Arvazallia Argan Oil for Hair Treatment Leave in Treatment & Conditioner

I was desperate to find an affordable product that would help my long, fine, and flyaway hair to settle down! I recently moved from a humid climate in the southeast to the southwest desert and my hair now snaps, crackles, and pops sending sparks zipping through the air. When you were a kid, did you ever rub a balloon on your hair to produce static electricity, which then caused your hair to stand up? Well, that is my hair in the desert sans balloon. Not pretty! My hair attaches itself to my clothing and floats in the air up around my ears! I've moisturized and conditioned. I've applied other products but either of two things happened, after an hour or so my hair would be dancing around my ears again or it was limp and oily looking! I want silky, soft, shiny, calm, and in its place hair; not oily-limp. This Argan Oil does the trick on my hair. It is now smooth and shiny!I apply the oil while my hair is still damp after shampooing and conditioning. I smooth the oil on the ends of my hair from ear level to the tips. I particularly pay attention to the very ends making sure to apply enough oil to not just tame but treat them. I don't apply the oil all the way to the scalp on a daily basis. I do however use this oil once per week on my scalp. I apply it directly to my scalp, this takes several squirts. I rub it in well and leave it on while I do things about the house. Later, I shampoo and condition and then reapply the oil as described above.I also apply this oil on my skin. Since moving to the desert, I'm about to dry up and blow away with the tumbleweeds! One morning, after doing my hair I was enjoying the feeling of the oil on the palms of my hands. So, I pumped a bit more and smoothed it on the back of my hands. Ooh! I pumped a bit more and smoothed the oil over my forehead. Ahh! From then on, I went crazy and dobbed it around my eyes, cheeks, and throat, avoiding the T-zone area. I love this stuff. I'm old enough to be past breakouts to my skin so using it thus is not a problem for me. I also don't apply it to my skin on a daily basis as I have facial moisturizers with sunscreen that I love and use. However, this argan oil feels marvelous on my skin! It's great on my nails and cuticles. And you know what else? I've used it on my feet! At first, I just rubbed some in and then I had the brilliant idea, well, I thought it was brilliant, of putting a few pumps in a pan of water, and soaking my feet in it! Ding, ding, winner!This oil smells fabulous! The fragrance is warm and soft. It isn't an overpowering, make your eyes water, and your nose sneeze kind of scent. It's soft and wafting. Which is a darned good thing since I now am covered in it...head to toe.You might laugh but you know where else I use this amazing oil? On my dog's fly-away hair! Yes, I do! Boone is a Shih-Tzu and the hair on his long tail and ears is also acting up and flying around in this desert clime, hey, he can't be walking around looking like that! I'm a good dog-mother and will not let my little guy be embarrassed in the neighborhood! This great product works on his hair too! And he looks, hot!I highly recommend this product if you have a similar need to mine...and Boone's!

I would usually think an oil would be too heavy for my hair. It's blonde, and it has gotten drier through the years, but I don't want to weigh it down. After shampoo/condition I sprayed my Miracle 10 for blondes underneath and on the bottom half of my hair to the ends. That's more of a conditioning spray. I have to use something else to avoid flyaways. I used the Argan oil while it was still damp, and I noticed my hair was silkier and more manageable. I took a chance and used it this morning on dry hair, since the bottom half looked a little dry, and the top had a few strands sticking up. I don't shampoo every day, because I have long hair and don't want to dry it out any more than necessary. It did just what I wanted - added a little shine and made it look less dry before I touched it up. I used maybe a dime size on my palm, rubbed my hands together and spread it lightly over a section, then repeated as needed. I probably did that three times in all, different areas. I thought it would be better than too much at once. This is a keeper! I'd order again.Update: I went out of town without it. I used my Coppola Keratin shampoo and conditioner as usual. My hair did NOT do as well!!!! I used my Argan oil night before last and even went to bed with it wet. It's usually out of control looking the next morning. It didn't look bad straight out of bed, but I flat-ironed it as usual. The next morning I almost didn't have to do anything to it!! It looked soft, shiny, and was behaving great. I have almost zero frizziness when using the Argan oil. I'm a firm believer now. It amazes me that I can even reapply to dry hair when needed, and it doesn't weigh it down. Obviously, I don't overdo it, but I still use more than I'd think I could get by with. I compared it to another brand, which has great reviews - the HSI, since I have that flat iron. I used the HSI brand twice to give it a chance, then went back to this one. This one wins hands down - can't believe the difference. My sister bragged on my hair yesterday when I used it, and I didn't use the conditioning spray first. (I still use a thermal spray after it's dry, before I flat-iron.) No other brand from now on!!! I think this one's even less, and you get a good size for the money.
