VO5—short for Alberto VO5—has been a staple in the world of hair styling and hair care for decades. Originally created in the 1950s by a chemist in Hollywood to rescue damaged hair under hot studio lights, VO5 has since become a go-to brand across the UK. Whether you’ve seen it on shelves as V05, VO5, or even at your local Boots or Superdrug, the VO5 logo has become synonymous with affordable, performance-driven haircare.

Now available on Welzo’s Hair Care collection, VO5 offers a wide range of everyday essentials for volume, control, hydration, and hold. It’s more than just styling—it’s self-expression, powered by five essential vitamins.

Why VO5 Stands Out

What makes VO5 hair products so popular? It’s the perfect blend of salon-quality performance and daily practicality. Every bottle—whether it’s a VO5 shampoo, VO5 conditioner, or VO5 hairspray—is infused with vitamin-enriched formulas that nourish the hair while you style.

From sleek ponytails to tousled waves, VO5 lets you style with strength, without drying or damaging your hair. It’s a trusted choice for anyone seeking lightweight formulas that offer hold, hydration, and healthy shine.

The VO5 Legacy

VO5 was created by Alberto-Culver and quickly gained cult status under the name Alberto VO5, thanks to its unique formula containing five vital oils. It was one of the first mainstream brands to combine nourishment with styling, and that innovation still shapes the product line today.

The brand has grown massively since then, and is now stocked in stores like Boots VO5 and Superdrug VO5—and proudly online at Welzo.
