    I never thought I would ever find a treatment for my fine, blond hair better than Moroccanoil. Essense Absolue is way better. Why? It is lighter and absolutely non-greasy. I wish the smell...

    I agree with the top review that this shouldn't be anything special . It's just silicones blended with a little oil and fragrances. But it IS special! Something about it is just so.... Good! Idk...

    I got a sample of this from my birchbox. I've dried it 5-6 times, and still have a little left. This is the most expensive serum I've ever tried. I must say that it's one of the thickest...

    Good lord, I want to hate this product - at almost $70, it's ridiculously expensive. but no other serum has been as kind and as transformative to my hair. I discovered it 2 years ago and have...

    I can't live without this product. In the summer with the humidity my naturally wavy hair gets "fluffy" and frizzy in the evenings no matter how well I straighten it. However, since I started using...

    My haircutter suggested this to be used on my hair as a treatment. She told me to use this religiously every week, over night on the length ends of my hair. I always knew the Shu products for the...

    First, you have to understand the state of my hair. After 3 straight years of practically daily flat-ironing, it was anything but pretty. My hair is mostly straight in back with waves in the front,...

    Given all the hair oil I have used, I would say that it is an average product. I used it as a pre-wash treatment and soaked my hair in it. I did not notice any visible improvements
