Sohair Argan Oil Hair Care Guide: Moroccan Oil for Damaged and Dry Hair
Sohair builds its range around Moroccan argan oil - a well-established hair care ingredient known for its fatty acid and vitamin E content. The 8+ products on skinsli include a 100ml argan oil serum, large-format Damage Care Shampoos and Treatments, and a combined set. This guide covers how argan oil works for damaged hair and how to use the Sohair range effectively.
Why Moroccan Argan Oil Works for Damaged Hair
Moroccan argan oil (from the Argania spinosa tree) is high in oleic acid, linoleic acid, and vitamin E - a combination that penetrates the hair shaft to reduce brittleness and improve elasticity, while also coating the cuticle to smooth frizz and add shine. For chemically processed hair (bleached, permed, or straightened), argan oil is particularly useful because those treatments deplete the hair's natural lipid content. Replenishing lipids with an oil-based treatment or oil-infused shampoo and conditioner helps restore flexibility and reduces breakage over time.
Argan oil is a lighter oil than many alternatives (coconut oil, castor oil) and does not weigh down fine hair as noticeably, making it accessible for a broader range of hair types beyond thick and coarse hair.
Moroccan Argan Oil Premium 100ml: Leave-In Serum Application
The Sohair Moroccan Argan Oil (100ml) is a concentrated serum-format oil applied directly to the hair without rinsing. Two SKUs appear in the current assortment - both labeled 100ml - likely representing the same formula in different packaging iterations. Apply 2-5 drops (depending on hair length and thickness) to towel-dried hair after washing, focusing on mid-lengths to ends. Avoid applying to the scalp, where oil buildup can cause congestion. For very dry or frizzy hair, you can also apply a small amount to dry hair as a finishing step to smooth flyaways. At 100ml, a single bottle provides months of daily use when used in this precise, targeted way.
Nourishing Damage Care Shampoo: 500g, 1000g, and 1000ml Formats
Sohair's Damage Care Shampoo is available in three formats: 500g, 1000g, and 1000ml. The 500g size is a mid-range format suited for a single person or small household. The 1000g and 1000ml sizes are large professional-supply formats that provide significantly more applications per purchase at a lower cost per wash. The difference between the 1000g and 1000ml is the weight versus volume measurement - these are typically close in liquid volume for a shampoo of standard density. The argan oil in the shampoo provides some nourishment during the wash cycle, though the contact time is shorter than a leave-in or treatment product. The shampoo is the foundational cleansing step; the treatment adds the more intensive repair.
Nourishing Damage Care Treatment 1000g and 1000ml: Deep Conditioning
The Damage Care Treatment is available in 1000g and 1000ml sizes - both large professional formats. The treatment is applied after shampooing to mid-lengths and ends, left on for 2-5 minutes, and rinsed. The argan oil content in the treatment is typically higher than in the shampoo, making the treatment the primary argan delivery step in a two-product routine. At 1000g or 1000ml, the treatment provides many months of weekly or twice-weekly deep conditioning. For very damaged hair (heavily bleached or over-processed), using the treatment after every wash rather than weekly provides more consistent barrier support.
Nourishing Shampoo 1000g + Treatment 1000g Set: Starting the Full Routine
The combined set pairs the 1000g shampoo with the 1000g treatment - the two core products in the Sohair Damage Care range bundled together. This is the most practical starting format for someone who wants to commit to the full system without buying the products individually. Sets also typically offer marginal savings over purchasing both products separately. The 1000g + 1000g pairing provides several months of daily washing and twice-weekly treatment for a single person, or a shorter period for two people sharing the products.
A Simple Routine with Sohair Products
A complete Sohair routine for damaged hair: wash with the Nourishing Damage Care Shampoo, apply the Nourishing Treatment from mid-lengths to ends and leave for 3-5 minutes, rinse. Towel-dry gently without rubbing. While hair is still damp, apply 2-4 drops of the Moroccan Argan Oil serum to the lengths, distributing with fingers or a wide-tooth comb, then style as usual. The shampoo cleanses without stripping, the treatment rebuilds the lipid layer, and the serum provides a final coat of argan oil that smooths the cuticle and adds shine. For very damaged hair, increase the treatment frequency from twice weekly to every wash until the hair improves in elasticity and reduces breakage.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can I apply the Sohair Moroccan Argan Oil 100ml directly to my scalp?
Direct scalp application of the argan oil serum is not recommended as a standard practice. The scalp produces its own sebum, and adding oil on top can build up and weigh down roots or contribute to scalp congestion, particularly for oily scalp types. Apply the argan oil serum to mid-lengths and ends only - this is where the hair is most damaged and most dry. If you have a very dry or flaky scalp, a small amount massaged in once a week is reasonable, but rinse thoroughly and do not leave it on the scalp daily.
What is the difference between the Sohair Damage Care Shampoo 1000g and 1000ml?
The 1000g and 1000ml refer to two different measurement units for the same approximate product volume. A liquid shampoo at standard density is close to 1 gram per ml, so 1000g and 1000ml are typically nearly the same amount. Both formats contain the same Nourishing Damage Care formula. The difference may be in packaging type (bottle shape or closure style) rather than formula. Both provide the same number of applications.
How long should I leave the Sohair Nourishing Treatment on before rinsing?
For standard maintenance conditioning, 2-3 minutes is sufficient. For damaged or very dry hair, extending to 5-10 minutes increases the treatment's penetration and nourishment. You can also use the treatment as an intensive mask once a week - apply generously to towel-dried hair, wrap in a warm towel, and leave for 15-20 minutes before rinsing. Heat opens the cuticle slightly and allows more of the argan oil content to absorb during the extended contact time.
Is Sohair argan oil suitable for fine or thin hair?
Argan oil is one of the lighter oils in the hair care category, making it more suitable for fine hair than heavier oils like castor oil or coconut oil. The key is application technique: use 1-2 drops only on fine hair (not 4-5), apply only to ends, and avoid the roots and first few inches of the length. If your fine hair still feels weighed down, try applying the oil to completely dry hair after styling rather than damp hair before blow-drying - this gives a shinier, lighter-feeling result with minimal weight addition.
Should I buy the Sohair Shampoo in 500g or 1000g?
If you are trying Sohair for the first time, the 500g is a lower-commitment size to confirm the shampoo works for your hair before buying the larger format. For a single person washing hair 3-4 times per week, 500g lasts approximately 2-3 months. If you are satisfied with the product or if two people are sharing it, the 1000g gives better value per gram and reduces reorder frequency. The combined 1000g shampoo + 1000g treatment set is the most cost-efficient starting point if you want the full damage care routine from the beginning.
