Wildcrafted unrefined ungurahua oil (also referred to as rahua or pataua oil) is an incredibly powerful oil for haircare. It is very rich in monounsaturated fatty acids, with oleic acid accounting for 77.6% of its fatty acid content (a much higher concentration than is found in olive oil). Studies suggest that ungurahua oil is very effective at revitalizing damaged hair, increasing hair strength, controlling very frizzy hair, adding shine, improving hair malleability for detangling purposes, and alleviating scalp conditions (such as itching and dandruff).
