We can't even begin to count how many times we’ve relied on a hot oil massage as a quick-fix for your hair (and mood too!) Be it for a night of sound sleep, a healthy scalp or luscious locks, it only takes a few minutes for the oil to work its magic. However, to get the most benefits of hair oil, it’s important to choose the right one that’s meant specifically for your hair type. So here’s a guide on how to choose the hair oil that’s right for you…

Curly hair

If you have lush, full curls that so many women long for, we suggest almond oil. This fairly viscous oil is filled with Vitamins A, B, E and omega-3 fatty acids. Together, they nourish the lengths of the hair, strengthen the roots and smooth frizz. They even enhance your hair’s natural curly texture. To get the best version of almond oil, opt for the Dove Elixir Hair Fall Rescue Hair Oil. In addition to almond oil, it’s enriched with rose extracts that strengthen hair from the root and prevent breakage—strong, healthy curls, here we come!

Thin hair

The trouble with oiling thin hair is that it can get greasy and fall flat. But with the right choices like rose oil and argan oil, fine hair will ask for more. Rose oil is incredibly lightweight and sits lightly on thin hair without weighing it down. It also helps to get rid of frizz and give the hair sheen. Now argan oil needs no introduction. It’s high in Vitamin E and non-greasy hence it moisturises the hair wonderfully without making it heavy.
