About Moroccanoil

Moroccanoil is a salon hair care brand built on argan oil. It was founded in Montréal and is mainly known for its signature treatment oil, which comes in a recognizable amber bottle and is used in salons in many countries.

A bottle also makes an easy gift for someone who loves their hair routine. Many people do not realize this well-known brand began in Montréal.
