WORTH THE HYPE: Moroccan Oil Hair Treatment


hair treatment for dry hair intense hydration and soothing


Last year I reviewed Macadamia Healing Treatment Spray (you can read my review here) and for a long time that was my go to hair oil. But then for Christmas my dad's girlfriend gave me some Moroccan Oil and my hair was never the same again.I still love using Macadamia Treatment Spray but it just doesn't transform my hair like Moroccan Oil does.

I apply Moroccan Oil very sparingly, a little goes a very long way. This small 25ml bottle doesn't have a pump so it is really easy to pour out too much product (which is very annoying) but it isn't impossible to get a little bit out at a time. I have the original formula (they also have a formula for fine hair which is lighter) and the oil is quite thick but I haven't found that it weighs my hair down at all. I apply this through the ends of my hair as well as the midlength and it is the best leave-in product that I have ever had the pleasure of using.

I've tried countless leave in conditioners, Macadamia's Leave in Cream and Macadamia's Healing Treatment Spray but none of them have left my hair feeling and looking so soft, shiny and thoroughly healthy. I find that the effects last between washes even if I don't use it every time and that my hair has developed split ends far more slowly. I think this is an absolute must have for anyone who mistreats their hair. If you love using heat on your hair then give it something back and pamper it back to health! It's also fantastic if you feel like your hair is dull or lackluster as when I follow up my usual shampoo and conditioner with this I feel as though I've just stepped out of the hairdresser, I'm all shine baby!

Something that might hold you back from ever trying this product is the price. Yes, it is steep. However, the 25ml bottle (available here for £12.85*) is an incredibly convenient way to try Moroccan Oil without investing £30.45 on a 100ml bottle (available from FeelUnique). I, personally, couldn't recommend this highly enough as it is hands down the best hair treatment that I have ever tried - nothing else has been as good as this. My 25ml is lasting me incredibly well,  I've used about a third of it over the last two months using is every other day. There is no doubt that this is a luxury product but the £30.45 that I will be paying for my fullsize bottle will most likely last me into next year. 

If you want shiny hair, hair that's less frizzy with healthier ends then this is a product you should try. I know it's expensive but it's an investment in your appearance and for me this has paid off big time. Tiana, if you're reading- thank you for this hair oil! The price would have put me off  too but I now know, and have to stress to you, that it is worth it, oh so worth it. 



Do you use a hair oil? Have you tried Moroccan Oil before?

  1. I have been wanting to try this product for so long now, but I can't quite justify spending all that money. At the minute I use Tresemee Liquid gold infused with Argon oil. This does the job. I even reviewed it. I may have to get the smaller bottle then that way I can see how similar the two products are. Great review!

  5. This is my HG hair product. It's totally transformed my hair from a frizzy unmanageable mess to smooth and healthly hair. I've been using this since it came out and a full size bottle lasts me around 2 years so I think it's worth every penny.

  6. Have you tried the Macadamia Healing Oil? It's a bit thicker/more nourishing than the spray :) I love Morocconoil too, but Macadamia is my favourite! x

  7. I ADORE Morrocon and Macadamia Oil. They leave my hair so shiny, and soft! My hair has grown 3 inches in the last 3 months with religious hair oil usage! xx
