If you have curly, coily, or kinky hair, you already know the journey: keeping moisture in, preventing breakage, and actually seeing growth can feel like a constant challenge. That’s exactly why we created our best-selling Alié Moisture Hair Growth Oil - a formula enriched with biotin, a vitamin often celebrated for its role in supporting strong, healthy hair. But what does biotin really do? And why did we choose it as a hero ingredient for textured hair? Let’s break it down.

What Is Biotin?

Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a vital role in the body’s metabolic processes. Most importantly for hair, it helps the body process amino acids and fatty acids - two building blocks essential for keratin production. Keratin is the protein that makes up your hair, skin, and nails.

While biotin isn’t a miracle fix for hair growth, studies and clinical reports show that people who are deficient in it often experience thinning or brittle hair. Reintroducing biotin in those cases can make a noticeable difference. Even if you’re not deficient, including biotin in your hair care routine can help strengthen strands and support scalp health, giving textured hair the best possible environment to thrive.

How Biotin Supports Curly & Textured Hair

Curly and coily hair has unique needs. Its natural structure makes it more prone to dryness, tangling, and breakage - which often means that length retention (holding onto the growth you achieve) is harder. Here’s how biotin can help:

Strengthening strands: By supporting keratin production, biotin can improve strand resilience, helping curls resist breakage and split ends.

Nourishing the scalp: A healthy scalp is the foundation of hair growth. Biotin contributes to the metabolic health of scalp cells, creating a better environment for follicles.

Reducing stress on fragile textures: Because textured hair naturally bends and coils, it experiences more mechanical stress. Biotin helps keep strands smoother and less brittle, making styling and detangling easier.

Working in synergy: Biotin is most effective when paired with other nutrients and oils - which is exactly how we formulated the Alié Moisture Hair Growth Oil.

Why We Include Biotin in Our Hair Growth Oil

At Alié Moisture, we wanted to create more than just another scalp oil. Our biotin-enriched formula is designed specifically for textured hair:

Targeted delivery: We ensure biotin is paired with nourishing carrier oils that penetrate the scalp.

Balanced formulation: Our blend is light enough for curls but rich enough to lock in hydration.

Complementary actives: Alongside biotin, we include oils and botanicals that boost circulation, soothe the scalp, and protect strands.

This means you’re not only supporting growth at the root but also protecting the length you’ve already achieved.

Your Curl Routine:

To get the most out of the Alié Moisture Hair Growth Oil with biotin:

• Massage it gently into your scalp to stimulate circulation.
  

• Apply to damp hair so the oil seals in hydration.
  

• Use consistently - healthy growth takes time and patience.
  

• Pair it with your moisture and protein care routine for maximum results.

A Balanced Approach to Hair Growth

We believe in transparency. Biotin is not a magic wand - it won’t transform your curls overnight. But what it does offer is support: stronger strands, a healthier scalp, and a better foundation for natural growth. Combined with consistent care, gentle styling, and moisture-rich routines, it can make a real difference in how your textured hair grows and thrives.

At Alié Moisture, our mission is simple: to create hair care that respects and celebrates curls. Our biotin-infused Hair Growth Oil is one step in that journey - crafted with intention, backed by science, and designed with your textured hair in mind.
