Analysis: Hot Six Oil has a light, somewhat flower-y scent that does not linger. The oil dispenses easily due to the specially designed cap which allows you to pour the oil without worry of excess spillage. It has a very smooth and even texture and disperses throughout the hair evenly and easily. It also does not leave your hands or clothes oily after use because it does not leave behind residue and does not run.
The Verdict: I purchased this oil during a severe dry-spell I experienced after a change in climate, my initial plan for this oil was to use it as a hot oil treatment but due to its overall effectiveness I have used it as a sealant and pre-poo treatment as well. I love that this oil is 98% natural (my guess) and it contains oils that have a high ceramide content which aids in sealing the hair cuticle. Since using this oil I have noticed a change in the overall look and feel of my strands; it is shinier, softer, tangles less and I have seen a vast reduction in split ends. I did not use this oil in two of my recent wash sessions ( I pre-poo'ed with protein) and I noticed that although my hair was extremely soft it lacked the shine I usually experience when I use Hot Six and also seemed to dry out faster in-between shampoo sessions. I highly recommend this product for anyone who is experiencing severe dryness, has a problem with splitting and breaking ends, or who simply wants to pamper their tresses. Hot Six Oil is a great product and a staple in my hair regimen.
