Essential CC Oil 60ml — multi-benefit leave-in hair oil for colour care, conditioning, and brilliant shine.
About this product
KAO Essential CC Oil (60ml) is a multi-function leave-in hair treatment oil from the Essential range — Japan's long-running hair care line trusted for delivering salon-level results at home. The CC Oil format is designed for colour-treated hair in particular: CC stands for Color Care, and the formula works double duty — protecting colour vibrancy from UV degradation and daily washing while simultaneously providing deep, glossy conditioning. The lightweight oil penetrates the cortex to repair damage from chemical processing, then coats the cuticle with a long-lasting shine layer that resists frizz and controls flyaways. One or two drops is all that's needed for noticeably transformed, glass-like hair.
How to use
- After washing and towel-drying hair, apply 1–3 drops (adjust for hair length and density) into the palm
- Rub palms together to warm the oil and distribute evenly
- Work through mid-lengths and ends — focus on the most damaged sections and avoid the scalp
- Style as usual — blow-dry, diffuse, or air-dry; the oil works in any heat environment
- For extra smoothness and shine, apply a single drop to dry hair as a finishing treatment
Ingredients
- Camellia sinensis (tea) seed oil — traditional Japanese hair oil prized for cuticle smoothing, deep moisture, and exceptional shine without heaviness
- Argan oil (Argania spinosa kernel oil) — rich in oleic acid and tocopherols; penetrates the cortex to restore elasticity in colour-damaged hair
- UV absorber (Ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate) — protects hair colour molecules from fading under UV exposure
- Dimethicone — lightweight surface silicone that smooths the cuticle and controls frizz in humid conditions
- Tocopherol (Vitamin E) — antioxidant that neutralises free radicals generated during heat styling
- Fragrance — light, elegant Essential signature scent that leaves hair pleasantly fragranced
FAQ
Can Essential CC Oil be used on non-coloured hair?
Yes — the conditioning and shine benefits are valuable for any hair type; the CC name refers to colour-care capabilities, not a requirement for coloured hair.
Is 60ml suitable as a travel-size?
Yes — 60ml is within standard carry-on liquid limits for most airlines.
Can I use it as a scalp treatment?
Avoid applying directly to the scalp as it may cause oiliness; focus on mid-lengths and ends.
How often should I use it?
Daily use after washing is appropriate; adjust the amount based on hair texture — less for fine hair, more for thick or coarse hair.
Will this make fine hair greasy?
Use a single drop for fine hair and focus entirely on the ends; the lightweight formula is designed to absorb without weighing hair down.
