What is the Best Brand of Argan Oil?
The Best Brand of Argan Oil We've said it before, and we will say it again. All brands of Argan Oil are not created equal. It's sad, but true. What is the best brand of argan oil? There are three things to look for as you decide on which brand of Argan Oil to spend your money on. First, it needs to be authentic. If it's not real Argan Oil, it's not worth buying.

How to Use Argan Oil
Back to the basics! In case you missed it on other parts of our site, here are a few tips on how to use argan oil. (Of course, we always recommend handpressed oil, as there is no comparison in quality from machine pressed oil.) Here's how to get started with your new bottle of 100% Pure Argan Oil. Hair Run a very small amount through your hair after washing and then style as usual. (Just a drop! If you use too much, your hair will look greasy.
