When I had short hair, I avoided this oil because it made my hair a little too heavy, but when I had a bob-based hairstyle that was just shoulder-length, it gave the ends of my hair just the right amount of weight, making it easy to keep in place, and I found it very useful. It's not an oil that creates movement or an airy feel, but it's better suited to hairstyles that prevent damage and frizz, and for styling that keeps hair straight all the way to the ends. It has the same scent as Attenir's yellow shampoo, so as a shampoo lover, I feel that the fact that the scents don't clash is an advantage of using the series. I've now cut my hair short and sleek again, so I don't have a chance to use this one. It would be ideal if they came out with a lighter oil for short hair.
