Hydrating ingredients: Look for glycerin, hyaluronic acid, aloe vera or panthenol, which can help attract and retain moisture. Silicones: Ingredients such as dimethicone or amodimethicone can coat the hair shaft, reduce friction, add slip and help control frizz. Silicones aren’t necessarily a bad thing in a serum.

I use L’Oréal Professionnel Liss Unlimited Leave-In Hair Serum when I want smoother, more manageable hair without weighing it down. It helps tame frizz, improve softness and give my hair a polished finish. The lightweight texture spreads easily through my lengths and leaves my hair looking sleek and glossy. It is a useful addition to my routine when humidity makes my hair feel unruly. I use Love Beauty And Planet &Done Frizz Control Hair Serum when I want to manage frizz and give my hair a smoother appearance. I like using a small amount on damp hair before styling or on dry hair to tame flyaways. The serum helps my strands feel softer and look more polished without complicating my routine. It is particularly useful on humid days when my hair tends to become unruly. I find it a convenient everyday styling step for achieving smoother, more manageable-looking hair.
Because it makes my strands feel easier to handle, i especially like using it before styling.
