Absolut Repair Molecular - Rinse-off Serum

L'Oréal Absolut Repair Molecular Rinse-Off Serum

2-stars. Enjoyed the strong musky scent. The product itself did nothing for my hair. Would not repurchase.

It Works, but the Smell is Nauseating

I have a love-hate relationship with this. On the good side, it works. Beautifully. It makes my hair silky smooth and feel incredible. However, the smell is beyond nauseating. It is extremely heavy, woody, and sweet, which is amplified in the hot humid shower and leaves me feeling sick for hours. I am not a scent-sensitive person, so I can't even imagine how someone sensitive to fragrance or with asthma would feel. I really hope they come out with a fragrance-free version so I can use this without getting sick.

Didn’t work for me

I have coarse, long, dry, color treated hair and did not find this product moisturizing enough. As compared to my redken routine, it didn’t leave my hair soft or shiny. I would also say if you’re particular about scent, to make sure you’re okay with it before buying.

Saved my damaged hair!

I love this product! I have dark brown hair and recently bleached it completely to get it to a bronde color, and it was my first time bleaching my hair so it was incredibly dry and crunchy and damaged afterwards. I decided to try this to help save my hair and after just one use, I felt and saw the difference! It made my hair feel so much softer and brought it back to life. I’ve been using it for about 3 months now and I truly believe that this was the key to making my hair healthy again. Cannot recommend this enough to those with color-treated & damaged hair!

Healthier Hair

I love how this serum strengthens my fragile hair. I immediately saw results. My hair looks healthier! The smell doesn’t bother me but if it did I would still use it to achieve the results.

Pricy but it works

Got this as a trial size. The smell is awful and the product is pricy but this works. My hair was damaged and broken from bleach. After a few uses my hair feels so soft and less brittle

Nice but expensive

This is actually good. I got a deluxe sample. I had slightly damaged hair from highlights that was a little tangled. I also have thick, various curl patterned hair. it came out not frizzy and easy to comb. I would buy it, but I have a feeling that loreal has cheaper options in one of their other brands. like elvive, or garnier.

Do not recommend

Thank goodness I got the sample size from buying other hair items. The smell is horrific.I just washed my hair twice and did a mask to try to fix what this did to my hair AFTER 1 TRY! Zero stars. Absolutely vile and drying .

It’s a must after shampooing

I bought this and Jesus my hair def saw a huge difference!! It kind of instantly repairs!! Yes you need to make sure you get rid of all the excess water and apply this to your ends and length! It works magic ladies.

Tuned my platinum highlights brown.

After using this product once, it turned my platinum highlights brown. A little warning would've been nice.

Fragrance burned my arms

Where the serum dripped on my wrists and forearms had a burning sensation and red marks the next day. The smell is strong like Clarins Double Serum, actually worse. (That also burns me) If you are sensitive to fragrance, don't buy this. I was careful to not apply to my scalp and only the ends, but I failed everywhere else... Only reason it isn't getting a zero is because it did give my curls some bounce after I rinsed. It did *something* but unfortunately also burned my arms and made me itch like crazy for 2 days. If this came fragrance free or with their Liss scent, I'd repurchase. Otherwise waste of money.

Smells horrid but is amazing

This serum smells horrid. That is the only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars. Like omg I can’t wait until I can put something else in my hair to cover the smell. But it works! It’s definitely worth it! My hair is thick and wavy so I always have frizz and poofiness to my hair. But it is so much softer and feels so much better
