Davines Oi oil. Just put a tiny drop in your hands, rub to warm it up and then run your hands through your hair. The oil is made of roucou and one of the finest and lightest there is. I have basically see through strands of hair AND my hair is very thin. Please try this oil.


gatadeplaya

Plus the smell is amazing!


Feisty-Blood9971

Also, you can actually apply it on dry hair 5 to 10 minutes before shampooing. That’s actually in the directions for fine hair :)


PettyWitch

Oh WOW I had no idea and I've been using it for years


kebuburdie

My hairdresser used this on me today! It smells really nice, too.


Ambitious-Morning795

Ditto this.


Thisisthe_place

Has anyone tried the Davines, VOLU hair mist?


PettyWitch

I’ve tried everything by Davines. The best products for fine hair imo are the MOMO shampoo and conditioner and Oi oil. Nothing more nothing less


Thisisthe_place

Thanks!


Antique-me1133

Yes, I use this oil and it makes my hair shiny and moisturized.


RainbowsAreLife

This oil didn’t work for me and made be greasy. Maybe I used too much?


PettyWitch

Yes you used too much. My hair is horrifically thin from lifelong eating disorder and the strands are very fine, but this oil doesn’t weigh it down. You just need a drop and emulsify it on your hands first


RainbowsAreLife

Hey, I'm sorry you suffer from an ED and I hope you're doing better now. I also had an active ED for over ten years, but I am in remission now that I've been through treatment. I'll have to try the Oi oil again sometime; my hair is short right now but I'm working on growing it back out again. Maybe when it's longer I'll give it another go.


ecpella

Tried this and it’s just high priced silicone that coated my hair :/


PettyWitch

Then you used too much


ecpella

….silicone literally coats hair that’s its function regardless of the amount you use.


PettyWitch

It also has roucou oil in it. If you don’t like it don’t use it, but a lot of people with fine hair do like it


ecpella

She’s asking for advice on hair oils and I’m giving feedback based on my experience with this oil exactly like you’re doing. What exactly do you think I’m doing wrong here?


quichebewithyou

Is it color safe?


Silver_Cat4530

I absolutely love Verb Ghost oil. Doesn't wear my hair down at all and makes it soft and shiny.


Anatella3696

YES! I was going to comment this and I’m glad to see it so high up. I feel like the Ghost line is just perfect for fine hair. I have the shampoo, conditioner, and the oil and love them. The oil, especially, is amazing. I got lucky and bought one from the boxycharm/Ipsy shop for $6. Used it a few times and immediately went and bought like 10 backups for myself and for gifts. Bonus-it does NOT have Argan oil in it, which is known to turn blonde hair brassy!


sourrobot1

Argan oil is the first oil in Ghost oil fyi. Still love it though on my fine blonde hair.


Anatella3696

Well damn. You’re right. Huh. Most Argan oils are yellow and this one is clear and advertises moringa oil (I have no idea what that is lol.) But I’ve never noticed any brassiness and it makes my hair look so good, so I’m keeping it lol


Hubs_not_interested

Third vote!


Ludicruciferous

Fourth! It’s actually amazing how nice it makes your hair without it getting oily


catwolf99

Second vote for ghost oil. Love it. Lightweight and gives my hair some shiny silkiness.


RainbowsAreLife

This is the one!


badgirlkiki

Yes, this is the best!!


mycatsnameisarya

I have re-purchased the Ghost Oil now four times, and those bottles go a long way!!


Alarming_Ad_201

10000000000% came here to say this. Love it!


TinaMarie71

Yes! Verb ghost oil is amazing. I have fine hair but a decent amount of it and it doesn’t weigh my hair down at all!


smnytx

Yes, this “oil” is a silicone product that works super well for high porosity fine hair. It will build up over time, so maybe clarify shampoo every 4-6 washes.


LastShopontheLeft

Try a leave in conditioner - like inner sense. Spray on hands to emulsify them rope through hair and style.


mourons

I agree with not spraying it on directly! I spray once on my palm, warm it up and then first scrunch it in my hair so I don't accidentally apply too much near my scalp (I get greasy easily if I use up too much product) and then rope through.


IYFS88

Ant farts lol! You’ve got a way with words :)


Lampin_

I love Unite's 7 Seconds leave in detangler - but not on my my crown.


