Scented hair oil

16 replies

Can anyone recommend a scented hair oil?

I have dry, coarse hair and oil my hair twice a day - which ‘drinks’ it up and takes it somewhat.

I bought some jasmine hair oil (Vatika??) - but the jasmine scent wore off very quickly and my hair reeked of a petroleum smell 🤦‍♀️.

I tried adding drops of essential oil but that didn’t work out too great.

so wondering if there are any specialist nicely scented hair oils? (Oils, rather than serums or other hair products )

I'd speak to a hairdresser about whether a leave in treatment might help? Is your diet ok and you aren't anaemic? Has your hair always been like that? I cant believe you can put oil on your hair, twice a day, and its not greasy and dripping off! I realise this doesn't help with a scented oil, but I'd worry something else is going on- esp if this is a new problem.

Jasmine scented, and a little goes a long way.

My hair is very porous and so drinks in products.

I have had some ill health which, couple with bleach and sun damage, accounts for my hair condition (plus the hair type I have). Hairdresser pleased with the hair regime I’m on - Olaplex, deep conditioning (including protein packs) and hair oil

The Body Shop Polynesian Monoi Radiance Oil. It's a multipurpose body oil but can be used for hair. Smells gorgeous.

Charlotte Mensah Manketti Hair Oil Smells amazing and quite a few posters recommend it on the ‘Liberty Beauty Drop’ thread.

I use La Eva Jasmine Oil in my hair and on my skin and coconut oil immediately after washing it (not particularly scented) but the Jasmine Oil is and a little goes a long way as far as scent goes!

Ouai hair oil. They also have a rose scented version and you can use it on your body too.
