A conditioning treatment using Lamellar water that gets to work in just 8 seconds.
How do you use L'Oréal Wonder Water?
Wonder Water is a rinse-out conditioning treatment applied only to the lengths of your hair that can be used up to three times per week. Using a zig-zag motion, apply one dose if you have fine to medium hair, or two to three for thick and curly, textured hair. Add an extra dose if your hair is very long.
Massage into your hair for eight seconds (as the name suggests) and then rinse, following with conditioner if needed. Then blow dry your hair for extra shiny results or use the L’Oréal Professionnel SteamPod 3.0 for an ultimate sleep look.

L'Oreal Wonder Water before and after
Despite only launching a matter of weeks ago, the product has already racked up hundreds of positive reviews. One online reviewer writes, "I was a bit dubious how something can work in 8 seconds, I don’t know what kind of wizardry is at work here but I really did make a massive difference after only that time! My hair feels smoother, softer and it’s shinier."
Another added, "My hair is definitely much smoother, stronger and shinier after using this product and also so much softer and easier to comb. I have long waist length coloured hair and this product worked perfectly for me and left no residue and did not weigh down my hair."
With those glowing reviews, we'll take three, please.
