The product

Luscious, silky and totally frizz-free strands are the goal, right? But it's kind of a universal truth that getting your tresses to actually hit that brief is basically impossible. 

That was of course until this incredibly reparative, game-changing mask came onto the scene. Let us have the honour of introducing the L’Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular Mask. Seemingly designed by the hair gods themselves, this strand-saving solution impressively works for all hair types. But the common theme for all? Damage. 

Yep, it's a real downer when you've worked so hard at creating the perfect colour, only for the health of your hair to go, well, away. But what actually happens to your strands when they're damaged? Well, we're not scientists, but the molecular structure of the strands are compromised (never a good place to be). Developed to plump up and bolster your strands from its core, the mask is infused with a peptide-rich bonder and five amino acids.  

So, if your strands are calling for a damage-rewinding reset, then you've got to hear what our members said our the nourishing mask...  

The panel

BEAUTYcrew sent the L'Oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular Mask to a panel of women 25 and older looking to combat damage.

The lowdown

The luxe, thick consistency: Trying to liberally apply a watery, thin mask is basically impossible. So, when our REVIEWcrew members found that this easy-to-scoop mask came in an ultra-luxe thick consistency that spread effortlessly across their strands, they were obsessed. Call it a placebo or call it a magic mask but something about the consistency really does feel like it's making all the difference. 

The smoothing, strengthening benefits: When it comes to masks, sleek, glossy and most importantly repaired locks are what you're looking for, right? Well, thanks to L’Oréal Professionnel our members were able to unwind years of damage through the strand-replumping formula. Our members might not have been able to physically see it, but don't worry, they could definitely feel how this mask works at a molecular layer to rejuvenate and refresh their tresses. 

The lingering scent: We ask you this, is there a better feeling than getting a whiff of your strands after wash day? Well only if they smell amazing, duh. Well, every day can be a good day when you catch the musky, woody notes of this mask in the breeze. Our members raved about how the strong scent from the pot dissipated to a subtle scent in their strands.

Absolutely thrilled with the L’Oréal Professional Absolut Repair Molecular Mask! I've been on a quest for the perfect hair treatment, and I think I finally found it! This mask has completely transformed my hair. After just a few uses, my hair feels incredibly soft and look so much shinier. The texture is rich yet doesn’t weigh my hair down at all. I love how it penetrates deeply, leaving my hair feeling nourished and revitalised. It’s perfect for my colour-treated hair and I’ve noticed significantly less breakage since I started using it. Plus, the delightful scent makes my hair feel luxurious after every wash! Applying it is a breeze, and it rinses out easily, which is a huge plus. I can't recommend this product enough for anyone looking to restore their hair's health and vitality. It’s become an essential part of my hair care routine, and I’m so glad I decided to try it!

I’m a huge fan of the L'Oréal Professional Absolut Repair Molecular Mask! This hair mask has levelled up my weekly wash-day by making it feel like a spa treatment! I’ve been using the hair mask in place of conditioner over the past few weeks and my hair is feeling the softest, strongest, and healthiest it has ever been! It’s super easy to pop the mask on with its nice, thick consistency that glides over every strand, leaving it for a few minutes to work it’s magic while I continue with my shower routine. I feel the mask instantly detangles my hair and gives it a suppleness like no other. It also doesn’t weigh my hair down like previous hair masks I’ve tried in the past, instead my hair is left feeling soft and bouncy every time! The scent of this hair mask is also absolutely divine! It’s a lovely woody and floral scent that lingers on my hair for days - I love it! It’s the perfect cherry on top. Will continue to use, repurchase and recommended to all - this hair mask is a winner to me!

Since receiving the product, I have used the L'Oréal Professional Absolut Repair Molecular Mask every time I have washed my hair and I can’t get enough! Firstly, it smells divine, and the scent doesn’t fade away once your hair is dry, it stays, making my hair smell so good! The mask has a rich, creamy consistency that spreads easily through the hair. A little goes a long way, making it easy to distribute evenly from mid-lengths to ends. After using the mask, my normally very dry and damaged hair instantly feels softer and more manageable. It effectively detangles (like I can actually run my fingers through my hair!) reduces frizz, and makes styling easier. With regular use, I noticed improved elasticity and shine, and my hair feels healthier overall. This mask is a standout choice for anyone with damaged hair. Its effective formula delivers on its promises, making it a worthwhile addition to any hair care routine. It’s definitely a staple in my hair routine now!
