Ghost Oil — Reddit Reviews
by Verb
Updated November 10, 2026
Silicone-rich finishing serum smooths fine hair, controls frizz, and adds shine; overapplication flattens.
What the community says
A silicone-heavy finishing serum for damp ends, blowouts, and scrunching out gel casts. Fine, wavy, and easily tangled hair gets slip and shine without the usual oiliness, though one extra pump can leave strands limp, tacky, or greasy.
