'Best' £17 hair oil shopper has 'ever used' and her hair has 'never felt so soft'
While the recent spell of warm weather has been delightful, it can often result in dry, dull or frizz-prone hair, reminiscent of Monica Geller's infamous 'humidity hair' episode in Friends. However, shoppers believe they've discovered the ultimate remedy in a £17 'miracle oil' that claims to 'control frizz for up to 96 hours', equating to four days. Wella Professionals' new Ultimate Smooth range works hard to 'smooth and nourish the hair from the inside out'. The four-step haircare system includes a shampoo, conditioner, mask, and its star product - the Miracle Oil Serum. The leave-in treatment promises to control frizz for up to 96 hours, deliver 85% smoother hair, and offer protection against heat up to 230°C, as well as UV exposure. It's crafted with squalane and omega-9, skincare-inspired ingredients known to moisturise the hair cuticle while polishing the hair surface, forming a lightweight, protective barrier. The formula, suitable for use on both damp and dry hair, has a long-lasting fragrance with notes of citrus, floral, and amber, according to the Mirror. The oil serum is touted to provide 'silk-like results', with customers praising it as the 'best ever' after it transformed their 'straw-like' locks. Despite its recent introduction to the market, Wella's range of salon-quality products has already garnered numerous five-star reviews. One satisfied customer praised: "Great packaging, smells divine. If you thought your hair was smooth? Try this, and you won't regret it, as your hair becomes extra smooth and smells fabulous. It becomes sleek and more manageable." Another user, who struggles with dry and frizzy hair, was equally impressed, stating: "I have the driest, frizziest hair possible, think straw, especially from mid-length to ends. This was only delivered today, so I had to use it as soon as I got out of the shower; wow, just wow. "I don't think my hair has ever felt this soft; without question, this is the best thing I have ever used, and trust me when I say I've spent a fortune on products over the years. I'm about to order another one, or maybe two, so I never run out." However, not all reviews were glowing. One reviewer found the Miracle Oil Serum a bit too heavy for their liking, particularly towards the end of the day, despite attempts to use less product. They shared: "I think this miracle oil serum is good, and it helps calm down the frizz; however, I feel it is a little too heavy for my hair, and at the end of the day, it feels a lot greasier than it would have done without the product. "I have tried using a lesser amount, but the product then doesn't work as well. I would recommend this, but be prepared that you may need to rewash your hair the following day." However, some are praising it as a must-have accessory, with one user stating: "This really does do exactly what it says and smoothes my hair out in seconds. I love using this when I've styled my hair and also keep it in my handbag as an essential for any particularly frizzy days as this smooths instantly." If Wella's serum doesn't seem like the right match for your hair type, you might consider the Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil (£19.55) as an alternative. This lightweight oil works to repair damaged hair while adding shine and controlling frizz. Alternatively, the L'Oréal Professionnel Serie Expert Absolut Repair 10-in-1 Leave-in Oil (£26.29) is designed for those with dry, damaged hair. This fast-absorbing oil utilises wheat germ to deeply hydrate and enhance shine and gloss, while helping to reduce the appearance of split ends and flyaways. The Wella Miracle Oil Serum, along with the rest of the range, is also currently discounted. The smaller 30ml bottle of the serum - perfect for those wanting to try the product - is usually priced at £22 but is now available for £17, while the larger 100ml bottle is £35.60, offering a 20% saving off its usual £44 price tag. The shampoo, conditioner, and hair mask are also available, priced at £18.52, £20.60, and £24.20, respectively. For those seeking better value, the Wella Professionals Care Exclusive Ultimate Smooth Bundle is available for £68.90, offering a £20 saving. Packaged in a clear, zip-up bag, it's perfect for holiday travel. These products will remain discounted until 29 June before reverting to their original prices. the new collection here.

