Fine hair and perm-treated hair both need conditioning. They just can't afford to be flattened by it. They need lightweight conditioning that softens and smooths without taking the life out of your hair.

For fine hair, the wrong conditioner is almost as bad as no conditioner. Too rich, too heavy, or too much of it, and the volume disappears, the roots look flat, and the bounce that makes fine hair look its best is gone before you've even styled it. For perm-treated hair, it's a similar tension: the curl or wave needs softness and frizz control, but the treatment that created the texture cannot afford to be weighed down.

The Craft Curl System Conditioner is formulated to resolve exactly this. A lightweight conditioning base - built on cationic conditioning agents and a smoothing silicone complex - delivers the slip, softness, and frizz control that fine and perm-treated hair needs, without the residue or heaviness that collapses volume and bounce. Hydrolysed Wheat Protein strengthens and supports the feel of fuller, more resilient strands. Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract adds softness and a refreshed finish. Panthenol conditions from within.

The result is conditioned hair that still has movement: softer, smoother, and more manageable, without feeling over-treated or weighed down.

Curl System Conditioner works best in a 2-step lightweight routine

For softer, fuller-feeling, frizz-free hair that still has movement and bounce, pair this conditioner with the Craft Curl System Shampoo every wash day:

  • Step 1 - Cleanse: The Craft Curl System Shampoo gently removes daily buildup from fine or perm-treated hair without the heavy surfactant load that can disrupt curl pattern or flatten volume.
  • Step 2 - Condition: The Craft Curl System Conditioner smooths the cuticle, reduces frizz and static, and restores softness, with a lightweight finish that leaves hair conditioned, bouncy, and easy to style.

For nourished roots alongside lightweight hair care: Adding the BioScalp Advanced Scalp Tonic as a daily leave-in supports scalp health and follicle nourishment between washes without affecting hair weight or texture.

This routine is especially suitable for thin, fine, or perm-treated hair that needs softness and body without feeling over-conditioned.

Who This Is For

The Craft Curl System Conditioner is designed for two distinct hair types that share the same core conditioning challenge - needing softness and manageability without heaviness:

  • Fine or thin hair that needs lightweight conditioning to feel softer and more manageable without losing volume, bounce, or movement
  • Perm-treated, curl-enhanced, or wavy hair that needs frizz control and softness without the curl or texture being weighed down by a rich conditioning formula
  • Hair that is prone to frizz, static, or roughness between washes, particularly in humid conditions
  • Anyone who has found regular conditioners leave their hair limp, greasy at the roots, or lacking body after washing
  • Anyone using the Craft Curl System Shampoo who wants to complete the 2-step Curl System routine

Why Fine and Perm-Treated Hair Needs a Dedicated Conditioner

Standard conditioners are typically formulated for normal to dry hair, or hair that needs rich moisture replenishment and heavy cuticle sealing. For fine or perm-treated hair, this level of conditioning creates more problems than it solves. The fatty alcohols, heavy oils, and high concentrations of cationic agents that make a standard conditioner feel luxurious on thick hair coat fine strands with too much product, flattening the hair and making it look limp and greasy by mid-afternoon.

Perm-treated hair has an additional structural consideration. The permanent waving or curl-enhancing process rearranges the disulphide bonds within the hair shaft to create the new curl or wave pattern. A conditioner that is too rich or too occlusive can disrupt how the curl sits and dries, reducing the definition and bounce the service was designed to create.

The Craft Curl System Conditioner uses a calibrated lightweight conditioning approach, enough to meaningfully smooth and soften, not so much that it overwhelms fine or curl-enhanced hair. It is the difference between conditioning that helps and conditioning that hinders.

