What can be used to substitute the #3 olaplex and # 7 bonding oil for thin hair. I have heard olaplex is being sued and don’t want to risk using their products. What about Schwarzkopf? Are there any specific products thank you
Thanks for posting these! My baby fine grey hair is a completely different texture from my baby fine dark hair and I’ve been struggling to balance the two and find a good wash and styling routine that doesn’t damage my virgin hair. I’m learning so much and my hair is looking much better which makes me feel so good/ confident.
@@kaytom6721 Compared to the number of people who use Olaplex products, those suing are a small number (only 30), so I wouldn't take their being sued very seriously. Almost all hair product companies wind up getting sued. ANY product may cause reactions - on SOME people. Sometimes a reaction is caused by improper use or using with something else that - on that person - reacts negatively together. Unless you know you tend to be sensitive to the ingredients, you may be afraid needlessly.
How do you feel about the salon brand Eleven? It’s an Australian brand. my hair stylist recommended to me and it’s been good for my hair and the price is doable. I also use their miracle hair mask. I use the smoothing shampoo & conditioner since my hair is coarse and dry. I don’t use heat tools that often anymore since I highlight blonde and because my hair is extra dry due to where I live as well. I’m definitely going to try some olaplex and see if I notice a difference.
Olaplex has absolutely changed my hair, it's a miracle product. After about 15 years of heat damage and bleaching in my teens 😂. My hair wouldn't grow past my shoulders. Now my hair is half way down my back! I used the shampoo and conditioner for about six months and just recently started using number 3, I didn't know my hair could feel even better using olaplex ! Definitely worth the money even if I do have to really save to afford it ❤️
Sorry my english isnt good:(he speak fast for me... Shoud i use 4 shamp and 5 conditioner and olaplex 3 Or only olaplex?and before shampo or afther shampio i use olaplex 3?sorry for disturbing u
You can put on 0,5 speed in video settings and turn on captions! As to the video- He actually recommends shampoo and conditioner only for damaged hair as they are very heavy products. However no.3 before shampoo and no.6 ( very tiny amount) after washing and no.7 on ends is great for everyone as per his instructions.
Absolutely TRUE! My hair is the longest it's ever been. I use the 3 on occasion, 4&5 Shampoo and Conditioner when I wash....always the 6 bonding repair. I believe the 6 is the best....tried the 8 moisture and didn't do anything. My mom who has cancer got the shampoo and conditioner and her hair looks the shiniest ever.
@@grubchenmu9956 I believe he said he Doesn’t recommend the shampoo or the conditioner but he recommends Olaplex no. 3 BEFORE you shampoo, leave it on for about 3-5 mints and then shampoo it off and then condition your hair… he does speak fast . I have to replay the video over again so I can get it right. As a matter of fact, I was shampooing my hair first, then using the Opalex 3 , so I guess I was doing it all wrong…. 😅
This video was right on time for me. I have had healthy new growth, and no new length for months. I have relaxed hair, and went from thick bra strap length hair to shoulder length. I could not understand why my hair was "not growing". I thought maybe it was hormonal, but I'd have a healthy bit of new growth at my roots about every 7 weeks. I purchased the spray in this line at the beginning of the year, and just did not understand how to use it. Thank you for breaking down the different products, because by doing so, you saved my hair. I purchased No 3. and the bonding oil, followed your directions and OMG. I've also been roller setting, which has made a HUGE difference in my hair's health. When I am finished roller setting, I wrap my hair in a doobie and apply a few drops of the bonding oil. The results are FABULOUS! I wanted to cry I was so impressed, relieved. I discovered that a product I was using was damaging my hair and breaking it on the ends. I have also tried to cut out using a bunch of products in my hair, so that I could se which ones were working and which ones were not. No. 3 and the Bonding Oil have been a miracle for my hair's health. Thank you for helping me to figure this out.
Thank you! For getting right to the point without the time wasting intro and distracting loud music so many use on their videos. I wish you were my hair manager. Info very useful.
