These days hair serum has become a vital part of our hair care routine. We all wish for long, healthy and gorgeous tresses and hair serum plays an important role in fulfilling that wish. Hair serum is basically a hair care solution that keeps our hair soft and shiny and prevents frizz and tangles. Hair serum is typically applied on clean wet hair or dry hair. Hair serums are usually non sticky in nature. Hair serums generally work by forming a thin layer on each hair strand, protection it from dirt.
