Avocado Oil
Avocado oil is rich in biotin, vitamins, minerals, fatty acids, and antioxidants, making it a powerhouse ingredient for hair. While there aren’t studies that show avocado oil directly stimulating hair growth, it may help create a healthy space for hair to thrive in. “By helping support a healthy scalp environment and strengthen the hair shaft, it may help hair appear fuller and healthier while minimizing breakage that can contribute to the appearance of thinning,” Dr. Garshick agrees.
She likes Kiehl’s Magic Elixir, which combines avocado oil with rosemary leaf and safflower oil to moisturize the scalp and soften any dryness. “It is especially useful for those looking to incorporate scalp care into their routine,” she adds. “While improving hair manageability, smoothness, and shine without adding another leave-in product.” You can also try the Grow-Good Everything Serum, which has a nourishing mix of oils (avocado, coconut, sunflower seed, and more) to seal the cuticle and prevent split ends and breakage.

Argan Oil
Argan oil is extremely nourishing for the hair; it has vitamin E, fatty acids, and antioxidants to protect the hair from environmental aggressors that will cause damage and keep hair feeling smooth and hydrated. Dr. Garshick says that although it has not been proven to stimulate hair directly, what it can do is improve your hair’s softness, reduce frizz, and minimize breakage, which all help hair keep its length and appear fuller.
