a professional hair and scalp repair oil developed with botanical ingredients and real-use testing
|
During summer, our hair is constantly exposed to sun, salt and wind, which leads to dehydration, loss of shine and increased fragility. Over time, split ends, dullness and excessive tangling appear, while the hair starts to look tired, weak and lacking elasticity.
To address this damage, I created natural hair oils based on carefully selected botanical ingredients, designed to deliver deep nourishment, hydration and repair without weighing the hair down. These formulations support the natural regeneration of the hair fibre, enhance shine and help restore softness and vitality.
Their texture is rich yet balanced, absorbs well and leaves no heavy or greasy residue, making them suitable for regular use on both the lengths and the scalp.
Before starting any intensive treatment, it is recommended to trim the ends, removing split tips and allowing the product to work more effectively. Healthy hair responds better to care and retains the benefits for longer.
preparation before formulation
Before you begin, make sure you have all the necessary equipment, including a digital scale, glass beakers, pipettes, a mini whisk, a spatula and a clean bottle for the final product.
Then:
• Sterilise all tools, containers and utensils.
• Clean your working surface thoroughly.
• Use a digital scale for accurate measurements.
• Prepare a dark glass bottle and a label with the production date.
Skipping these steps significantly increases the risk of product contamination and spoilage.
preparation method
After weighing all ingredients:
1. Combine them in a clean container and mix until fully homogeneous.
2. Transfer the blend into a sterilised spray bottle, preferably dark glass.
3. Label with the preparation date.
4. Allow the product to stabilise for approximately 48 hours.
why this formula works
The formulation is based on a balanced combination of plant oils, vitamins and active ingredients that work synergistically rather than independently. The core of the formula relies on argan oil and camellia oil, two nutrient-rich oils high in essential fatty acids that strengthen the hair structure, restore natural shine and improve elasticity without creating heaviness. Thanks to its lightweight texture, camellia oil absorbs quickly and helps maintain balance even in hair prone to oiliness.
Horse chestnut oil is included to support microcirculation in the scalp, improving oxygen supply to the follicles and contributing to overall root health. Combined with abyssinian oil and meadowfoam seed oil, which provide smoothing, conditioning and moisture-retaining properties, the blend gains a silky texture, reduced frizz and improved manageability, even in coloured or damaged hair.
Vitamins E and F act as key protective elements within the formula. Vitamin E functions as a powerful antioxidant, shielding the hair from environmental stressors while supporting the repair of damaged ends. Vitamin F, rich in essential fatty acids, reinforces the scalp’s natural barrier, reduces dryness and improves resistance to heat and styling stress.
The essential oils are not added solely for fragrance but form an active part of the formulation. Rosemary essential oil stimulates the scalp, enhances microcirculation and helps regulate oil production, while sweet orange essential oil provides antioxidant protection, boosts shine and adds a natural freshness that completes the formula harmoniously.
Together, these ingredients create a complete hair treatment oil that works beyond surface-level conditioning, supporting hair structure at depth, strengthening scalp function and gradually restoring hair quality from root to tip.
adapting the formula to your hair type
This oil can be customised according to individual hair needs.
For oily or fine hair, lighter and fast-absorbing oils are recommended. For dry, dehydrated or highly damaged hair, richer and more nourishing oils are more suitable.
This approach ensures balanced nourishment without excessive heaviness or greasiness.
action on scalp and hair length
The oil is applied both to the scalp and along the entire length of the hair. By deeply conditioning the scalp, where active follicles are located, it supports natural renewal and improves the quality of new hair growth. Within a few days, hair becomes noticeably smoother, softer and more silky, with reduced frizz.
application method
Shake well before each use.
Spray a sufficient amount from roots to ends, ensuring even coverage of the scalp. Massage gently with your fingertips.
Ideally, leave the oil on overnight and wash your hair the next morning. You may also apply a small amount to the ends after washing as a leave-in treatment.
If overnight application is not preferred, apply in the same way and leave for at least 4 hours before washing. For oily hair, use a smaller amount on the roots.
proper washing after treatment
To effectively remove the oil:
Apply shampoo directly to dry hair and massage gently to absorb excess oil.
Rinse thoroughly with water, then proceed with your regular wash.
This method cleanses the hair efficiently without stripping away moisture.
