Questions & Answers

How does this recipe work? What ingredients are in it?

In order of appearance, cones follow camellia oil and then cones

Should you put this on before or after using a curling iron?

In my opinion, heat is not necessary for curling my hair. After I returned to using heat, I would put it on again. My routine is to apply this oil after I use my curling mix, then use the diffuser to spread it around.

There are two colors of oil - clear or gold. ?

I'm pleased to see how clear the oil is! The bottle is tinted gold/amber to protect the essential oils from light damage, but the oil is clear. Do not listen to anyone who said gold. The bottle is tinted gold/amber because that is designed to protect the essential oils from the sun.

Could you describe its smell? Would you say it is floral? Is it clean?

Flowers are definitely present, and the scent isn't overpowering. If I hold my hair close to my nose for about 15 minutes, I still can't smell it. As it stands, it would be better if it were stronger so I could create a lingering, seductive effect. smell, it should be just right.

The smell is nice, the material is lightweight, and the color is not weird orange
5/5

I am absolutely in love with this hair oil. I like it because it's lightweight and not sticky There is a nice floral scent to this greasy oil. Most importantly, it is completely clear and won't leave a yellow tint in hair (especially those with platinum colors). While the product is wet, I apply it to my wet wavy hair before spraying on a The waves from my hair are much more manageable now that it is easy to smooth and style without compromising the natural curls. There are some reasons why the bottle may seem deceiving, such as its yellow color, but feel confident that this oil is actually Here's an example in which you can clearly see a difference both in terms of consistency from the other.

Oil for hair that works best
5/5

Photos are available An authentic product like this is rare to find. This oil is my absolute favorite, nothing else comes close. In the past, I have purchased from Sephora, but in the present, I think I will try I received the bottle in good condition- I bought this package from Sephora, but the oil is a completely different shade. The hue of this one is a lot lighter, it isn't filled up to the very tip, and its bubbles are pretty small. The first time I have dealt with an inauthentic product is the first time I have seen other people post about it. It is my hope that you will have a different seller than me.

I was able to protect my hair and keep it tamed
5/5

It has protected my hair from damage and I have been using it for years with a hot iron. I highly recommend it. In spite of my hair being very wavy / frizzy, this product gives it a nice, smooth feel. My hair has been protected from heat damage, which is the best part. My strong recommendation is for this product.

I love the smell and the way it makes my hair look
5/5

I love the smell and the way it makes my hair look. I will be able to use this for at least a year. With shoulder-length medium fine hair and an oily scalp, I have shoulder-length medium fine hair. I use this before or after blow drying, heavier on the ends and very little at the crown, it does wonders for frizzies and gives my hair lots of shine. I use a pea-size amount either before or after blow drying. It's possible to look greasy if you use too much conditioner on your hair. I consider it to be the holy grail of products.

The best hair oil I've ever used! It has been used in my hair for years by my stylist
5/5

The tiny amount I use on my extremely damaged hair goes a long way. This product goes on smooth as silk, is not greasy (unless you apply too much) and makes hair styled and combed easily.

I found this to be sufficient
5/5

It is a staple in my daily life. In addition to combining this with the Kerastase hair products I use, it allows me to go two days without washing my hair. Having shoulder-length hair for the first time since high school is a major adjustment. In my experience, this combination works well. Moreover, this product is extremely popular with my husband as well. There has never been a time when his hair has been so healthy. This will continue to work as long as I buy it.

A pity the price is so high
5/5

I am in love with this product. I have dry ends and it brought life to them. The fact that I'm trying to wash less also helps keep clothes looking great in between washes. It has a slightly floral smell, but it's not overpowering if you don't like perfumes. This is clearly a clear-cut case The color of my hair is ombré, so blondes need not worry about me. A little goes a long way, I think, despite its high price.

There is truth in all the hype
5/5

This is a great oil for hair. I highly recommend it. It is one of the best oils for There is truth in all the hype. It's been years since I started using it. This is a relationship that lasts a lifetime. Many bottles of this product have been purchased. It's never a bad idea to recollect If they had offered different scents, I would have purchased it. The fragrance is very strong, so you get tired of smelling it all the time.
