Hair oil can be said to be a powerful styling product, which can be divided into water-based and oil-based. Whether you want a neat slicked-back hairstyle, a Pompadour or a side-parted hairstyle, you can use hair oil to achieve a satisfactory effect.

Hair oils not only provide hair with a shiny feel, but also have varying degrees of hold. In addition, you can create different effects depending on how you use it.

For example, when you use it on wet hair, the glossiness will be stronger and the hold will be less. When you use it on dry hair, the shine will be weaker and the hold will be stronger.

Traditionally, hair oil is made from various oils, which we call oil-based hair oil. Oil-based hair oil can provide good styling power and gloss, and has good re-styling ability, allowing you to use a comb to style repeatedly throughout the day, but it cannot be completely washed off with clean water and will more or less remain on the hair.
