The Difference Between Nº.5 and Nº.8

Key Takeaways

  • You can use a conditioner daily, while a moisture mask should be used weekly.
  • Nº.5 is a hydrating conditioner, while Nº.8 is a highly concentrated moisturizing mask.
  • You can use Nº.5 every wash cycle. Use Nº.8 weekly in place of conditioner.

What’s The Difference Between Nº.5 Bond Maintenance® Conditioner and Nº.8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask?

OLAPLEX® Nº.5 and Nº.8 both moisturize and repair hair, but they are two completely different products. Just like skincare has its daily serums and moisturizers, so does your hair. We all know how important moisturizing is for skin; now it’s time to read up on moisture’s importance in your haircare routine.

Hair Mask vs. Conditioner: What’s the Difference?

Before diving into the differences between Nº.5 and Nº.8, it’s important to understand what these products are at their core: a conditioner and a moisture mask. You can typically use a conditioner each day after each wash cycle, while you should only use a moisturizing mask once a week or as needed. Moisturizing masks can provide a more intensive treatment on dry hair.


What Is No.5?

Nº.5 Bond Maintenance® Conditioner provides a surge of moisture, detangles, repairs, and leaves the hair prepped for styling when used with Nº.3 Hair PerfectorTM and Nº.4 Bond Maintenance® Shampoo. Conditioning your hair increases manageability, which leads to less breakage when styling and wearing. Though Nº.5 moisturizes, it is not a moisture mask or conditioning treatment. Nº.8 is the complete bond-building moisture-mask experience.


What Is Nº.8?

So, what’s in a mask? Nº.8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask has a concentrated formula infused with patented OLAPLEX Bond Building Technology® to moisturize, smooth, and add shine while repairing hair bonds. Where Nº.5 conditions and nourishes, Nº.8 treats the hair with highly concentrated moisture and bond building. Think of Nº.8 as a hydrating face mask. Although a daily moisturizer maintains supple skin, a hydrating face mask that you use weekly addresses those moments when your skin craves extra moisture.


Can I Use Nº.5 and Nº.8 Together?

It’s never a matter of one or the other with conditioner and a mask—both are essential to the integrity of your hair. You can use Nº.5 to condition after shampooing with Nº.4. For healthy-looking hair, treat with Nº.8 once weekly in place of conditioner (or more frequently if you have color-treated or coarse hair). Apply to clean, damp hair and leave in for 10 minutes. Rinse, then apply your styling products, like Nº.6 Bond Smoother® Leave-In Styling Treatment and OLAPLEX Nº.7 Bonding Oil™.

When hair is moisturized and healthy, it provides a stronger foundation to protect against breakage and damage. To build your moisture routine, find more OLAPLEX products that can help address dryness, or take the Hair Quiz for a personalized haircare routine.
