I visited my salon two weeks back for getting a hair
massage done. Instead, I chose to get a new haircut done but in the end,
because of blah and blah reason, I simply walked out with this hair oil in my
hand. The price tag just made this irresistible! Also, I mostly use traditional
oils only but once in a while, I do like to try something fancy!

My
experience with this new L’oreal Hair Spa Oil:
I have used this hair oil for around 6-7 times and
since this is just a fancy oil with 68% mineral oil, I feel the usage is quite
sufficient to review this. The bottle says that this can also be used as a
leave in treatment. I have very dry hair and an oily scalp. The packaging is
very much travel friendly since it’s a plastic bottle and the cap shuts tightly
and securely after every use. The texture is quite light weight. It almost has
a watery consistency. Although if I apply this in large amounts covering my
scalp and each bit of hair, it does gets greasy because after all, hair oil is
hair oil! The smell is light and not at all over powering. In fact, I can sniff
it only when I bring the bottle close to my nose. This oil contains a large
portion of mineral oil. Mineral oil in hair care is used only to retain hair
moisture, getting it detangled and for adding shine. So, if you are expecting
miracles to happen from this oil, you may skip it. Since the texture of the oil
is quite light weight, I like it a lot for using as a serum on my damp hair. My
hair usually gets more frizzy and drier when I step outside, but with this, my hair
retains their softness even when I step out. I’m so happy about this. It does
not even weigh my hair down. You only need to figure out the quantity needed to
use this as a serum over your dry hair otherwise they can become limp. Although
when I used this as a shampoo, I didn’t see any shine or extra softness coming
out of it. And, I needed the usual 2 rinses of shampoo to get rid of all of the
oil.

Pros:
-
The travel friendly packaging.
-
Makes a great serum for dry-very dry
hair.
-
Adds softness to hair when used as a
serum.
-
Light weight texture.
-
Controls frizz nicely.
-
Doesn’t makes hair limp if used in small
and right quantity.
-
It gets rinsed out easily and doesn’t
leave any oily residue afterwards.
Cons:
-
Not a deep nourishment for dry hair.
-
Not really affordable pricing for the
decent quality. The other L’oreal Serum which costs Rs.120 does the same job..Just
informing!
Summary:
This L’oreal Professional Hair Spa Oil would be best
for people with very dry, coarse hair when used a serum because even though it
has a light weight consistency, it adds softness to the hair and controls frizz
nicely. As a hair oil, it’s a thumbs down for me.
Price: Rs.250
Quantity: 100ml
VCB Rating: 3.25/5

You
see the blue cloth in the background? It’s my sweater that’s now turn off from
the shoulders. And, I can’t even tell you how many times people’s things like
their watch, necklace, rings, their bag buckles have got entangled in my
sweater. In fact, on my recent outing, my friend pointed out that my sweater is
torn. I thought he’s just making fun of the sweater style, as
guys always make! Only when I came back home and saw this in the mirror, I was
like o_O
