Safah’s Natural Virgin Flax Seed Oil Strengthens & Adds Shine for Healthy Hair 8.5 oz
Flax seed oil is better known as a food than a hair product, which is a shame, because the fatty acid profile that makes it useful in a diet does something worthwhile on the outside of a strand too.
This one is virgin and cold-pressed from flax seeds, so the fatty acids survive the extraction. Applied through the lengths it penetrates the shaft and nourishes from root to tip, which makes fragile hair more resilient and cuts down on the breakage and split ends that quietly shorten your hair. It also smooths the cuticle, and a smooth cuticle reflects light, which is where the shine comes from. The 8.5 oz bottle is a working size rather than a sample.
Suitable for all hair types, and tagged here from 2a through 4a. Use it as a pre-wash soak on dry, damaged hair, or a small amount through damp ends as a sealing step. Keep it somewhere cool, since flax oil is less stable than most and does not like heat or light.

Application tips
Two ways to use it. Saturate dry hair an hour before you wash, comb it through and cover, then shampoo twice to shift it. Or take a few drops onto damp ends after washing and leave it there. Do not do both in the same week on fine hair. Shake the bottle before pouring, and keep it in a cupboard rather than on a steamy bathroom shelf.
Results
Hair that snaps easily gets more give in it, so combing and tying up cost you fewer strands.
Ends look less frayed after a few uses, and the surface gets smooth enough to hold a shine rather than looking flat. It is light for an oil, so it can go on damp hair without turning the ends greasy by the afternoon.
Composition
- Flax Seed Oil
