Review: Charles Worthington Salon At Home Straight & Smooth Serum

Recently, I've found myself caring a lot more about the state of my hair. I usually don't buy or use a lot of products for my hair other than shampoo and conditioner but I've decided I want to take better care of my hair and take more time styling it.

First things first, the condition of my hair isn't too bad. My hair is quite long and colour treated. I do suffer with occasional outbreaks of split ends (who doesn't, eh?) but I don't think it massively effects the condition or look of my hair, and of course I will chop them off if they do start to effect it. My hair is naturally straight and cut with layers, which can cause my hair to look a bit frizzy after a quick blow dry. I usually run my GHD's through the ends to flatten the frizz. I do find that my hair can be quite knotty but my Tangle Teezer (Review Here) is pretty good at taming the knots but they frequently reform throughout the day. Shamefully, I don't use any heat protection or deep treatments and didn't use any serums until now (I know, what kind of beauty blogger am I?).

First impressions of the Charles Worthington Salon At Home Straight & Smooth Serum is that the tube is pretty small with only 50ml of product inside. The packaging is quite sleek and professional looking, which makes sense as this serum is part of the Charles Worthington Salon At Home range. The paraben free serum is clear and a thick liquid that comes out of a pump at the top of the tube. It's described as a "multi-action serum that tames and protects unruly hair for long lasting control, a glossy finish and a sleek shine. It works to tame flyaways and calm frizz, leaving hair silky and lustrous". I have found that one pump of this serum is enough to apply to the ends of my hair. The texture of this product is thick and sticky at first but after running it through my hands, it turns into more of a silky oil. I quite like the texture and it applies nicely to my hair.

Since using this serum, I have definitely noticed a difference in my hair. It seems to be getting less knotty and holds a nice shine. I agree that it has improved the frizziness of my hair but I still find myself running my GHD's through the ends of my hair, more out of habit I think, but it does keep my hair straighter for longer. I have found that this serum appears to have improved the condition of my hair. It just seems to look healthier. I'm really glad I picked up this serum from Boots for £5.99, which I don't this is a bad price considering the size and how much I like this product. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone with a similar hair type to me.

Have you used any products from the Charles Worthington Salon At Home range? What do you think of them?
