Jojoba oil is a stylist favourite, found in many haircare products. But why do you need it in your routine?
Extracted from the seeds of the jojoba plant, jojoba oil offers a whole host of benefits for your hair. Unlike coconut and avocado oil, jojoba oil won’t penetrate the hair – instead it helps prevent moisture loss by forming a protective film around the hair strand, locking in moisture between washes.
It’s lightweight and won’t build up in your hair like other sealants, so it’s great for all hair types, even finer or grease prone hair,
Rich in vitamin E and anti-oxidants, jojoba oil can also work wonders on your skin, maintaining hydration for a healthy glow. It also works well as scalp treatment - perfect if you suffer with dryness or flaking.
Lots of the products in our range contain jojoba oil – here are a few of our favourites.
Davines NaturalTech Well Being Conditioner
The NaturalTech Wellbeing range from Davines is perfect for all hair types and is designed to help maintain long-term hair health.
For best results, use after Davines NaturalTech Well Being Shampoo and apply a small amount to damp hair, focussing on the ends. This conditioner nourishes and hydrates the hair, whilst the jojoba oil in the formulation locks in moisture, leaving it touchably soft until your next wash.
Monpure Clarifying Scalp Scrub
We all know it’s important to exfoliate our skin, but most of us forget about our scalp. The hair health experts at Monpure have developed this Clarifying Scalp Scrub – use it weekly before shampooing to remove the build-up of dead skin cells and stimulate healthy hair growth.
The combination of jojoba oil, shea butter and argan oil work together to gently cleanse flaky skin, heal and soothe dryness, and give hair an extra nourishing boost. And as if it couldn’t get any better, the delicate rosemary and orange scent will leave your hair smelling gorgeous all day.
