What is Marula Oil ?

Marula oil is a high-hydration concentration oil from the Marlua tree, which is commonly found in South Africa and parts of West Africa. The oil is derived from the kernels of the fruit of the tree, which is a greenish/yellowish color. 

The oil is produced by women in local villages in South Africa & Madagascar where the oil is cold pressed from the fruit's kernels. The oil has been part of the beauty practices of South Africa for a very long time.

 

How can Marula oil help my hair?
Marula oil contains many nutrients that hydrate and protect the hair. It has approximately 8 times the amount of vitamin C found in oranges. Additionally, marula oil also contains oleic acid, which protects the hair and skin against the environment. Specifically, oleic acid helps retain moisture in the hair increasing hydration while also helping make the hair softer and frizz-free. The antioxidants and essential minerals in this oil help protect the hair from UV rays as well as heat damage from styling.

How often should I shampoo?

For the average person, every other day, or every 2 to 3 days. However, the frequency of shampooing is very dependent upon a person's body chemistry, activity level and hair texture. If hair is noticeably oily or you are experiencing an itchy scalp or if there’s flaking due to dirt, those are signs that a shampoo is needed. For curly hair types, special attention should be given to how frequently the hair is washed as harsh sulfates can strip the hair of its natural oils. The RepLenish Shampoo is sulfate- and paraben-free and will not strip the hair of its vital natural oils if frequently used.
