Is Moroccan Oil worth it?

I've been using Argan Oil from Primark for the last few months and liking it, but it's running out. Is it worth investing in proper Moroccan Oil? Is it really worth it?

Hard to justify the difference in price IMO I found no noticeable difference !

It smells nicer than the cheaper ones and you have to use slightly less.

My mil bought me some for xmas as I couldn't justify the price. It is absolutely fantastic and worth the extra imo. You hardly need any and the difference it has made to my hair is unbelievable. I have very frizzy dry curly hair that most conditioners don't touch.
I suppose if you don't have extreme problems with your hair and are youngish you may not need the expensive stuff though, not sure I would have done 10 years ago.
Hope this helps.

Hm... Jury's out then?

The Argan Oil has made a huge difference tbh. My hair is softer and shinier than ever and I quite like the smell. I guess I'll buy the smallest possible one I can at least compare them.

Am a bit confused by this question. 100% argan oil is the best stuff not something which is not 100%. Pure argan oil lasts forever so is not an expensive product when you consider how long it lasts.

OP, take a look here, they seem to be almost the same thing.

I'd love to use pure Argan oil, sadly I can't justify the price right now.

I've been using Morocanoil for about a year and I tried something from Boots once which was recommended on here and was half the price. It didn't even come near to what Moroccanoil did for my hair. I gave it away after a couple of tries and bought another bottle of Moroccanoil. It is £30, but it lasts forever. It might be worth signing up for Buyapowa updates. That's the only place I've ever seen it cheaper - in fact, since I was the first person to sign up for the buy, I got it for free!

My argan ok was about 11 quid I think and has lasted way over a year.

I got the one in a red box from boots, was £15 on offer at £10. Wish I had just got the Moroccan oil, the cheap in isn't a patch on it and wasted £10. Ho hum...
