Yes, hair can absorb oil to some extent, particularly if it is porous or damaged. Natural oils produced by the scalp can also accumulate on hair strands, contributing to a greasy appearance. Additionally, hair products containing oils can coat the hair, making it feel softer but also heavier. However, healthy hair typically repels excessive oil to maintain its balance.
