The L’Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil Coconut hair oil is a good basic styling oil which will last for ages.
This hair oil is pretty light compared to others that I have used in the past. There is only a slight coconut scent - which is lovely. It is good for adding shine and taming fly-aways when finishing off a hairstyle.
I would have loved it more if it was also a heat protectant but that would cost a lot more.
I really enjoyed this product, although at first I certainly applied too much to my hair and ended up with some over oiled bits! The smell is awesome - feels tropical and makes me wish I was in a slightly more tropical location as well. The oil itself was a lot runnier and lighter than I had expected, hence putting too much in the first time. Once I got the hang of it I put a few drops in my palms, rubbed them together and then ran my hands through my hair (ends to roots, whilst damp). I then brushed it through and allowed to dry normally - it gave enough shine and moisture to stop frizzies and flyaways, but wasn't too heavy. The product can be used on dry hair as well and I would definitely make use of it to freshen up my hair during styling on the inbetween hair washing days. Really nice product and one I'll keep using, especially given it's quite an affordable product and should last a long time.
Tips: A little goes a long way and it's easy to over-do.
