### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Greattt serum for damaged hair
*by M***Y on 1 September 2025*

It is a really good serum, works well as it improved the texture of my hair. The smell is bit weird but I reckon its due to the formula. Great value for money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Smells weird but good effect on hair
*by J***N on 18 August 2024*

Smells a little odd, but did something good to my hair.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does what it says
*by S***N on 6 May 2024*

Due to menopause my hair was thinning, course, and I had some bald patches. I bought this and the shampoo and my hair is growing back in, its silky smooth again too and I will continue to buy from this range. I suppose it is on the pricey side for a serum but well worth the money to have my hair looking nice again.
