How To Apply Hair Serum: # Expert Tips

What is a hair serum?

Hair serums are lightweight liquid-based solutions made with high-quality essential oils and ingredients that effectively treat various hair issues, such as dry, damaged, frizzy, and dull-looking hair. They can even help you grow your hair and treat premature greying. Finding the ideal hair serum for you has the potential to transform your life entirely and polish your look even more!  Using a hair serum correctly will help you avoid greasy hair and give you shinnier and healthier hair. 

What’s The Difference Between Hair Serums And Oils?

Hair serums are more lightweight than hair oil but nourish and enhance hair texture. Serums can be used as styling tools and a quick fix to treat your hair on the surface, while oils penetrate the cuticle to condition the hair's core.

How to Apply a Hair Serum?

A good hair serum can do wonders for your hair, but the key lies in the application process. The application can make or break the experience, even if the product is fantastic. Here is how to use hair growth serum the right way!

1. Use it on damp hair. The best way is to apply it after a hair wash when it is 70-80% dried, and your scalp is clean,
2. Add one or two drops of hair serum to the palm of your hand. Warm the serum between your palms for five seconds.
3. Work your way up to the middle of your hair strands from the ends. The ends are where you should start to give your hair maximum shine and a glossy look. Using your hands, try to distribute the substance evenly.
4. When using hair serum, use mild pressure. Do not tear through your hair, as this may harm it.
5. Brush your hair with light strokes using a comb, preferably a wooden comb. Gently spread the product evenly from the middle of your strands to the ends.
6. Style your hair as usual: Patuá & Hyaluronic Acid Smoothening Hair Serum by Pilgrim will make styling your hair more manageable.
7. Use a heat protectant if your serum is not one.
8. You can use more serum for touch-ups throughout the day.

What not to do while applying a hair serum?

The points below will give you a good idea of how to apply serum to hair and avoid certain things.

1. Initially, do not apply hair serum to unclean or unwashed hair.
2. Do not apply hair serum to the roots. Starting at the roots can yield unwanted results and even make the hair greasy.
3. Applying too much serum is never an intelligent choice, regardless of hair length or texture. A pea amount of product is good to go; take a little more if you have thicker hair. Remember, it is not about the quantity but the proper application.
