Rejuveniqe by MONAT: 7 Ways I Use This Oil for Healthier Hair (and Skin)

I always find myself telling people about one of the most versatile, effective treatments in my routine, and why Rejuveniqe by MONAT might just become your most-used product, too.

I always find myself telling people about one of the most versatile, effective treatments in my routine, and why Rejuveniqe by MONAT might just become your most-used product, too.

When I was still working as a hair colorist at my Newbury street salon charging $250 for consultations, I used to wish for something that could do more than just coat the hair. I wanted a treatment that nourished the scalp, sealed the ends, softened the skin, and didn't feel heavy or artificial. I tried so many of the options from various brands, and nothing lived up to the hype.

Rejuveniqe by MONAT became exactly what I was looking for. I had almost given up on finding an oil that really worked, until I found this beauty.

This proprietary blend of over 13 plant and essential oils mimics the scalp's natural oils. It's rich in omega fatty acids, antioxidants, and nutrients, but it's not just what's in it. It's how you use it that unlocks its power. Most people will only tell you one or 2 ways that you can use it, but it’s capable of so much more.

Here's how I personally use MONAT Rejuveniqe Oil, along with why each step actually matters, especially if you're trying to grow healthier, fuller, shinier hair.

1. Scalp Pre-Treatment for Hair Growth

This is one of the most underrated, and most powerful, ways to support healthy hair from the root.

I apply a few droppers of Rejuveniqe by MONAT directly to my scalp before shampooing, massage it in with my fingertips or a scalp brush, and let it sit for 60 minutes (or sometimes overnight for THE best treatment) Here's what that's doing:

  • Breaks down buildup. Products, sweat, and excess oil can create a film on the scalp that suffocates your follicles. Rejuveniqe helps dissolve that buildup gently, so your scalp stays clear and balanced.

  • Increases circulation. A light scalp massage with Rejuveniqe Oil encourages circulation and wakes those follicles back up.

  • Calms inflammation. Chronic scalp inflammation is behind a lot of unexplained thinning, shedding, and sensitivity.

💡 Stylist insight: Think of your scalp like soil. If it's compacted, inflamed, or clogged, the roots can't thrive. A few drops of MONAT Rejuveniqe Oil and a gentle massage once or twice a week can make a measurable difference.

2. Ends Treatment to Reduce Breakage

Most people think breakage happens from brushing or styling, but it starts with dry, frayed ends. I take a drop or two, rub it between my palms, and gently press it into the last few inches of my hair.

Why this matters:

  • Your ends are the oldest part of your hair. They've been through years of heat, color, ponytails, and product.

  • Rejuveniqe by MONAT helps restore flexibility and softness, which makes the hair less brittle.

💡 It's not just about growing hair — it's about keeping the hair you grow.

3. Overnight Repair Oil Mask

If my hair feels dry, over-processed, or just blah, I warm a full dropper of Rejuveniqe Oil in my hands and smooth it from mid-lengths to ends. Then I loosely braid or clip it up before bed.

Why this works:

  • Hair absorbs oil best when dry.

  • Leaving it in overnight gives Rejuveniqe Oil time to restore elasticity and softness.

💡 Bonus: Sleeping on a damp scalp can cause fungal growth, irritation, or imbalance. This dry oil mask supports your hair overnight without compromising scalp health.

4. Blow-Dry Smoother + Heat Protectant Boost

I apply just a single drop of MONAT Rejuveniqe Oil to damp hair before blow-drying. It completely transforms the finish.

Why this matters:

  • It reduces friction from towel-drying and brushing.

  • It adds a lightweight barrier to complement your heat protectant.

  • The shine and softness are next-level.

5. Curl Reviver on Non-Wash Days

On day two or three, I refresh each section of hair based on its needs.

  • Scalp + roots: I use MONAT Conditioning Dry Shampoo.

  • Mid-lengths + ends: I mist with MONAT Unknot Detangler, then apply a few drops of Rejuveniqe by MONAT to reshape waves or curls.

💡 Your hair has different zones with different needs. Rejuveniqe helps restore softness where you need it most.

6. Shine Finish for Sleek Styles

For a polished finish, I use a tiny drop of Rejuveniqe Oil over my styled hair.

Then I spray MONAT Studio One Strong Flexi-Hold Hairspray onto my hands or a finishing brush and run that over flyaways.

Why both? Because oil alone doesn’t always tame every frizz, and the light hold hairspray seals everything into place.

7. Skin + Cuticle Nourishment (and a Few Surprising Extras)

This is one of my favorite things about Rejuveniqe by MONAT, it’s not just for hair.

Here's how I use it:

  • On dry cuticles

  • Mixed with my nighttime moisturizer

  • Dabbed over makeup for a glow finish

  • On dry elbows, knees, or hands

  • Even on my Yorkshire Terriers’ ponytails to smooth tangles and prevent dryness

💡 Rejuveniqe Oil absorbs fast, supports your skin barrier, and never feels greasy.

Whatever it is, the way you Megan Graham is a lifelong competitive athlete and two-time "Best of Boston" award-winning hairstylist with 24 years in the professional beauty industry. After building a successful career in Boston, her world shifted when she developed sensitivities to the fragrances and chemicals she'd worked with for years.

What she discovered surprised her: not only could she find effective low-tox products, many performed better than their conventional counterparts. But it took years of testing and significant investment to separate what truly works from what's just marketed well.

Today, Megan shares those discoveries and brings new wellness modalities into the spotlight - helping others discover solutions they might never have known existed. For her, it's what makes everything feel like it happened for a reason: turning her own health challenges into a way to genuinely help others feel beautiful without compromise.
