The benefits of hair serum: 6 reasons why you shouldn’t live without it

Trends come and go, but your relationship with hair serum is one that should be built to last. With its adoration for your hair, it surely is a keeper! But why? What makes hair serum such an essential product for your locks and why are hair experts so passionate about this product?

In this article, we’ll delve into what hair serum is and why you shouldn’t live without it. We’ll discuss some of the benefits of hair serum and then, best of all, we’ll direct you to some of our very own award-winning healthy hair serums – we say healthy because they are loaded with the best natural, nourishing, and vegan-friendly ingredients available!

Starting with the basics – what does a hair serum do?

What is a hair serum?

Hair serum is a treatment that uses safe yet powerful properties to protect and smoothen hair. Most hair serums are formulated to create a barrier between the hair fibre and your environment, protecting your locks from the damaging effects of heat, humidity, and pollutants. However, many professional hair serums include added ingredients that boast more advantages.

For example, they can add shine to your tresses without weighing them down or making them look oily, they can smoothen out hair so that there’s no need for the intervention of hot styling tools, and they can also help to detangle unruly hair – more on all these juicy benefits below!

Difference between serum and hair oils

Hair serum and hair oil may look and feel similar, but they are not the same. Serum is typically designed as a pre-styling aid to cover and protect the hair shaft, leaving it soft and smooth with a healthy shine.. We’re proud to point out however that our RF serums actually go one step further. Beyond adding a protective styling barrier to the hair, our serums use ingredients such as hyaluronic acid (among others) to actually penetrate the hair fibre too – making hair healthier while you style!

Oils, on the other hand, are typically hair treatments that have been specifically designed to penetrate past the hair cuticles to nourish, repair, and sometimes protect your locks (depending on the ingredients).

An added benefit of RF styling and treatment oils is that they can be applied at the pre-styling stage, on damp hair, as well as a finishing touch on dry hair. Serums and oils – we give you the best of both!

Benefits of Hair Serum:

We’ve had a good chat about what hair serum is and we’ve touched on what all the fuss is about – but let’s continue to explore hair serum uses and the benefits – just in case you need more persuading!

Straightening Serum Velluto Rossano Ferretti Parma

1. Tame frizz and flyaways

Silicones (and the natural ingredients found in our RF hair serums) are very smart. Blended into a powerful formula, these can add weight to your hair to tame frizz and flyaways into position, helping you to attain that smoother “do.” *A professional hair serum will smoothen your locks without causing them to go limp under the weight.

2. Add shine

Besides their ability to manage frizz and flyaways, hair serums can also be used to boost your hair’s shine, giving your locks a radiance that’s hard to resist. For the best glossy hair results, use a serum that can be applied before and after you dry your hair. This will help you achieve that silky softness and luxurious shine.

3. Protect against humidity

If humidity tends to get the best of you, you’ll love how the right hair serum can help change the way your locks respond to environmental elements – like humidity and heat. It’s just another way you can have more control over hair with its own mind!

4. Soften strands

Damaged or over-processed hair can feel dry and brittle to the touch – and let’s face it, nobody wants to run their hands through that! Applying a small amount of hair serum can help soften your strands, making them feel silkier and healthier.

6. Prepares hair for styling

Hot tools can wreak havoc on the health of your hair, but a styling serum with protective properties will help to reduce damage. It will also make your locks more supple so that a hairstyle is easier to achieve (and hold for longer).