My hair is absolutely wrecked. I am naturally strawberry blonde, just wanted to cover a few grey strands. My newbie stylist dyed my hair dark brown!!!! She removed all of my natural, gorgeous highlighting. So a master colorist highlighted my hair, lightened my hair, and then glossed my hair. Needless to say, my hair is one crispy fritter. I need Olaplex 0-25,000. Thanks for the video! Really helpful!
Olaplex 3 is an incredible product for damaged hair. I got my hair wet at a spa that had a waterfall with an enormous amount of chlorine. I thought I wrecked my recently blonded hair. I used the Olaplex 3 from a Christmas gift pack I had and I was SHOCKED at how quickly it restored my hair. Definitely worth the money. You don’t need to use it often either.
I sense that .. that newbie stylists was yourself 😂 and that .. that master stylist wasn’t too mastered either. You pay cheap ..you will get cheap results.! Not everyone who call master herself is a MASTER! I’m just saying.
@@CupcakeGrogan Heat protection spray (Redkin Hotsets 22) goes on just before using hot iron tools. He said in another video to spray one spray per every 6 inches of dry hair, then brush through with a "wet brush", then curl with iron or straighten with flat iron. A very tiny amount of Olaplex 6 can go on towel dried hair after leave in conditioner and before the Redkin Big Blowout. Olaplex 7 oil can be mixed with Olaplex 6 and/or put on finished hair for extra shine and protection... a little goes a long way. He did a video explaining how oil is an inferior heat protectant, so I think it's better to put #7 on as a finishing oil on ends... and mid hair if damaged or if it needs some shine.
This explains why olaplex works so well for me! The heaviness of all their products is perfect, my hair is delicate, curley and dense. I can only get away with washing my hair at maximum once a week due to very dry hair and skin. I need to use like a 1/2 tsp of the 6 after washing but it stops breakage and keeps it sleek and manageable in a way I've never had another product work before.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you wrote, but your hair might be too dry because you aren't using enough product, or the wrong combination of products. Your products need to do two things: add moisture (hydration) and seal moisture in (moisture retention). It also takes time to repair hair. Many of us give up way before they would have seen positive results!
I literally went out and bought No. 3 specifically because of you!!!! And I've only used it once but I think it's helped a lot!! I have very treated, heat damaged, bleached, green, blue and dark brown hair and needed to do something.....anyhing... and I'm SOOOO GLAD I came across your videos!!!! Thank you soooooo much! 💙💙💙💚💚💚💜💜💜
@@MissSmurfey word of caution- my hair broke and fell out after using these products. I also know maaaany people that had the same thing happen after just 1 use. I also know people who had it happen when stylists used it on them- after one use. I also know it works great for some people. So just be careful.
I hope everyone reads and takes this comment on board as it is the truth! One time use here in a salon and the same results as this comment. There are facebook groups with hundreds of people who have suffered the same result. Do your own research people :)
@@natmya243I've never had any problems with them so far. Are people using them right? I only wash my hair every 4-5 days, and I use No. 0, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8. My hair not healthy either, it is severely damaged, and it has been growing steadily because of Olaplex. Maybe it's just me, IDK.
I have tried all Olaplex range and I always buy whatever new product they come up with. This is the only video on Olaplex I agree with, straight to the point.I do love Nr 8 though.
This guy is spot on with his evaluations. I had used Olaplex no 3 (two bottles worth) not the long ago and it made my hair really silky. I used other brand shampoo and conditioner. I decided to try Olaplex shampoo, conditioner, their mask, and stylinging products. I did not like them at all. They made my hair dry and lifeless, no body. I will stick with no 3 bonder only.
Just my opinion as someone with kinky curly hair i disagree with 4 & 5 making your hair to heavy or greasy I actually felt like it helped me retain moisture in comparison to other shampoos and conditioners 🤷🏽♀️ but thanks for the great info ☺️
agree - I have fine curly hair and this is the only shampoo and conditioner I have found that moisturises it without weighing it down - I can still go 4 days without washing or dry shampoo. Love it!
