Length Oil Drop

A lightweight ends oil made for lightened and highlighted hair in South African climates. Use a few drops on mid-lengths and ends for softness and shine.

Who Length Oil Drop is made for

Length Oil Drop is designed for anyone with highlighted, bleached or naturally fair hair who struggles with dry, fraying or rough ends. It suits hair that’s been lightened and needs help to keep moisture in, especially on the mid-lengths and ends where breakage shows first. It’s also a small daily habit that fits South African weather, whether you’re fighting the dry Highveld air, coastal wind or the static and split ends that come with cold Joburg mornings.

This oil fits best into routines for people who heat style, tie up hair or swim. If your ends feel stringy, look matte or snag during brushing, you’ll notice the comfort quickly. It works for fine to medium hair types and is light enough that, used properly, it won’t weigh strands down or leave a greasy finish.

How to use Length Oil Drop for best results

Always start with clean, towel-dried or completely dry hair. Place 2 to 4 drops of Length Oil Drop in the palm of your hand (for longer or thicker hair, use the higher end of that range). Rub your palms together to warm the oil slightly, then work it gently through the very ends and mid-lengths. Never apply directly to the scalp, focus on the driest, most fragile parts.

If you’re using heat tools, apply after washing, then style as usual. On dry air days, use mid-morning or after lunch to tame static, especially if you notice flyaways. For a night habit, try a silk wrap or pillowcase and smooth a drop through the ends before bed.

  • 2 to 4 drops per use, depending on hair thickness and length
  • Warm oil in palm before applying
  • Use on mid-lengths and ends only
  • Never apply to scalp or roots
  • Repeat after swimming or sun exposure if needed

What to expect in the first few weeks

With steady use, expect your bleached or lightened ends to feel less rough and look healthier in natural light. The oil seals the cuticle, helping to keep moisture in and reduce visible split ends. On very porous hair, you might need an extra drop now and then, especially during dry Highveld winters or after time in sun and wind.

Some people make the small mistake of using too much or forgetting to warm the oil first, so it sits on the hair without soaking in properly. Dont rush, take a few seconds to spread and work it through. Using it too close to the scalp can flatten volume or make hair look limp, so always keep to the lower half of your hair.

How Length Oil Drop works in your routine

Length Oil Drop pairs naturally with our Brighten Care Set for regular wash and tone, and fits between washes when ends start to feel dry. After using Bond Soft Serum on damp hair for post-salon bond repair, use this oil to lock in mid-length softness. For those who gloss with Cool Tone Gloss or touch up with Violet Soft Rinse, Length Oil Drop is the final step for shine.

If you spend time outdoors, Sun Shield Mist before midday and Length Oil Drop after sun or wind help protect colour and texture. Travelling? Our Travel Care Trio includes a mini ends oil for holidays or the gym. It’s a small step that keeps salon-fresh hair feeling soft between appointments.
