Troubleshooting

My hair feels greasy or heavy after application.

You might be using too much product for your hair type, or applying it too close to the roots. Start with a smaller amount (e.g., half a pump) and focus application on the mid-lengths and ends. For very fine hair, apply sparingly and blot any excess with a clean towel.

I'm not seeing the shine or softness promised.

Ensure consistent application. For best results, apply to damp hair before blow-drying and then a small amount to dry hair as a finishing touch. Make sure the product is evenly distributed. Hair porosity can also affect absorption; some hair types may require slightly more or less product.

My frizz isn't completely controlled.

For stubborn frizz, ensure you are applying the oil to the areas most prone to frizz. You can also use it as a 'touch-up' throughout the day, applying a single drop to frizzy sections. Humidity levels can also impact frizz control, so consider combining with other anti-frizz styling products if needed in extreme conditions.
