STEAL VS. SPLURGE: Moroccan Oil

Have you ladies ever tried Moroccan Oil? I absolutely love it. They Also have this Hair Masque I use religiously that I must blog about; but for today lets talk Moroccan Oil and the STEAL I found for you. 

If you’re looking for a product to condition tresses and tame frizz, get to know Moroccan Oil Treatment. It’s the perfect hair multi-tasker and it has become a staple in my hair product arsenal. If there’s one thing that I do every day, it’s applying Moroccan Oil. It makes my hair feel softer and it smooths everything out making styling much, much easier. It also makes my hair SHINE! 

To use Moroccan Oil, you apply a small amount to damp hair then style hair as usual. The key here is to not be heavy handed because just a little Moroccan Oil goes a very long way. Seriously, a really long way… I’ve been using this since mid-September and I still have 3/4 of a bottle worth of product by using a nickel size dollop at a time on my thick, course hair.

What makes Moroccan Oil a multi-tasking product is that in addition to adding instant shine and taming frizz, the product also conditions and protects hair against heat. In fact, one of Moroccan Oil’s suggested uses is to apply the product before coloring (and not rinsing hair) and then mixing product into the color mixture. This is said to help the hair shaft absorb the color or bleacher easier, enhance shine, elasticity and depth of color. I haven’t tried that yet but with the results I’m seeing so far, it's a must try.

Of course I love the shine and smoothness but my absolutely favorite thing about Moroccan Oil is how it makes my hair smell. It has a musky scent that is just like my ideal men’s cologne, it’s not overly masculine, has a touch of sweetness and does not conflict with any perfume I may wear. Blow drying and styling my hair has been a little more enjoyable lately thanks to this.

So how can I replace this fabulous find you may ask?? Well at $42.00 a pop for my dear Moroccan Oil I thought I need to find a replacement. I ran across One'n Only Argan Oil Treatment, while walking down the aisles of my local Sally's Beauty Supply. 

It too controls the fizzes is rich in essential fatty acids, Omega 6 and Vitamin E, which valued for its ability to regenerate and nourish dry and damaged hair. You can use this too before coloring, perming, relaxing or just to nourish chemical free hair! It's so nourishing, I even use a bit on my cuticles LOL. 

One 'n Only Argan Oil is a non-greasy, alcohol-free formula that is instantly absorbed into the hair, creating brilliant shine without leaving an oily residue.  Smoothes cuticle for the silky, conditioned and healthy looking hair.  It evens says on the bottle to compare to Moroccan Oil and at $8.00 a bottle why not give it a try! Oh and by the way it smells just as yummy!

I honestly love both of them they are absolutely great!!!! You cannot go wrong with either one.