How It Works

  • Cetrimonium Chloride and Behentrimonium Chloride: Cationic conditioning agents that deposit onto the negatively charged hair surface, smoothing the cuticle, reducing friction, and improving detangling at a concentration calibrated for fine hair, so the conditioning effect is meaningful without being excessive.
  • Amodimethicone, Dimethiconol, Cyclomethicone, Dimethicone: A four-silicone smoothing complex that coats the hair with a lightweight, flexible film, filling surface irregularities, enhancing gloss and slip, and providing the frizz-controlling layer that fine and perm-treated hair needs without the weight of heavier conditioning ingredients.
  • Hydrolysed Wheat Protein: Partially penetrates the hair shaft to reinforce the internal structure of fine strands, improving elasticity, reducing breakage-prone brittleness, and supporting the feel of fuller, more resilient hair. For perm-treated hair, it helps maintain the structural integrity of processed strands and supports bounce and shape retention.
  • Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract (Jasminum officinale): Provides a soothing, lightweight softening effect on the hair surface, calming frizz and static without adding the heaviness of richer botanical oils. It also contributes to the signature fresh, floral scent of the Curl System range.
  • Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): Penetrates the hair shaft to improve moisture retention and elasticity from within, strengthening fine or chemically treated strands without depositing product on the surface in a way that affects weight or movement.
  • Lactic Acid: A gentle AHA that helps refine the surface pH of the hair after conditioning, encouraging the cuticle to lie flatter for a smoother, neater finish, particularly beneficial for perm-treated hair where cuticle alignment directly affects how the curl pattern settles and dries.
  • Cetyl Alcohol and Cetearyl Alcohol: Lightweight fatty alcohols that form the conditioning base of the formula, providing the creamy texture for easy application while contributing softness and slip without the heaviness of heavier emollients.

Key Ingredients

  • Cetrimonium Chloride, Behentrimonium Chloride: lightweight cuticle-smoothing conditioning agents
  • Amodimethicone, Dimethiconol, Cyclomethicone, Dimethicone: 4-silicone smoothing and frizz-control complex
  • Hydrolysed Wheat Protein: internal strengthening, fullness support, bounce retention
  • Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract: lightweight softening and frizz calming
  • Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): moisture, elasticity, and internal conditioning
  • Lactic Acid: surface pH refinement, cuticle smoothing
  • Cetyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Alcohol: lightweight conditioning base

The Craft Curl System Routine

The Curl System Conditioner is Step 2 in the Craft Curl System, a 2-step wash-day routine designed to cleanse and condition fine or perm-treated hair in sequence without over-loading it.

  • Step 1 - Craft Curl System Shampoo: Gently lifts away daily buildup, excess oil, and product residue from fine or perm-treated hair with a mild cleansing base, refreshing the scalp and hair without the heavy surfactant load that can disrupt curl pattern or flatten fine strands.
  • Step 2 - Craft Curl System Conditioner (this product): Applied through the mid-lengths and ends after shampooing, the conditioner smooths the cuticle, reduces frizz and static, and restores softness and bounce, completing the wash-day routine with a lightweight finish that leaves fine and curl-enhanced hair feeling conditioned, not coated.

Want both steps together? The Craft Curl System Shampoo and Conditioner Set includes both products - the complete lightweight routine in one.

For best results, use consistently after every wash as part of your regular routine.

How to Use

  1. Shampoo with the Craft Curl System Shampoo and rinse thoroughly.
  2. Apply the Curl System Conditioner through the mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the roots and scalp to maintain volume at the base.
  3. Work through gently with fingers or a wide-tooth comb for even coverage and to assist detangling.
  4. Leave for 1–3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly - a cool water rinse helps the cuticle lie flatter for a smoother finish and better-defined curl.
  5. For perm-treated hair, gently scrunch the hair upward while rinsing to encourage the curl pattern to re-form.
  6. Style as usual - diffuse or air-dry for best results on curl-enhanced hair.

Want to Add Scalp Care to Your Routine?

The Curl System takes care of the hair, but the scalp needs consistent nourishment too. Adding the BioScalp Advanced Scalp Tonic as a daily leave-in after washing delivers Biotin, Ginseng, Niacinamide, and soothing botanicals to the scalp throughout the day, supporting the follicle environment that your fine or perm-treated hair grows from.

What the right conditioner actually does for fine and perm-treated hair

From flat and frizzy to soft, smooth, and full of movement

Before: fine hair that looks limp and flat after conditioning, or perm-treated hair that feels rough and frizzy between washes but loses its bounce when conditioned with something too rich. After: hair that feels noticeably softer and smoother from the first use - frizz and static calmer, detangling easier, and the hair's natural movement and bounce maintained rather than weighed down. With consistent use as part of the 2-step Curl System routine, the improvement in softness, manageability, and frizz control builds with each wash.

