I wasn’t planning on buying this little gem but I stumbled across Argania liquid gold – light – for fair and fine hair which is just what my hair is, fine (long) and blonde. I have been dubious about oils before, I adore them on my face and body but having naturally blonde hair often means oils and products make my hair look greasy or dull but this was designed for me ! .
I only got a small bottle of this to test out before commiting to the bigger one so the 20ml comes in a little brown glass bottle with a black screw top lid. Nothing terribly fancy but similar to most oither oil type products.
The instructions say to apply a small amount to palms through to ends on damp or dry hairIt does have a slight fragrance to me it smells like it has a hint of vanilla and a slight scent similar to my rosehip oil but its very faint so even those who don’t like products with fragrance like myself can still enjoy it. . I decided to try this on damp hair first s it just feels more safe. I took a very small amount about the size of a pea or maybe a tiny bit larger and rubbed in my palms to heat up a little and spread throughout my hair from just above midlengths to ends and stayed away from my roots.
It has a very light consistency one of the lightest oils I have come across, it feels on your hand like it might be a bit greasy but its not at all. It absorbed very well and quickly into my hair. My hair thoroughly soaked it in and there was no greasy residue left on my palm – bonus.
Once my hair had dried there was no sign of greasyness or dullness which is the problem I’ve had with previous hair oils. I have problems with flyaways due to my hair being so fine and this smoothed those right away and gave my hair a lovely healthy shine to it.
This did exactly as it said for my hair it made my hair feel hydrated, healthy and shiny. I will definitely be buying again when this runs out - although you only need such a small amount you wont need to replace to often.
I would definitely recommend for those with finer flyaway hair or fairer hair that cant handle the stronger oils.
I use this oil as a daily leave in conditioner. Right out of the shower, I like to put this on my hair. It acts as an excellent detangler. I have really long black hair and just two drops are enough. I bought a 100 ml bottle 5 months ago and I have been using this oil daily and still half the bottle is remaining. So, I feel its quite economical. It is not 100 percent argan oil, but actually a mix of different oils including sweet almond, jojoba, macademia, primrose and carrot oil and it is paraben free too.The consistency of oil is light and you don't actually feel that you have applied any oil on hair as you use just a drop or two. After using this oil for 5 months, I feel my hair are a lot more healthier and shinier. All the split ends have gone. I use it as a heat protectant as well. I use a straightener or a curling iron once a week and just before that I apply this oil. And the heat doesn't damage my hair. So, its a total win, win and win!
