  In the top five 🙏

  Hair oil I find really hard to find for my hair. Many oils make my hair greasy, even flatter and dull, so it was with a mix of fear and excitement that I saw I would be testing this oil as a #lykoinflutester. Now I will tell you how it went, but first a little about my hair: • Thin and lacks volume on its own. • Gets greasy quickly at the roots but the lengths remain somewhat dry. • Usually use a small amount of oil both in towel-dried hair and as a finishing touch after styling. About the product: • Perfect packaging that pumps out a suitable amount of oil. • Again, I need to mention the scent as I am not a big fan of citrus/lavender/unisex, but in this case, it works anyway as the scent is not as overpowering as the shampoo/conditioner in the series. • Just the right consistency, easy to warm up and distribute in the hair. • Contains heat protection up to 230 degrees. (Good complement, but I wouldn’t only use this for heat protection.) The result: Impressed! Does not split my hair into greasy strips and does not make my hair greasy. If I take almost a full pump in damp hair and then the same amount when the hair is styled, it gives such a fresh look to the hair. Shiny without weighing down my thin hair in any way! This oil works well with other base products I’ve used, so you don’t need to invest in the whole series to see results! If the scent had been more feminine or luxurious, it would easily have landed in the top three of all the oils I’ve tested, but despite the scent, it will probably still land in the top five, not bad at all since I’ve tested sooooo many oils! #lykoinflutester #lorealpro

  Works, but smells very strong!

  I have thin Nordic hair that is a bit bleached in the lengths. Before I started testing the Metal DX series from L’Oréal Professional, my hair was dry and frizzy. It needed both moisture and shine. The oil comes in a nice bottle, with good quality on the pump. It is a bit thick, so if you have thin hair like me, I recommend a small pump in wet hair. Tip!: make sure to "warm"/rub the product well in your hands before applying, so you avoid weighing down the hair or it feeling unevenly distributed. As mentioned in the title, the oil works very well for my hair type. I found that it became shinier and healthier. But.. and this is a big BUT, the entire Metal DX series smells, according to feedback from me, my partner, and several of my friends, veeeery strong!! I simply had to give up testing after a week and a half, as I felt like I was walking around smelling like a men's wardrobe. The series smells very similar to Axe body spray for men, not a scent I personally prefer to be associated with. (I received several comments on this, without anyone knowing I had these products in.) So despite good results on the hair, I can only give it two stars, as the smell became way too intense. #Lykoinflutester #LorealPro

    Hi Marielle 🤍 Thank you so much for your feedback! So fun that you got to test this, but sorry to hear that the scent was a bit too intense. Wishing you a lovely holiday season 🎄

  Change in the formula?

  Has L'Oreal changed the formula in this oil? The new version is runny and doesn't feel nearly as nourishing as the old one, which unfortunately makes it a completely different product that I would no longer recommend.

    Hey Linn! 💜 Thank you for sharing your experience – we really understand how disappointing it is when a favorite product no longer feels the same 🙈 L'Oréal sometimes makes adjustments to their formulas, but we haven't received any official information about a change for this particular oil. However, there may be updates in packaging or ingredients that affect consistency and feel 💙 Hope you find a new favorite, and we're just an email away if you want tips! 💫 Take care!

  Hair that breaks off.

  I understand this is mainly for the lengths? I have hair that breaks off 2-3 cm from the scalp, but this might get too greasy and heavy in that case? Tips are welcome.

    Hey hey Helena 😃👋 Yes, this product is primarily developed for hair lengths, but I think it will work well to use it closer to the scalp if you apply a small amount to towel-dried hair. Products usually distribute better in damp than dry hair, and the risk of it becoming heavy and greasy decreases 😍👌 An alternative is a spray product that can be even easier to distribute finely near the scalp, like this moisturizing spray from Waterclouds 👌 I also recommend using it on towel-dried hair instead of dry hair, to avoid it becoming heavy and greasy 😊 lyko.com/sv/waterclouds/waterclouds-intensive-moist-treatment-150ml Good luck and take care of yourself! 💗

  How does the product work

  Hi, I have a lot of metals in my water at home due to copper pipes and my own well. My hair has a lot of metals, and when it gets wet, it smells like metal. How do all of L'Oréal's metal dx products work? And especially their oil, does it absorb the impurities? Can I use it at home or do you recommend that it should only be used, for example, at the gym?

