Camellia Oil for Hair

Rated 4.9 out of 5
Based on 8 reviews

Camellia oil, often referred to as tea seed oil, is a lightweight, nutrient-rich botanical oil traditionally used in Japanese and Chinese beauty rituals. Brimming with oleic acid and natural antioxidants, it is prized for its ability to soften strands and enhance shine without adding heaviness. 

Perfect for leave-in treatments, scalp oils, and heat-styling products, camellia oil is a versatile ingredient that supports the look of beautiful, lustrous hair. When used on damp strands or as a finishing oil, it helps tame flyaways and restore hydration, making it especially beneficial for color-treated hair.

Ready to Use

Camellia oil is featherlight and immediately ready to smooth onto your strands. Use it as a leave-in glossing oil, or add it to your detangling routine to help tame flyaways. Its silky finish makes it a popular solo oil, but it also blends beautifully with essential oils for customized scalp massages or with conditioners for a dose of extra luxury.