My #1 rule with shampoo & conditioner is ALTERNATING!! I keep at least 6 different sets going and use a different one each time. I also think paying attention to how your hair feels is important (in & out of the shower). If after I shampoo my hair feels particularly dry & ratty I will add a bit of a mask with my conditioner for extra moisture. Nobody knows how your hair should feel better than YOU! Following the same routine without concern for what your hair is telling you is a big mistake to me. I have icy white highlights added to my natural blonde hair, I know this can be drying along with purple shampoos, so I make a point to use the ones that don't dry my hair out (but still alternate with other good shampoos). I do like #9 and #6 but still alternate with other products. My method of alternating also allows you to stretch the time with your more expensive products & get the benefits every time because my hair gets used to a product quickly. I pay attention to sales & stock up. Thanks for explaining!! I'll check out some of your other videos 🤍
Realy do u like the product?i buy 3,4,5,6,7 because of him, i hope it helps my damagad hai,r because i bleached often my hair and nothing help me :(i wait that the product come to myhomesoon
No 3 actually had some detangling and made my hair soft. Two weeks later after only one use....BABY my hair was soft and barely had any breakage on wash day. My breakage is normally out of control. Aghogee is usually my go to when the breakage gets out of control but it makes my hair so hard and my hair gets protein overload very easily so I can't use it for like 6 months. So No.3 is a great alternative.
My hair is really thin and damaged and it falls off a lot whenever I brush it or wash it. Should I use no. 3 as well. I have never dyed my hair or done any sorta experiments on it
Aphogee is not made to use regularly. Also you need a softening next step for it when you use it. It's usually best for right after a bleach treatment and then you probably won't need it again.
I'd recommend Elizavecca CER-100. Booooy! I've read so much on this product as a duppe for Olaplex and my curiosity got the best of me. I bought it and it leaves the hair super soft and with good movement. It is a protein treatment, but whatever is the combination of products, it is great. I am seriously considering ditching Olaplex for it because it is difficult to get in my country.
I’m a little late to the game watching this video but I’m going through chemo #11 on Monday, and while I’m lucky and haven’t lost all my hair it’s definitely getting thin. I was truly ready to ask for an early Christmas gift from my dads to buy the whole full size Olaplex line lol. I’m so thankful my impulsive self decided to research first. I have a natural dark dark brown color and would bleach it once a month so I could have light pink or periwinkle lol the weird thing is I haven’t touched the bleach or really used a lot of heat tools, just haven’t had the energy. The weirdest thing though is my hair grew back in a very light brown which I plan on keeping all natural. Anyways I just wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and saving dad alot of money lol. Truly thank you 💜 also eff cancer
I use 0,3,4,5,and 6 Olaplex once a week. My hair is naturally curly and extremely fine. It has helped to define my curls and cut down on breakage. If I don't use it my hair seems to be a mess.
I was so allergic to this. It caused chemical burns all over my hair and neck. HOWEVER your advice in another video…on repainting damaged hair. By conditioning the mids and oil for the ends. THAT SAVED MY HAIR!!! Your advice literally saved my fried hair. Thank you!!!!
Oleplex - transformed my shoulder length fine highlighted hair to grow the longest ever. I started with 3 and it is a great treatment. I do use the shampoo & conditioner 4 & 5 - makes it shiny....always the 6, I believe the 6 is what has helped my hair grow and prevented breakage. I tried the 8, did not condition much, maybe my hair didn't need moisture....I recently ordered the oil and have many oils I like, including the one at Trader Joes for dirt cheap. I want to find a good deep conditioner and thinking of trying the Amika line next....But Oleplex 4, 5 & especially 6 will always be my favs, the results speak for themselves!
I have tried many times to contact this company via their website, their Facebook both in posts and in messenger… They really do not seem interested in helping me decide which was the best route to take when starting this new product. They are so expensive and I’m reluctant to take the plunge without any advice. This video has answered a lot of my queries and I thank you so much.
Yes. I purchased the Olaplex #7. It didn't have any instructions with it, so it's been here in my hair arsenal for a while. A friend said I could get online and find the instructions. So, I did today. Found The Hair Lounge and listened to you. Thank you for the video. Showing and giving verbal instructions were great. I'm the kind of individual who needs exact instructions every step of the way. Will check in from time to time. Keep on helping us. Thanks so much.
