If there is one feeling that I truly love, it is the feeling when I run my fingers through freshly washed and sun dried hair. It feels so smooth and luxurious!Well, I do tell myself that I am going to do everything I can to keep my hair last that way. Sometimes life happens and I get side-tracked. If you are someone who is used to styling tools, it is important to use a hair serum to keep your hair nourished and soft. The good news is that we have some of the best chemical free hair serums in India and there is no bad news!
Why do you need a hair serum?
A good chemical free hair serum won’t just tame frizz. It will also add volume, shine and makes your hair feel smoother. A good hair serum also keeps split ends and hair fall at bay. When you are choosing a hair serum consider the hair troubles you want to fix and choose a hair serum accordingly.
Some of the things a hair serum does is:
- Tame a frizz
- Reduce hair-fall
- Reduce split-ends
- Provide nourishment to hair
- Hydrate your hair
Consider your hair type before you select a hair serum
Once you know what you are looking to fix, you need to determine your hair type before choosing a serum. This is purely because different hair types take their own time to fix a potential hair problem. For example; if you have dry hair, you may need a hair serum which is higher on hydration levels. With oily hair, you may want to settle for a hair mist instead of a serm. A hair mist will work essentially the same way as a serum, but it works at reducing the oiliness. For dry and brittle hair, you may need a leave in conditioner that works its magic on your hair.
To help you pick the right product, I’ve put together a list of the best chemical free hair serums in India.

WOW is a relatively new brand in beauty and skin care. I have recently placed an order for their shampoo and conditioner after reading the rave reviews it has received.

Hi Prathibha, I have been following your blog for sometime now and it has always given me some new info. This list is really good. I suffer form frizz and tangles, so do these help with tangles too? I tried Mamaearth Onion Serum, it reduced tangles to some extent but not completely. Also, is Khadi one silicone-free? Most of the Khadi products that I have used don’t have complete ingredients list, how about this one? Sorry for so many questions.
Pratibha says
Hey Neha,
Thanks for stopping by, answering your queries, one by one:
1. Do you have frizz and tangles all year round or is it seasonal? Apart from a hair serum, have you tried using the Onion Hair Mask from Mamaearth? If used in together, it may reduce the frizz. I love the Mango Butter Mask from Juicy Chemistry too. It’s brilliant. You really need just a bit to tame your hair before you wash it.
2. Do you use drying tools or is your hair chemically treated? That can be one of the underlying factors for frizzy hair.
3. Khadi did not disclose the complete ingredient list, I have included it because of the reviews on Amazon.
Neha says
Hey Pratibha, thanks for the reply. Frizz used to be seasonal, but became year long thing in Bangalore’s weather.
I tried Mamaearth’s hair masks (Argan and Onion) but somehow it didn’t work for me. Surprisingly Mamaearth onion conditioner works for me.Looking for a good serum to couple with this conditioner. I will definitely try Juicy Chemistry hair mask.
I don’t use any heat tools, it has been more than 1.5 years since I last coloured my hair, so not sure if this is causing it.
Roshan Radhakrishnan says
oh, I so related to ‘does your hair have a mind of its own?” 😀
Literally, my hair always looks like I placed my finger in an electric socket…
Will check out these names and see if any can save me
Pratibha says
haha! Try the Juicy Chemistry one, makes your hair look tame! Promise!
Gunjan Upadhyay says
Agree, a good and chemical free hair serum can do wonders to beauty the hai making them smooth yet managable. I have used mamaearth but haven’t used WOW will surely try soon
Pratibha says
I’d recommend Juicy Chemistry too! You need just a bit and it lasts really long!
Poonam says
I have recently bought Mamaearths hair serum. I really hope it works on my postpartum hair loss.
Pratibha says
I hope you like it! But you also will need to follow a hair care regime to ensure the hair loss lessens.
