Tracee Ellis Ross Reveals Her Hair 'Miracle!'

Last week, Soft-Sheen Carson Optimum Salon Haircare invited me and fellow beauty bloggers and editors to an event introducing their newest product launch — the Miracle Oil Collection, here in New York City.

Hosted by one of our fave "curlfriends," actress Tracee Ellis Ross, shared her personal experiences using the products (6-in-1 Miracle Oil, Miracle Oil Hair Moisturizer, Miracle Oil Hair Crème) on her coveted curls with the audience.

"I love that the 6-in-1 hair oil really goes into the hair and penetrates the cuticles," she said. "I put it (oil) in a spray bottle and I put it in my hair in the shower when it's soaking wet. I move my hair around my shoulders,  flip it over and squish it around with the water in my hair, and I don't need any other products," she continued.

Attendees were also treated to a funny video clip featuring Ross coming to the realization that she could eliminate several products with just one product — the 6-in-1 Miracle Oil.

Miracle Oil Collection available here ($5.99-$8.99).

After the event, I was most excited to try it to see if the multi-purposed  6-in-1 product would really live up to its claims of being a hot oil treatment, daily leave-in conditioner, scalp oil, heat protector, frizz controller, and dry skin hydrator. Luckily, I was pleasantly surprised! I put a few drops of the apricot, argan, avocado, coconut, jojoba, and sunflower-infused oil in my hair and on my daughter's hair to see if it would provide sheen without feeling weighed down and it did! I then rubbed a little on my arms to see if it would absorb quickly without feeling greasy and it did!

I haven't tried the other two products, but the Miracle Oil seems to be a great buy. Plus, it doesn't have an overwhelming scent, which is always good for me. I used it all weekend and so far, it's well on its way to becoming one of my bathroom staples!

Have you tried any of these products? Are you a fan of Tracee Ellis Ross' curls?

I absolutely LOVE T.E.R.! Not only is she a style icon, but her hair is so beautiful and has been an encouragement for me to stay natural for many years. I have never ever heard of any of these products, but I might just give them a go since T.E.R. is endorsing them. Thank you for the information BGG!!!

Your hairstyle will always look great if your hair is shiny, strong and healthy. In my own experience, nutrition is the most important thing to make your hair healthy in a long term.
I was against all artificial vitamins, but found the product which satisfies my demands. This is HairGain formula, manufactured by American company Military Grade. They use natural and herbal compounds. After 4 months of taking this supplement I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of newly grown hair on my head. Also my hair loss has become less severe.
Besides, I never forget to use castor oil from time to time. Natural remedies do help, if you use them right!
