Dove Intensive Repair Amino Serum for Damaged Hair with Bio-Protein Care Technology 3.3 oz

This is, without a doubt the best hair oil I've ever used. Let me tell you why:FIRSTLYAfter doing an extensive research about my condition called seborrheic dermatitis, I found out I shouldn't be using any hair products that contain common hair oils like: coconut, olive, avocado, castor, jojoba, etc.I had been using Olaplex bonding oil along with another hair oil from Sally's for years, but I had to stop using them because they both contain some of those oils I mentioned.I started looking on Amazon for hair oils / hair oil serums without any of those oils and I almost gave up until I found this Dove serum. To my surprise, this only contains Apricot Oil, which is perfect for my condition, and I ordered it right away.Today, it's been 2 months since I started using this oil serum and so far, it hasn't trigger my seborrheic dermatitis' symptoms!SECONDLYThis oil serum smells incredibly good!It's easy to apply. The consistency is not thick like most silicone-based hair oils but it's definitely not as runny as Olaplex Bonding Oil! I personally find it perfect.It doesn't leave my hair greasy. It feels very lightweight on the hair and gives me the shine of my dreams (look at my photos, which, by the way, are not retouched and I do want to say that I have the same balayage from 7 months ago on ALL photos! The photos with the pink and black shirts are after I applied this Dove oil serum. On the other photo I don't have products on. As you can see, the difference is impressive!).It controls my frizz. Honestly, I have received 10 out of the 10 benefits they advertise!THIRDLYI've used this serum with both wet and dry hair and it works great both ways for me.When I use it on dry hair I like to divide my hair in half and apply 2 pumps on each one.When I use it on wet hair I like to do 3 pumps on each one because I mainly use it as a heat protector before hair drying it.If I decide to air dry it, then I do 2 pumps on each.But I have been doing an intensive repair treatment to my hair once a week for the past two months and it has given me great results so I would like to share it with you all:- I thoroughly wash and rinse my hair twice.- I squeeze it very gently but making sure there's no excess water (or you're most likely to waste all products!) and divide my hair in half.- Then I put some of my Olaplex hair mask; quarter size (any intensive repair mask should work just fine) on the palm of my hand, then I add 3 pumps of this Dove serum and lastly, I add 3 pumps of my leave-in conditioner. I rub my hands and apply it to one half from middle to ends. I repeat this step to the other half of my hair.- After applied, I grab my hair brush (hopefully you use one that doesn't break your hair; I personally use the "Tangle Teezer") and start detangling my hair starting from ends towards the top to avoid breakage.- Leave on for at least 5 minutes, 10 minutes for more intense repair and hydration!- Rinse well- Lastly apply conditioner as usual (yes, conditioner goes after your hair mask!)- Rinse and enjoy the most soft, hydrated hair of your life! you're welcome.LASTLYI'm very happy about my results with this oil serum. It is truly an amazing product for an incredibly affordable price!Do not be like "a little goes a long way" on this one, especially if you have color treated hair like I do! Trust me, your hair NEEDS this serum and if you use a little, you're not going to achieve the results you want.You want to apply it morning and night, do the intensive repair treatment and you're going to notice significant changes in a short amount of time.I'm forever sold on this product. Totally worth the money!*Last tip:Before going to bed, detangle, apply the serum, divide the hair in half and do one braid on each side. This will prevent friction during the night and you're going to wake up with almost the same beautiful waves I'm showing on my photos.

At 50, im pretty much in the height of menopause and have noticed a major increase in hair loss and breakage. I was literally feeling defeated by the time I got out of the shower each morning. The one thing I was noticing was how dry my hair was, despite leave in conditioners. I set out on 1 more search session and came across this Dove product. I've been using this daily for a week now on my very thick hair and can definitely say there is an improvement. Yes, it smells amazing but that's not going to improve my hair health, lol. I can put this on roots to ends and there is absolutely no oily residue! My hair is softer and much more hydrated. The amount of daily breakage is decreasing by at least half. This is definitely a keeper and will be a permanent part of my daily routine.

Makes hair so soft and shiny! Smells great as well. Product last a while since it doesnt take much!

This smells great, doesn't make your hair greasy. Which is very important to me. Makes my hair incredibly soct

Honestly, I really liked it. My hair is damaged from straightening and coloring, and since I started using this treatment from Dove, it feels softer and less brittle.I use it after washing my hair, apply a bit to the ends, and leave it in. It’s not heavy or greasy—it absorbs really well. It smells nice, like clean hair, and the best part is that my hair doesn’t break as much when I brush it.After a few weeks, I noticed less frizz and my hair feels easier to manage. It’s not a miracle overnight, but you can definitely see the difference. If your hair is damaged, I think it’s worth trying.

This did indeed help with my frizz control and left my hair very soft without leaving it greasy. Worth every penny for the nice aroma and shine that I was left with.

Good product but the bottle and pump are hard to use.
