Olaplex Nº.10 Curl Defining Gel 200 mL — Frizz-Smoothing, Moisturizing Medium Hold for Curly, Coily & Wavy Hair

Olaplex Nº.10 Bond Shaper™ Curl Defining Gel is a humidity-resistant styling gel that defines, hydrates and smooths curls, waves and coils with flexible, medium hold and no crunchy residue.

If you want bouncy, touchable curls that resist frizz and keep their shape, Nº.10 combines Olaplex’s bond-building science with curl-friendly conditioning agents to strengthen hair while you style. The formula offers slip for detangling, medium hold for shape, and moisture to reduce breakage and flyaways — all without the stiff feel of traditional gels.

How does this gel reduce frizz and keep curls defined?

Nº.10 uses a mix of humidity-resistant polymers and Olaplex’s patented bond technology to protect curl structure and limit environmental moisture disruption. The result is improved curl formation and reduced fuzziness even in damp conditions.

• Flexible polymers create a curl-locking barrier against humidity
• Bond-rebuilding actives strengthen internal hair structure
• Lightweight conditioning agents smooth cuticles for shine and slip

Will it weigh my hair down or leave residue?

The gel is formulated for touchable, non-crunchy results: it gives medium hold while rinsing and styling without leaving visible buildup. You’ll get shape and definition with natural movement and an easy-to-touch finish.

• Medium, flexible hold keeps shape without stiffness
• Designed to absorb into the hair without film or flaking
• Suitable for layering under or over creams and oils

How does Nº.10 care for hair health during styling?

Beyond shaping, Nº.10 contains bond-supporting molecules plus nourishing botanicals that help fortify fragile curls and reduce breakage during styling and heat use. It also provides thermal protection to shield strands when using hot tools.

• Bond-building technology helps rebuild and reinforce hair structure
• Coconut-avocado milk delivers fatty acids and vitamins for softness
• Heat protection helps guard against styling damage up to high temperatures

How should I use it for best curl definition and long-lasting hold?

Apply to damp, detangled hair from roots to ends, scrunch or set with fingers, and either air dry or diffuse for faster results. For extra definition, pair with a defining cream or use a little more gel on targeted sections.

• Work a small amount through damp hair, adjust quantity by thickness
• Scrunch to encourage curl formation or use a diffuser on low heat
• Layer with leave-in conditioners or light oils if additional moisture is needed

Who is this for: Olaplex Nº.10 Bond Shaper™ Curl Defining Gel is intended for people with wavy, curly, or coily hair who want defined, touchable curls with humidity resistance and reduced breakage. It’s suitable for all curl patterns seeking medium, flexible hold, added slip for detangling, and a formula that supports hair strength during styling.
