How To Use Argan Oil For Your Haircare And Skincare

For most people, their hair defines them, and many try to provide the best care possible for their hair. However, with our busy lifestyles, not everyone has the time or the patience to visit salons and afford expensive hair care routines. It doesn't matter; you can still take excellent care of your hair right out of the comfort of your home. One of the best remedies to take care of your hair is cold-pressed argan oil.

Argan oil is not something new... Even if you are a novice to the haircare industry, you might have heard about Argan Oil. Named after the Argan trees in Morocco, argan oil first originated in Africa. Besides being used as a hair and skin oil, many people use argan oil as cooking oil.

Fondly referred to as "liquid gold", the entire world has been noticing the benefits of argan oil. Here we will discuss the benefits of cold-pressed argan oil while also suggesting some hair care methods to benefit from argan oil.

Benefits of Using Argan Oil

  • Argan oil is a very versatile product. With a very unique nutty flavor, many African countries use this oil for culinary purposes.
  • Furthermore, argan oil is rich in antioxidants and has anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Enriched with Vitamin E, fatty acids, and other phenolic compounds, argan oil is widely used in the cosmetic industry.
  • Argan oil helps moisturize your hair and skin.
  • It even reduces skin aging.
  • While hydrating and softening your hair, argan oil also helps your hair retain its shine and glow.
  • It can withstand very high temperatures, making it an ideal styling product!

Let's discuss some of the hair care routines using cold-pressed argan oil.

How to Use Argan Oil for your Haircare?

 

1.     As a Hair Mask

Argan oil is the perfect hair oil because of its antioxidant properties. You can make your very own hair mask using argan oil. Take a few drops of 100% argan oil and apply them to your hair. You can use Wishcare's Cold-Pressed Moroccan Argan Oil 100% pure with no additives or preservatives. You can also mix argan oil with coconut oil to bring a natural shine to your hair.

Once you finish applying the hair mask, wrap your head in a small towel. If you don't have a small towel, even a shower cap can be a wonderful substitute. Wrapping your hair helps the oil penetrate every hair follicle while also not ruining your clothes!

Now, let the hair mask do its magic for around half an hour. You can also leave the hair mask for a whole night if you apply the oil before sleeping. After waiting patiently, rinse your hair with shampoo and conditioner. You will notice an immediate softness in your hair. Moreover, your hair will feel much more luxurious and silkier. Apply this hair mask weekly to nourish and improve your hair.

2.     For scalp treatment

Taking good care of your scalp prevents the build-up of dandruff. Besides helping you relax, a massage also ensures healthy blood circulation to all your hair follicles, which can reduce hair fall!

Take a few drops of cold-pressed argan oil in your hand. Start massaging your scalp from the nape of your neck. Slowly, move towards your ears and then to the top of your head. Make sure that you massage your scalp slowly and softly. Continue the massage for 10 to 15 minutes.

Once you finish with the massage, finish the treatment by giving your hair a good rinse. The shampoo helps remove the oil while also removing any dirt that might have been present in your hair. Repeating the scalp treatment twice a week helps you achieve the best results for your hair.

3.     As a pre-shampoo treatment

Many of you might not have the time to massage your hair weekly. In that case, using the argan oil as a pre-shampoo treatment is perfect for you! Argan oil protects your hair from the harmful chemicals in shampoos while also giving your hair a richer feel.

Take a few drops of the cold-pressed argan oil and apply them to your hair. In addition, massage your scalp to ensure that every hair strand gets a bit of oil. Alternatively, you can even comb your hair to make sure that the oil is evenly distributed. Jump into the shower after 10 to 15 minutes.

Shampooing your hair helps get rid of the argan oil. You can also condition your hair to help lock in the moisture. You can use Wishcare's Argan Biotin Shampoo, and Argan Vanilla Conditioner are great products for these purposes. Even repeating this process once every week can help bring wonderful improvements to your hair.

4.     As a leave-in conditioner

Nobody likes dry hair. Dry hair can easily break, causing your hair to look unhealthy and dull. One of the many benefits of argan oil is that it can be used as a conditioner and prevent your hair from looking dreadful.

Once you finish showering, use a towel to absorb the water on your hair. After this, take a few drops of argan oil and apply them to your hair. You can even mix the cold-pressed argan oil with your cream-based conditioners for better results. Let your hair absorb the argan oil for a few minutes. Finally, the last step involves blow-drying your hair. Argan oil has heat-resistant properties which protect your hair from heat.

5.     As a hair styler

Many might not know this, but you can also use your argan oil as a hair styler. Coupled with other hair serums and creams, you can use argan oil to give yourself a snazzy hairdo! You can find many professional websites that focus on the subject of hairstyling.

However, only 100% pure argan oil can double to work as a hair styler. Wishcare's Cold-Pressed Moroccan Argan Oil is 100% pure and is perfect for this job! If you have thin hair, make sure that you use few drops of argan oil. Applying lots of oil to thin hair can cause it to become heavy, which might put extra pressure on the scalp.

How to Use Argan Oil for your Skincare?

 

1.     As a Moisturizer

Argan oil has abundant antioxidants and is also rich in Vitamin E. Not only does it help your skin improve water retention, but your skin also becomes very soft and supple. No wonder it is a popular ingredient in many lotions and soaps. 

Apply a few drops of Argan oil on your skin after you take a shower. Many companies also offer Argan oil supplements which you can gobble every now and then.

2.     As a sunscreen

For generations, people have used argan oil to shield their skin from the harmful effects of the sun. It can prevent burns from the UV rays while also preventing skin conditions like hyperpigmentation.

Just like the moisturizer, you can apply cold-pressed Argan oil on your skin and face before venturing out in the sun. An alternate method is to consume Argan oil supplements orally.

3.     As a treatment for acne and other skin infections

Argan oil has many antibacterial and antiseptic properties. Moreover, it also possesses anti-sebum properties, which negate the growth of pimples.

If you suffer from acne, apply a few drops of Argan oil to the affected area. Make sure to do this twice a day. Within a few weeks, not only will the acne have disappeared, but your face will also develop a smooth and soft skin tone.

Argan oil can also treat skin infections and help heal wounds. You can rub a few drops of the oil on the infected/ wounded area. Do this twice a day to achieve the best results.

 

Final thoughts

Argan oil is a very versatile product and works exceptionally well on your hair and skin. However, you get the best results only when you use the best products. That is why we recommend the Cold-Pressed Moroccan Argan Oil from Wishcare. Not only does it give you a luxurious and invigorating experience, but it is also 100% pure. Moreover, there are no added preservatives or additives. It is also fragrance free and does not contain any toxins.
