Argan Oil is extracted by hand from the kernels of the Argan Tree
Argan Oil has long been renowned for its skin and hair benefits. It has been used by the Berber tribe in Morocco for centuries.
The oil is extracted through Cold Processing from the kernels of the Argan Tree, keeping the richness of the oil and enhancing the benefits for hair. Although Argan Oil is available from various parts of Africa, the majority of Argan (including ours) comes from Morocco and is produced by a womans cooperative of the Berber tribe.
The composition of Argan Oil is as follows
- 44% Oleic acid
- 30% Alpha-linolenic acid
- 12% Palmitic acid
- 6% Stearidonic acid
- 5% Linoleic acid
- 3% Myristic acid
These are some of the key fatty oils for healthy hair, and one of the reasons that Argan Oil is liquid gold for hair care and for hair care products.
