The 250ml size is the perfect everyday format - easy to keep in the shower and a great way to try the formula on your curls.

What It Does

• Hydrates and softens - rich, multi-action moisture that leaves coils, curls and waves supple, soft and bouncy
• Melts away tangles - a high-slip, butter-soft cream for instant, easier detangling with less tug
• Defines curls, coils and waves - helps bring out your natural pattern at every porosity level
• Helps control frizz and static - smooths the look of the cuticle for more defined curls, even in humidity
• Locks in lasting hydration - Hydra-Define technology helps seal moisture in so curls stay hydrated for days
• Supports stronger-looking curls - patented Bond Shaper technology helps curls look and feel stronger and more resilient
• Used together with No.4 Curl Shampoo, OLAPLEX reports up to 50% less frizz even in humidity
• Gentle enough for every wash day; suitable for all curl types and textures

No.5 Curl vs the Original No.5 - Which Conditioner?

Both are OLAPLEX conditioners, but they are built for different goals. Choose the one that matches your hair.

If you wear your hair curly and want definition with rich moisture, choose No.5 Curl. For an everyday conditioner for any hair type, the original No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner is the classic pick.

Bond Shaper Technology

No.5 Curl is built on patented OLAPLEX Bond Shaper technology, featuring the hero active sh-Oligopeptide-281, paired with a Hydra-Define moisture complex. Rather than simply coating the surface, the technology works with the hair to help reinforce the look and feel of its bonds, while Hydra-Define helps seal the look of the cuticle to lock moisture in - so curls look stronger, more defined and stay hydrated longer.

How it shapes and hydrates your curls

• Shapes and defines - helps curls, coils and waves fall into a more even, defined pattern from root to tip.
• Hydra-Define moisture - helps seal the look of the cuticle so hydration stays locked in and curls look less dry through the day.
• Frizz and static control - smooths the look of the cuticle surface for less fuzz and fewer flyaways, even in humidity.
