Rich, nourishing, and 100% natural, they restore strength, shine, and vitality to all hair types.

Discover how to easily integrate them into your hair care routine… and some simple homemade recipes to make at home !

✨ Why use oils for hair?
Vegetable oils are much more than simple treatments: they are true natural elixirs, free of chemicals, offering multiple benefits:

Nourish dry and damaged hair

Repair split ends

Stimulate growth and strengthen roots

Provide shine, softness, and suppleness

Protect against external aggressions (sun, wind, pollution)

🌸 Which oil for which hair type?
At Trésors du Souk, we select pure, artisanal oils from traditional know-how. Here's how to choose well according to your need:

Dry and damaged hair
Argan oil (from Morocco): ultra nourishing, it repairs and adds shine.

Avocado oil: perfect for brittle ends and lifeless hair.

Dull or tired hair
Nigella oil (Habba Sawda): strengthens roots and prevents hair loss.

Olive oil: softens and naturally strengthens the hair fiber.

Kinky or curly hair
Castor oil (or carapate): promotes growth and adds volume.

Coconut oil: hydrates and defines curls.

Oily hair
Jojoba oil: naturally regulates sebum without greasing.

Nigella oil: purifying, ideal for soothing irritated scalps.

🧴 How to apply hair oils?
As an oil bath (1 to 2 times per week)

Apply the oil (or your blend) on dry or slightly damp hair.

Gently massage the scalp and lengths.

Leave on for 30 minutes to overnight.

Rinse with a mild shampoo.

As a daily treatment (no rinse)
Apply 2 to 3 drops of oil on the ends after styling to tame frizz and add shine.

As a stimulating massage
With castor or nigella oil: gently massage the scalp to activate microcirculation and boost growth.
