L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Smooth Intense Anti-Frizz Serum

I have thick frizzy hair at times and purchased this product to combat the frizz. This was going to be a cheaper alternative to buying moroccan oil. Unfortunately this product when it dried made my hair frizzer. I spoke to hairdressers about this and they said that it was water based. I do not know how correct this is but it definitely did not help me with fly aways and frizz. I think my hair was too thick and dry for this product.

I use it sparingly ( as i am concsious of my naturally oily - limpy hair) and it works fine... great to get rid of bed hair/frizz if i washed my hair the night before. Also use a tad bit after straightening to take the edge of the heat damage every now and then... leaves hair nicely tame and frizz free until next wash :)

The bottle and packaging are really attractive in gold. I really love the pump style. I have been having a great deal of trouble with dry ends and my hairdresser has had to trim my hair quite severely every 8 weeks. Today after using the serum for a couple of weeks I have a happy hairdresser and my hair is behaving.

After shampooing and conditioning I towel dry my hair and apply 2 pumps of serum to the ends of my hair. I then brush it through and style my hair into shape with my dryer. The serum is just amazing the way it makes my hair behave. I do not need to work very hard to get all the frizzy bits down. While drying my hair today my hairdresser was really impressed with the way my hair styled so easily without a brush or comb to force my hair into a bob shape. The heat seems to bind the oil into the hair shaft and leaves my hair silky and light and smooth. All in all I am well pleased with this product and will continue to use it.

This is a good product that comes in a nice, little pump bottle which makes it very easy to apply. It doesn't really have much of a smell as compared to other similar oils.

I have fine, medium length hair that tends to get frizzy and full of static. I apply a bit of this to my ends after running the straightener through and it leaves my hair smooth and silky. A little goes along way - I start with one pump, rub my hands together, then lightly comb through the ends with my fingers. If you use too much it can make your hair look a little greasy.

A good product that I will use again. I've had the same bottle for a year and a half and am only about halfway through it so great value for your money.

Unfortunately this did nothing for my hair at all. I have long hair and get a bit of frizz so was very excited to try this, I used it for a week straight tying different amounts everyday to see if it made any difference but nope, just not for me, have read a lot of good reviews on it so give it a go and see if it suits you hair type.

Yes it does make your hair soft, but only appearing so. This stuff is covers your hair in silicons and has little to no nourishing ingredients for your hair.

But if you're just looking for something that will make your hair appear smoother then this product works fine.

I bought a bottle of this long time ago. I had a lot of static and frizz so I wondered if this would help smooth things. What I do like about this is that it does help smooth and tame fly aways. When I do straighten my hair a tiny amount adds a nice sheen. If I apply a bit on wet hair after washing my hair dries a bit straighter. The pump can be locked at the top so you don't have to worry about a mess in your drawer or bag. Also because a little goes a really, really long way you a bottle will last you ages. The cons of this product are that it's easy to over apply. Some hair oils or serums you reapply the next day or the day after if your hair is dry. This serum weights down your hair so while this is good for fly aways it can make your hair look greasy and limp. It's best suited to straight hair styles where a nice shine in the lengths look good, but if you are styling your hair with volume and waves or curls this will weigh it down. Some hair oils and serums you can use for both hairstyles to add shine, but this doesn't have that versatility since it weighs down hair. You can use this to tame fly aways but only on the mid lengths of your hair as if you put it any farther up your hair will look greasy. I also don't recommend putting applying to dry hair unless you just straightened it. So overall while this is a good product for straight hair styles it seems to lack that versatility that some other hair oils and serums I've used have. I can't recommend this for short shoulder length hair since it would make your hair look weighed down and greasy. I'm not sure if I would repurchase unless my hair was permanently straight. But I don't need to worry about that for a very long time since I still have half the bottle left.

I repurchased this a few times now I've tried many other brands/types of serums but I always seem to come back to this one. Decent price and good sied bottle I literally use a little in wet hair to stop it from drying frizzy/fluffy and a tiny drop rubbed in my hands and run through ends of my damaged hair after straightening and it gives shine :)

I brought this for my daughter as she has long, blond, curly hair and its very thick! She struggles with frizz on a day basis and brushing even gets really difficult when frizz is at an extreme level. When I tried this in her hair, straight away there was a huge change in the way I was able to manage her hair. The only down fall is because she has such thick hair we tend to use a lot of product. Being an oil its runny and if you don't rub your hands together and slowly add more more to get the results u need. I'm able to brush her hair without her being in pain and tears. I highly recommend this for mums with children who have long frizzy hair as it makes life so much more easier. I found using it with dry hair is a lot more easier and affective than when you place in wet hair like the directions indicate to do.
