When should I start trying Olaplex?

There are quite a few products within the range and sometimes it's difficult to know what is right for you and your hair so we've put this simple guide together to explain what each one does. Let's start with the IN-SALON only Treatment No.1 & 2 - This concentrated first salon step rebuilds broken disulfide bonds and begins the process of preventing damage and repairing the hair. Stylists who are new to OLAPLEX and would like to try before investing in the Traveling Stylist Kit or Salon Kit No.1: The concentrated first salon step rebuilds broken disulfide bonds and begins the process of preventing damage and repairing hair.

Cleverly, it seeks out the broken bonds that may have been missed in step one and gets busy repairing them. See No.2 as a more concentrated version of No.3 (more on that to come), but not quite as punchy as No.1. Olaplex No.0 Intensive Bond Building Treatment The formulas are powered by a compound called bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate (rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?) which fuses compromised bonds that have been damaged by chemicals, thermal heat, or mechanical factors like vigorous brushing. Having got my mitts on the Olaplex No.8 I decided, for a brief moment, to do exactly what I was told for my hair. I freshly shampooed, applied (a few more than) the recommended 2 pumps, swooned over the delicious scent – not strictly in the instructions but I challenge you not to do the same – and worked the product through my mid-lengths to ends with my fingers.

What does Olaplex do?

No.1 is a solution-based treatment that works to repair damaged hair. It’s a concentrated first step that hairdressers use to lessen the unwanted effects of chemical dyeing such as brittleness and breakage. It can also be added to glosses and toners. Olaplex No.2 Bond Perfector Cut the hair as normal. A haircut takes roughly 20 to 30 minutes—and during that time, Olaplex No.2 is working its magic. If you are getting your hair chemically treated, there is a chance your stylist will add Olaplex without you even knowing. You can always ask if your salon uses Olaplex when you make an appointment.

Mix 1/2 oz (15ml) No. 1 Bond Multiplier with 3 oz (90ml) water. This can be adjusted accordingly for different hair lengths. For example, if your hair is very long, 1 oz No. 1 can be mixed with 6 oz water.

Consider your personal hair history, too – if you’ve used chemical dye for years, it’ll unsurprisingly take longer to repair the damage. The verdict: Is Olaplex really worth the money?
