Arvazallia Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask and Deep Conditioner for Dry or Damaged Hair (8.45 oz Jar)

FIRST, A NOTE ABOUT HAIR PRODUCTS CONTAINING ALCOHOL: Fatty alcohols also known as "oily" condition your locks. Here's a tip: say yes, to the alcohols that start with "c" and "s." Cetearyl alcohol Cetyl alcohol Stearyl alcohol "It's easy to see why "alcohols" are confusing to the average cosmetic label reader. People misinterpret ingredients that have alcohol in their name to be the volatile alcohol that we're most familiar with (ethanol). But, as mentioned above, fancier fatty alcohols, such as cetyl alcohol are not drying; instead, they are actually conditioning to hair and skin." "Cetearyl alcohol is a white, waxy, solid material in the form of flakes. It is oil soluble, but it is not water-soluble. It is a mixture of fatty alcohols. An alcohol in this sense is not a fermented mixture; it is a chemical compound of a certain molecular structure based on carbon and oxygen. Fatty alcohols were originally prepared from fats and oils by hydrolysis, which produces fatty acids. These were then hydrogenated to form fatty alcohols. More efficient forms of hydrogenation enable fatty alcohols to be formed directly from triglycerides (vegetable oils). Cetearyl alcohol is a wonderful emulsifier. In creams and lotions, it supports the main emulsion system and gives texture to the product. In conditioners, it creates a thickening effect. Cetearyl alcohol in combination with other ingredients in the formula (such as triethanolamine and stearic acid) forms an emulsion. This stops the oil and water from separating. They break down easily when applied to allow the lovely ingredients to benefit the skin/hair. Its emulsifying quality enables effective fresh ingredients to be emulsified. Cetearyl alcohol is used across our entire range of fresh products as an emulsifier. The result is an effective product, which detangles the hair, leaving it with shine and excellent condition." AND NOW, ONTO MY REVIEW: I decided to try some hair mask products, and in my search, I stumbled across several reviews of Arvazallia and what appeared to be legit before and after pictures. I also noticed this product had an AMAZING introductory price on Amazon. So I figured–why the hell not? I bought the hair conditioning mask and the oil treatment. After purchasing, I received several follow up emails from Arvazallia, who appear to be extremely invested in the satisfaction of their customers. Shorty after that, the product arrived in the mail. Simple, easy to use packaging that wasn’t leaking (plus!) and it smelled HEAVENLY! I’ve tried other argan products in the past (will review them eventually as well) but none have smelled this wonderful. Between the great price and the fabulous scent, I was hoping the product would perform. I have since used the hair mask 4 times (twice a week since it arrived) and have used the oil treatment every day for 2 weeks. If your hair isn’t as treacherous as mine, you could probably use the hair mask once a week or twice a month or once a month or whatever suits your hair care needs. The treatment only takes 5 minutes, however, due to how damaged my hair is, I did my treatments: 30 minutes, overnight, 30 minutes, overnight. I figured . . . why not? Might be overkill if you hair is generally healthy, though. The oil I used daily on the ends of my hair only, which gave a nice immediate improvement in appearance. Things I love about this product: Smells fantastic, easy to use, leaves hair smooth and manageable, perfect packaging means no leaks that waste the product (considering how often this happens with beauty products, it’s worth mentioning). Quality and Value are also worth mentioning, at least at the price I bought this at. The price was unbeatable compared to similar products and a little goes a long way, so I can see this lasting me a long time. The mask may go a little quicker than the oil, only because so little oil is needed for the hair and you get so much of it, but also because I am using the mask twice a week which is probably not necessary for most people. However, I did notice that the first time I used the mask, my hair seemed to soak it all in so much that I needed to use quite a bit, but after that, the moisture in my hair was so improved that I needed much less conditioner on subsequent applications. It’s also worth mentioning that my results are NOT due to suddenly conditioning my hair every day when I wasn’t before. I have been doing a deep treatment conditioning of my hair for months now in the same manner and using hair oils for a couple months now (and I’ve always only washed my hair once a week–before you say eww, this is actually REALLY healthy for your hair.) Those products DID give me results, however, I would say that this product did for my hair in 2 weeks what those products took 4 months to do for me, and I think by this point I was capped out on what those products could do for me. I also had to use a detangler then, but I no longer need one! So . . . yeah, I guess I’m a fan of Arvazallia now! That said, what I find impressive and what you find impressive may differ. My hair problems might also be different from yours. My hair is INSANELY dry and the dead ends have gone to epic extremes, so my hair needed this. All that said, I will now let the before and after results speak for themselves. Check the customer images for more, along with details about how I take my before and after pictures (always on product-free, residue-free, naturally air-dried hair).