This is not telling me how to grow hair or stop hair from falling out does anyone know products to stop hair loss and regrow hair. Please let me know thanks
Realy?sorry my english is bad:(at first you wash you hair with olaolex 4? And than u use number 3 and afther this u make again shampo? And than olaplex 5 is this the right line
I use the revlon brush dryer. I picked up the olaplex 6 and my hair really blew out nice. Better than when I use other products. I have very thick course hair. I recommend this product for my hair type.
I was confused by your top, and for a few second I thought the third word started with C, not L. Now, I enjoyed your video, thank you for filming this.
This is such a great video. I have #3 and bought #0 and I used 3/4 of the #0 the first time because my hair is so so long and thick so I told myself no way am I buying that one again. I'm very happy to know it's not actually necessary. Thank you for this.
Wow! Thank you so much for getting right to the point and making it simple. Most people just tell you a bunch of fluff to get you to buy it but they don't tell you how it works or why you should or should use it. They just say whatever to get you to buys it.
I've had all the same thoughts and opinions on Olaplex products after trying them on myself and my clients over the years! That No 6 tip is crucial, don't use too much. Major difference. I haven't tried No 9 yet but I'll take your word for it 😛
You are so right! My hair is somewhat damaged and I remember not knowing olaplex very well and just buying No 4 and No 5 (the shampoo and conditioner) alongside No 8. It made my hair look very dry and even more damaged. Now I use only No 3 which you recommended and my hair is so much more amazing and healthy. Thank you so much
I have used 6 for awhile, and just bought a trial sized kit to sample several other products. I'm interested in 3 and 8 specifically. I read a comment from Olaplex that 9 is to be used like a facial serum: apply first to clean hair, then use styling products like 6 and 7. I had no interest in 7, but will revisit it after watching this video. I'm a bit unsure if my hair is actually damaged, or if it's just that I have dry, wavy, porous hair that is always going frizzy. I'll check out some of your other videos to find better mask options that you mentioned.
Wish I saw this video a few months ago!! I have very fine, thin damaged hair and I bought No 3 because my research concluded that no 3 was what I need..
I'm so glad they created Olaplex 9! I've had the repairing treatments 1 & 2, but I didn't try 6 or the other styling products because I prefer to not use silicone, just personal preference. Now with 9, I'm excited to try the silicone free option.
I have curly hair and use No. 9 (as well as No 3 on a regular basis). I was surprised that dimethicone is in several of Olaplex’s products, considering their whole line is meant to either repair or provide bonding within the styling products to continuously prevent damage. Silicones are some of the most damaging ingredients…so I called Olaplex and inquired about this. The rep I spoke with said that the dimethicone they use is molecularly different from the generic dimethicones in other brands. She assured me that their dimethicone is water soluble, and therefore does not build up on the hair causing damage. However…I intuitively do not feel this is trustworthy information. I remember learning about isomers in my chemistry classes. I’m pretty sure that isomers are supposed to be labeled to distinguish them, even if they are made of the same numbers of each type of atom. This is why I cannot believe what they told me. Their label would show the isomer name, not just “dimethicone”. Please, if anyone knows more about this than I do, correct me if I’m wrong. No.9 works SOOOOO WELL for my hair. It is so light and coats each strand so well that I can run my fingers through my hair so easily. I always apply a leave in first (Shea moisture brand), then No9, then aloe Vera gel (like what you get in the after-sun care section). It has been the perfect combination for my 3A hair. The no 9 makes it so easy to apply a stickier styling gel without tugging and pulling, which is characteristic of what happens when you try to style hair with a naturally rougher texture. It also makes retouching applications so easy and it doesn’t take much product at all.
I was so overwhelmed by all the different hair products (especially from olaplex), this video and your list that you email is a life saver, thanks so much! Hopefully I can figure out a good haircare regimen now!
