Marula Oil for Hair

Marula Oil for Hair

Rated 4.8 out of 5
Based on 8 reviews

Cold-pressed from the seeds of the marula fruit, marula mil is a luxurious, lightweight oil packed with oleic acid and essential nutrients that support beautifully moisturized-feeling hair. Loved for its smooth glide and fast-absorbing nature, marula oil helps reduce the appearance of flyaways while imparting a radiant shine. 

It’s an excellent addition to leave-in conditioners, curl creams, and other blends, as it nourishes without weight. Ideal for boosting softness and manageability, marula oil is particularly suited for hair types that benefit from a touch of everyday elegance.

Ready to Use

Marula oil can be used on its own as a finishing oil, scalp refresher, or nourishing pre-shampoo step. You don’t need to dilute it—it’s already gentle and lightweight enough for daily use. Blend it with your favorite styling cream for added shine, or massage a few drops through the ends of your hair to smooth and protect without any greasy feel.
