After nearly four decades as a professional haircare and color brand trusted by salons across North America, Oligo Professionnelis officially bringing its blonde expertise directly to consumers. With the launch of Blacklight Blonde Science, the brand introduces a science-led, routine-based care system designed specifically for lightened hair, making the perfect take-home collection for your clients.
Founded in 1986, the family-owned Oligo Professionnel has built its reputation as one of the top 10 professional color manufacturers in North America, known for innovation in hair color science and advanced blonding systems. Now, the same expertise relied on by stylists is available for at-home care and maintenance.
The full Blacklight Blonde Science collection includes three core care pillars: Hydrate, Repair, and Neutralize.

Blacklight Blonde Science began with a bold question: what if blonde care was engineered with the same precision as high-performance skincare?
“Blonde hair behaves differently,” said Ilan Cohen, President and CEO of Oligo Professionnel. “For decades, we have supported stylists with systems designed to protect and perfect lightened hair. Blacklight Blonde Science brings that same expertise to consumers, allowing them to maintain their blonde between appointments with professional-level care.”
Lightened and highlighted hair is more porous, more fragile, and more prone to moisture loss than untreated strands. Rather than offering standalone cosmetic fixes, Blacklight Blonde Science pairs high-performance skincare actives and nutrient-rich superfood ingredients, creating a modern system designed to hydrate, strengthen, and support the hair fiber at every stage.
The collection includes three core care pillars:
