This is the best hair oil I have ever come across it’s a game changer
Leaves her so soft and smooth
No greasy look
No frizz
It’s pricy but well worth it
Leaves hair looking shiny and healthy
I always had an issue when I put my hair behind my ears it would always add a curve/crease using this oil prevents all of it
Would defo recommend can also use after styling hair and before as it’s heat resistance up to 250degrees can use as a normal oil before washing too.
I absolutely love this. I have very curly but quite fine hair that tends to be fairly dry. This has done wonders and I’ve had so many compliments from random strangers since I’ve used it. Have taken a photo on my phone of it so I can show other people with curly hair who ask me what I use. Will definitely be using it from now on.
My hair is so soft and shiny, no longer frizzy and it smells lovely
This hair oil works wonders on dull and frizzy hair. It helps in sealing split ends and provides long-lasting frizz control. The blend of Argan, Camellia, and Marula oils leaves hair shiny and smooth. It’s lightweight and has a pleasant fragrance, making it versatile for both dry and wet hair. However, it can be a bit pricey for the amount you get.
I was very sceptical about trying this – “hair oil” just sounds heavy and greasy. But now? I’m mad at myself for putting off using this, as it is weightless and the results are fantastic…
Massage into damp hair and it’ll detangle it & provide anti-frizz properties, as well as doing a fantastic job of protecting your hair against heating styling from your dryer & straightening iron. My hair also seems thicker and looks shinier after use too.
You just have to be careful about combing it evenly throughout still-wet hair,to prevent your hair from becoming too weighed down. I’ve got no other complaints or had any other niggles. Pricy, but worth it IMHO.
This hair oil is a miracle worker! You only need to use a small amount to get a nice even coating on your hair, I’d recommend using less and building up to find the right type for your hair. Too much and you run the risk of looking greasy like I made the mistake of. My hair is left feeling incredibly soft and smooth, barely any frizz and looking very healthy! It smells lovely too! If you’re looking for something that will totally revitalise your hair then this oil is the one, I love it!
My wife is a big fan of this brand, So she was very keen to try this out. First impressions are very good, The oil comes well packaged and presented, In a stylish and refillable bottle. The oil has lots of natural oils, Which she applies to damp hair. Not a lot is required as a little goes a long way! It smells very pleasant and not overpowering. Once washed out it leaves hair soft and more tamed. My wife is very happy with this and definitely recommends to others.
Depending on hair length, using just 1-2 pumps on either dry or wet hair, will deeply nourish the hair leaving it silky smooth and significantly reducing frizz. Can also be used before styling as it will prrovide an extra layer of protection and add a beautiful shine to the hair.
Overall, this hair oil delivers on its promises of sealing split ends and providing long-lasting frizz control. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a versatile and effective hair treatment.
This comes in a beautiful bottle that screams expensive right from the word go. With this being a well known quality brand, I imagine you wouldn’t expect anything less.
Now I put the box in recycling before checking the instructions (silly mistake) so I went with what I’ve done with similar products- by putting this on dry hair (check out for yourself if it needs to be dry or damp hair). I left it on for about 30 minutes then washed it off. I then shampoo’d it. At first I thought this might leave my hair looking greasy but it absolutely did not.
Hair was lovely and glossy the next day, with a real shine to it. Smell is incredible- one of the best smelling oils I’ve used. Hair felt soft, smooth and silky with a nice healthy glow.
Now would I pay nearly 60 for this? Possibly not, however this is not a cheap high street brand. Equally a hair dresser I know advised this make is the best, so actually maybe I would?
Overall have been pleased and happy to recommend if you are happy/can pay that price.
75 ml refillable bottle of beautifying oil from Kerastase.
Bottle is easy to operate and to change refill bottle. Black pump is working fine.
This oil is great .Softening hair beautifully. Leaving it shiny with less frizz and manageable. Also it smells subtle but pleasant. If used right doesn’t leave hair greasy at all.
However, I am not convinced by the idea of refillable bottle which is a lot more expensive than it used to be. But in reality we got extra outside glass shell and glass refill bottle with plastic pump. How it can be more sustainable than previous single glassed bottle?
Great oil but bad refill idea.
This hair oil does smell very good. It isn’t heavy or greasy on the hair and definitely helps with shine and reduces frizz.
Whether its attributes warrant the 57.97 price tag is another matter, and rather depends on how much you’re willing to spend on a hair oil.
In its defence, on my short hair, it only really requires one pump, so it would last a long time, but it would be a little less eye-watering if the refill was cheaper, which I believe is only a little cheaper than the initial bottle.
So yeah I hang my head in shame I watched loads of hair colouring videos and bleach fails and I became one of the club 🙁
So I started with my best conditioner but this was even struggling to help. I had heard of this brand before but had never tried them, I am a 10 sort of hair lass so this seemed a bit $$ for me so was super happy to try.
