Let's start with the basics...

Olaplex is a three-step process that aims to repair and prevent hair damage. It works on a molecular level by restoring the hair’s broken bonds which can result from harsh chemical treatments like bleaching and colouring.

It’s more than just a conditioning treatment. While conditioning treatments simply coat the hair shaft – providing only temporary results – Olaplex treatments fundamentally changes and improves the internal hair structure.

Different from all other hair repair systems, Olaplex struck gold with its formula.

The star ingredient is Bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate (a mouthful, I know). It’s a patented ingredient that actively restores broken bonds. If you’re like me, you immediately think of the hundreds of split ends happening on your head. “Olaplex is repairing each hair strand as a whole (from base to ends)”. It’s finding bonds that have been broken down by any means (hair colour, chemical straighteners, blow dryers, etc.) and reconnecting them.

Who is Olaplex suitable for?

Although Olaplex will work best on colour treated hair that has been damaged through over-processing, everyone’s hair can
benefit from an Olaplex treatment.

From virgin hair to chemically straightened hair to permed hair, Olaplex is compatible with all hair types.

Olaplex No.1 “Bond Multiplier”

This concentrated first step rebuilds broken disulphide bonds and begins the process or repairing hair and preventing further damage.

This product goes on your hair during the colouring service. It’s mixed directly with the hair colour and applied directly onto your hair.

Olaplex No.2 “Bond Perfector”

This second step continues to restore and rebuild and remaining broken bonds, ensuring the healthiest, shiniest and strongest hair possible.

This product goes on at the basin. Once I have rinsed out your hair colour, Olaplex is applied and left on for around 10-20 minutes, then rinsed out.

While Olaplex No.1 & No.2 is exclusive to salon use only, we have Olaplex No.3, No.4 & No.5 products available. This allows you to continue caring and maintaining your locks in between your salon appointments.

This at home treatment is not a conditioner; it helps to reduce breakage and visibly strengthen hair, improving both its look and feel.

This product is recommended for weekly use at home and should be applied to wet hair for at least ten minutes (before rinsing, shampooing and conditioning as normal).
