My experience:
The Organic Seeds Hair Essence is very sustainable product for someone with very thick and dry hair. If your hair is thin, you may not like it at all. The smell of the essence is very mild and barely noticeable. Once applied on the hair it doesn’t linger and your hair will smell like your shampoo or conditioner (in case it is scented).
The texture is milky and tends to separate in the bottle into 2 layers. So shake well before using. A little of this product goes a very long way. The amount on the picture is what I use on my hair in order to nourish the damaged hair ends. If I apply this product through-ought the length of my hair I’d need 3 x the amount shown here. It looks very little but believe me, with this hair essence the less is more. If over-applied it leaves your hair looking greasy! Even when I applied it on my hand I could immediately see all the oil sitting atop of my hand for a while. It absorbs into my skin almost entirely in 10 minutes.
No doubt that this particular product will be glorious for women with curly hair. It will define them and nourish throughout the entire time between washes. I can personally close my eyes on the price of this product because it is very rich and intensive and definitely tames down my hair madness. Still, I’ll be a precautious buyer and invest into few more samples before getting the full size bottle. One tiny bottle lasts me for a mont with ease so for now there is no need for super-huge bottle.
