Our Take
Concentrated protein drops that can be mixed into any Bouclème product to add a targeted protein boost to your existing routine. A few drops added to your conditioner or styler strengthens the hair structure, improves elasticity, and helps curls spring back rather than stretch. Ideal for high-porosity hair that loses protein quickly, or after bleaching, colouring, or heat damage. Because it's an additive rather than a standalone product, you control the dose — start with 2–3 drops and adjust based on your hair's response. Protein-sensitive hair types should use cautiously.

How to Use
Add a small amount (start with a pea-sized squeeze) to your conditioner, deep treatment, or styler before applying. Mix well in the palm of your hand. Use fortnightly or when hair feels limp, overly stretchy, or lacking definition — signs that your hair may benefit from more protein. Avoid overuse on hair that is already protein-sensitive.
