Moisturizing Oils vs. Sealing Oils for your Hair

There is a HUGE difference between moisturizing and sealing oils. Moisturizing oils like Coconut Oil penetrate the hair shaft to moisturize the hair. While sealing oils like Castor Oil sit on top of the hair to seal in shine. If you've been using sealing oil as a moisturizer, this may be why your hair still feels dry. If you're using a moisturizing oil as a sealant it is why your hair looks dry.


A moisturizing oil is an oil that is used to penetrate the shaft of the hair and actually moisturize it. Not all oils can do so. The oils that can not penetrate the hair shaft are best used to seal the hair and lock the moisture in. Also, it is best not to use sealing oils on your scalp. Think about it, you will be sealing your scalp causing it to become clogged. A moisturizing oil is best applied to the scalp to help it stimulate hair growth. Here at Silkpress express, we carry oils that are very beneficial for your hair to stimulate growth and retain length.
