Natural hair oils: how to use them correctly?

Natural oils are a simple and versatile way to give your hair and scalp extra care. They can help make hair softer, more supple, and shinier, and are especially beneficial when hair feels dry or dull. But how do you actually use hair oil correctly?

Why use natural oils for your hair?

Plant-based oils naturally contain various fatty acids and other components that are beneficial for hair and scalp care. Depending on the oil and formula chosen, they can help nourish hair, reduce moisture loss, and make dry ends feel smoother.

The most important thing is to choose the oil according to your hair's needs and to use it correctly.

1. As intensive pre-wash treatment

An oil or oil serum can be applied before washing as a conditioning hair mask.

Apply a small amount to dry hair and/or scalp, depending on the product. Gently massage in and leave the treatment on for approximately 30 to 60 minutes. Afterwards, wash your hair thoroughly with shampoo.

This is, for example, how you can use MaFleur Strength Hair & Scalp Serum and MaFleur Hair Stimulant Growth.

🌿 Tip: more product doesn't automatically mean better results. Start with a small amount and distribute it evenly.

2. Oil for dry hair ends

Are your lengths and ends particularly dry? Then a light natural oil can be a great addition to your daily hair care routine.

Distribute one or a few drops between your palms and gently apply them to the lengths and ends. Avoid too much oil, especially on fine hair.

Argan oil is particularly popular for this: it helps keep hair supple and gives a beautiful, natural shine without needing a large amount.

3. Don't forget the scalp

Healthy-looking hair starts with a well-cared-for scalp. A specially formulated oil serum can be gently massaged in during application.

A short massage also helps to distribute the product evenly over the scalp. Use your fingertips for this and massage gently, without rubbing hard.

How often should you use hair oil?

That depends on your hair type and the product chosen. Dry and thick hair often needs a different care routine than fine hair that gets greasy faster.

For example, start with one treatment per week and see how your hair reacts. Then adjust the amount and frequency to what your hair needs.

Which oil is right for your hair?

There is no one-size-fits-all oil. Therefore, don't just look at trends, but especially at your hair type, your scalp, and the goal of your care.
