Marula Treatment Oil (Dry & Damaged Hair)

Africa Organics Marula Treatment Oil (Dry & Damaged Hair)

You can use this oil in two ways – massage it through your hair and then wash it off or use a few drops on the tips of your fingers to control flyaway hair. Either way, it’s nature’s answer to synthetic silicones.

Hair Care actives

We dont use silicones or quaterniums. We’ve replaced them with purely natural ingredients.
We shifted focus away from instant feel and decided to challenge the norm of stripping the hair and then replacing the natural oils with synthetics. We’ve used mild foaming agents that don’t strip and plant oils
to complement the natural oils on the hair. The instant feel isn’t the same as conventional products but over time your hair is healthier.

Marula oil is well known as an excellent tissue oil, but it also helps to reduce dryness and breakages in hair. It is sustainably wild-harvested from the fruit of the marula tree and is really high in antioxidants.

When transitioning from a commercial shampoo into completely natural products like Africa Organics, it’s normal to experience what we call a detox period. 

When you introduce a completely 100% natural product to cleanse and hydrate, these toxins are expelled for good. It can take time to transition, sometimes even up to 2 months. From there, your hair and scalp will find a new balance that results in healthier, stronger hair.

Symptoms of a Detox?
When you wash your hair, your scalp is trained to produce and release necessary oils based on your washing frequency. If this frequency is regular your scalp learns that it only has a very small window in which to release those oils, which means that your hair will get oily quickly. Your scalp is trying to get ahead of you with its action plan of releasing the oils.

A scalp detox is usually centred around an overproduction of oils. During the first week or two of switching to organic shampoos, your hair tends to become either too dry or too greasy, with no middle ground. This is due to several ingredients used in regular shampoos that unfortunately block these oils from surfacing to the root of your hair. When switching to natural products these ingredients are eliminated, allowing for your natural oils to come through.

How Long Does It Take?
Just like our bodies, everyone adjusts differently to a cleanse. Some will not have this “transition” period at all, and others may need a couple of weeks, maybe longer. Your scalp will be the judge of that. One thing is for sure, though; flushing out trapped toxins is the first step towards healthier, more resilient hair.
