Oh, argan oil. You beauty superhero. All hair types love you, everyone raves about you, you are rumored to do magnificent things to hair.
And you do!
I was offered this Elixir Argan Oil product as an add-on to an order from Julep and, at the discount I was getting, I jumped for it. It’s supposed to be really great and this one is actually Curly Girl friendly (Moroccan Oil brand is NOT and therefore I won’t touch it no matter how many people insist it’s amazing).
Initially, I was honestly a little disappointed. This bottle is SMALL and I get a little dropper to use it? I thought “I have too much hair! I’ll use all of this in one go!”
Thankfully not. For the first use, I wanted to just put some on the ends of my hair to see what that would do. I flipped my mane upside down and worked approximately 4 droppers worth of the oil onto my ends. Tied my hair up in a knot and went about making dinner and such. It saturated about 4 inched up my hair both through application and time.
Go in to shower and I can already feel a difference before I’ve even applied my co-wash. Instantly sold. Post-shower but pre-product, I applied one dropper’s worth throughout the bottom half of my hair, mid-mane through ends. Just raked it in like I would a leave-in conditioner.
My ends are usually pretty dry and are the first bit of my hair to show wear and tear. This has breathed new life back into them! The oil I put in post-shower has left some great softness and shine without making my head look greasy.
I highly recommend this product to anyone with dry hair or who just wants to give their locks some extra love.
I’ve heard it’s good for skin and nails as well. I may try it out on my cuticles and see how that works.
This sounds really good! I am a fan of Moroccan Argon Oil but maybe I would like this too! Great review 🙂

Moroccan Argan Oil brand is everywhere but, alas, I’ve found most of their products have silicones or other things I won’t put in my hair.

Julep is a wonderful brand. They’re cruelty free with many if not all of their products being vegan. They support organizations that empower women. They do a ton of awesome stuff AND put out a great product. 100% recommend!

It really is wonderful. My ends always get really kinky and dry and the argan oil helps keep them manageable. I especially love putting some in at night before bed and washing it out in the morning. My hair always feels so soft!

I wonder though how do you know which is the best one

I don’t know that there’s a way to know that for certain. I decided on this one because the product didn’t contain any sulfates or silicone and because I got it at a deep discount for my membership on their site. For people who are less constrained by cost of product and who take greater risks with the products they put into their hair, they could easily try several and compare. It’s all about researching the product and trying to figure out what you think will work best for you and your hair.
