Great ingredients to look for if your hair is on the fine side are oils that nourish but don\u2019t leave a greasy residue, like Kalahari melon and Barbary Fig. Another is Chicory Oil for protection against geo aggressors like pollution.<\/p>\n<h2>Use strategic application<\/h2>\n<p>The goal is to use the right amount of oil for your hair so that it falls right into the cuticle and leaves hair glossy without looking greasy. For fine hair, start by rubbing a pea-size amount between palms until hands have a shiny feel to them. Apply oil starting at ends\u2014cheekbones down, never the root\u2014and work your way upwards. Damp or dry hair is best, never wet. It\u2019s easy to over-apply on wet hair as it\u2019s not always clear when enough is enough.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffa380;\"><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong><\/span> If you over-apply, don\u2019t worry. Dry shampoo works really well to tone down the oil, as do blotting sheets that you might use on your face. You can even try spritzing on a texturizing spray to absorb the excess oil and then blowdry to balance it out.<\/p>\n<h2>Perfect your hairstyles<\/h2>\n<p>Using hair oil before you style can actually help improve the finished look. Why? The same reason a stylist might ask you to come with day-old hair. Hair oil mimics your natural oil (in a good way) and so they are great for collapsing fine hair and making it easier to work with when doing up-styles or braided looks. Oils give shine and control so hair\u2019s not too fluffy, bouncy or open.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffa380;\"><strong>Pro Tip:<\/strong><\/span> Use oils to sleek back your pony instead of hairspray, which will eventually dry and leave strands looking parched.<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>You don\u2019t have to avoid using hair oils, just be careful about the ones you\u2019re using and how you use them. Look for lightweight oils that protect without weighing down and when applying, always start small at the ends and work your way up.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<article>\n<div class=\"container\">\n<div class=\"small-container blog-content\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><em>Your custom hair oil will be the perfect blend of the just-right oils for your hair type, needs and goals.