Shoppers say £17 oil that 'controls frizz for 96 hours' is 'best they've used'
Wella's brand new Ultimate Smooth Miracle Oil Serum is designed to control frizz for up to four days, and has already racked up a number of five star reviews As lovely as this recent warm weather has been, it can often lead to dry, dull, or frizz-prone hair and looking like Monica Geller in that episode of Friends (it's the humidity!) However, shoppers think they've found the ultimate solution in a £17 'miracle oil' that promises to 'control frizz for up to 96 hours' - that's right, four whole days. It comes as Wella Professionals' has released their brand new Ultimate Smooth range, which works to 'smooth and nourish the hair from the inside and out'. The four-step haircare system features a shampoo, conditioner, mask, and its hero product - the Miracle Oil Serum. The leave-in treatment is designed to control frizz for up to 96 hours, deliver 85% smoother hair, and protect against heat up to 230°C, as well as UV exposure. It's formulated using squalane and omega-9, which are skincare-inspired ingredients which help moisturise the hair cuticle while polishing the hair surface, creating a lightweight, protective barrier. The multi-purpose formula, which can be used on damp or dry hair, also happens to be vegan, and has a long-lasting, luxurious scent with citrus, floral, and amber notes. The oil serum is said to deliver 'silk-like results', with customers hailing it the 'best ever' after it transformed their 'straw-like' tresses. Despite being pretty new to the market, Wella's reputation for salon-quality products has seen the range rack up a number of five star reviews already. One said: 'Great packaging, smells divine. If you thought your hair was smooth? Try this and will not regret it as hair becomes extra smooth, will smell fabulous. It becomes sleek and more manageable.' Another added: 'I have the driest, frizziest hair possible, think straw, especially from mid length to ends. This was only delivered today, so I had to use it as soon as I got out of the shower, wow just wow. I don't think my hair has ever felt this soft, without question this is the best thing I have ever used, and trust me when I say I've spent a fortune on products over the years. I'm about to order another one, or maybe two, so I never run out.' One reviewer found the Miracle Oil Serum a bit heavy, especially by the end of the day, despite trying to use less product. They commented: 'I think this miracle oil serum is good, and it definitely helps calm down the frizz, however I feel it is a little too heavy for my hair and at the end of the day it feels a lot greasier than it would have done without the product. I have tried using a lesser amount, but the product then doesn't work as well. I would definitely recommend this but be prepared that you may need to wash your hair again the following day.' Others, however, are hailing it as a handbag essential, commenting: 'This really does do exactly what it says and smoothes my hair out in seconds. I love using this when I've styled my hair and also keep it in my handbag as an essential for any particularly frizzy days as this smooths instantly.' Still, no one product suits everyone. If Wella's serum doesn't sound quite right for your hair type, the Olaplex No.7 Bonding Oil could be a good alternative, and it's currently £19.55 down from £28 at Beauty Bay. The lightweight oil repairs damaged hair while adding shine and controlling frizz. It's silicone-free, ideal for chemically treated hair, and especially good for fine hair that needs repair without heaviness. Elsewhere, the L'Oréal Professionnel Serie Expert Absolut Repair 10 in 1 Leave in Oil is crafted for people with dry, damaged hair. The fast-absorbing oil utilises wheat germ to deeply-hydrate, boost shine and gloss, while working to reduce the look of split ends and flyaways. This one is currently £26.29 down from £29.10 at LookFantastic. The Wella Miracle Oil Serum is also on offer, along with the rest of the range. The smaller 30ml bottle of the serum - ideal for getting acquainted with the product - is usually £22 but is down to £17, while the larger 100ml bottle is £35.60 (20% off its usual £44 price tag). The shampoo, conditioner and hair mask are also reduced, coming in at £18.52, £20.60 and £24.20 respectively. But for greater value, there's the Wella Professionals Care Exclusive Ultimate Smooth Bundle with Bag which gets customers the shampoo, conditioner and oil for £68.90, saving £20 on the RRP. It very handily comes in a clear, zippable bag that's ideal for taking on holiday, too. The products are set to be reduced until June 29 before going back up to full price. So for anyone seeking a solution for dry, frizzy, and unruly hair, Wella's latest collection might just be your new haircare hero. Shoppers can explore the new range here.
