The avocado is native to Mexico, Central America and South America. Throughout history avocado oil has been renowned for its healing and regenerative properties. Rubbing avocado into the hair is believed to add lustre. The oil has been found to penetrate deep into tissue structure, nourishing, enriching and revitalising the skin.
