What Is A Hair Serum And How Does It Work?

Hair serum is a protective layer that coats the cuticle of your hair and protects it from damage while also making it smoother, shinier, and easier to manage. Depending on the type of serum, you can apply it to the length of your hair or to both the ends and the scalp.

When you add things like daily hair washing to the mix, your hair is bound to be damaged. A hair serum comes in handy in this situation. It has a number of hair-related advantages.

These homemade hair serums can be applied to both the scalp and the ends of your hair. There are no chemicals in homemade hair serums, and you may produce a new batch every few weeks. They can be made with a combination of hair oils and essential oils. You can tailor the mix to your specific needs based on your hair type and concerns.
