We love using Argan Oil in natural Hair care products. It's rich supply of fatty acids, squalene, and Vitamin E make it so nourishing to dry and damaged tresses. This simple recipe uses Argan Oil and honey, a natural humectant, to moisturize, fortify, and replenish the hair and scalp.
Our Shea Butter Shampoo Base is included to make the mask easy to rinse and remove. It also makes this recipe fantastic for removing built up hair products like pomades and waxes. If you use heavy duty styling products regularly, adding this mask to your weekly haircare routine is a great idea.
Arnica and Rosemary Essential Oils finish off this easy formulation by adding a boost of properties to encourage a healthy scalp and a shiny happy head of hair.
Our Argan Honey Hair Mask recipe is suitable for most hair types, but is most useful for those with dry, damaged, or product-laden hair. Please note that this mask recipe has been formulated for adults. To use on children, please omit essential oils and extracts. Children under two years old should not use honey either.
