Broccoli oil, yes, would be a better choice.

Hello! Basically, you can also use olive oil if you like, but a small percentage of olive oil won't make much difference.

Or I think broccoli oil would work best instead of pomegranate oil. Which do you think would be suitable? Thank you.

Good evening. Can I replace pomegranate oil with olive oil, or is the combination of the two oils too greasy? Thank you.

I have tried all the combinations of hair oils you have on your site but the vegetable silicone seems to me to take away any shine and trace of volume from the hair. It looks worse than before. I prefer to use natural products rather than the commercial ones but hopefully they give better results.

Dear Klotild, the plant silicone gives the serum a light texture. Without it, or using other oils, the product would be too greasy for the hair. Have a nice day!

Dear Elemental! Can silicone be replaced by something else? Is it possible to use karanja oil alone (or mixed with other oils) on hair? Thank you!

Hello Alicia. You can omit the vegetable silicone from the recipe, but in its place we recommend using an oil with as light a texture as possible, such as jojoba, grapeseed, or you can also use squalan. Karanja oil is quite oily and it is not indicated to apply in a high concentration.
