Act + Acre Cold Processed Vitamin E Scalp Detox Oil

One of my favorite oils, this one has a nozzle tip to easily drip it directly onto my scalp before massaging. It uses basil leaf and baobab oils to help break down oils and gunk on my scalp, as well as balance my scalp microbiome. It's v lightweight too, so great for oily scalp folks.

Squigs Gooseberry Delight Hair Oil

I actually notice a significant difference between weeks when I use this amla-based oil and weeks when I don’t. My hair becomes noticeably shinier and styles so much better after each use. Amla oil (sometimes called Indian gooseberry) is a rich, moisturizing oil that is easily absorbed your skin and hair and is commonly found in Ayurvedic products.

Ceremonia Aceite de Moska Pre-Shampoo Scalp & Hair Oil

This oil has the most incredible scent, and I love using it on both my scalp and ends. It's great to load up my hair before shampooing to help reduce stripping and keep my scalp and hair moisturized af. When I pair it with the brand's gentle scalp massager and close my eyes, it almost feels like I'm getting my head massaged at the salon. FYI: This contains castor oil, which might be a lil too rich for very-fine hair types.

Fable & Mane HoliRoots Hair Growth Oil & Scalp Oil Treatment

The thing that bugs me the most about a lot of hair oils on the market is that they are often too heavy and hard to wash out. Not this one from Fable and Mane, though. It's incredibly lightweight (even for my fine hair ppl), but is still jam-packed with Ayurvedic staples like ashwagandha and dashmool to help soothe my irritated scalp.

Indē Wild Champi Hair Oil

I don’t wear my natural hair often because I’m still working through embracing my curls. But on the days I want my texture to shine, I reach for this hair oil before and after my wash. It contains 11 Ayurvedic active ingredients, including castor oil, brahmi, hibiscus, and a blend of sesame, coconut, almond, Indian argan, and vitamin E oils—all of which make my hair extremely soft and smooth, moisturizing my curls so much that they look more defined.

Maria Nila True Soft Argan Oil

This hair oil is the GOAT when it comes to adding softness back to brittle hair and reducing frizz. Plus, it smells like lilies, jasmine, and rose, so I always get compliments when I step out.
