This hair milk (leave-in hair treatment) is designed for those with troublesome hair, including those with curly or wavy hair, as well as those with frizz, volume, dryness, stiffness, tangles, split ends, breakage, and damage. It's richly formulated with rich moisturizing ingredients, including an "anti-wave" ingredient that controls frizz, Polyquaternium-64, which has twice the moisturizing power of hyaluronic acid, and other ingredients. It also contains salon-quality repair ingredients, six types of botanical oils for hair protection, UV protection ingredients, anti-static ingredients, and other ingredients that will help those with troublesome hair. This high-performance hair milk is designed to address the common frizz, wavy, and frizzy hair problems, while emphasizing moisturizing, without stickiness, leaving hair silky smooth and soft.

I tried it on a family member and loved the scent, so I bought it. I use two pumps on hair up to collarbone length. It goes down smoothly and doesn't leave hair sticky. I use one pump after showering, and one pump after drying, and my hair stays smooth until the next morning. I use it during the day before going out, but because it's the dry season, my hair starts to dry out in the afternoon or evening, so I have to reapply.
I've finished using the Deep Repair Moist type from the same series, so I decided to try this milk type. It blends well with my hair and has a fresh, clean scent that I like. I apply it to wet hair before drying it with a hair dryer. The next morning, it keeps my hair from getting messy and leaves it smooth and silky to the touch. My hair is just long enough to barely reach my shoulders, so one and a half pumps was enough. It's easy to use and has a light finish that's not too heavy. The scent also disappears the next morning, so it doesn't interfere with perfume or other fragrances, which I also liked. If you're concerned about damage, have coarse hair, or prefer a moist, heavy feel, I recommend the Deep Repair Moist type. If you have short or fine hair, or prefer a smooth, light feel, I think the milk type would be a good choice.
It has a refreshing, clean smell! I think even men could use it. I'm grateful for this, as Elujuda has a sweet smell that I don't like. The milk isn't heavy, and the cost performance isn't great. But it's good because it's not sticky.
I bought this because I have thick, coarse, wavy hair that's very difficult to manage. I use it at night before blow-drying, and I feel like my hair is now moisturized and smooth to the touch. It's not a dramatic improvement, like "my hair is now easier to manage!" but the scent is strong and sweet, and it lingers until the next day.
My hair is bleached, but it's now smooth! I think it's perfect for my hair type.
