As seasons change, your hair’s needs and concerns change. During summer—which brings soaring temperatures, sweating, increased sun exposure and more—our strands tend to get dehydrated, brittle and frizzy. And oiling them once or twice a week may prove to be helpful. Ahead, we’ve listed our top favourite lightweight picks that will do the trick, sans the greasiness.
1. Lador Wonder Hair Oil
Packed with potent plant-based ingredients like avocado, argan and moringa seed oils, this lightweight hair oil from Lador protects and hydrates your hair. It is ideal for dry and damaged locks as it provides intense nourishment and reduces frizz, split ends and dullness. The formula doesn’t feel greasy and is a must-have for summer.
2. DROMEN & CO Organic Honey Hair Oil
This Dromen & Co hair oil is a non-sticky and lightweight formulation that improves overall scalp health by treating flaky and damaged skin. Infused with honey, kernel oil, argan oil and coconut oil, it also conditions and boosts shine.
3. KAYA Hair Root Regen Scalp Nourishing Oil
Excess sun exposure makes your hair brittle, rough and dry apart from reducing lustre and strength. The Kaya’s Hair Root Regen Scalp Nourishing Oil is made with macadamia nuts, olive oil and avocado—and is known to restore hair health. This non-sticky and lightweight formula promotes hair growth, provides nourishment, softens the strands and helps control hair fall.
4. Fix My Curls Scalp & Strands Elixir Hair Oil
This multitasking pick protects the hair from heat damage, adds shine and reduces breakage. Saturated with golden seaweed, retinol and 11 nutrient-rich oils, it deeply nourishes the locks, eliminates dandruff and soothes the scalp. This product is as lightweight as a hair serum, but does the job of a hair oil.
5. Aaranyaa Rejuvenating Hair Oil
Revitalise your hair and scalp with bhringraj, shikakai, amla and gotu kola (popularly known as centella asiatica today)—that all have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. It addresses concerns like hair fall, thinning, dandruff and dry scalp, while also improving blood circulation to the scalp and stimulating hair growth.
