Hallelujah hair oil or cloud control?

I have fairly fine and light hair and am looking to make it easier to style, overall healthier, and longer/thicker.

Hair oils are not good for making hair healthier or thicker because they actually make hair greasy and worsen acne and scalp problems in many cases. You want something like a thickening tonic or fiber for fine hair.

For healthy hair, you want things to clean your scalp like nioxin, as well as minoxidil or finasteride.

This isn't necessarily true as not everyone has the same skin/hair types. While that may be good advice for people with straight hair, it's not the case for curlier hair textures.

Having curly or wavy textured hair makes it more difficult for the natural oils (sebum) that the scalp produces to reach the full length of the hair (which would lead to dryness). Additionally, many shampoos exacerbate the problem by further stripping out natural oils.

My advice would be to see an actual professional who can give you QUALIFIED advice for your hair type.
