Sebastian Professional Potion 9

Potion 9 is Sebastian's conditioning range that styles too. The leave-in cream softens, detangles and gives hair a soft, touchable finish without crunch, which is why it's been a salon staple for so long, including at UKIYO in Wānaka.

Which Potion 9 product, and how we use it +

The Leave-In Conditioner & Styling Cream is the original. Work a small amount through damp hair, then air-dry or blow-dry. We stock the 500ml size, which is the one to buy if you use it daily. Finer hair usually does better with Potion 9 Lite, a spray that conditions without weight.

Super Luxe Styling Drops add shine and smoothness as a finishing step. The Nourishing Shampoo and Conditioner round out the routine, and the travel duo is an easy way to try them. Our Potion 9 guide explains which version suits your hair. It's all genuine salon stock from our Wānaka studio, posted NZ-wide, with free shipping on orders over $75.
