There are many hair oils in the market today. When purchasing the best oils to nourish and penetrate your hair, search for hair oils without silicones. Finding hair oils without silicones is not an easy task. In many hair oils, the first ingredient listed is silicone. Although I am not opposed to silicones in hair products, I refrain from using silicones in hair oil treatments. When applying oils to the hair, you want the oils to penetrate and nourish dry and damaged strands!
Silicones are used in hair products for many reasons. Silicones can decrease frizz, seal hair from humidity, add shine, and fill the gaps in the hair cuticle. When silicones are the main ingredients in hair oils, it keeps the nourishing oils from completely penetrating the hair. Hair oils with silicones have a place in hair routines. I apply oils with silicones to seal and protect hair from heat and smooth the cuticle to create shine. Pictured in this post are a few of the best hair oils without silicones to nourish and penetrate your hair. My favorites are the Playa Ritual Hair Oil and the Melanin Multi-Use Pure Oil Blend.
