K18 Molecular Repair Hair Oil

A weightless, silicone-free oil that strengthens, repairs damage and reduces frizz in one action.

This biotech-engineered weightless oil works on all hair types to strengthen, repair damage, improve shine and reduce frizz at two levels of the hair fiber.

After using molecular hair repair oil, subjects experienced amazing results:

  • Clinically proven damage repair
  • 24 hour frizz control
  • 104% more shine
  • 78% reduction in frizz
  • heat protection up to 232°C

This strengthening, smoothing oil fights frizz on two levels for immediate and lasting results.

The hair surface is immediately smoothed to reduce fly-away strands, split ends and frizz. This is done using natural oils like avocado and sunflower oil, as well as hemisqualane and squalane. Hair is nourished, colour is enhanced, shine is improved, and the hair now has heat protection up to 232°C.

Thanks to the K18Peptide™ present in the oil, deeper levels of damage in the hair fiber is repaired. This damage causes frizz, so repairing and strengthening damage at the innermost layer of the hair eliminates frizz as well. This long–term solution means that frizz is also much less likely to form, so happy hair days are in the future.

This silicone-free oil fights frizz from the innermost layers of the fiber to the surface of the hair, solving frizz immediately and long term.

  • Reverses frizz-causing damage: Damaged hair is more susceptible to frizz, so repairing it at a molecular level also reverses frizz
  • Reduces frizz & fly-away strands: Natural oils are absorbed on the surface of the hair to smooth the cuticle and soften without weighing hair down, offering immediate relief from the effects of frizz
  • Enhances shine & colour vibrancy: Healthy, shiny, nourished hair reflects more light and boosts colour dimension
  • Delivers heat protection: Prevent further frizz-causing damage and pair this oil with a hot styling tool up to 232°C

Apply to damp, towel-dried hair before styling, or on dry hair as a finisher. It is a highly concentrated formula, so you should start with 1-3 drops and build as needed. Each bottle contains 900 drops of oil, so one bottle can last you a long time if you are conservative with the amounts you apply. The good thing is that you never get the impression you need more than 1-3 drops as it is a highly spreadable formula that easily works itself into an entire head of hair. There is no greasy feeling on the hair after an application.

Use on damp hair for: strengthening benefits from the K18Peptide™, and to reduce frizz during air-drying or styling

Use on dry hair to: smooth frizz and fly-aways strands, and to use as a finisher to add shine
