide which products are right for you along with your recommended routine

 

Mane Hair + Scalp Oil Treatment

We approached the formulation of this product the same way we did our #1 best seller Tallow Face Serum: by asking our customers their biggest hair and scalp concerns. We set out to solve all of them with one AFFORDABLE product that would work for every hair type.

Who is it For?

  • Everyone! We formulated this oil to benefit each and every hair type. 

Benefits: 

  • New Growth marula, shea, and baobab oils revive hair follicles and foster fuller hair growth
  • Lasting Moisture nutrient dense fatty acids encourage scalp health and prevent hair strands from drying out
  • Strength bioavailable nutrients promote hair elasticity while discouraging breakage, resulting in more length
  • Bye-Bye Build Up lemon and orange oil help break down buildup for a refreshed scalp and healthier looking and feeling hair

How to Use:

  • Apply oil directly to scalp using the dropper, then gently massage using circular motions to stimulate blood flow and promote absorption. Work the remaining oil down the length of your hair, from roots to ends. Wait at least 30 minutes to shower, or overnight. Repeat at least once per week.

Curls Styling Oil

Our owner/founder/formulator has curly hair. She was never able to find a CLEAN curly hair oil that actually worked. So she set out to make one herself and ended up loving it more than the toxic product she was using.

Who is it For?

  • Curls oil is obviously for those with coily, curly, and wavy hair, but it can also be used by people without curly hair! Use it to mend split ends, tame fly-aways, or as a gentle hair perfume!

Benefits: 

  • Volume castor oil breaks the cast formed by your curl gel, allowing for voluminous, soft, long lasting curls
  • Shine okra seed oil and gardenia extract help add softness and shine while protecting and repairing damaged hair
  • Anti-Frizz jojoba oil closely mimics natural scalp oils, smoothing frizz and adding moisture to prevent split ends
  • Split End Mend shea oil seals in moisture, reducing frizz and helping to mend split ends

How to Use:

  • Curly Girls After washing, style your hair and let dry completely. Add a few drops of oil to your hands, rub together, then scrunch into hair to promote volume and shine while preventing frizz and sealing in moisture.
  • For Mending Split Ends & Taming Fly Aways Add a few drops to your hands, then apply to your ends/fly-aways as needed.
  • For Perfuming Apply a small amount to your palms then run your hands through your hair.
