Leaves hair feeling sticky and greasy

i was advised by the Aveda team to buy the INVATI set of shampoo, conditioner & scalp serum for my fine thin hair. I was using faith in nature but wanted to switch to a better quality shampoo with natural ingredients. The shampoo and condtioner are ok, not amazing, but hoping they help with my fine hair. This serum however is awful and leaves my hair so greasy, applying 16 pumps daily is imposssible! Surely it has been designed for flat thin hair so why would it be so heavy. I'm gutted to have wasted my money on the larger bottle that i will no longer use.

Hugely disappointing

I bought this as part of the invati light set. I have been using invati products for a few months now so feel i have given them a fair go. For reference, I am a 34 year old male with quite serious thinning hair. Since trying this new serum after they discontinued the male only range, I felt this has dramatically accelerated my hair loss. I have been using the serum daily as recommended and washing 2-3 times a week using the invati products. I feel these products are intentionally vague in their marketing as they are marketed as helping thinning hair but the small print mentions "due to breakage" which is probably not the main reason why people are buying this. Im so disappointed in the products especially for the price and that i have given them a good go for around 3 months. Don't bother, go and see a specialist. This will do nothing