Did You Know

Fine hair has a smaller diameter than normal or thick hair, which means there is less surface area for conditioning agents to deposit on before the hair becomes over-coated. This is why conditioning formulas designed for dry or thick hair so often make fine hair look flat: the concentration of conditioning ingredients relative to the surface area of each strand is simply too high. A conditioner formulated for fine hair needs to use a lower overall concentration of heavier conditioning agents and rely instead on lightweight actives, like silicones, proteins, and mild cationic agents, that smooth and strengthen without depositing a film that reduces volume and bounce. The Craft Curl System Conditioner is calibrated specifically with this balance in mind.

  • line drawing of thumbs up
    Supports a fuller-looking finish

    A conditioning formula specifically calibrated for fine and perm-treated hair - lightweight enough to maintain volume and bounce, effective enough to deliver real softness and frizz control. For fine hair that has previously lost body from over-conditioning, and for perm-treated hair that needs support without losing its texture, this is the balance most conditioners for fine hair fail to find.

    Hydrolysed Wheat Protein strengthens and adds resilience to fine or processed strands from the inside. Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract calms frizz and static at the surface with a lightweight botanical touch. Panthenol conditions from within. Together, these three actives deliver meaningful softness and improved manageability without the heaviness that standard conditioning agents produce on fine hair.

    Helps improve frizz and static

    The four-silicone smoothing complex - Amodimethicone, Dimethiconol, Cyclomethicone, and Dimethicone - provides a lightweight, flexible barrier on the hair surface that neutralises the static charge responsible for flyaways and smooths the raised cuticle surface that causes frizz. For perm-treated hair, this also helps the curl pattern settle more evenly as the hair dries, improving definition without the crunchiness of heavier anti-frizz treatments.

Lightweight Conditioning

Fine or perm-treated hair occupies a specific and often frustrating middle ground in conditioning: it needs the softness and frizz control that only a real conditioner can provide, but it cannot afford the weight that most conditioners carry. The Craft Curl System Conditioner resolves this by using cationic conditioning agents and a silicone smoothing complex at concentrations calibrated for fine and curl-enhanced hair, enough to meaningfully smooth the cuticle, reduce friction, and improve manageability, without depositing the residue that flattens roots and collapses volume. The lightweight fatty alcohol base ensures easy application and even distribution, so the hair is conditioned through the mid-lengths and ends without feeling heavy at the roots where volume matters most.

Wheat Protein & Jasmine

Hydrolysed Wheat Protein and Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract are the signature active ingredients in the Craft Curl System range, chosen for the specific and complementary roles they play in fine and perm-treated hair care. Hydrolysed Wheat Protein is partially small enough in molecular size to penetrate the hair shaft, where it supports the internal structure of fine or chemically processed strands, improving elasticity, reducing brittleness, and reinforcing the bounce and body that thin or perm-treated hair can lose over time. Jasmine Flower and Leaf Extract works at the surface, providing a lightweight soothing and softening effect that calms frizz and flyaways without adding the weight of heavier botanical oils. Together, they address fine and perm-treated hair's two most consistent challenges - fragility and frizz - in a formula light enough to actually help both.

Frizz Control Without Weight

Frizz in fine and perm-treated hair is caused by the same mechanism: a raised, irregular cuticle surface that allows moisture from the surrounding air to enter the shaft unevenly, causing the hair to swell and expand in unpredictable directions. The solution is cuticle smoothing, and the Craft Curl System Conditioner provides it through the four-silicone complex and Lactic Acid surface refinement, both of which encourage the cuticle to lie flatter and more uniformly. The result is hair that dries more smoothly, resists humidity better, and requires significantly less effort to style to a polished, frizz-free finish without the heavy anti-frizz products that would weigh fine strands down or disrupt the natural curl pattern of perm-treated hair.

Don't take our word for it

I don't always use conditioner because my hair gets flat so easily, but this one felt light enough for my fine hair. It helped soften the ends and made my hair look smoother without losing too much bounce. My hair felt easier to manage after drying.

This conditioner made it feel softer and neater without leaving any heavy residue. It helped with smoothness while still keeping my hair feeling light.

Justin, 39, Thin Hair with Static

As I was looking for a conditioner that would smooth it out a little for my permed hair. This conditioner helped reduce the dry, rough feel and made my hair look more defined and polished. It felt softer but still kept some body.
