Spotting the knock-offs!

Argan Oil is expensive because of the rarity of the Argan Tree which grows only in the Southwest region of Morocco. 


It takes no less than eight (8) Argan trees to produce one litre of pure Argan Oil so when you find a brand that’s too cheap, best to take a look at the list ingredients because you may not be buying 100% pure Argan Oil (other brands mix vegetable or coconut oil with Argan to lower the cost).

Rassoul and Hair
Found exclusively in the Moroccan Atlas, rassoul is a type of clay rich in nutrients, silica, magnesium, iron, and potassium. Its high mineral concentration makes it an ideal tonic treatment for the entire body. 
The word rassoul comes from the term "rassala," which means "to wash" in Arab. In Morocco, it is a customary to gift it to young brides.
Rassoul has been used in the Middle East for more than 1,000 years both as a cleaning product and a beauty care treatment for the skin and the hair. Women use it a lot in the hammam for the rhassoul body wrap joined with black soap, the Kessa glove and argan oil.
Rassoul does wonders to make your hair silky, shiny and voluminous. Being one of the best-kept secrets in Morocco, rassoul infuses itself in your scalp with a unique blend of oligo-elements while taking away all impurities.

When used in combination with argan oil, it helps activate the toning and moisturizing properties of argan oil that brings lust and shines in your hair. Furthermore, rassoul purifies and deeply cleanses the hair thanks to its sponge properties, which allow it to absorb dirt. Rassoul used jointly with shampoo help fight dandruff and greasy hair.
How to use rhassoul with the hair:
Rassoul does not replace shampoo, but can be used on greasy hair twice a week, and once a week on dry hair. It will not affect the color of dyed hair.
For an express home treatment, use the rassoul in the shower by applying it on wet hair starting from the scalp and finishing with an evenly application on the whole head. Let the rassoul act without putting any water on the hair for at least five minutes and then rinse the hair before continuing with your shampoo.

During a traditional hammam treatment, the rhassoul is uniformly applied on wet hair. Then, a relaxation session of about 15-20 is suggested followed by a rinse and a scrub. A moisturizing argan oil treatment is then proposed to maximize the beneficial effects.

How to succeed and keep your hair coloring?
Changing hair color takes us out of our routine and changes our mood. To take advantage of it, here are a few beauty tips to use on your hair before, during and after a hair coloring. Here are our tips for a successful transformation.
Using the right equipment:
Your hair is sacred, do not try to save money by using a low quality hair dye. Try to choose a dye with little or no chemicals and pay special attention to the level of ammonia comprised in the product.
Are you allergic?
The best way to know whether you are allergic is to test the product behind one of your ears a few days before the actual treatment. If your skin reacts and develops an irritation, it is preferable that you do not use the product and even consults a doctor to conduct allergy tests.

Treat your hair with rassoul and argan oil:
It is important that your hairs are well washed and moisturized before a coloring because a hair dye will deteriorate your hair. It is recommended that you do a rhassoul treatment followed by the application of argan oil 24 hours before your coloring. 
A deep wash with Rassoul will keep the protective sebum of your hair and argan oil will nourish, reinforce, and protect your hair from the destructive effects of a hair dye.
Which color to choose?
If you are hesitating between different colors, you should start with the lightest one to give yourself the chance to go darker if ever you do not like it.
Home coloring - read the instruction 
The best way to use a product is to follow the instructions. To avoid bad surprises with your hair, take the time to read the instructions carefully before using the dye. Attentively follow the time limits and the breaks; this is the key to a successful hair dye.
Protect your hands and skin with gloves and a towel. The important thing at this step is to evenly distribute the color. To do so, start from the back of the head and finish in the front. This way, you will have more control on the most important part of your hair. Reapply the product on forgotten areas if necessary.
Maintaining your hair coloring:
Dyed hair needs special attention and specific care. If you are using the right shampoo, you can do a rhassoul treatment on colored hair once a week with no worries. Also, do regular argan oil treatments to preserve shine, hues and to prolong hair brightness.
Time between colorings:
A hair dye is a way to change looks and to express yourself, but do not ruin your hair's natural beauty by doing it too often. Moderation is your best ally to keep healthy and radiant hair.
