Unlocking the Secrets of Morroco’s Liquid Gold
Argan oil is a nourishing natural oil extracted from the nuts of the Argan tree, native to Morocco. This precious oil has been cherished for centuries, often referred to as liquid gold thanks to its many incredible benefits for both hair and skin. But you may still be wondering, what can argan oil do for hair frizz control? To answer this, let’s first break down what frizz is.
Hair becomes frizzy due to a lack of moisture and the effects of humidity. When your locks are dehydrated, the cuticles on the outer layer of each strand lift, causing them to become rough and raised. These raised cuticles allow moisture from the surrounding environment to penetrate the hair shaft, causing it to swell and expand. As a result, your hair loses its smoothness and starts to frizz. Additionally, when humidity levels are high, the excess moisture in the air is absorbed by the hair, exacerbating the frizz.
So, to combat frizz, it's crucial to maintain your hair's moisture balance and protect it from environmental factors that contribute to frizz formation – cue argan oil. The nourishing properties of this premium oil include essential fatty acids, antioxidants, vitamins and other elements that work together to help restore your hair cuticles and soothe and smooth any damage to your hair shaft. It's these incredible properties that enable argan oil to help you achieve the sleek and smooth locks you seek.
Let’s dive a little deeper into the benefits of argan oil for your tresses and how it can help you become a frizz-control master.

Adding Argan Oil to Your Hair Care Arsenal
Ready to enjoy the remarkable benefits of argan oil for your hair? Follow these simple steps to incorporate argan oil into your hair care routine for smooth, frizz-free hair that’s sure to impress.
• Step 1: Choose a Quality Argan Oil Product To get started enjoying the benefits of this natural oil, you can either use the pure oil extract or use quality hair products with argan oil, like those in the TRESemmé range, in your routine. Try swapping out your usual shampoo for TRESemmé’s Smooth and Silky Shampoo with argan oil to help you calm frizz and flyaways and effectively cleanse your hair. To amplify the frizz-fighting benefits, follow your shampoo with TRESemmé’s Smooth and Silky Conditioner. This hydrating conditioner with argan oil leaves hair 2x smoother so you can enjoy salon-smooth hair.
• Step 2: Apply Sparingly
When using pure argan oil, remember that less is more. Begin with a small amount, about a coin-sized drop for medium-length hair, and adjust as needed. Rub the oil between your palms to warm it up before applying.
• Step 3: Distribute Evenly
Gently run your fingers through your hair, focusing on the ends and mid-lengths as these areas tend to be the most prone to frizz. Avoid applying too much oil to your roots, as it can make your hair look greasy or weighed down.
• Step 4: Style as Desired
Argan oil is a great styling assistant on both damp and dry hair. If you're heat styling, make sure your hair is completely dry before using hot tools. Argan oil will protect your hair as you style and help you calm flyways to ensure a sleek and polished look.
