If dry fall air is wrecking your waves and curls, leaving you with flyaways, try these oils that won’t weigh down your hair. They can be used to spot-treat frizzy, dull strands or impart an all-over sheen. For best results, start with a drop or two and add more in small increments, particularly if you have fine hair.
1. SheaMoisture 100% Pure Argan Oil
Argan oil is filled with nutrients and essential fatty acids to keep your hair and skin soft and healthy. 100% pure Argan Oil leaves you with moisturized, shiny hair that does not feel greasy. You can use it to heal dry skin patches, too.
2. Kinky-Curly Perfectly Polished
This wonder-blend contains apricot kernel oil that deeply penetrates the scalp to moisturize it and keep it flake-free, Argan oil for lightly moisturized waves that glow from within, and Abyssinian and wheat germ oil for stronger strands. This polishing oil blend is mineral oil, petroleum, and silicone-free, so it will not build up on your hair.
3. Alikay Naturals Glazed Argan
A tried-and-true favorite of many stylists, Argan oil will not only make your hair look healthier, but it will also improve its condition as well. It strengthens hair and helps to seal split ends. It locks in moisture, too, for all-day protection against frizz. Glazed Argan has a beautiful raspberry and vanilla scent that you are sure to love.
4. All I Need Naturally Baobab Growth Oil Cocktail
Baobab Growth Oil Cocktail is a blend of oils and infused herbs that are known for their hair-strengthening and scalp-soothing properties. Calendula, lavender, tea-tree, and peppermint will banish flakes and a dry scalp, while nettles help you to grow stronger hair.
Baobab and olive oils will smooth and seal the hair shaft to reduce breakage and help restore elasticity to dry strands. Silk amino acids penetrate deep within the cuticle to moisturize even in low-humidity environments. This oil-blend is free of sulfates, parabens, and artificial fragrances.
5. Curl Girl Moisture Fix Daily Shine Oil
Spray on the shine with Curl Girl Moisture Fix Daily Shine Oil for finished, polished, bouncy waves. This wave-loving formula can also be used as a pre-poo or as a refresher for strands that have lost their mojo.
6. HPO Butter Drops
With the bright scents of citrus and lavender and the moisturizing power of jojoba, these butter drops will perk up your waves and your senses. You can also use this natural oil blend to help add shine to your tresses, and to moisturize dry skin and a dry scalp.
7. Camille Rose Naturals Herbal Tea Seal & Soften
Camille Rose has brewed up hair-loving goodness with this tea for your tresses. It contains an infusion of nettle, patchouli, sage, marigold, and lavender in olive and jojoba oils to leave your hair hydrated and super soft. Your waves will be radiantly shiny with this fragrant formula.
8. Moisture Love Seal with a Kiss Finishing Oil
Perfect for a variety of hair textures and densities, this luscious blend of avocado, Argan, macadamia, castor, and meadowfoam seed oils will keep your hair growing gorgeous. It can be used as both a finishing oil or a moisturizing treatment.
NaturallyCurly Shopper Briana writes: “Perfect. I have now bought four bottles of this oil. It smells so good. I have very thick hair, so I usually use heavier oils, but this one is light, and it does the trick for me. My daughter has thin to medium hair, and it’s perfect for her, too. I massage it on my scalp and use it as a finishing oil.”