    Hey Alice! 👋😊 The Metal DX series is specifically designed to protect hair from metal particles that are often found in water from private wells or older pipes 🙌 The Metal DX Anti-Deposit Protector Concentrate works as a protective leave-in product that helps prevent new metal particles from sticking to the hair with every wash. It doesn't suck out existing metals, but it helps keep the hair clean from new deposits. You can definitely use it at home! It's perfect to have as a complement in your shower routine – or take it to the gym if you often wash your hair there! 💧 Good luck with your hair 😍

    Hey hey Emma 🥰 This is the same product, but in different sizes 😃✨ So you'll get protection from metals in your water and lovely shine for your hair from both of these! I hope this can become your new favorite oil 💗

  Shine, nourishment, and protection 🌸

  I recently tried Metal DX Concentrated Oil, and it quickly became a favorite in my hair care routine. This hair oil combines nourishment, protection, and shine, making it a versatile product that is perfect for all hair types, especially color-treated and damaged hair. After just one application, my hair felt stronger and healthier. The product noticeably reduced the amount of broken hair strands, and my hair became instantly more nourished without feeling heavy. I also noticed that my hair looked fuller and was easier to style. The oil helped give my highlighted blonde hair an incredible shine that enhanced the color. My hair looked more vibrant and healthy, and the effect lasts between washes. One of the best features of this oil is its dual protection against frizz and heat with heat protection up to 230°C, which is perfect for me as I often use heat tools. The rich yet lightweight consistency makes the product incredibly easy to use. It absorbs quickly without leaving any sticky feeling, and just 1-2 pumps are enough to cover the lengths and ends. Metal DX Concentrated Oil is a perfect finishing touch in the Metal DX routine. It complements the shampoo, mask, and leave-in cream, providing complete protection for the hair while improving its appearance and feel. This oil is a must-have for anyone looking to care for their hair and maintain the intensity of their color. The combination of shine, nourishment, and protection truly lives up to its reputation. I will definitely continue to use it to keep my hair strong, shiny, and frizz-free! #LYKOINFLUTESTER #LOREALPRO

  Metal DX Hair Oil

  Do you want shiny and beautiful hair? Then this is a product for you! I've been using this hair oil for about a month, and I find that my hair stays nice for a long time! I don't think it weighs my hair down either when used on dry or wet hair. I've also used it as a heat protectant, so all in all, it's a product that gives both shine and protection 😊 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #LOREALPRO

  Oil in a new format

  I have not had a very positive experience with hair oils. I always felt uncomfortable, my hair seemed greasy. Now I have it, with a masculine scent (for those who are single, the scent of the oil will give the feeling of a man's presence in your hair, like after a hot hug😍). This may be a joke and a warning for people who value or are sensitive to fragrances on their body. This product is like a healing essence, not very similar to oil, dries quickly on hair, softens it even with daily use. Hair looks well-groomed, soft, shiny. I wash my hair once every 4 days. I don't use a flat iron. I dry it with a hair dryer. I am very happy with the result. I recommend it. It supports my porous blonde hair 💪👌 #LYKOINFLUTESTER #LOrealPRO

  Very good hair oil that gives a nice result

  As a #lykoinflutester, I have now been testing a series consisting of four products from #lorealpro's Metal Dx series for three weeks. I have thick, straight, long, and natural hair. I usually use hair products that I have been recommended here in Lyko's hair test and wash my hair every other day. But it's always exciting to try new products😊 Of the four products in the series, I must say that this hair oil was my favorite. I have switched between the leave-in cream and the hair oil as a finishing touch after shampoo and hair mask. Both do a good job for my hair, but the hair oil is probably the one that gives the best result for my hair. I find it to be more «collecting» for my broken hair strands, making them less prominent. Additionally, it gives a nice and shiny hair. The pump bottle makes it easy to dose the right amount. I warm the oil in my hands before applying it to the ends and the lower part of my hair. Like the rest of the series, the masculine scent is what brings it down for me, even though the oil is probably the one that smells the least of this series and that I could continue to use alongside my regular products.
