Leave in serum

Start by identifying your main goal and hair type. If color protection is a priority, pick serums marketed for color-treated hair, or those described as providing shine with color care. For color-treated strands you’ll find options like a patent leave-in serum designed to protect color, while dry or damaged hair benefits from nourishing formulas containing silk proteins or lightweight oils. The selection on this page includes sizes from around 50–100 ml for quick testing and larger 150–177 ml formulas for longer routines, giving you options to trial before committing.

Serums formulated for color-treated hair focus on color protection and fade resistance, often marketed as color-care or gloss-enhancing products. In this range, look for serums with terms like color protection or color-care, and consider lighter finishes to avoid washing out vibrant color. For instance, you’ll see options that emphasize shine while also mentioning color-safe properties, as well as formulas designed to deliver smoothness without heaviness, which helps preserve color over multiple washes.

For all hair types that seek a lightweight, non-greasy finish, choose serums described as lightweight or non-greasy. Examples include a Silk Infusion variant rich in silk proteins that is suited for all hair types, and other light formulas noted for a non-greasy feel. These choices deliver a smooth, shiny result without weighing hair down, making them versatile for straight, wavy, curly, and textured hair. Start with mid-length to ends application and adjust the amount to your hair’s thickness.

Apply a small, pea-sized amount to freshly towel-dried hair, focused on mid-lengths to ends. Avoid applying directly to the roots to prevent weighing hair down. Work serum through with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb, then style as usual or proceed to heat styling if desired. If you’re using a color-protecting formula, spread evenly to help maintain uniform color and shine across the entire head. Reseal the bottle after use to keep ingredients fresh.
