Bonding Oil

Product Description

Many people steer clear of oils in their hair routine, worried they’ll weigh down curls or cause build-up. Natural oils can be too heavy, and silicone-based ones often aren't curly girl-friendly, leaving behind residue over time. Sound familiar? That’s exactly why we created our game-changing Bonding Oil for curly hair. Powered by PlantSilk™, a cutting-edge blend of plant-derived esters, this lightweight formula is formulated to outperform silicones without the heaviness of raw oils. Designed to target damaged hair, seal cuticles and make curls feel softer and smoother in seconds. Bonding Oil for hair is also proven to boost shine by up to 67%**
**Based on third party testing on dark curly hair

Who is it for? All Curl and Texture Types
Best for? Weak, Damaged Curls
Frequency Every Wash Day & As Desired

Reviews

Perfect daily oil for dry curly hair

"I bought the Bonding Oil mainly for my daughter, who is almost 9 years old and has very curly, extremely dry hair. Since my hair type is completely different, I honestly had forgotten products like this even existed — but now it has become part of our daily routine. I use a very small amount every morning while styling her hair for school, and it makes such a big difference. Her curls look soft, healthy, and shiny instead of dry and dull. It also helps keep her hair looking neat and beautiful throughout the school day without feeling greasy or heavy. A little goes a long way, and it has truly helped bring life back to her curls."

— Laura M. (5/5)

Amazing product!

Q&A

I use this to break the cast when I wear my hair curly. I also like to straighten + curl iron my hair for a smoother look. Can this be used to seal the curls along with preventing it from frizzing/puffing out?
Hi Carmen, Thanks for your question. Yes! Curlsmith Bonding Oil works great for breaking cast and can also be used on styled curls or straightened hair. It helps smooth strands, reduce frizz, and add shine, so it’s perfect for sealing your curls or polished styles without weighing your hair down. Let us know if you have additional questions. Thanks, Curlsmith
Can this product be used as a light protein oil to use on low porosity hair to make sure I can keep the strength and moisture balance
Hi there, Thanks for reaching out to us. Our Bonding Oil is primarily formulated to provide intense hydration and nourishment to the hair, promoting smoothness, shine, and overall hair health. We recommend incorporating a dedicated light protein treatment into your hair care routine to ensure optimal balance. You can use the Bonding Oil in conjunction with a protein treatment to provide both moisture and strength to your hair. Alternating between protein and moisture treatments can help maintain the health and integrity of your low porosity hair. If you have additional questions. Please reach out to us at hello@curlsmith.com and our team will be able to help you. Thanks, Curlsmith

I'm a male that keeps curly short hair with a fade at the side. Am I supposed to use this by itself to shape my curls? I tried and it does nothing (i have crazy bed-hair and its hard to shape). I put it on by itself and it did nothing (yes i put a lot of oil)
Hi! This is a finishing Oil, to help define your curls you may be best with a gel styling product
How often should you use the oil? Could it be used everyday?
You can use daily without the risk of protein overload!
Is this oil color safe? I have silver highlights.
Yes it is, but if you have very light cool-tone highlights we recommend testing it in a small area first to make sure it doesn't clash with the color.
The instructions say to only use on dry hair. Is it bad for your hair to use if it is still damp?
You can oil when your hair is damp or dry, but your hair and scalp have to be clean, or the oil won't have a chance to be absorbed. Applying it on dry hair is best, as the larger molecules may not penetrate the shaft of wet hair as well it can dry hair.
Can you use this with the oil and cream leave in conditioner at the same time. If so do I use the oil first or vise versa?
You can use along side any leave in conditioner. Apply once your hair is 100% dry
