Product Of The Week: Olaplex No.4 Fine Bond Maintenance Shampoo & No.5 Fine Bond Maintenance Conditioner

Olaplex No.4 Fine Bond Maintenance Shampoo and No.5 Fine Bond Maintenance Conditioner are like strength training for your hair. We mean it. They help repair the tiny structural links that keep hair resilient, especially useful for our fine hair as the delicate texture often feels and looks meh, loses volume quickly and can become fragile from heat styling, colour treatments and everyday wear.

Different from heavy-duty products that hydrate and soften but typically weigh our hair down, this duo helps repair our hair from the inside out without the sad, limp-locks factor. Brand-patented Bond Building Technology helps repair damaged disulfide bonds—the internal connections responsible for hair strength. Flexible polymers help create lift and volume at the roots, while low molecular weight hyaluronic acid delivers lightweight hydration so our hair feel soft instead of flat. The hydra-balancing matrix cleanses away buildup while keeping our hair balanced.

The conditioner continues the work with the same bond-building technology, reinforcing weakened areas while improving softness, detangling and manageability. Flexible polymers add body, while hyaluronic acid helps keep our hair hydrated and touchably smooth without all the extra weight. 

And you can use both daily without overdoing it. Simply massage No.4 into wet hair, focusing on the scalp and roots, then rinse. Follow with No.5 through the mid-lengths and ends, letting it sit briefly before rinsing. On days when we want a little extra conditioning, we keep in on for 60 seconds before washing it out. And the added bonus: both haircare products are vegan, dermatologist tested and colour safe.
