This product is the reason I'm writing a review on Hwahae. When I apply only this, I get red rashes (or blemishes) on the skin where my oiled hair touches. Since this has never happened before, I'm curious if anyone else has experienced something similar. For context, I've used Moroccan oil for 8 years and recently started looking for alternatives as the scent seemed off. I've also enjoyed using Mise-en-Scene, L'Oreal, and Silk Therapy. It's truly only this oil... At first, I didn't realize, but looking back, these symptoms only appear on days I use the Kerastase oil. I wonder what could be causing this...

I have long hair, but applying just 2-3 pumps improves the texture and smells great. While you might feel the volume is small for the price, you can achieve the same moisturizing effect as using 5-6 pumps of other oils. It really works hard to hydrate your hair!

The only solution is to apply it frequently...

It's just an average hair essence without any standout features. Your hair becomes dry again after a while.

Though it's not the full-size product, it has a pleasant scent and gives your hair a nice shine when applied.

While I love the product and its packaging, the price point is a bit high, which is disappointing.

This is truly a game-changer! I've tried various hair oils, but this one is the absolute best! The difference in my hair texture is remarkable! The feel when I touch my hair is completely different! There's no stickiness or clumping at all. It's as if each strand is coated, creating healthier-looking hair. My hair feels so much stronger now! I used to wonder why hair oils were so expensive, but now I understand - there's a good reason. This hair oil is definitely worth every penny. Next time I'm at the duty-free shop, I'll be stocking up for sure!

Make sure to apply oil in winter. If your hair isn't in great condition, I apply it both before and after drying. When my hair's normal, I just use it after drying.

The price... Oh my, looking at the pre-renewal container, it was 100ml, but the renewed product I bought is only 75ml. While I'm very satisfied with the product, I'm not sure if I'll stick with it because it's so expensive.

It seems the same product has had its packaging renewed. I happened to test it at an Olive Young store and instantly fell in love with the oil's texture as it glided across my palm. The fragrance reminds me of a familiar cosmetic scent. It applies incredibly lightly, making it easy to use without feeling heavy or greasy. I previously used Moroccan Oil Original and was planning to repurchase it, but I was so tempted by this that I bought it instead. I'm absolutely satisfied with its performance! Personally, I use it as part of my routine: no-wash treatment before drying, then this oil after. It's just perfect!

Kerastase itself is quite expensive, which is unfortunate. However, it's worth purchasing during Sephora sales.

Kerastase itself is overall quite effective and has a nice fragrance! Even though my hair is damaged, when I apply this, my hair definitely becomes calmer.

Personally, I'm not a big fan of artificial fragrances and they can be quite expensive.

Although it's an oil, it feels lightweight and doesn't weigh down my hair. My hair doesn't get tangled, and it seems like less hair is falling out, which makes me feel better. The condition of my hair also looks improved, so I'm considering repurchasing it.

This is best used just on the ends of the hair after using a no-rinse treatment, as a finishing touch.

Since it's for severely damaged hair, it doesn't really feel like it's providing a lot of nourishment, so it should be used in conjunction with other products.

It has a nice, moderate thickness that doesn't weigh down the hair too heavily and retains just the right amount of moisture in the hair. You don't even need to adjust the amount used, as it doesn't make the hair feel greasy.

The high price is the biggest downside. That's why it's difficult to give it a full five-star rating.

It's great that it's applied generously without becoming greasy, and it finishes off lightly and calmly.

The fragrance was a bit different from what I had expected, which was a bit disappointing.
The application doesn't feel as refreshing and has a slightly heavier feel.

I purchased the Kérastase products because I liked the fragrance.
Applying them before and after drying my hair can prevent dryness.

The oil seems to not agree with my skin, as the areas where the oiled hair touches my neck and back are itchy

The hair feels softer and overall more calm
There is much less tangling when brushing

I don't have any special tips, but I apply it before blow-drying my hair, and then apply it once more halfway through drying to split the amount into two applications.

The downside is,
- The coconut scent is way too strong ㅠㅠ This is why I don't apply it daily even though the oil is good!! If you really want a strong scent, I don't recommend this ㅠㅠ
- The price... is not very affordable. And it's not a huge volume either ㅠㅠ

I have extremely damaged hair from perms and the like.
The good points are:
- My hair doesn't get frizzy
- It doesn't get too slippery
- My hair texture improves and doesn't tangle as much👍👍

The hair oil is doing all its intended roles!!

The price is a bit high, and the scent is similar to coconut oil, so if you're looking for a floral or shampoo-like fragrance, I wouldn't recommend this.

My hair was quite dry, but after using this, I felt like it improved a lot! I really liked it.
