Well Oiled: Introducing the best oils for your hair

Last Updated: 09/12/21

Whether your waves or curls are crying out for a hit of moisture, or are in need of some TLC, our range of {Hair Oils} are here to lend a helping hand. Ranging from nourishing argan oil to castor oil, these hair-friendly hair oils are ready to deeply nourish and impart much-needed moisture to thirsty strands – perfect for a self-care Sunday {hair care} ritual! From limp and fine, to thick and curly {afro hair}, here’s #TeamCultBeauty’s favourites…

{Bread Beauty Supply -Hair-Oil: Everyday Gloss}

Going above and beyond in its hair-caring role, BREAD BEAUTY SUPPLY’s hair-oil: everyday gloss — now available in a mini 30ml serving — is a versatile treatment that floods thirsty tresses with glossy hydration! Perfect for 3c to 4a hair, this multi-purpose, silicone-free formula is powered by super fruit extracts and impressive emollients to reveal soft, dewy curls and coils.

{Living Proof – No Frizz Vanishing Oil}

Available exclusively at Cult Beauty, Living Proof’s all-new No Frizz Vanishing Oil is a silicone-free, lightweight and fast-absorbing oil that provides frizz protection and hydration for smooth, shiny, healthy-feeling hair. It’s powered by a powerhouse combo of the brand’s patented Healthy Hair Molecule and a lightweight 5-oil blend that mimics the oils found in naturally healthy hair. Together they weightlessly block humidity and hydrate and smooth dry hair. The result? Your hair will look and feel smooth, shiny, frizz-free and more manageable without the greasy feeling you may get from other oils or hair care products that contain silicone.

{OLAPLEX – No 7 Bonding Oil}

Ultra-nourishing yet completely weightless, the innovative No. 7 Bonding Oil from {OLAPLEX} restores and renews your hair without coating it in a greasy film. Quite the contrary, expect silky smooth lengths that shine brighter than the oil itself. Formulated to rebuild the damaged disulphide bonds in your hair, the star ingredient is bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate – sounds science-y but it works to strengthen and repair damage post-colouring, bleaching or heat styling (and it even works wonders on ‘virgin’ hair!) Perfect as a conditioning treatment or a styling step (it protects against heat up to 450°!), this oh-so dreamy oil sinks into stressed-out tresses to make them instantly more manageable – smoothing frizz and taming flyaways in its wake.

{Charlotte Mensah – Manketti Hair Oil}

Harnessing the power of Manketti Nut and Ximenia oils, the Manketti Hair Oil supercharges dry and dull hair with much-needed moisture. Conditioning and gently nourishing, the formula allows your natural hair texture to take centre stage – your hair will be enhanced, not suppressed. Hair is left feeling silky and soft, with continued use working to repair hair from the root cause. Cue protection from chemical styling and environmental damage, ensuring hair is stronger and easier to manage. Weightless, long-lasting, and suitable for everyone, say hello to your new hair care staple.
