4 Best Natural Hair Oils:
Hair goes through a lot: heat treatments, chemicals, coloring, and environmental stressors can cause unsightly damage. If you want soft, shiny, voluminous hair, nothing works better than all natural oils derived from plant-based sources.
Shampoo and conditioner products, especially the cheap ones can strip your hair of nutrients, and lead to problems like breakage, and split ends. The following oils can help restore your hair to a place of health, vitality, and beauty:
Coconut Oil: Coconut oil is filled with protein, fatty acids, and vitamins, making it a nutrient rich soup for your hair. At room temperature, this oil 
is solid, which makes it easy to take along with you when traveling. It can be found in shampoos, conditioners, and lotions that you can rub directly into your hair. It should help make hair stronger, shinier, and thicker while making it smell great too.
Argan Oil: A rich source of vitamin E and essential fatty acids, argan oil works as a highly effective moisturizer. When used in its natural state, argan oil has a satisfyingly warm, nutty scent that goes well in DIY hair recipes.
Aloe Vera: This oil is found in a thick formula that remedies many skin problems. However, it can effectively be used on the scalp to get rid of dandruff and eczema. These conditions can leave your scalp feeling dry and itchy, resulting in unsightly skin flakes throughout your locks.
Castor Oil: The best type of this oil to use is Jamaican black castor oil. It is best known for its hair growth abilities. It is also a very thick oil that is used to effectively seal in moisture for thicker, coarser hair types.
