Our Take

A reparative leave-in styling cream that controls frizz for up to 72 hours, speeds up blow-dry time, and adds moisture. One of Olaplex's most popular retail products and a staple for curlies who use heat. It contains silicones, which is why it delivers such effective frizz control — the trade-off is that it's a modified-method product. Apply to damp hair after conditioning, before any other styling products. Works particularly well for medium-hold styles without crunchiness.
