What the gurus are saying
This essence earns praise for smoothing frizz and nourishing without weighing hair down, especially for coarse or textured hair, though the silicone content means it works best applied to ends rather than roots. The formula feels elegant and has a subtle earthy scent. However, experts split on whether the results justify the hype: while one found it genuinely transformative for daily conditioning, another felt the softness washes out once hair dries, making the thick, difficult-to-squeeze tube format feel like extra effort for temporary benefits.
