After showering, I apply about 3 pumps to my semi-long hair before drying it. I feel like the color has lasted longer since I started using this. After drying it, my hair feels moisturized and smooth to the touch. I also like the subtle and elegant scent. It's good value for money, so I'd like to buy it again.
The texture is easy to blend into your hair and leaves it feeling moisturized and smooth. It's not heavy to the touch, so it's great to use before drying your hair. Every time you move, the sweet scent of apricot and rose wafts through your hair and smells great. It comes in three different types, so you can choose the finish that suits you best. It was one of the best hair milks to use!
I started using this product after my hairdresser recommended it to me. Oil makes my hair sticky, so I like milk and it suits my hair better.
I wondered if 80ml was too little, or if it would run out quickly, but the nozzle was so thin that only a small amount came out, so it was just the right amount for short hair, which was great! It's also comfortable to use! It's not too heavy, and not too watery! I also like the scent. It's quite fragrant from the time I put it on until I go to sleep, so it helps me relax. The next day, it's odorless. That's also great!
The texture isn't too thick, but it's not too light either. One pump dispenses only a small amount, so it's easy to adjust the amount. The scent is stronger than the feel. It's not a strong scent, but if you don't like this type of scent, it might be a bit too much. It has a sweet cherry blossom-like scent, so if you can try it, it's best to smell it before buying. I usually apply it before blow-drying. After drying, my hair seems to be pretty manageable. Also, as I said earlier, the scent is strong, so it lingers even after drying and into the next morning. It's not too sticky, so I think it could be used for styling in the morning. I think there are other products with a similar feel that cost less than 1,000 yen, so I don't think it's worth continuing to use this product. Other than the scent, there aren't any other unique features of this product.
