L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Hair Oil

Since I use this product the only thing I feel is my hair is a little more smooth. I use it follow the instruction in the bottle. But I prefer use it before I straight my hair because it protect my hair of heat damage.

Purchased by mistake! So I thort I'd give it a go anyway, new is always good, so it's a good product I use the shampoos and conditioners, it's light and easy to put through hair, the shin isn't over the top, I like to have a little de tangle from my oils and this doesn't do that for me my hair has been colored a lot and damaged so I need that and this has failed that, everything else is great with i have nice soft hair, but I can think of better products and cheaper then this one I feel it is quite pricy.

this isnt my fave, but then again, no oil type product is really as i dont like the greasy-ness it leaves my hair feeling. This doesnt seem overly greasy as some other serums have done but i dislike the smell and after a while, i feel it is almost a man's scent rather than feminine. if your wanting something cheap and reasonable i would go for this otherwise i am not overly fussed.

I had a farmers voucher and desperately needed something for my hair.

Usually I get the Garnier serum but decided to spend a little bit more on something.

I really liked the glass bottle because it made the product look expensive and it was clear so you could see what the product looked like.

It looked like a rich golden honey colour which attracted me because for some reason it just looked nourishing.

I purchased it for about $22 I think which I think is a bit expensive for what it is really. Ive used better oils that are alot cheaper.

The smell was pretty average and I liked the consistency of the product as it didn't feel to oily or thick for me.

My hair is very porous so it soaked all the product up immediately and it did an okay job of making my hair look shiny and smooth.

I probaly wouldn't rush out to buy this oil again but my hair did feel a bit more frizz free with it in.

I bought this whilst travelling to combat a bout of fantastic frizz. I have fine, curly hair and gently rubbing a bit of product into the ends of freshly washed hair did manage to combat some of my feisty frizzy bits. A very good product (but still not quite as good as the very well known hair oil on the market). ;)

If I'm perfectly honest, this product isn't my favourite simply because it leaves my hair feeling quite brittle when dry. It feels and smells nice when applying it onto damp hair but it leaves my hair ends looking frazzled and unhealthy once my hair dries. I think that simple pure argan oil is the way to go when it comes to hair oils. However, the scent of this product is nice and the price is very reasonable, so for those reasons I believe it deserves a few stars.

so...like the title says, I really do love the smell of this product, but I have to use it super super sparingly or it leaves my hair looking lank and greasy. I have tried just putting it on my ends, which are a bit more damaged but even then they look a bit gross. On the plus side, this means it has lasted me a loooong time! The best way I have found to use it for my hair is to rub it between my palms, and lightly swipe over flyaways around my face. I then run my hands through my hair starting from underneath, so the bottom is silky and smells great without the top layers looking greasy.

I was really excited to trial this product, as I have long and quite fine hair that gets really dry and split at the ends, especially in summer! I haven't really used many hair oil treatments before - I usually stick to leave in hair masks/conditioning treatments - so this is kind of a first for me.

I had pretty high expectations for this product because I've heard lots of rave reviews about hair oil treatments lately, and I must say that I was a little disappointed over all with this one.

The positives: it smells really nice and the scent isn't too overwhelming - just subtle which is nice! It also isn't too oily - it's much drier on my hands after using than I thought it would be so the lack of an oily residue after using it is good too.

The not-so-positives: it initially feels like it's really moisturising and that's great, but I find that by the end of the day my hair is back to feeling dry and I don't feel like it's really made much of a difference. After using it for several days straight, too, I'm not really noticing much of a difference to the overall look, feel or condition of my hair and I did expect to by now. In contrast, I've been using a leave in hair mask lately that I've been using in the same way, and that leaves my hair feeling really soft and nice all day!

This product says that there's three ways to use it: before washing your hair, before styling and after styling. I only really have time in my usual routine for before-styling hair treatments (who has time for all 3!) so this is how I used it - I'm interested to see if any of the other reviewers used it in a different way and saw different results!
