The Original Moroccan Oil

Over the past couple of months, I have non stop moaned about my hair. It has been in desperate need of a cut for a while now and while it's starting to get better now, the condition before treating it with some tender loving care was dull, weak and the split ends slightly unbearable. 

I have heard so many things about this product, but always thought it was a little expensive for a hair oil. I have used hair oils in the past, but they always seemed to weigh my hair down, and I certainly didn't want to splurge £30 on something could potentially do the same.

Feel Unique very kindly offered me the chance to try a few of there products, and so I thought it was the perfect opportunity to try it and asked if I could try the small sized Original Morrocan Oil*

 I've been using this for a couple of months now and although now I absolutely love it, the first few applications were a little disappointing. In hindsight, I now realise I was either applying too much or too little and so just wasn't pleased with the effect. After trial and error, I now know that for my hair that I only need a small amount, slightly bigger than a 5p rubbed between my hands and then throughout the ends of my hair. 

I like to focus on the mid-lengths to the ends of my hair, because whilst it's in desperate need of cutting- that's where needs the most care.

I apply this to towel tried hair because with soaking wet hair, this could drop out and I want it to sit on the hair and nourish it.

Whilst blow drying, I feel as if it's a lot easier, feeling less tangled and more manageable.

After blow drying my hair is so shiny and silky smooth. Not so much so that it's squeaky and too soft which I personally don't like, but glossy and so much more manageable. By no means does this oil weigh my hair down either which is a huge bonus.

I have applied this a couple of times to dry hair, in order to control my ends and it does work well but I do prefer it using it prior to blow-drying as I feel like thats a little more intensive.

It is an extremely tiny bottle, but if you have hair similar to mine (no longer or thicker) then you really won't need to use a lot of product each time. 

The full size bottle is lovely, and as well as having more product I like that you get a pump rather than having to pour the product. I think using a pump could have potentially stopped me from having to go through trial and error process with deciding how much to use.

In terms of consistency, it's a thick oil rather than a thin watery one. I really like it as it's easy to control, but again, I would prefer it coming from a pump.

One negative with this product for me is the rich scent, I'm not super keen it and although it's barely there and I'm just being fussy, I prefer sweet smelling products. Although I don't love it, the scent isn't overwhelming in the slightest and doesn't smell on the hair, so don't let that factor put you off. 

If you feel the same way as I did, then I really recommend trying the 25ml sized product just to make sure you like it, as I'm the first to admit that £30 on a hair product that you have never tried, is pretty steep.

I'm now a huge fan of this product and when this one comes to an end, I will be repurchasing it. 

Both sizes of this are available on Feel Unique and cost £12.85 for the 25ml and £30.45 for the 100ml

Have you tried Morrocan Oil on your hair or are you tempted to try what seems to be such a popular product?
