Hair Care

A good hair oil is one of the simplest ways to protect hair from the UAE's sun, dry air-conditioned rooms and heat styling. Our hair care range is built around a traditional favourite: Yusma Amla Hair Oil, a herbal hair oil with amla, henna and vitamin E.

Our hair oil

Yusma Amla Hair Oil (200ml) softens dry hair, adds shine and makes combing easier, which helps reduce breakage. Use it as a weekly pre-wash massage or a drop or two on dry ends.

Getting the best from a hair oil

• Warm it first: rub between your palms so it spreads evenly.
• Focus on the lengths: the oldest, driest part of the hair benefits most.
• Leave it on: at least 30 minutes before shampooing, or overnight.
• Wash well: a second shampoo may be needed to remove all the oil.
• Do not overdo it: one to three times a week is enough.

Hair oil questions

Which oil is good for hair growth?

No hair oil has strong evidence for making hair grow faster. Oils help by reducing breakage, so you keep more of your length. Sudden or patchy hair loss is a medical issue and should be checked by a doctor.

Is amla oil good for dry hair?

Yes. Coating the hair with oil reduces moisture loss and frizz, so dry hair feels softer and looks shinier.

Can men use hair oil?

Yes. Hair oil works the same way for men and women, and a few drops can also soften a beard.

Can I use hair oil every day?

A drop on the ends is fine daily. A full scalp oiling is better kept to a few times a week to avoid build-up.

Is hair oil good for dandruff?

Usually not. Dandruff is best treated with a medicated shampoo, and oil can sometimes make flaking worse.
