Oil & Serum
Do you have dry ends, frizz or hair that needs a little extra care? With hair oil and hair serum you give your lengths targeted care without changing your entire routine. Discover which version suits your hair and choose more easily from the range.
What is the difference between hair oil and hair serum?
You use both hair oil and hair serum to make your hair feel softer, smoother and well cared for, but they have different purposes. An oil mainly focuses on nourishment and shine. A serum is more often meant to smooth the hair, reduce frizz or protect the lengths during your routine.
In the range you will also find products that combine both properties. Think of oil-in-serums and nourishing elixirs. This way, you don’t always have to strictly choose between oil or serum.
Look mainly at what your hair needs at that moment. Hair oil and hair serum focus on care when dryness is the issue, while with frizz or styling you pay more attention to smoothness and control.
Which hair oil or hair serum suits your hair and scalp?
The best choice depends on your hair type and the concerns you face. Dry lengths require something different than fine hair or a scalp that needs extra attention. Use this short guide:
-
Dry or damaged hair: choose a nourishing oil or a richer serum for the lengths and ends.
-
Fine hair: go for a light formula and start with a small amount.
-
Frizzy hair: a smoothing hair serum helps keep loose hairs better controlled.
-
Curls and waves: pick care that keeps your lengths supple without weighing down your curl.
-
Coloured or blonde hair: look for a serum or oil that fits your care routine for treated hair.
-
Scalp: use hair oil and hair serum only when the product is specifically designed for it.
Is hair serum good for your hair and what does it do exactly?
A hair serum can be a great addition if your hair frizzes quickly, feels dry or lacks smoothness after styling. You mainly apply it to the lengths and ends. The purpose differs per formula, so choose a serum that matches your hair concern.
With hair oil and hair serum, the amount is about control. Start small and only add more if your hair needs it. This is especially important for fine or quickly weighed-down hair.
A serum Spray spreads differently than a concentrated serum from a pump bottle. In the collection you will also find lighter versions and products that combine oil and serum.
Specialist tip: first spread your serum well over both palms before running it through your lengths. This prevents the product from piling up in one heavy spot. Start at the ends and work upwards, but avoid the roots unless the product is meant for that.
Do you use hair oil and hair serum on wet or dry hair?
You can use hair oil and hair serum on damp or dry hair depending on the formula. On towel-dried hair you can easily spread the product through the lengths. On dry hair use a small amount as a finishing touch for shine, softer ends or less frizz.
If you apply it after washing, first remove most of the water from your hair. Then spread a small amount over the lengths and ends. This way you see better how much product you really need.
Less is often more on dry hair. Rub one or a few drops between your hands before distributing gently.
When do you choose extra hair or scalp care besides oil or serum?
Oil and serum mainly care for a specific part of your routine. If you also need cleansing or extra scalp care, another product category may suit you better. For that reason, this page also offers six additional collections besides hair oil and hair serum, including scalp scrub.
A scalp scrub serves a different purpose than oil or serum. It focuses on the scalp and cleansing, whereas classic hair oil or hair serum usually go on the lengths and ends.
See the extra collections as supplements, not replacements for your oil or serum. Start with your main hair concern. If your goal is mainly caring for dry ends, taming frizz or making your lengths smoother, hair oil and hair serum remain the natural place to start.
