We all want silky and smooth hair. I know I aspire to have hair like Shay Mitchel or Kim Kardashian.
There are so many products on the market that claim to give you long and beautiful hair. How do we know which ones are actually worth the money? When there are hundreds to choose from, it can be quite difficult.
Hair oils have become a trend in the beauty industry. Every hair company has their own version with different benefits. Some hair oils are meant to give you silky hair, some are meant to de-frizz that bee’s nest while others help to strengthen your hair and keep it look healthy. Whatever the case is, there’s a hair oil for it.
This type of product can be really intimidating. If you use too much you can end up looking like a greasy mess. I think many people are nervous to use hair oils because they are scared of making their hair look dirty. We all want our hair to have that gorgeous glisten without it feel oily. When using oils, keep in mind that they are supposed to last you a long time because of the small amount you should be applying. With most oils, you really only want a pea to dime size amount depending on how thick your hair is.
Also keep in mind when applying these oils, you want to just apply them to the ends of your hair. Putting the product on your scalp can give off a greasy hair look.
Whether you want to get rid of that frizzy look or maybe just protect your hair from the heat, give one of these 10 oils a try. Your hair will be looking and feeling beautiful.
