  • Strengthens & Conditions: Thanks to Olaplex’s unique Bond Building Technology®, this gel works on a molecular level to strengthen and condition your curls, making detangling easier and reducing breakage.

How to Use It

Achieve your best curls by following these simple steps:
  1. Apply to Wet Hair: Start with clean, wet hair. Dispense a small amount of the gel and distribute it evenly throughout your hair in sections.
  2. Scrunch and Style: Use an upward scrunching motion to define your curls or use your preferred curl-styling technique.
  3. Dry and Set: Let your curls air dry or use a diffuser. Once dry, gently scrunch out any curl cast for frizz-free, touchable curls.
For added shine, follow up with a few drops of Olaplex Nº.7 Bonding Oil to smooth and define.
