This hair oil is something I’ve been working on for almost 3 years now. However, three years ago when I began oiling my hair, I had absolutely no intention of selling it. I am so glad that I have decided to release this in a proper way because I truly believe it can help transform so many people’s hair and take it to the next level.
I have been obsessed with my hair for as long as I can remember. When I was very little I wouldn’t let anyone touch my hair at all, no one could style or brush it or touch it. I was very particular with how I wanted my hair to look all the time, and I was the only one allowed to ever mess with it; this was back when I was in first and second grade.
I started styling my hair with heat when I was 11 years old which is extremely young. I was never a fan of how my natural hair looked with the humid environment I grew up in, so I would straighten my hair every single day with the heat on the highest setting. I remember watching smoke come off my hair every day because I was straightening it so intensely and unfortunately this led to an extreme amount of heat damage as I continued this for years. I had been using heat on my hair almost every single day for eight years.
Once I noticed how damaged and broken my hair was I became obsessed with DIY hair masks to try and fix it. Any DIY hair mask that you could possibly find on the internet I promise I have tried it. I was trying egg yolk with avocado and Mayo, turmeric with green tea, ACV rinses, anything I could find. Believe it or not these masks actually did quite a bit for my hair; they increased its rate of growth & brought it back to a pretty decent state of health after using them consistently for about a year and a half.
However around this time that my hair improved, I moved from my humid childhood environment to a very dry desert environment. This drastic change really took a toll on my hair by making it very dry and brittle and it began breaking off very easily.
The lack of moisture in the air was a big change for my skin as well, it also became very dry, but luckily skin is much more adaptive than hair & eventually it became accustomed to the new environment. My hair took much longer to adjust, I could see that the moisture was being drawn out of it constantly, which made it very easy for it to break off.
I started looking into the known methods ancient women supposedly used to care for their hair while maintaining its length and health. The more I read about the traditional ways to maintain your hair the more I became very enchanted with the idea of oiling my hair.
The process of oiling the hair is something that has been done for thousands of years, and reading all of this led me to start experimenting with applying singular oils to the length of my hair. I started with argan oil, moved to coconut oil, then olive oil, and many others. Eventually I began mixing the oils together and almost immediately I saw a big difference in my hair health.
For the past two years or so I’ve been mixing oils to find what combinations I like best. After settling on this one after much trial and error, I began using this oil consistently, beginning about a year ago. Using this oil in my hair has really locked in moisture and protected it against the harsh elements in my environment.
Now I feel my hair has never looked better, it by all accounts radiates shiny flowing health. I have never experienced any thinning or balding of any kind but I was surprised to see baby hairs coming in after scalp oiling with it, indicative of new growth.
Over the past few months I’ve been letting friends and family try the oil to see how it works on different hair types and I have received nothing but extremely positive reviews. I’m very excited to be able to offer it to you and can’t wait to receive everyone’s feedback!
Well done. I love it when someone brings a product to market after some hard work, trial and error and research. It looks fantastic, genuinely well done.
