How our new hair oil can boost any haircare routine

It’s no secret healthy, luscious hair benefits from more than just a quality shampoo and conditioner to ensure it stays looking its best – but knowing which other products to incorporate into your routine can feel daunting.

However, there’s a new Nexxus product that can truly improve any haircare routine: it’s able to make a significant difference in the overall health and appearance of your strands, and is suitable for any and all hair types. Enter: Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil.

This nourishing elixir combines a unique blend of ingredients designed to revive, repair and nourish hair. Here, we’ve explained the benefits, the science and – arguably most importantly – how to make the most of it in order to achieve your best hair yet, plus the styles that it’s best for creating.

The science

Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil’s formula is infused with our best-in-class dual rose complex which includes rose of Jericho oil and damascus rose oil, which work simultaneously to help repair hair. As with all Nexxus styling products, it offers thermal protection up to 450 degrees, plus it features our exclusive StyleProtect technology which encapsulates every strand, shielding your style from daily aggressors for healthy-looking hair. And if that wasn’t enough, it also has a 72-hour humidity shield, 48-hour frizz control and comes complete with a subtle floral fragrance, thanks to the rose of jericho oil.

The benefits

Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil is intensely nourishing – but it’s also been created to be lightweight, which means you can reap the rewards of it without worrying it’ll weigh your hair down. It coaxes dry, tired strands back to life and is suitable to use on both dry and damp hair. It can also be reapplied as and when you feel like your hair needs it most.

How to use Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil

Pre- and post-shower

The most common way to use hair oil is to apply it post shower onto the mid-lengths and ends to help boost shine, seal in moisture and to give dull, dry strands a new lease of life. However, hair oiling is also a great pre-wash overnight treatment to deeply nourish neglected hair. Simply saturate your stands in oil, pop a silk bonnet on and let the oil work its magic while you snooze. Or, if you don’t have that much time, let it sit for 30 minutes before washing it out instead.

To style hair

This might sound counterintuitive to use oil to style your hair, but because Repair & Nourish Ultra Lightweight Hair Oil is so lightweight, you can actually use it as a styling product. If you find you want more shine on your slicked back bun, for example, pump some oil into your hair and smooth it over the style to give it a super shiny finish. It’s also a great one for helping to achieve glass hair, too – pair it with our Epic Shine Anti-Humidity Spray for ultra reflective, see-them-from-space strands.

To revive second day hair

Another one of our favorite ways to use this oil is to revive second day hair. After brushing through locks and using dry shampoo, apply oil to the mid-lengths and ends to add hydration back in for a true freshly-washed look.
