We all strive to keep our hair looking shiny and smooth, but many of us are guilty of a common beauty mistake.
Hair stylist Matt, known as mattloveshair on TikTok, often shares tips and tricks for better hair care. She recently revealed that the routine may be making your hair greasy, especially when it comes to using hair serums.
It seems that many of us have misused it. Matt advises against putting the serum directly on your hands and then your hair, warning that this method will make you believe the serum is causing greasiness.
She explained, “You have to spread the product until it’s so thin in your palms — like literally — watch me rub and rub and rub. I want it to be like shiny and bright in my palms. Slowly hit mostly the ends.”
In a nutshell, you need to work the product in carefully before applying. Just hitting it can result in hair that looks unwashed.
Since posting the video, it has garnered over 180,000 likes and viewers have spoken out about their thoughts. His followers suggested that such important advice should be included on product packaging.
One user noted, “It works better on damp hair after a shower.” Another confessed: “Omg – I’ve never done this.” A third complained, “I don’t know how to do anything right.”
Meanwhile, another shared a success story, writing: “I did this technique while applying the last hair serum. My curls have been the softest.”