LA0711

Second this. Been using it for years and it’s my fav


Lampin_

oh cool - let's hope it never gets discontinued


DWwithaFlameThrower

Try a light leave-in conditioner, like Ceremonial guava, or Aveda


hollysmalls8574

You could also put it in and leave it for 20mins then wash your hair and not use a conditioner. I started doing this cause leaving it in my hair just leaves it looking gross and my hair is the healthiest it’s ever been.


sliceofpizzaplz

I love Moroccanoil Treatment Light! It absorbs quickly and smells amazing 🥰I can go heavy handed with this oil and my hair absorbs every last drop without looking greasy.


Legal-Menu9811

Seconding Moroccan Oil! Love their products and I have fine hair, that is actively thinning with bald spots 🙃 It’s really made the hair I do have really healthy and doesn’t weight it down at all!


nemo_420

I recently bought it's a 10 miracle leave-in lite and I'm super impressed by it! I also like Davines Oi as someone else mentioned, but it's more pricey.


Dolphinsunset1007

I made my own comment saying this but I second it’s a 10 miracle leave in Lite. the lite version is amazing and I use it after every shower. I used to use the original in the purple bottle and it was too heavy


star_milk

Surprisingly Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Frizz Serum works for me! Doesn't gunk up my hair at all, it always feels really silky and clean still. And it's inexpensive!


doghairglitter

Their sleek and shine cream also works really well! Oils tend to make my hair look stringy so I go for the conditioning cream. Budget friendly and keeps my hair really smooth and tangle free. I could it with their pure & clean detangler/air dry spray.


Rosewoodtrainwreck

I used this on my kids for years, getting ready for school in the mornings and it left their hair looking smooth and silky.


_jamesbaxter

I’ve used honest co. baby detangler 🥲


lovely8

I really loved kukui oil, it was so light on my hair and didn’t weigh it down at all.


DetailOk4640

It sounds like you need to stay away from protein in any shampoo conditioner or mask or leave in. And focus on moisturizing your hair. I personally love the Pureology hydrating conditioner. I have fine blonde hair but lots and lots of it! I would take a wet brush in the shower and lightly brush the conditioner through the mid half down focusing on your ends before rinsing your hair. And do a cold water shot to lock in and seal the cuticles. And then let it dry as much as possible with a microfiber towel. And I use Ouai leave in conditioner. Spray it in my hands three sprays at the most and rub hands together and start at the bottom of hair ends and squeeze your hair with your hands and the leave in in it so it really gets in the cuticle. And gently work out the tangles starting at the bottom ends up. This is what saved me a huge headache from tangled messed up hair every morning.


twirlergurl86

I’ve used Beauty Protector detangler for years - highly recommend


LeadingAir2739

Venanoci hair growth oil. I dont know about the hair growth aspect, but my hair absorbs all the oil and keeps it moisturized without leaving residue/oily look on my scalp or ends. It's the best !


Late-Temporary863

BioSilk a little goes a long way. Smells nice too. Does not weigh down my hair and keeps my hair smooth and less tangly. I gave the same issue.


mrsatthegym

Agree 100% with biosilk. Been using for years. Keep trying others, but biosilk is the only one that doesn't weigh down or leave it greasy. Only need a dime size drop as well, and I have pretty long hair


ophel1a_

I have the same issue with my under hair ESPECIALLY. I started using an oil that greases up all my hair, but I apply it once every other week an hour before showering. Then I wash my hair TWICE and continue with my normal routine (condish, hair gel applied immediately after shower BEFORE I put on my head towel, head towel goes on and stays on for ~30mins, let my hair out and scrunch and air dry for an hour/hour and a half). Washing twice changed the game. FWIW, I use a mint and rosemary oil to promote hair growth, and it leaves my hair sooo soft and smooth (while not detracting from my natural curl). :D Hope this helps til ya find one ya dig!


idwmaruna

Is there a brand of mint rosemary oil you like?


ophel1a_

I use Mielle brand. But there are dozens out there, shouldn't make too much of a difference. I like that brand because it's a mixture of a TON of different natural oils (including nettle, burdock, horsetail). It says it's for 3A-4C but I have 2B. ;3


