- For a pre-shampoo treatment: Apply 1 to 2 capfuls of L’Huile de Leonor Greyl to your dry length and ends and evenly distribute using a natural bristle brush. Leave on for at least 10 minutes or overnight before shampooing.
- For protection from the sun and chlorinated water: Apply to dry hair as previously described and reapply as needed.
- The oil might solidify in cool temperatures. If that happens, simply run warm water over the closed bottle until the product liquifies.
Pro Tip: Use as a leave-in styling product for very dry or frizzy hair. Pour 3 drops into your palm, emulsify and run the brush lightly over your palm before brushing hair.

The idea for L’Huile de Leonor Greyl, formerly known as L’Huile de Palme, was born during a Greyl family trip to the French West Indies in the 1970s. Finding himself stranded during a hurricane, Jean-Marie Greyl noticed that the rain streamed down the leaves of palm trees without really penetrating them. The plant’s incredible properties inspired him to use its oil in a pre-shampoo treatment that could protect hair by forming a waterproof film around each strand. Applied on the beach between swims, in salons as pre-color protection, or at home to repair hair, this oil quickly became a cult favorite. In 2013, palm oil was removed from the formula in favor of two new sustainably-sourced ingredients: coconut and mongongo oil.

5 Stars! I use it every chance I can everywhere I can. This is a lifesaver during a pandemic for those of us who haven’t gotten a chance for a cut in a while and really helps w/hair that has been sun drenched and previously over processed! Love it. Totally worth every penny!

This pre-poo makes my hair shine so much that—despite having many samples left—I bought a full size bottle the same day I tried it to ensure I would not run out. My dry ends feel as soft as my baby hairs after using this, and they also smell wonderful. (My dog follows me around when using this or shortly thereafter solely to sniff my hair.) While warming the bottle adds a bit of time, it also takes me back to heating oil tubes with my mom as a kid and generally makes me smile.

Best hair treatment ever, better than olaplex. Been using olaplex at home system #3 forever but this hair oil is magic!

Quite possibly the most intoxicating smell for a hair care product. It has made my scalp and hair feel so much more hydrated. I love it.

Amazing product. My curly and prone to freezings hair looks like it’s never looked before after using this product. I also use Leonor Greyl shampoo and conditioner. My hair is manageable and wavy when simply air dried. Love this line!

Excellent product for giving my hair extra TLC. Also use a little on ends after styling for added frizz control and nourishment. Smells amazing yet not overpowering, like all the products in the line.

This oil smells amazing but does not live up to my expectations. I’ve been using it for 3 months and see no difference in my hair. Also, it’s a pain to have to warm it/melt it every time I use it. I cannot justify paying this much for an oil just because it smells good.
