The best hair oil is…
The best hair oil is coconut oil or argan oil for most hair types. Search the ingredients on the back of your shampoo or conditioner for Argania Spinosa Kernel Oil (for argan oil) or Cocos Nucifera Oil for coconut oil.
Both coconut and argan oil is known to protect hair pre and post-colour treatment and even reduce day-to-day combing damage. These oils also help reduce the diffusion of water into and out of the hair preventing or limiting damage called hygral fatigue.

We at HairKnowHow have used both the coconut and argan oils ourselves for over a year, and they work very well, either on their own (by applying a couple of drops into a spray bottle with some water and then evenly spraying onto your hair) or when adding them to your favourite conditioner. Let us know how you get on.
Coconut oil does have a slightly sweet, nutty fragrance that some may not like. Argan oil does not have a strong smell but exhibits many of the benefits of coconut oil and so is a great alternative.
Argan oil is the most expensive edible oil, and coconut is one of the cheapest. The truth is that both will serve your hair well!
