🪄 How to Pick the Right Hair Oil for Your Hair Needs

Shine, Strength & Scalp Support – Naturally

Looking for the perfect hair oil but overwhelmed by all the options? Whether your goal is growth, gloss, or a soothed scalp, the right oil can transform your hair care ritual. Here’s how to choose the best one for your unique hair needs.


🌀 Step 1: Know Your Hair Type + Porosity

Hair Porosity Matters:

  • Low Porosity → repels moisture → choose lightweight oils

  • High Porosity → loses moisture easily → choose rich, sealing oils

Hair Type Considerations:

  • Fine Hair → needs light oils (no buildup!)

  • Thick / Curly Hair → can handle heavier, richer oils

  • Oily / Dry Scalp → look for scalp-balancing oils


🌿 Step 2: Match Oil to Your Hair Goals

Hair Goal Best Oils
Shine & Smoothness Argan, Broccoli Seed
Strength & Repair Pumpkin Seed, Castor, Baobab
Scalp & Growth Jojoba, Rosemary (diluted), Neem
Hydration & Softness Sweet Almond, Coconut (for thick/dry hair only)

✨ Step 3: Use Oils the Right Way

🧖♀️ Scalp Treatment:
Apply a few drops to your scalp, massage gently, and leave on for 30+ minutes (or overnight) before washing.

💧 Pre-Shampoo Oil Ritual:
Apply to dry hair before washing to prevent moisture loss and damage.

💫 Leave-In Gloss:
Warm a few drops in your hands and smooth over ends and mid-lengths. Perfect for frizz control and shine.


🌸 Pro Tips for Picking the Right Product

✅ Choose cold-pressed, unrefined oils
✅ Look for dark glass bottles to protect nutrients
✅ Avoid synthetic fragrances — opt for pure essential oil blends
✅ Multi-oil blends (like Wildsett’s Revival Elixirs) offer layered benefits in one step


🌟 Listen to Your Hair

Hair changes with the seasons, stress, hormones, and more. Be flexible and adjust your ritual when needed. What works today may evolve tomorrow — and that’s okay.
