Reviews
Just like the shampoo/conditioner, I used this solely because I liked the scent. It does make your hair shine, and look sleek, and good thing is you only need a little to achieve that, as too much will make your hair look way too oily. Didn't do anything for frizz though- I still needed to use other products to tame the frizz lol! I would use it again only because it smells so yummy!
I have a weird mixture of straight and wavy hair, so needed a product that could cope with my weird hair type. It is quite an oily product, granted it is a serum, but it left my hair looking flat (heavy) and looking/feeling oily instead of shiny. I also found that it didn't penetrate deep into my hair, it kind of just sat on the top. Not my ideal product.
This product sounds great in writing but for me, that's where it stops. I found my hair was looking more greasy than shiny and left it feeling like it was coated in something and I was using the amount instructed - definitely not the results I wanted! Unfortunately there is nothing positive I can say about this product.
Tips: Do your research and shop around. Consider spending that little bit extra for a quality product if you need to rather than buying alot of cheap, poor quality products.
This oil treatment leaves behind a strange greasy yet matte finished film to my hair which defeats the purpose of even using it to begin with. I don't find it sinks in at all and my hair just looks better without it - and this is even using even just the tiniest amount.
Tips: Save your money for something better - there are better options for even cheaper than this product.
This is one of my favourite serums I've come across! I'm already half-way through my second bottle. Although it's quite an oily product, it definitely helped my hair, my hairs quite dry at the ends but after using it for some time my hair feels softer and looks a lot more tamed, it also gives my hair a nice shine and makes it feel softer when it's straightened. Definitely recommend!
Tips: Try to avoid applying this to the roots of your hair, but apply a little on the ends- a little goes along way for this product.
I found this product didn't deliver on what it claimed, it didn't reduce my frizz and my hair didn't shine..... At least not on it's own anyway.
My hair is coarse, frizzy, wavy/curly, thick and unruly, it is also very dry, brittle and damaged from years of colouring.
After using this product It was soft and manageable albeit still a frizzy fro. The best bit was - that I found that my hair was easier to straighten, or curl and the style lasted twice as long. I found as long as I heat styled after I applied this product I avoided any greasiness when it was dry.
I definitely would buy this product again as a preheat styling product.
Tips: To get the best results I apply this product to towel dried hair, straight after my shower when my hair is still warm, I wrap my hair back in it's towel for another 5 mins to give it any chance to absorb. Think hot oil treatment... I got this tip from a hairdresser (who told me to do this with olive oil - which works equally as we'll providing you don't use so much.) following the five minute towel wrap, I let my hair semi dry before either straightening or curling. ;)
I really love this product. I'm prone to very fuzzy hair days and also when straightening my hair those beloved fly a ways. Just a small amount does the trick. I use this product quite a lot and friends always ask what I use.
Tips: Just a small amount rubbed into your hands and never use it to close to your roots(it will attract a lot of dust) start from the ends of your hair and work your way up
To begin with this product did give me sleek and shiny hair! But i found that as the day went on my hair got greasy, even if I had just washed it that morning (and that never happens). It did keep the frizz away though even in humid weather.
Tips: Do not put near roots!!!
Smells nice. Non-sticky. Cheap. Makes hair glossy. But as many of the other reviews here point out so accurately, it can feel greasy and heavy- like a film that sits on the strands, never penetrating. In saying that, you get what you pay for. It's very inexpensive and does a decent job in terms of serums you can purchase at the supermarket.
Tips: Personally, I prefer Argan Oil, and in this case-rather spend a little more dosh for a better product.
