Amla is Indian gooseberry, and amla oil has been a staple of hair care on the subcontinent for a very long time. KTC's is the traditional preparation, at a price that makes weekly use realistic rather than aspirational.

The oil is dark and slightly herbal. Massaged into the scalp it conditions the skin and eases dryness. Combed through the lengths it smooths the cuticle, so hair looks glossier and feels less rough between the fingers. Where it earns its reputation, though, is breakage. Hair that has been snapping at the mid-lengths tends to hold together better once amla is part of the weekly routine, and holding on to what you already have is most of what length retention amounts to.

  • Apply to scalp and lengths, massage, leave for an hour or overnight
  • Wash out with a gentle shampoo
  • Once or twice a week rather than daily
  • 165ml/5.58 oz per bottle

Suitable for type 2a to 4a, and it works equally well on relaxed and natural hair. The one thing to plan around is the wash. Amla is a proper oil rather than a leave in, and it wants a real shampoo to come off, so put it on the night before a wash day rather than the morning after one.
