TLDR : Yes, argan oil can be applied directly to dry hair, in fact, it is usually what is recommended as part of a typical hair care routine.
Argan oil is known for its moisturising and hydrating properties when applied routinely, with a few drops rubbed between your palms and massaged onto your scalp going a long way. These benefits include:
- Lifting dry and dull hair to give it a healthy and glossy / shiny finish.
- Giving you more control of your hair.
- Increasing the density and strength of your hair.
- Giving hair that healthy bounce and volume.
- Quick hydration, especially if you’re looking for a quick touch up.
Recommendations
Whilst argan oil infused products and blends can revitalise hair, we recommend the following:
- For best results, less is definitely more, you do not want to create an oil build up on your scalp resulting in blocked pores.
- Massage directly to your scalp to encourage a healthy environment and to tackle dry hair.
- If you are in between washes and just need a top up, apply from the mid to end of your hair.
- Try leave it in your hair for a few hours, whether that is overnight or through the day before washing.