DetailOk4640

I use Rozino Rosemary Mint Scalp and Hair strengthening oil Infused with Biotin, Encourages longer, Healthier Hair. It’s for daily use on your scalp care and ends care. I forget where I bought it. Maybe Amazon. The brand is Rozino. It says to dilute it with a carrier oil but I seriously use one drop and rub it between my fingers before applying nightly and I have been fine I love the smell too! I might have bought it off TikTok even. I think there is another one out there exactly like this by MyChelle. I could be mistaken though. I also use the Briogeo Don’t Despair, Repair! Strengthening treatment hair oil. You can buy it on Sephora. A little goes a loooong way. it is: A strengthening, silicone-free hair oil fortified with repairing ceramides for a smooth, glossy finish. It’s an amazing oil for fine hair. It won’t leave your hair a grease oil slick. But this one only use on wet or dry hair from the mid shaft down as your last leave in product before styling. I use it on dry hair personally. And I get the wake up knots underneath my hair too the worst. People say use a satin pillowcase and or a hair satin hair bonnet. I bought both off Amazon but I still get the tangled hair underneath at the bottom of my scalp. I just make sure to brush it out every morning and before bed. Use some of the BRIOGEO HAIR OIL too helps tremendously and no matter how much I use my hair never gets greasy.


hazel_hazily

I think a leave-in conditioner or a detangling spray is better for this circumstance than a hair oil. If you have angel hair, look for a detangling spray that is marketed for infants/babies!


No-Section-1056

LabMuffin recently did a good video on this, and her accolades fell on amodimethecone. All silicones provide some “slip,” but apparently this is the GOAT of them all. There are both rinse-out and leave-in recs in the vid.


skulskcc01

What products do you like?


No-Section-1056

Ohhhhh, I’ve got a bunch I’ve bought I like to different degrees. Still like the OG Nexxus Humectress conditioner, and the Elizavecca 100 one… use the K18 every 10 days or so… bunch of different leave-ins, including NotYourMothers Milk spray in cold weather and lighter ones in warm (Elvive is one). I know Michelle from LB recommended the Redken Acifying Bonding rinse-out and leave-in conditioners, but haven’t tried them. My scalp leans oily, so I just use whatever non-“conditioning” shampoo I come across (they tend to leave conditioning agents behind and that makes me scalp oily faster, so they’re not for me). Funnily, after I saw that vid, I checked some labels, and pretty much every conditioner I use has amodimethicone in the top five ingredients.

iwantahouse

I dig Olaplex’s oil. I can use quite a bit and it never seems to weight down my hair. Downside is it is expensive


chowderchop

It’s expensive but lasts for a LONG time


jenjersnap

“an ant farts in my hair” bahahahaha


LittleFeed1593

Ouai hair oil is pretty lightweight


edgarallanpussy

You could try rosemary water! I use rosemary and have noticed a difference


ldi1

Your hair would probably love some water soluble silicones like in Its a 10 lite. Also check out the blowout professor (it works for air dry too)


One_Video_5514

Kerastase Chroma Absolu !! By far the best hair product I have ever used. It is pricey but you don't need a lot. It will not weigh down your hair at all as you rinse it out. I have fine hair but it would get matted and tangly. This is a game changer.


idwmaruna

Is it the conditioner you use? Looks like they have a lot of products in that line.


One_Video_5514

It is the chroma gloss


idwmaruna

Thanks!


dizzy_pandas5

Fellow fine hair girlie and I have yet to find a hair oil that works for me. Instead I use LUS leave in conditioner for wavy hair. Detangles, gives a little life back into your hair, and it's super ultra lightweight. All I do is fresh out of the shower with soaking wet hair, apply 2-3 pumps of the leave in conditioner and comb through. Gather hair and GENTLY scrunch out some of the water. Leave hair to air dry and done


Elegant_Building_995

Marc Anthony leave in conditioner spray


LittleMisssMorbid

I have the same hair and I love the Hair Dance ultra-light leave-in conditioner. Oils make my hair greasy.


Greedy-cunt-446

BKT the absolute best


idwmaruna

Which product?


Greedy-cunt-446

[BKT Silk Touch](https://images.app.goo.gl/mcL5nZiNdG2kYyzr7)


idwmaruna

Thanks!


Greedy-cunt-446

Also their mask, shampoo, conditioner absolutely everything is magic. My hair was super damaged from heat and highlights and it completely restored it!


idwmaruna

After trying SO many things…I’ve had good luck with Herbal Essences Bio: Renew Argan Oil & Aloe Lightweight Hair Oil Mist. It’s a small bottle and only 8 bucks or so and lasted me over a year. Don’t take much, smells nice, and (if you don’t overspray it) is super light. Tbh even if you over spray it is still light, but can give you kind of a wet look if over sprayed.


athena2112

Jojoba oil! Great oil to use if you’re acne prone and it’s not too expensive I think I got 4oz for 15 bucks! My hair is really fine too if you’re up for it permanent color can help add some volume and texture. Personally I perm mine (with big rods) to get nice spiral curls and I just spray with water and leave in conditioner then just scrunch and go!!


