For over a decade, Moroccanoil has risen in popularity in the hair and beauty world. The signature Moroccanoil Treatment is known as one of the best oils for all hair types, and we certainly agree. In this dedicated brand guide, we’re putting Moroccanoil in the spotlight and revealing our top 10 best Moroccanoil products.
BEHIND THE MOROCCANOIL BRAND
One revolutionary product pioneered a new category in the hair industry, which ultimately led to a full line of hair and body products. That product was notably the Moroccanoil Treatment. Since then, the brand has paved the way for a plethora of nourishing and antioxidant-rich argan oil infused products. Shiny, lustrous locks may well be the raison d’être for each product, but we feel their collections go beyond that. Their innovative, easy-to-use and performance-driven formulas dramatically transform all hair types - and that’s important to know. Whether you have coarse, frizzy, curly hair or light blonde, damage-prone locks, there’s a range for you and everything in between. Dedicated to providing the highest quality products, today Moroccanoil has grown into an iconic beauty brand loved by all - stylists and guests.
The backstory: Moroccanoil was co-founded in 2000 by Carmen Tal after she had discovered the power of Argan oil on an overseas trip. It was then that she had witnessed first-hand the power of the Moroccanoil Treatment as it instantly revitalised her damaged hair.
We can't stress this point enough - it's perfect for all hair types. Moroccanoil have been creating the proper canvas for hair and serving millions of people around the world for over a decade. If its lasting conditioning and repair benefits are anything to go by – it’s no surprise why it’s a stylist favourite brand. Not to mention, the signature Moroccanoil scent is iconic in itself; memorable and exotic, conjuring images of a relaxing beach-side vacation and the feeling of indulging in a luxurious spa. What’s more, the collections are fuss-free, natural and effortless. All the qualities we know our salon guests look for in their hair regime.

The mask is infused with antioxidant-rich argan oil and nourishing ingredients, notably resulting in extra goodness for your hair. It hydrates and conditions while significantly improving hair's texture, elasticity, shine and manageability.

For hair that looks and feels healthier, we just can’t rate this shampoo enough. It's gentle enough for daily use and provides optimal hydration for both normal and colour-treated hair. Increase your hair's manageability together with added smoothness and shine. Oh and in case you’re wondering… it’s sulfate-free, phosphate-free and paraben-free.

We could all do with a little extra body and lift now and then couldn’t we? In fact, we’d happily have fuller, thick-bodied hair all year round! The Extra Volume Conditioner volumizes and gives fine hair body, shine and manageability without weighing it down, unlike some other conditioners. And, (you’ve guessed it) it contains antioxidant-rich argan oil as well as fortifying nutrients like linden bud extract. This volumizing conditioner transforms hair from lifeless to lively, not to mention its smoothing and shine-reflecting abilities. It’s also colour-safe, sulfate-free, phosphate-free and paraben-free.
MOROCCANOIL COLOR DEPOSITING MASK (CHAMPAGNE, COCOA, PLATINUM)
Experience temporary color with the treatment benefits of a deep conditioning mask. Sounds too good to be true, right? Available in a range of curated shades, such as Champagne, Cocoa and Platinum, this easy-to-use mask makes it possible to experiment with fashion shades, and by the same token conditions locks. Go ahead and enhance colour vibrancy and dimension between salon visits, particularly if you'd like to experience an alternative hue. It's temporary and light colour formula is delicate and gradually washes out, although it's important to point out that colour results and longevity depend on hair porosity.
