Extra Strength Damage Remedy + Coconut Miracle Oil Penetrating Oil — Reddit Reviews
by OGX
Updated November 10, 2026
Silicone-rich coconut oil smooths frizz and dry ends; pre-wash favorite, easy to overdo.
What the community says
A silicone-heavy blend with coconut and argan oils for pre-wash protection or smoothing tiny amounts over ends. Best on dry, frizz-prone lengths, including fine hair. The fragrance is loud, and overapplication can leave oily strands requiring multiple shampoos.
