Dove Advanced Hair Series Serum-In-Oil, Regenerative Nourishment 1.69 oz

Dove Regenerative Nourishment Serum-in-Oil didnt look much different than other oil based styling products Ive tried before to tame my thick, curly, color-treated, fuzzy locks, however it worked better than the others. My hair is not overly damaged (the consumers that this product is ideally made for), but color treating my grays and flat ironing on a daily basis have taken their toll. My hair isnt as shiny or smooth as I would like it to be, however after using this product Im encouraged that it certainly could be in the future. MY 2-DAY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PRODUCT: The first time I used the product I put it on my hair after my shower. I put (3) pumps of the Dove product into my hands; rubbing them together and then evenly distributing the product throughout my hair - avoiding the roots. I let my hair air dry without using any styling appliances (hairdryer, curling iron, etc...) and was very happy with the results. My hair did not look like Id stuck my finger in a light socket and there was a nice shine to my hair. It also didnt appear oily which is always my concern with these sorts of products. The second day I applied the product the same way and blew my hair dry, then used a flat iron to tame my curls. The results were very good. My hair felt soft and smooth, moved well and again, I noted a shininess without an oily texture to my hair. Later the second day I applied one pump of the Regenerative Nourishment into my hands (rubbing them to distribute the product) and then gently went through my hair; again avoiding the roots. I wasnt as happy with applying this product to dry hair as it did look a touch oily to me, but this was expected and thus not enough reason for me to remove a star from my review. CONCLUSION - ILL KEEP USING IT: According to the box this product is a ...specific daily program for damaged, over-processed hair, making it smoother and stronger against breakage - as if damage never happened. Shiny and manageable are the goals, and I would agree that this product does it well. Im always looking for a combination of products that produces salon quality results. The way your hair feels right after your stylist does it and you leave the salon. This product worked well enough on my hair to make me think that I need to check out the other products in the Dove Regenerative Nourishment line, and perhaps in the future I can truly obtain hair happiness once more!

performs well

Excessively oily :/

I have been using this for a couple months now. When I bought it i had split ends and a lot of damaged ends, it has certainly helped that, and as long a you do not apply it close to your roots, it does not make your hair greasy at all which was my biggest concern.

Very nice hair oil but I recommend knowing your hair before you pump the recommended 3-4 pumps full of oil and spread it through your hair. I have fine, thin shoulder-length hair and that much would leave me looking greasy. One pump is all I need to have shiny healthy looking hair. This has a pretty strong floral fragrance which hinders me from leaving a five star review. I would like it much better if it was mildly scented. Easy to work though the hair and lovely results.

Product is ok

This serum in oil really fights the frizzies. I have extremely curly hair and this tames the frizz even on humid days. Be sure to only use a dab on dry hair, though, otherwise your hair may look a little oily. The serum/oil has a nice subtle scent that is not overpowering. It contains coconut oil, palm oil sweet almond oil and sunflower seed oil to nourish your hair, but the main oil ingredient is mineral oil. Plus, it also contains dimethyconol. Id hoped to see all natural ingredients on the label, instead of chemicals.

This serum did the job. It makes hair soft and manageable. Good for colored hair. Brings life to hair! Thank you.

Smells good - bought this because I like the conditioner. Its so divine. Smells like grapefruits and fragrenaces. This serum is also heavily fragrances with the same scent. The size is travel friendly and the bottle is plastic. No complaints. I also like LOréal extraordinary hair serum oil thing.

Its oily so a little goes a long way! It does produce a nice silkily shine (especially the day after you washed your hair) but apply only to hair not scalp and one tiny pump does my entire head of shoulder length frizzy hair.
