Can oily hair use essential oil?

Oily hair can be treated with essential oils. Essential oils can replace leave-in conditioners because they are safer.

You may have heard that conditioners contain silicone. The reason for adding silicone is to make hair smoother. Although there is a reason for this, it is still not recommended to use it too much. But hair care oils are different. They are safe and can effectively nourish hair. Using them instead of leave-in conditioners is also a good idea.

Hair care essential oil is actually a better alternative. It can be used not only on the scalp, but also on the hair. It can clean the scalp, massage and relieve stress, and repair damaged hair.

How to judge the quality of hair care essential oil

1. Smell the aroma

When we choose hair care essential oil, we must smell its fragrance. Inferior hair care essential oils usually have a strong fragrance and are often made of chemical substances. High-quality hair care essential oils are made by extracting natural plant essences.

Tips for selection: We choose two bottles of different hair care essential oils and drop two drops of each on the back of the hand, let it sit for a few minutes, and use the nose to judge. If the fragrance is very strong, it means that its fragrance is very strong, indicating that it is a low-quality hair care essential oil. If it exudes a light floral scent, it means that this hair care essential oil is made from pure natural plant essences and can be selected.

2. Smoothness

Smoothness is also very important for a bottle of hair oil. Hair oil with poor smoothness will feel sticky when used, and the hair will condense into lumps and become tangled with each other. Hair oil with good smoothness will not have lumps, and has a continuous texture and strong fluidity.

Tips for choosing: We drop a little hair care oil on the palm of our hands, then rub our hands together to spread it, and carefully observe its ductility and smooth texture during the spreading process, and then separate the two hands to see if there is any stickiness. If it meets these standards of good ductility, smooth texture and no stickiness, it means that this is a bottle of high-quality hair care oil.

3. Mildness

The purpose of using hair care oil is to smooth frizzy hair, so the first thing is to close the dry and arched hair scales so that the hair can be shiny and smooth. To close the hair scales, the pH value of the hair care oil should not be too high or too low, otherwise the hair will be easily damaged.

Selection Tips: Put two drops of hair care oil on the pH test paper, use a pH meter to read the pH value of the hair care oil, and then observe the reading. The closer it is to the natural pH value of hair, pH 5.5, the milder the nature of the hair care oil is, and it is nourishing and non-irritating to use.

4. Absorption

When choosing hair care oil, its absorbency is also a very important indicator. For most girls, the most feared thing is that using hair care oil will result in the hair becoming greasy due to the slow absorption speed, and it will also affect the health and beauty of the hair.

Selection Tips: How to test the absorbency. We apply the hair care oil on the hair until it is evenly applied, then use oil-absorbing tissue to press the hair, and then observe the oil stains on the oil-absorbing tissue. The fewer the oil stains, the faster the absorption speed of this hair care oil. On the contrary, if there are many oil stains, Xiao Yao recommends not to choose it.

Can hair oil be used together with hair mask?

1. Use with hair mask to increase the absorption effect of hair mask

When using a hair mask to care for your hair, add 2 drops of leave-in essential oil to the mask and stir evenly. The effect will be increased by 1-2 times.

2. Use with shampoo to make hair smooth and shiny
