When you combine ingredients like argan oil and egg, you’ll create an ultra-nourishing hair mask that’s perfect for all hair types. What makes argan oil and egg so special for hair? Read on below:
Benefits of Argan Oil for Hair
Argan oil is an oil extracted from argan nuts of the Argan tree, only found in Morocco. This oil is precious because it has a comedogenic (pore clogging) rating of zero so it is good for using on hair without clogging up the hair follicles and causing dandruff, itchy scalp and other problems. Argan oil is also rich in nutrients that feed the hair follicles and keep them healthy and functioning well. This nutrient-rich oil is also popularly known to make hair strands silky, soft and shiny!
Benefits of Egg for Hair
Egg is rich in protein, sulfur and fatty acids that strengthen the hair follicles and strands. It is also a natural emulsifier which means it helps bind oils and water together, which cleanses the scalp and hair of excess oils and stale sebum. Egg is also a natural hair conditioner and promotes silky soft and tangle-free hair.
