Hair Oils & Serums

Hair oils and hair serums for smooth, healthy-looking hair

Add hydration, shine and softness to your haircare routine with hair oils and serums. Whether you're taming frizz, hydrating brittle ends, supporting a healthier scalp or protecting your hair from heat styling, there's a formula that fits your needs. Many can also double as lightweight leave-ins, giving your hair long-lasting moisture and manageability.

Here are a few of the nourishing ingredients you’ll find in Hairhouse hair oils and serums, and what they can do for your hair:

• Argan oil: This well-loved oil helps smooth frizz, soften dry strands and add shine. It's full of antioxidants like vitamin E, which help improve the appearance of heat-damaged hair, tame frizz and add moisture to dry hair and scalps.
• Coconut oil: This oil is rich in lauric acid, which allows it to absorb deeply into the hair shaft. It helps reduce protein loss, leaving strands softer, smoother and easier to manage.
• Almond oil: This offers lightweight hydration that helps boost shine and smooth flyaways. It’s great for brittle or dry ends and works beautifully on fine hair without weighing it down.
• Marula oil: This ultra-light oil helps soften and smooth the hair without feeling greasy. It’s perfect for adding a light gloss, taming flyaways and making dry hair feel more manageable.

At Hairhouse, we offer hair oils, serums and hair treatments from trusted brands like Olaplex, L'Oréal Professionnel, Moroccanoil, Paul Mitchell, Kérastase and Agadir. You'll find options for frizzy, curly, dry, coarse, brittle and thin hair, with formulas that help smooth frizz, reduce dryness, repair heat damage, boost shine and leave your hair looking healthy and glossy.

Tips for using hair oil based on your hair type

Different hair types benefit from different oil techniques. Whether your strands are dry, fine, frizzy or curly, here are some simple ways to get the most out of your nourishing hair oil:

• For dry or brittle hair: Wash your hair and towel dry. Squeeze a small pea-sized amount of oil into your hands and work it through the mid-lengths and ends. Use a wide-tooth comb to distribute the product evenly and help detangle. This also preps hair for heat styling.
• For overnight hydration: Follow the same steps as above, then wrap your hair in a towel before bed. Rinse with shampoo and conditioner in the morning for softer, healthier-looking hair.
• For frizzy or flyaway-prone hair: Apply a small amount of oil to dry hair using your fingertips. This helps smooth strands and keep frizzy hair under control throughout the day.
• For curly hair: Scrunch a little oil into damp strands to help define curly hair and lock in moisture. Let it air dry for a soft, bouncy finish.

Is hair oil good for your hair?

Of course! Hair oil is commonly used before hairstyling with blow dryers, curlers and straighteners. Not all oils are heat protectants, but many help create a light barrier that reduces moisture loss and protects your strands from drying out or feeling damaged.

Hair oils and serums are also a great addition to your regular routine, even if you don’t use heat styling tools. They're full of fatty acids and antioxidants that add shine, replenish dry locks and support smooth, manageable, healthy hair.

These hair products offer plenty of benefits. Oils deliver much-needed nourishment and moisture to brittle strands, support elasticity to help prevent breakage and provide anti-frizz care by smoothing the hair’s surface.

Top hair oil treatments for hair growth

Want thicker, stronger strands? Using natural hair oils regularly can help. They nourish the scalp, strengthen strands and reduce breakage.

We recommend looking for serums or hair treatments with canola oil. It’s rich in vitamin E, antioxidants and essential fatty acids that support keratin and help maintain a healthy scalp. This can be especially helpful if you are seeing early signs of hair loss or thinning.

To apply, gently massage a small amount of oil into your scalp using your fingertips. It can help boost circulation and support healthy hair growth over time.

Should you use hair oil?

Yes! When it comes to a holy-grail hair styling product, many people put hair oils and hair serums at the very top of their list. Not only do they moisturise your locks and protect them from damage, but they also detangle, de-frizz, add shine and greatly contribute to the long-term health of your hair.

The kind of oil you choose is important. For dry hair, choose a thicker oil like coconut oil, which is deeply moisturising and can be absorbed into the hair strand more effectively than most oils for ultimate hydration.

If you're worried about weighing finer hair down, go for an oil that's light, like Paul Mitchell Marula Rare Oil Light Dry Mist. A quick spritz adds softness and shine without feeling greasy.
