Best for Softening: Verb Ghost Oil
What we love: This weightless, vanishing oil is perfect for adding shine, smoothing frizz, and providing deep hydration without weighing down your curls. It has the consistency of a hair serum, not an oil, meaning it isn’t runny or sticky—and it never leaves your strands looking greasy. The key ingredient, moringa oil, nourishes and strengthens hair while adding a silky finish.
Our reviewer says: Verb Ghost Oil has become a staple in my curly hair care routine. What I love most is how it instantly absorbs into my hair, leaving no residue behind. I use it daily to provide a subtle yet effective jolt of moisture and protection. My curls feel soft, bouncy, and incredibly shiny after each use. —Mia Nunez, Glamour contributor

Best for Hair Growth: Camille Rose Rejuva Drops
What we love: The Rejuva is rich in castor oil, a thick, odorless oil made of fatty acids that are super nourishing and strengthening for skin and hair follicles. It’s known for potentially promoting hair growth and deeply moisturizing curly and coily hair. Rejuva mixes in saw palmetto, a supplement that works to block dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone associated with hair loss, and peppermint, which increases scalp circulation.
Our reviewer says: After using these drops consistently, I’ve noticed my hair feels thicker, and my scalp feels invigorated and less prone to dryness. The refreshing tingle from the peppermint oil is an added bonus, making the application process enjoyable. My curls have become stronger and have grown noticeably faster, making this product a must-have for anyone looking to enhance hair growth and overall hair health. —Breanna Davis, Glamour contributor

What we love: Here’s an oil that contains a patented peptide that penetrates each strand of hair to its core in order to turn damage around. TLDR; it’s excellent at smoothing frizz and flyaways, adding shine, and enhancing color-treated hair. Additionally, it offers heat protection up to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. You can use it on damp, towel-dried hair prior to styling, or on dry hair to finish.
Our reviewer says: I’m really into more science-y hair products at the moment, and as I was researching hair oils for my curls, I loved how transparent and detailed K18 was about its ingredients. This oil focuses on restoring and building hair strength from within, and while it helps with frizz, flyaways, and dryness, the real focus is on hair health (it doesn’t just coat your hair with oil). Over time my curls have become noticeably stronger, with reduced hair breakage and split ends. While I rarely put heat on my hair, it also offers heat protection, which is extra important for those of us with curly textures. It’s an all-in-one product that promotes the overall health, texture, and appearance of my curls, making them look and feel as bouncy as ever. —Samantha Vargas, Glamour contributor
