Over to you MJ Snyder
From quenching dry, brittle strands to reducing frizz, protecting from UV and heat damage, and adding shine, the plant-derived oil has become a staple product for many as its benefits cater to all hair types, textures and lengths.
“Using Argan Oil-infused products can significantly improve hair health over time,” says MJ. “It’s a great ingredient for both daily styling and deeper hair treatments, ensuring your hair stays beautiful and manageable all summer long.”
“Argan Oil is renowned for its moisturising and nourishing properties. It not only helps to hydrate and soften hair, reduce frizz, and add beautiful shine, but it also provides essential nutrients that promote hair health and protect against damage from styling tools and environmental factors.”
She adds: “I absolutely adore U Oil because it provides incredible shine and smoothness without feeling greasy. It’s lightweight, yet deeply nourishing, making it perfect for all hair types.”
Hair hacks
“One of my favourite summer hair hacks using Argan Oil is to add 1-2 pumps to your conditioner or hair mask for an extra boost of moisture. I like 7SECONDS Conditioner or 7SECONDS Masque. You can also use a small amount on your fingertips to smooth and define curls or waves when they are dry,” says MJ.
While most Argan Oil products come in the form of a serum or oil, it can also be infused into creams, lotions and dry styling sprays so no matter what step in your routine you are in, you are reaping the benefits of this holy grail, hair ingredient.
“SMOOTH&SHINE Styling Cream and BOING Moisture Curl Cream are two other personal favourites from the UNITE collection that are great for summer styling. Both products harness the power of Argan Oil to nourish, define, and protect the hair, making them perfect additions to a summer hair care routine” says MJ.