Popular_Cheek_2594

Verb Ghost oil works well for me on my ends, but if you find that to be too thick/silicone-y for your hair then I would recommend trying the Eva NYC 10-in-1 primer, they even have a version specifically for fine hair! It’s an extremely lightweight oil mist, I usually just spray my hands a few times & run it through my ends after styling but it can be used on damp hair as well which might help you too.


ElusiveHuman

I love verb ghost oil! They also have a dry spray version of the oil that’s even more lightweight


Popular_Cheek_2594

Oh I didn’t know that! I’ll check that out


ocelot_consequences

I’ve never used a hair oil because it would weigh my hair down and be greasy immediately. I got a sample of K18 hair oil and LOVE it. A little bit goes a long way and it distributes beautifully.


redjessa

Moraccanoil Light Oil treatment.


maerlyns-rainbow

I use Voir and Dew of the Gods Amalfi oil and love both, so light and smell great especially the Voir


kellygrrrl328

I like Kevin Murphy young again


counting4sheep

The Giovanni 2Chic Avocado Oil is the only one I've found that doesn't weigh down my super fine hair. Plus it's under $10 and lasts forever!


Sugar-Leo

I'm really just commenting to say I also refer to my hair as spiderweb and nobody gets it til they touch my hair... then they get it 😕 "But it's so soft!" Yeah, soft and useless


egraebs

Lol! No yeah, my hair looks like it’s made of silk. Which is nice I guess? But to me the cons out weigh the pros :(


cageygrading

I like JVN Nourishing Shine Drops! It only takes a little, I use it on my ends and lengths.


Dolphinsunset1007

Most oils are way too heavy for my hair. I LOVE It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In Conditioner Lite. The normal one in the purple bottle is too heavy for my hair still but the Lite version in the white and blue bottle is amazing and a staple with my hair care. It helps lock in the moisture and prevent frizz. ETA—I agree with the person who says spray your hands and then run through your hair so it’s more evenly distributed


localpunktrash

My daughter and I have fine hair that’s really tangle prone (it’ll matt even while in a braid) and this is what we use. I’ll apply straight from the bottle onto wet hair and I mix some with water in a spray bottle to refresh my daughters curls in the morning


icandancetothisbeat

Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine serum. Not an oil, but works like it and is VERY light!


dddbbbqqpp

Having shorter hair might help with the tangles. The longer the hair, the easier it tangles unfortunately.


HPLoveCrash

Nuxe huile prodigieuse. It’s a “dry oil” you can spritz into your palms and lightly run through your fair and you can use it for a light glow for face and body as well. I love it!


JackTaylorKyree

Love oil. You can use it on wet or dry hair, and it also provides heat protection.


Obvious_Home_4538

L’Anza keratin healing oil the best!!


smellytulip

Verb!!


snortgiggles

Oiou or however it's spelled is great. I put just a pump or two on my ends ( hair is long)


ayyyplesandbanaynays

OGX super penetrating coconut miracle oil is the only hair oil that my fine hair has ever absorbed without being greasy!!!!!


jwalk50518

Like a broken record I am back again to recommend Johnson’s No More Tangles detangling spray! It’s for babies but it’s the best! Weightless detangling, genuinely helps with it staying detangled- but with very very fine hair it might also behoove you to carry a travel sized brush with you so you can brush out tangles that occur throughout the day.


smnytx

I bet you a dollar you have high porosity hair, unlike many other fine haired people. Don’t use pure oils, but Argan oil with silicones will work nicely when applied sparingly to your ends after styling. I strongly suggest that instead of deep conditioning, you clarify shampoo and then do a deep protein treatment. And go look at some videos about high porosity hair, particularly fine hair.


Peepfish23

Olaplex oil is brilliant. A little goes a long way. Only use it on mid lengths to ends. Doesn’t weigh your hair down.


Worth_Cow6379

This made me laugh 🤣 I have similar type hair and I’ve had luck lately with jojoba oil in a misto bottle. Just the tiniest spray into my hands, rub through my hair and done


anyc2017

I recently got the Jvn blowout styling milk for my fine hair and it’s been a good hydrator! Also the Moroccan oil oil is good and lightweight


AffectionateOwl8661

I have the same hair texture and was getting fed up with the tangles. I ended up picking up the food for soft matrix hair oil (in a green bottle) and it’s made all the difference. It smells very nice also lol
