Why I Love Moroccan Oil (and Why My Clients Do Too)
If you’ve ever asked me what products I personally use on my own hair, or what I recommend to my clients in the salon, Moroccanoil is always one of the first brands that comes to mind.
Their products are hydrating, lightweight, nourishing, and they make the hair feel beautiful without weighing it down. I consistently recommend them to clients who want soft, manageable, healthy-looking hair.
Today, I’m sharing a breakdown of my favorite Moroccanoil products and how I use them behind the chair and at home.
1. Moroccan Oil Extra Volume Shampoo & Hydrating Conditioner
My personal everyday wash duo.
This is the exact shampoo and conditioner I use on my own hair — and it’s one of the reasons my hair stays soft, shiny, and bouncy.
Why I love it:
- Gives volume and body from the roots while keeping the hair clean and fresh
- Hydrates without feeling heavy
- Leaves the hair soft and airy
- Smells completely dreamy
This duo is perfect for anyone who wants clean, weightless hair with just the right amount of moisture. If you ask me in the salon what shampoo/conditioner to try next, this pair is usually at the top of my list.
2. Moroccan Oil Treatment
My nighttime hair oil + wash-day must-have.
This is a product I will never stop using.
I apply it at night before putting on my Kitsch Satin Bonnet, and I also use it on damp hair before blow drying.
Why it’s a staple:
- Adds shine without greasiness
- Keeps the ends hydrated
- Helps smooth frizz and flyaways
- Protects the hair while styling
And one thing I love about this product is that it comes in a Light version too.
The original formula works beautifully for most hair types, but the Light version is perfect for fine, thin, or blonde hair clients who want all the same benefits without any weight. I recommend it often in the salon for those who want hydration and shine without feeling heavy.
It makes such a difference in the look and feel of your hair especially if you heat style regularly.
3. Moroccan Oil Luminous Hairspray
Soft, touchable hold that never feels crunchy.
This hairspray is a client favorite because it gives you hold without helmet hair. It keeps your style in place while still allowing movement.
Perfect for:
- Curls
- Waves
- Sleek ponytails
- Updos
- Everyday styling
4. Moroccan Oil Dry Texture Spray
The instant “lift + grip” spray.
If you’ve ever seen me create lived-in curls or effortless waves, there’s a good chance I used this. It adds texture, volume, and a pretty, undone finish without feeling sticky.
I use this behind the chair every single week.
5. Moroccan Oil Scalp Tonic
Healthy hair starts with a healthy scalp.
This tonic is soothing, refreshing, and perfect for anyone dealing with:
- Dryness
- Flakiness
- Itchiness
- Tension or irritation
It helps balance the scalp and keeps it calm — something a lot of clients don’t realize they need until they try it.
6. Moroccan Oil Gloss Mask
My “instant shine” treatment.
This mask brings dull hair back to life. Whether your hair feels dry, tired, or over-styled, it adds shine, softness, and deep hydration.
I love using it weekly, especially in winter or after a busy styling season.
Why Moroccan Oil Works for So Many Hair Types
A few reasons I recommend this brand so often:
- Their formulas are lightweight but nourishing
- They smell amazing (always a bonus!)
- The products work for fine, medium, and thick hair
- They add shine without heaviness
- They’re easy to use and beginner-friendly
- Clients see real results quickly
Whether you’re low-maintenance or love styling your hair daily, Moroccan Oil truly has something for everyone.
