Moroccanoil Shampoo, Conditioner, and Oil Treatment
Using:
Years ago Sally Saito, my hair stylist at Umberto’s, sold me a bottle of Moroccanoil oil treatment: it’d last over a year since just a drop would make my burgundy, bed-head bob silky. She was right. But when I — finally — recently ran out, I tried pure argan oil instead. The result? It looked like I’d dumped pure argan oil in my hair. Then I, on a whim, I picked up a Brazilian hair oil at Whole Foods. A half-dollar-size drop wouldn’t work, so I used a quarter of the bottle in my hair. The result? It looked like I’d dumped a quarter of a bottle of Brazilian hair oil from Whole Foods in my hair.
Thankfully, Moroccanoil’s PR mailed me a care package of Moroccanoil shampoo, conditioner, and classic oil treatment. As much as I loved the hair-relaxing results of my Keratin treatment for our honeymoon month, its price of $400 plus 48 hours of wearing my hair flat-ironed straight is a touch much, even for me.
My vanity is only matched by my laziness, after all.
And my intelligence: my guess is that a full Moroccanoil hair regimen gives hair almost as good as a Keratin treatment…

I just started using the oil recently and I think it works better for blowouts than the LIving Proof cream that was previously my choice. (My hair is like Felicity or Bernadette Peters curly). I’m surprised by just how much of the stuff I can put in my hair though. I could go through this little bottle in a couple months. Love the smell. Scents make or break hair products for me. I believe there are excellent conditioners, etc. ate drugstore prices but I loathe the two scents that dominate every drugstore hair line: cloyingly sweet “apple”, or cheap Pantene perfume.
It amazes me that lines like Herbal Essences name their products after every fruit, flower and herb on the planet but I sniff-test every bottle of lily, papaya, lavender what-have-you and it’s all fake apple to me.