I didn’t bleach my hair just to try this to see if it would help it was simply for me amazing timing!
Firstly I love that this is refillable which for hair oil is brilliant and a new one on me!
The scent is like a stunning perfume I wish I could afford to buy 🙂
My hair is short but was rather damaged so I did 2 pumps and very gently air dried my hair the first time I just felt it was slightly softer nothing really wow this first time or the second but by the 3rd use then it really had a wow effect my hair was silky for the first time in a month!!!!!! Finally I knew my hair could be saved!
I have used it everytime I wash my hair now still the two pumps and everytime my hair gets more and more healthy, I’ve been able to sort the colour out & since then this has done even more wonder the crispy fried ends are gone, the heaviness of the hair has gone, the dullness has gone, I now have healthy shimmers in my hair strands.It looks and feels fantastic! And smells amazing.
I cannot praise this enough.
Don’t get me wrong I still used good conditioners to help along the way but I know 100% this has done the hardest work on my hair and I am in love with this product.
I had my hairdresser around & she loved the scent also. She used on my hair & has is getting self some she saw what I had done to my hair she turned up expecting to remove a few inches of my fried hair but nope I had a small tidy up trim and some side layers that was all thanks to this oil she was surprised but she had been told from another client of hers it was good but seeing how good my hair condition was she agreed this has done the most good to my hair recovery & was getting a bottle now to use on her clients and herself.
Brilliant multi hair healing amazing smelling oil I adore this!!!!
Krastase is a pretty well-known brand so I definitely had high hopes for this one. The bottle arrived in a well-presented cardboard box, and is a re-usable glass bottle with the inner bottle being disposable (by twisting the middle out and replace it with a new one). The bottle is made with 30% recycled glass and you get 75ml of oil.
I did a quick bit of research and found that the price of the product has increased while the liquid content has decreased, so that’s a bit of a shame. In addition, the refills cost only 10 less than the original price of the bottle. I think that’s quite a hefty price for this and you do need to be absolutely sure about it before committing because just shy of 60 is A LOT.
There is no lid but a handy twist and lock. To use, simply untwist, dispense a few pumps onto your hands, rub together and run your fingers over/through your hair. It has a distinct smell, which actually is quite nice but I suspect that is very subjective. I’ve applied to both wet and dry hair – they both produce different results and as someone with fine hair, I find that it was lightweight and didn’t overly grease my hair at all.
It feels good on my hair, but nothing special. When applied on wet hair, it provided a sleeker result when hair drying and did reduce frizz a little but nothing to write home about. When I left it to dry naturally into my wave/curl pattern, it didn’t do anything spectacular for my curls but again just made it look a bit shiny. On dry hair, it added an outer shine but definitely didn’t reduce frizz, sadly.
Overall, it’s nice and most definitely a luxury product. I’m not sure I’d be keen to spend almost 50 per refill or even 60 for a new bottle (at time of review). You will get long-term use out of it because only a couple of pumps are needed, depending on your hair type. If you buy every year, maybe it’s worth it but, again, very subjective to your individual needs.
This product was sent to me to review, as part of Amazon Vine. Below is my own real-world experience of using it.
I was particularly drawn to it, since I have very long (hip length), thick and wavy hair, that can be very difficult to tame. It is especially frizzy, at the moment.
I have never used Krastase before, so I wasn’t really sure what to expect – I also don’t tend to use hair oils/serums, because every one I have tried tends to be too sticky, or heavy. I was very surprised that this one, wasn’t. Given my hair’s length, I opted to use more oil than recommended, but the results were pretty good – I definitely noticed more sleekness, and shine, though there was still some frizz, unfortunately. For clarity, I used it on wet (not soaking) hair, and blow-dried it straight.
In summary, it is a treat for the hair, with the bonus of the lovely scent it leaves behind. Recommended.
The hair oil arrives in a pleasantly presented cardboard box. The oil comes in a re-usable glass bottle. When you have finished the oil, you can simply twist the middle section out and replace it with a new one. The bottle itself is made with 30% recycled glass. In the bottle, you get 75ml of oil.
To use, twist the top of the pump and pump a few drops onto your hands. Rub your hands together and run your fingeres through your hair. It has a distinct smell of suncream, which we really liked. You are instantly transported to sunnier climes, as you apply the oil in your bathroom mirror on a cold and wet UK morning!
Once applied, it feels good on the hair. Possibly not ground breaking as a product, but it definitely does feel pleasant and makes a difference to dull and dry hair. It wasn’t clear, from the box, whether the oil should be applied to wet or dry hair. I checked the listing and it states that you can apply it to wet or dry.
