Overpowering Smell

Easy to Apply

Doesn't Cause Dullness

Good for Damaged Hair

Good for Dyed Hair

Improves Hair Texture

Not Sticky

Hydrating

I've used both the full-size product and the sample. While the sample container is fine, the full-size comes in an aluminum tube, which makes it inconvenient to use up completely. The photo shows the sample I received as a gratis!

Since it's a balm-type product, it doesn't drip, making it easy to control the amount you use! Applying it mainly to the ends of your hair helps tame frizz and improves split ends!

아르간 헤어 밤투오일

For best results, dry your hair about 80%, apply the oil, then gently finish drying on low heat. You'll enjoy a fragrant scent and soft hair all day long!

There's not much to complain about, but the oil left on my hands did feel a bit heavy.

This product is like magic! Even when my hair was at its worst - after 5 bleaches, 2 dyes, and 2 more bleaches, when I couldn't even run my fingers through it - just applying this overnight oil made it brushable again. And the scent? It's absolutely divine! Everyone around me kept asking about it, even my classmates were all curious!

I think it would be better if it came in a tube. Being a balm type, it's a bit tricky to control the amount at first.

It absorbs well, leaving my hair moisturized without feeling greasy. I love that! Plus, it's quite affordable.

Spread a small amount on your palms and massage it into your hair. It adds strength to the ends and gives your hair a beautiful shine!

The ingredients and packaging could be improved. It's unfortunate that two sensitizing ingredients are high up on the list. I haven't found a suitable alternative yet, and since I haven't experienced any side effects, I'm continuing to use it for now.

I stumbled upon this product at Olive Young and have been using it for years, going through multiple bottles. With my oily yet dry hair, a hair essence is absolutely essential. I've tried Loreal and other hair products, but this one is just perfect for me.

The water essence from the same brand had a soap-like scent, I think. If you see it at a drugstore, definitely give it a sniff! While it doesn't function as an essence, the fragrance is top-notch. This brand offers unbeatable value for money. As a student, I find it completely affordable. It's just fantastic!

There wasn't really anything disappointing, but if I had to pick one thing, it would be the packaging. Since it's a balm type, it can be a bit hard to squeeze out in winter. Also, the lid design makes it a bit tricky to close in one go.

I initially wrote a review for the water essence from the same brand, but I actually used this product first! I happened to pick it up at Olive Young or some drugstore, and let me tell you, the value for money is incredible. My whole family uses it, and we're already on our 4th bottle! First off, when you apply this product, it really brings out your perm curls. I naturally have slightly wavy hair that can easily look dry, but after showering and applying this, even when my hair is completely dry, it looks so shiny and moisturized. It's like my hair has become healthier! The scent is also amazing. I've heard that balm-type hair essences are better than water or oil types, and this was my first time trying a balm. I'm absolutely thrilled with it!

There's not much difference whether I apply it or not. Even when applied, it feels lackluster

The fragrance is lovely and the price is affordable... I really like the scent

After applying, it creates a slight hold that prevents me from achieving my desired style. It's disappointing that this product doesn't suit me (I don't need any hold at all). I didn't notice any improvement in my hair texture, so I threw it away after using half. I'm giving it 2 stars because of the low price, but it's just not right for me.

Affordable price during sales (around $3) and a pleasant baby powder scent

Contrary to the instructions, if you blow-dry and style your hair first, then apply just a pinky-sized amount, it maintains its hold until you're ready for bed.

I wish it came in a larger size. While I absolutely love the tube, I feel like I won't be able to enjoy it for long due to its current size.

I'm using this as a wax substitute rather than for moisturizing or conditioning, and I highly recommend it to men in their 30s who cherish every single strand of hair. Unlike traditional waxes that are hard to wash out no matter how thoroughly you shampoo, this bad boy rinses out completely even with a quick military-style shower!

Not just for this product, but for all oils and hair emulsions, I think towel drying is really important. It works best when you remove excess moisture from your hair and warm the product between your hands before applying.

It's hard to squeeze out... maybe because the weather's cold. I hope it won't melt when it gets warmer. I wish it didn't have fragrance in the ingredients, but thanks to that, it does smell nice...

After getting two perms and frying my hair, I've tried many products. Unlike other oils or conditioners that leave a sticky or slippery residue on my hands, the Night-to-Oil has less of that. It absorbs well too. When I apply it after a good towel dry, my hair texture improves and it doesn't get as greasy as with other oils. I focus on applying it to the damaged ends, avoiding the roots. The effectiveness really depends on how well you towel dry before application. When I use this and dry my hair, my husband sneaks up behind me, sniffing and saying how amazing it smells. I'm so glad I bought it when it was on sale!

The packaging is somewhat disappointing. It would be great if they could improve the container.

It's transparent and gel-like, but when applied, it doesn't feel sticky and seems to absorb well. If you apply it before drying your hair and let it set, it definitely leaves your skin feeling hydrated.

The downside of all hair products... applying with hands is a pain. But on the bright side, it washes off easily without any sticky residue!

After bleaching, nothing seemed to work on my hair... But this seems to hide the dryness well! I love that it's a balm, not an oil, so there's no stickiness after application. I got it for just $3 during an Olive Young sale - I think I need to stock up!

The tube is quite stiff, requiring a bit of effort to squeeze out the product. Especially when it's almost empty, it becomes difficult to press, sometimes leaving some product unused.

My hair was thin, brittle, and prone to tangling due to frequent bleaching and dyeing. After using this product, my hair has noticeably revived and become softer. It's not sticky at all, so it doesn't leave residue on my hands, making it very convenient to use.
