The Best Low Porosity Hair Products for a Weightless, Grease-Free Finish

Softer, smoother, shinier, are all words I use to describe my color treated, dry, and damaged hair after an overnight session of Squigs’ Gooseberry Delight Hair Oil. While an overnight isn’t always necessary, it will provide more dramatic results without a greasy residue, especially for people like me, with low porosity hair.

Gooseberry provides amla oil, which has been a beauty treatment in Indian communities for centuries. This product does not contain any added fragrances or dyes that can cause irritation.

An Amazon reviewer says: “You can use this oil as a pre-wash treatment, or as a leave-in. Normally, my hair is too thin to put oil on my hair and just leave it. This one is different! My hair completely soaks it up and feels super soft and shiny, but it doesn’t look greasy or heavy. Amazing!”
