Onuoha loves rich, natural oils over hair serums for imparting shine (think argan oil and jojoba oil), but she also likes silicone-based oils.

Nowadays, most silicones used in hair care are lightweight and very easily washed out — their benefits by far outweigh any negatives. “Silicone-based oils can help lubricate the hair shaft, making it look and feel smoother,” says Onuoha, “all while protecting it from the outside environment.”
