Updated November 3, 2026

Weightless silk-protein essence for smooth, detangled hair; protein buildup can weigh strands down.

What the community says

A silicone-heavy hair essence that smooths, detangles, and adds shine without a greasy afterfeel. Best on straight hair when you use only a drop or half-pump. Protein-rich ingredients can make some hair feel heavy.
