Avocado oil is great for moisturizing dry, brittle and damaged hair. It has a light weight formula that’s easily absorbed into the hair and scalp. It contains many nutrients such as vitamins A, B, D, E, protein, amino acids, iron, copper, magnesium, and folic acid.

Avocado nourishes and protects the hair, stimulates growth and unclogs follicles.

4. Sweet Almond Oil

Sweet almond oil helps to bring out your hairs natural shine and beauty. It also softens the hair and allows it to keep its elasticity, which keeps hair strong, manageable and growing.

A good source of vitamins A, B, D, and E sweet almond oil is rich in antioxidants and acts as an anti-inflammatory, making it ideal for maintaining moisture in your hair.

5. Argan Oil

Argan oil is a ultra-light non greasy oil that won’t weight the hair down.  It is rich in vitamin E and contains omega 3 and omega 9 fatty acids that provide nutrition for hair. It also contains Linoleic and oleic acid that helps to hydrate and moisturize hair.

Argan oil is able to penetrate the hair shaft and repair damaged hair follicles. It is immediately absorbed by the hair and it restores the lost moisture. It has the ability to increase the shine of lackluster, dry hair by locking in the moisture.
