- 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.

This was my first time trying anything from LG and L’huile De Leonor Greyl and I must say this pre-shampoo treatment oil was a GREAT introduction! I was gifted by L’huile De Leonor Greyl USA to try their Pre-Shampoo Oil Treatment for dry hair and I loved it! This oil did a wonderful job of rejuvenating my hair and giving it hydration before I shampooing. My hair looked healthy and moisturized after washing, and when I gave myself a blow out, my hair looked so shiny and full! I also really loved the scent as well! It was very pleasant without being too overbearing. This oil worked great for my hair and it will continue to be the first step in my wash routine!

I just recently tried this after hearing many great things about it and it did not disappoint! First of all it smells great! Very luxurious and calming. It left my hair feeling very soft and smooth. I plan on leaving it overnight the next time I use. Gifted by Leonor Greyl.

As someone with colored treated hair, my hair really needed extra hydration and products that would help restore it. One thing that I loved about this pre-shampoo treatment is that the ingredients used are naturally hydrating and so beneficial for the hair so I love adding a product that truly helps to restore my hair.
