L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Hair Oil

I rarely pay much attention to my hair. Awful I know. I live off dry shampoo! But this product actually rates pretty highly for me. It's a dry oil so it doesn't leave my hair feeling or looking greasy but it gives it a lovely shine and like it says above, a bit of a pick me up! I've seen that BR have a tutorial on blowdrying your hair with this product so I will have to have a look!

I love this product. I have very dry ends so I was very interested to see if this product could help them. it certainly did. I applied before washing my hair and now I have beautiful shine and soft ends. even my husband said how great it looked. I often prefer to let my hair air dry - after using this hair oil and then letting it dry naturally it has a beautiful finish to it. I think I will be buying this for years to come. My only slight negative is the fact that the neck of the bottle is a little short for the pump so it can get a little messy.

I have tried a lot of hair oils, but I always come back to this. I use it daily and for the amount you get in a bottle the price is really decent. Doesn't make my hair greasy like the garnier miraculous oil and its great on its own or with other products. Been using this for over a year now and a bottle lasts me about 2 months. My favourite way to use this is applying it to slightly damp hair over night. I wake up with super soft hair and very few tangles. Reccomended it to a bunch of people.

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!

Previously put off hair oils believing they left my hair extremely oily, my mum gave my first bottle of L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Hair Oil which comes in absolutely beautiful gold packaging. I have long, thick, wavy hair which is very prone to fizziness and dispense around 3-4 pumps on the palm of my hand and smooth the thick oil through clean, dry hair, focusing on the lengths. The L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Hair Oil tames the frizz and leaves my hair soft but without it looking greasy. This is honestly the best smelling hair oil I've tried and the smell lingers right up until my next hair wash.

I received this product a few days ago and so far it has already made a noticeable difference to my hair with shine and silkiness. I apply this product after a shower and it is amazing to run through and you can feel it doing its job when you apply it. This is perfect for those who have curly hair. I have tried this product also when I straightened my hair of which made my hair shiny and silky as the bottle suggests for styling. You will need to use sparingly for those who have straight or thin hair as I also had a friend try my product (she who has thinnish wavy-straight hair) and she finds it a bit oily for her type of hair leaving it looking a little noticeably oily.

Maybe my hair is just too damaged, it does not bring the best results in my hair but still the smell is nice. When i first apply it, it gives it shine but my hair just drinks it up after a while and it goes back to its frizzy... damaged look. Still better than other oil products I have used but im still looking around to find what best works on my hair

Gorgeous glass bottle, product has the most amazing smell the best smelling oil treatment I have come across its so nice it makes you want to use it.I used it after washing and on dry hair to and it left my hair with a lovely shine and also nice and soft plus the gorgeous smell.The texture is nice not to runny a couple of pumps on your Palm run hands together then lightly run hands through hair and work very gently into ends and walar your done gorgeous hair.I do wish the bottle was bigger would be the only thing because it's so lovely and light not greasy.I use daily for shiny gorgeous hair.

Really love this product, its great for curly frizzy hair like I have. It really helps tame the curls, stops if from looking too bouffant, especially after blow drying my hair, it can look a bit wild.

I also use this in between washes to put the bounce back into my curl.

I have used a lot of hair serums and find this is one of the best out there, I look out for it regularly when its on offer at the shops and stock up on it.

Has a lovely scent but I am not overly keen on it I dont know if it is because my hair is quite damaged or not but I found it would absorb into my dry hair so quick without 'treating' it. I apply from mid length to ends on damp air then again after straightening
