RUSK Designer Collection Thermal Serum with Argan Oil, Alcohol-Free Conditioning Serum, Heat Protection and Shine, Frizz Eliminator, 4.2 oz

I have extensions and they were always tangling, I tried 3 different oils, they dried my hair out worse. I’m OBSESSED with this alcohol free product. Smells good, made my hair so soft and bouncy.

Perfect!!

My hair is usually flat and after a blow dry just all over the place. I am so glad I tried this Thermal Serum. My hair feels conditioned and in control after the blow dry. I can style it easier because it is not all over the place. I don't like my hair if I don't use this. I love it, love it. I don't say that about any other product I use consistently. If you haven't tried it, you need to. My hair is color treated and fine so this is my go to product.

It has a strange, funky odor. Thankfully, after hair is dried the smell goes away. Rusk is a brand I have known for years. This product gives lift and body. Also it will last a long time, as you only use a drop or two. Gives hair a smooth and silky feel.

The title is intended to be taken as gospel. I have chin-length hair and this bottle will probably last a year. Two carefully squeezed out drops and I’m GOOD. Any more and it’s way, way too much. But shading by the 2 drop rule gives me lots of shine and volume. I use the Rusk (other product I’m going to review - please check my page - it comes in a tube) and dry/style with the John Frieda blow brush and my hair looks great, finally! These three styling tools have given new life to a once flat, blah, in-between short hair transitioning back to bob.It looks especially heinous right now since my stylist is still closed, but the Thermal Serum has helped keep my hair from becoming dry and damaged from the blow brush and also gives it a nice shine.But 2 drops! Maybe experiment with additional drops depending on the length/thickness of your hair, but better to go slowly and add because once it’s in, there’s no getting it out until the next shampoo. Rusk definitely gives you bang for your buck!The only downside is it’s got the trademark Rusk “bagged salad” smell, as I’ve come to call it. Maybe I’m alone here, but their products smell like salad to me. The Thermal Protectant isn’t as potent as say, Thickr, but the essence au lettuce is still noticeable to me. It fades away, so no big deal, it’s just...strange until it does.Give me a like if you found this helpful or if you, too, find it salad-y. Salad-y but effective!

Ok so here goes. I have thin,curly, damaged hair. Basically the worst.It’s hard for me to want to use heat protectant when it makes my hair look dirty or oily. I’ve been shopping around trying different things, and as of 2-3 weeks I’ve been using this product.So it looks thick and like omg your hair is gonna be greasy but surprisingly it’s not !! I put very little (dime size amount) in my palms and spread it through my wet clean hair a couple times. Might be easy to put too much so start off w little then repeat process as needed. Smell is nice, somewhat familiar. It helps my hair look less damaged, helps keep my hair straight, gives my hair some weight, and my hair is growing!! Like I def see some growth prob from being so well protected! Def worth a try.UPDATE.6months later and I’m still using this. My hair has def grown and is being protected from heat !! Def will be buying another bottle soon.UPDATE 2/25/22Been using this since 10/10/20. Works well with other products without feeling greasy ! So you go girl and take care of that hair ! Literally putting this and like 4 other products in my hair including oils/ serums. Hair is shiny and longer than ever. Who knew putting time and effort in your hair would make it healthier and just better lol. Some of us gotta work for some things right! Worth it.UPDATE 03/30/23Still using this after every shower. I try new products regularly but this one is always my last step !!

The product itself was great the packaging was terrible. I opened it up and there was serum all over the box! I would give it 5 stars otherwise.

I don't use curling irons or blow dryersI just roller set my hair and sit under a dryer since my hair is straight and wavy and easily damaged. Since I've noticed severe dryness and frizz i decided to try this for rolling my wet hair before going under the dryer and I noticed that I can use a lot and it gives me shine and still doesn’t weigh my color treated hair down since I don't like greasy hair. Im italian so I need all the help I can get having tons of hair. I would recommend this product to women who rollerset they're hair that have frizz because you still need heat protection and shine .
