My hair is naturally very frizzy and dry, and this is really great for it. It is very easy to apply, smells nice, and soaks in well. Putting it in after washing my hair really helps to tame it, and makes it super shiny too. I also notice when I use it before blow drying my hair, that it goes far less fluffy once I have finished drying, which is normally a huge problem for me!
It's pretty effective and has lasting effects between washes. It makes my hair so nice, and this lasts right up until you wash it next - I find it lasts longer than shampoo smell.
The Loreal anti-frizz serum had a very light consistency but a little bit on the greasy side it took a little bit of washing my hands to get rid of the residue left behind. It was really easy to apply unlock the pump by turning it (arrow on the top in case you forget which way to turn it) and pump into your hands. Lock it again by turning the other way after use, this was great as it meant no spillage/leakage into my makeup bag !. I really liked the fragrance of this anti-frizz serum it reminds me of being at the hairdressers it’s not overpowering in any away but leaves your hair smelling nice and clean and fresh. I didn’t need a lot of this product at all on my hair, I have quite fine thin hair but just a lot of it. The instructions say that to pump several pumps of serum into the palm of your hand and for longer hair more serum may be required. My hair is long and I found a couple of pumps was too much for my hair, it weighed it down too much and it made it a bit greasy. I found I only needed to use one pump as a little really did go a long way. The instructions say that it will give you 48 hours protection from frizz and humidity/dry weather, this was quite true in my case (we haven’t really had any dry weather but humidity definitely and rain !!). I would put this on after washing my hair in the morning , I found this product worked much better in my hair when it was damp and I would either blow dry or leave it to air dry, in both instances it tamed my flyaways/frizz until the next wash at least. I wash my hair most days now unfortunately due to going to the gym in the morning so it was used daily after my wash. Given that you don’t need to use a lot of this product this is ideal for me having to use it every day without breaking the bank !. I didn’t find the packaging anything particularly special however this doesn’t really bother me as its shoved into the bottom of my travel makeup bag anyway so the outward appearance doesn’t bother me on this one. The pump is secure and I had no leakages into my bag so I am one happy camper with that ! there is nothing worse than finding product at the bottom of your bag and over your other items. After using the product every day for a week –I would say it did do what it claimed for me , it keep my flyaway’s at bay, tamed the frizz and left my hair feeling soft and looking shiny and manageable until the next wash (it was a lot easier to style – straighten and tie up it was more pliable and co-operative than usual). It does also say on the instructions that you can apply to dry hair for more intense shine however I found this didn’t work for me (it definitely made it shiny) but it made my hair to slick and greasy…but I do have quite fine hair so it can’t handle many products in it dry. I would definitely recommend this to a friend. Its affordable, will last forever and left my hair feeling better than when it started.
Tips: I would definitely err on the side of caution as to how many pumps you need of this. I only needed one not the several it recommended you can always pump more in if needed.