I’ve really enjoyed using Arvazallia’s Hydrating Argan Oil Hair Mask. After shampooing and leaving it on for just a few minutes, my hair feels noticeably softer, smoother, and deeply hydrated. My hair gets very dry and wire-like as I age—almost like thin metal strands—but since using this product, it looks much healthier, shinier, and not dry-looking at all. It also makes my hair much easier to detangle and manage, even after heat styling or coloring. I appreciate that it doesn’t leave any heavy or greasy residue, which is something I often worry about with deep conditioners. The scent is pleasant, and the creamy texture spreads easily, so a little goes a long way. After each use, my hair looks refreshed, nourished, and almost salon-treated. Overall, it’s a wonderful option for anyone with dry, damaged, aging, or chemically treated hair who wants to bring back softness and shine.

This is a good hair mask. It hydrates well and makes my hair more manageable. It’s not a miracle product, but you can definitely see a difference after a few uses. Great for dry or damaged hair. Smells nice and has a creamy texture.

My hair-cutter told me this would help fix my dry hair. The next hair-dresser (on next cut) asked, "Why is your hair so dry!?" Yikes. I told her. She then said: "No, you need something else." And I will report that this Argan product makes my hair very smooth and shiny (I use it for "dress up occasions"), but it ultimately is not a "dry hair fix." Here's what I switched to and bought here on Amazon, and I really like it: "2 Pcs Super Milk Conditioning Hair Primer, Super Milk Conditioner Hair Detangler Spray, Softening Moisturizing Nourishing Smooth Hair Care,Suitable for All Hair Types "

The texture of this mask is rich and creamy without feeling heavy, and it spreads easily through damp hair without needing much effort. The scent is soft and pleasant, leaning more toward a clean, warm note rather than anything overly perfumed. The jar feels sturdy and practical in the shower, with a wide opening that makes it easy to scoop out product even with wet hands. From the first use, it gives the impression of being made for dry or stressed hair rather than something lightweight or temporary. After using it once or twice a week for several weeks, hair feels noticeably softer and easier to detangle, especially at the ends. It rinses out cleanly without leaving a greasy film, and strands look smoother and more controlled once dry. Frizz is reduced, and hair feels more flexible instead of stiff or coated. A small drawback is that finer hair types may need to use a lighter hand, as applying too much can make roots feel weighed down. Overall, this is a solid choice for anyone dealing with dryness, damage, or over-processed hair who wants noticeable improvement in manageability. It works particularly well for thicker textures or hair that needs extra moisture and softness. Those with very fine or easily weighed-down hair may prefer something lighter. Given the results, scent, and how long the jar lasts, the price feels very reasonable for the quality.

Amazing product. I love how this makes my hair feel - very hydrated after use. Has a great smell and adds some shine to my hair. It’s been recommended I use this to repair some breakage I have as well to help improve my hair elasticity. I haven’t tried it yet for that purpose, but will definitely be trying it now. It is somewhat expensive, but for the amount you get and how much I love it, I personally feel it has the value for the money. I highly recommend and have even started giving as gifts to some of the women in my family. They’ve all loved it, too.

It really suits my hair, gives it a healthy shine and makes it more soft and manageable

I'm compelled to write a glowing review because this product is excellent, so if you're not sure, let this review be your sign! My hair is very dry, and very thick. I've used this product twice - as conditioner - after shampooing. I leave it in for about 3 minutes before rinsing completely. Both times my hair has been SO soft and SO hydrated, that even my ends look smoothed out. I still need to style for curly hair using a curl creme afterwards, but the BOUNCE. I'm telling you this is a great treatment. It's quite gloopy and thick so you only need a little. And it smells really delish. I highly recommend for dry, thick hair.

Best mask I ever tried

I received as scheduled. But the inside selling was opened.

Me dejó el cabello muy sedoso, manejable . Si vale la pena comprar
