Moroccanoil Moisture Repair Shampoo gently cleanses while infusing hair with argan oil, keratin, fatty acids, proteins & other nutrients. For hundreds of years argan oil has been used by women in Morocco to treat hair & nails in order to counteract the effects of the hot climate. The argan tree, found only in the southwest region of Morocco called Argana, blossoms in the desert-like conditions & produces fruits much like olives yet larger & rounder. Inside the fruit grows a large nut that houses up to three almond-shape kernels which are the source of this miraculous oil. Directions: Apply to wet hair & gently massage into scalp. Rinse & repeat as needed. For best results, follow with Moroccanoil Moisture Repair Conditioner.
