Frequently Asked Questions
Mongongo oil is a nutrient-rich oil extracted from the mongongo nut, native to Southern Africa.

Yes, Ouidad Mongongo Oil is formulated to work across different curl patterns and hair textures. However, the amount you use may vary—those with fine or thin curls may need less product to avoid weighing hair down, while coarser or tighter curls typically benefit from more generous application.
Ouidad Mongongo Oil is versatile and can be applied to both wet and dry hair. On wet hair, it helps seal in moisture and define curls. On dry hair, it works as a frizz-control treatment and styling aid. For best results, apply to damp hair before styling or to dry curls for touch-ups throughout the day.
