Wella Professionals Oil Reflections Smoothening Serum Review, Price & Buy Online India
I keep torturing you with all the details of my unruly hair, right? Well I’m about to do it again 😀 I have been using hair serums ever since I can remember and till date there are only 2 that I would re-purchase. One being the Kerastase Elixir Ultime The Imperial which costs a bomb and the more pocket friendly Wella Professionals Oil Reflections Smoothening Treatment which fyi is not the typical hair oil we Indians associate with. Read on for the detailed review.
Price: Rs 850
Quantity: 100ml
Can be bought online at Flipkart
Product Description
This multi-sensorial hair oil spray, with macadamia seed oil, avocado oil and vitamin E, known as a natural anti-oxidant, instantly reveals the beautiful, natural reflections of hair color with a very lightweight technology that makes hair feel incredibly light and supple. High, glossy reflections: specifically designed to enhance the shine of Wella Professionals Color, making it up to 86% more reflective
Packaging
The Wella Professional Oil Reflections Serum comes in a luxurious glass bottle with a pump dispenser. The bottle is made of glass, a bit bulky and not at all travel friendly. I’m always afraid of dropping it and breaking it. However, the pump dispenser is great and dispenses just the right amount of product. I hate pumps that dispense way too much product leading to wastage.

Consistency & Scent
The Wella Professional Smoothing Treatment has a strong sweet scent which does bother my sensitive nose a bit. It reduces upon application but I am somehow not too fond of the scent though my bestie loves it! Now, this is not your average hair oil which you massage onto your scalp. This is a lightweight treatment oil which needs to be used as a serum .
Best hair Serum For Colored & Fine Hair India: Wella Professionals Oil Reflections Hair Serum Review & Price India
The texture of the Wella Professional Oil Reflections Smoothening Treatment is quite thick and when I tried it for the first time I felt it would weigh down fine hair. However, once you apply it onto the mid length and the ends of your hair, it feels quite lightweight. I have super, super thick hair and I need 2-3 pumps of the serum for my hair. My friend with fine hair has tried it too and it she usually just needs a pump or 2 and the serum does not feel oily at all.

Efficacy
I usually use The Oil Reflections Serum on my damp hair. It does make my hair more manageable, controls frizz but it isn’t the ultimate serum for me. I have extremely dry hair and heavy duty serums known to weigh down hair work better for me. However, what I do love it for is how it makes my hair color brighter. I thought I was just being silly because of the claims but I switched to my Kerastase Serum for a few weeks and my hair color looks way more vibrant with the Wella one.
I believe this would work well for for those with normal to dry hair hoping to add some shine and control frizz. However, if you have crazy unmanageable, dry and thick hair like mine then do not expect it to work miracles. That said, it is one of the few hair serums in India that managed to control my frizz on any given day though it wasn’t the ultimate solution for my dry hair. At Rs 850 for 100ml , it might not be termed as an affordable hair serum in India but it will last you a really, really long time.

1) Lightweight texture
2) Does not weigh down fine hair
3) Makes hair color more vibrant
4) Controls frizz to a good extent
5) Adds a bit of shine to the hair
6) One bottle would last you a long time
1) Doesn’t do much for the dryness
2) I find the scent a bit too strong for my liking
HBM Rating
HBM Recommendation: Wella Professionals Oil Reflections Serum is great at controlling frizz and adding vibrancy to your hair color. It has a lightweight texture which does not weight down even fine hair. However, I have extremely dry and thick hair & I feel the need for something heavier. That said, I do believe this will work very well normal to dry hair especially girls with fine hair.

aaaaah..can't stand strong fragrances...that too in my hair!
Tell me about it though it does reduce quite a bit upon application
I wanted to get this...but I think if it didn't work wonders for your hair, it won't work for mine either :(
yeah, but its great at controlling frizz :)
You have gorgeous hair anyway Lisha (touchwood). Though I love the Kerastase Elixir Ultime, I think I'll also give this serum a shot.
Ooooh how I wish that was true! My hair is so unmanageable without heat styling :'(
The Kerastase Elixir Ultime is definitely the one I love the most but yes this works quite well too!
Seems like u hv become the voice of my woes. I hv extremly dull n fizzy hair. Thanks for suggesting this one sweets.
aha! I always like it when I come across people with my hair type and I can discuss what works for them coz then I know it'll work for mine too :D
I have this but havn;t tried it yet! Lovely review Babe ...Gonna check it out! :)
Thank you sweety! I look forward to your review of the serum :)
nice review, I have been using mine since last year and its lasting for a long time now so its good for the money you pay :)
Definitely! I have been using it since forever and haven't even managed to finish half of the bottle.
seems like a good option for my dry n frizzy hair. I would love to give it a try :)
You'll definitely like it :)
i have frizzy hair so I will give it a try :)
Then this is definitely the one for you
I tried this out too but did not like it much. The smell is a little too strong and somehow I find my Loreal serum to work a lot better thsn this on my hair
The smell is such an issue for me at times especially when my sinus is acting up!
I love, love L'Oreal hair care products but sadly their styling products do nothing for my hair :(
