   I really like this light weight serum for my fine/ wavy hair. It’s more liquidy in texture than some of the thicker serums out there. It’s good for my hair type, because I find that I can use just a little, rubbed between my palms and lightly worked through dry hair, and my hair absorbs it without feeling coated or weighed down. Adds shine and smooths frizz without making hair flat.

   The scent is “crushed leaves, freesia & water hyacinth” (from the website). This haircare line was created to smell similar to the now discontinued “Body By Victoria, The Fragrance”. It’s a gorgeous floral scent. I also have the shampoo, conditioner, and weightless oil. The weightless oil is too heavy for my hair no matter how little I use, but that one I use on my arms for the scent. I’m always on the lookout for sales, I’m afraid they will discontinue this some day, it’s been repackaged, and some of the products have been discounted before, then brought back.

   Regular price for this serum is $14, I bought it for $10 on sale.

   I have been using this for years. I love the femme, floral scent. It has a silken consistency of course, and I use it only on my ends as it will make my hair greasy-looking if I use it throughout all of my hair. It used to be better packaged, in a glass bottle. Guess VS needed to increase profits, because it is now in a plastic bottle. Still features a pump to expel the product. I have gotten many compliments throughout the years and the VS So Sexy hair care products, this serum included, has becom something of my signature hair scent.

   It tames flyaways well, smooths and adds tons of sheen, and if used sparingly doesn’t weigh down hair. I rub the excess on my elbows and collarbone after applying to my hair- it smells THAT delicious. Overall, if you’re in the market for a shine serum, check out this jewel, it’s not very expensive, and does the job. I have and will repurchase, though it lasts forever for me.

   Been using this since it came out.

   I love how it smells and just one pump is pretty much all I need to use on my hair,mainly on my ends.

   After straightening I sometimes get flyaways and this works great to fix them and the added shine this gives my hair is great!

   The scent of this is so wonderful and not over powering at all.

   I really love this. It leaves your hair silky smooth and shiny with and even without a blowdry. The smell is awesome it seems potent at first but then gives a fresh scent when your hair dries. I would definitely repurchase.

   Great Product!! The smell is gorgeous! (Kinda reminds me of VS’s Rapture perfume.) I remember this coming in a larger glass bottle but was so sad when I dropped it and it broke. I remembered how well this worked on my baby fine hair in the winter and just picked up a bottle again. Fell right back in love with this product. Does wonders on my hair when I straighten it. A definite re-purchase in the future!!

   Great product! I just used on my friend who has a major problem with flyaways, and it immediately made her hair shiny and smooth. Make sure to use sparingly, as with all serums can be greasy. I like to use when my hair is damp, because it spreads more evenly, but you can also use dry for stubborn spots.

   Love this serum, it leaves my hair so soft and shiny. The scent is great too. I usually wear it when I straighten my hair and it leaves it silky smooth! I also use it when my hair is crazy and frizzy, it helps a lot and I definitely see some shine adding to it.

   I was less than thrilled with this serum. Normally, I stick to drugstore (or Sally’s) hair care products, but I thought it’d be nice to treat myself to something new, but salon brands aren’t really in my budget. Since VS So Sexy line is on sale 3/$24, I figured it’d be a perfect inbetween. I picked up the Balancing shampoo and Nourishing conditioner along with this serum. My hair is bra-strap length, fine (but there’s a lot of it), layered, and colored. I blow dry it straight 3-4 days a week, so I need a light serum that will help protect my hair from damage. I also like a product that can help control how poofy and frizzy my hair gets when I let it air dry. The first day I used this, I wasn’t impressed. I applied two pumps to my hair while it was still damp, and let it dry overnight. In the morning, my hair was just as poofy and frizzy as if I never put anything in it. I did notice, however, that my color looked a little brighter and my hair was a little more shiny, so I gave it a lippie for that. I also thought the scent was nice, not as strong and overpowering as the shampoo/conditioner, but just right. I tried it again the next day before blow drying my hair, and once again, wasn’t impressed. My hair was pretty smooth, and a little more shiny, but the results were average at best. This did nothing to control frizz or flyaways. This is an average product in fancy packaging. I’ve used a number of d/s serums that work better than this one, for the same price or less.

   I’m nuts about this product and have gone through many many bottles since I’ve been using this product ever since it was introduced. It does a great job in softening my hair without making it feel greasy and I can easily comb my hair after a shower (my hair is very prone to tangles). I don’t have to use very much of this product; a little goes a long way. I only use it on my ends. I only wish the bottle was made of plastic instead of glass since I’m afraid of breaking it by accident.

    This smells amazing! I always get compliments on how I smell when I put this in my hair. It makes your hair shiny for only a couple of hours, and it doesn’t really control frizz and flyaways (but the product doesn’t claim that it controls frizz, so…). Overall an average product that makes your hair smell AMAZING.
