Argan oil hair mask: benefits and how to use it for beautiful hair

For centuries, argan oil has been the beauty secret of women in the Maghreb. Extracted from the nuts of the argan tree, it is packed with essential nutrients to nourish, protect and repair the hair.

Let's discover the benefits of argan oil, how to add it to your hair routine and the best ways to use it for shiny, soft and resilient hair.

Why use argan oil on your hair?

Argan oil is a natural elixir that combines nourishment, protection and repair.

  • Deeply hydrates: its richness in essential fatty acids (omega-6 and omega-9) strengthens the hair's lipid barrier.
  • Repairs and strengthens: ideal for damaged, coloured or brittle hair, it restores the hair fibre.
  • Adds shine and softness: it smooths the hair cuticle for radiant hair.
  • Protects against external aggressors: antioxidant thanks to vitamin E, it protects against pollution, sun and heat from styling tools.
  • Soothes the scalp: its anti-inflammatory properties help calm irritation and itching.

Maree Haircare has combined argan oil with the exceptional virtues of immortelle in its multi-purpose infused hair oil, to nourish, protect and, with a massage, help stimulate the scalp.

How to use argan oil on your hair

Argan oil is multi-purpose and can be added to your hair routine in different ways.

1. As an oil treatment before shampooing

Ideal for dry, damaged hair

  • Apply a few drops of argan oil to your lengths and ends.

  • Massage gently to spread the treatment evenly.

  • Leave on for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

  • Rinse with a gentle shampoo to remove excess oil.

Result: deeply nourished, supple and repaired hair. For maximum effect, choose Maree's multi-purpose infused hair oil, where argan oil is enriched with immortelle: used with a massage, it helps stimulate microcirculation and supports growth.

2. As a leave-in treatment to protect and tame

Perfect for curly or frizz-prone hair

  • Put a small drop of oil in your palms.

  • Rub lightly, then apply to your ends and lengths, on damp or dry hair.

  • Don't overload to avoid a greasy effect.

Result: softer, shinier hair protected from external aggressors. With Maree's multi-purpose infused hair oil, as well as the benefits of argan, immortelle brings powerful antioxidant action that protects the hair fibre from oxidative stress.

3. As a styling serum for instant shine

Ideal for all hair textures

  • Apply 1 to 2 drops of argan oil after styling.

  • Focus on the ends to help prevent split ends.

Result: an ultra-glossy finish and a silky feel.

4. As a scalp massage to support growth

Ideal for dry or itchy scalps

  • Apply a few drops to your scalp.

  • Massage gently in circular motions to stimulate blood circulation.

  • Leave on for 20 to 30 minutes before washing your hair.

Result: a soothed, stimulated scalp that supports growth. Maree's multi-purpose infused hair oil optimises this treatment thanks to the properties of immortelle, known for energising the scalp and strengthening the hair fibre.

Argan oil suits all hair types, but its benefits vary according to your needs:

1. A homemade hair mask with honey and an egg yolk.