I love olaplex 0 and 3 as well as no 7 the oil... I thought I would love the shampoo and conditoner too but it made my hair break! Used it once and then just gave it away.. really good info in this video!!
I found 0 quite hard to apply evenly. I use 3 as a preventative, but otherwise just take very careful care of my hair (medium thickness, fine, not dyed or bleached, silk pillowcase etc) The hairdresser really likes the condition of my hair, so I'm pretty happy with that.
I been on my natural curly hair journey since 2019 and I have mixed and matched so many different "curly girl" and "repair" products I have heat damage and color change in my hair that my thin fine hair lost it's natural curl pattern I have finally found my perfect routine and yup that includes olaplex and Moroccanoil products. I finally get healthy ringlets and consistent good hair days 🙌
No.8 really helped my hair without the use of no3. If my hair gets even more damaged i will have to invest in no.3. I also have no.6 and my frizziness has been kinda toned down. My hair is frizzy due to the damage of bleaching my hair. But honestly i dont think everyone needs all the olaplex. I would just invest in 3 products at the most.
I’ve got naturally dark brown hair and had the stupid idea to go blonde 😄. It worked, it looked pretty, also thanks to Olapex. But after 2 years I got fed up and had my hair dyed brown to avoid ugly growouts. Olaplex 3,4,5,6 and 8 are absolutely unbeaten to me 💁♀️. Whenever I use other products, my hair will punish me. My hair is thick and curly, I straighten it 3x a week.
I love Olaplex, but I have damaged hair right now. Olaplex has helped me repair my damage. You are right that the shampoo and conditioner does make it feel heavier. But my hair was wrecked. So I’m willing to live with it for a month. However, I did get the suggested products from your website. I love the styling products and the routine has helped Olaplex work better.
I bought 0 and 3. I found 0 drying. When I used 3 with coconut oil (thought process was to seal in the healing attributes and slow/prevent the product from drying out (could be bogus) but my results were 💯 better than using coconut oil alone or 3 alone so it worked for me
I’ve used 0,3,4, and 5…used twice, and it’s amazing. I’m 50 with thin, fine hair. So far, no heavy hair…and my hair is looking amazing, and manageable.
Such a concise video and yet packed full of information!! I wish I had watched this video before I went and buy the shampoo and conditioner, using them at every wash and wondering why my hair felt so icky right after wash 😭
The most helpful Olaplex video I've seen. I've been wanting to try the line but had no idea where to begin. Other videos felt mesmerizing and involved using - what seemed to me - to be too many products! Thanks so much. Glad I found your channel today!
Best video ever! I’ve been trying all of them and I have thick fine hair with lots of flyaways but otherwise healthy. It’s good to know this is too heavy for my hair - as I was using it a lot and not loving the results over time. I have number 6 and was using way more than a pea!! I can’t wait to try it again….correctly. Thank you!
I’d use that over the 9. I have coated hair that doesn’t easily wash now. I only had a trial sized tube but it is too heavy for fine hair regardless of how much you have. Leaving this here just in case you’ll read it or in the hopes of helping someone else.
Ok so I promise this has been my routine before I found your channel. I currently use No. 6 and 7. I use 6 right after I wash my hair whether I straighten it or not. Although it s not for repairing the hair, I have noticed a huge difference since I started using it. When I do straighten my hair I apply this first, a little less than pea size, let it sit. I follow it with the Moroccan oil smooth lotion for Blow-dry, about the same amount. By this point my hair smells Amazing! And then I follow it with this like very generic heat protectant spray my salon lady uses ( I will admit once this finishes I plan to buy a professional one) I like to do about 3 sprays ON MY HANDS, i don’t like to spray directly on my hair, and honestly, my blow dry last Long time and I get nice shine. Once I am done blow drying it ( I use Lange blow dry brush) I do apply No 7 to my ends and reapply it my third day. I am currently pregnant and get really hot, and sweaty, so I expect this styling to last me a little longer once I give birth. I have natural curly hair, my hair is up to my trapezoids and it’s color treated. Honestly this routine has been the best one I found. Based on your videos I realize that Morrocan oil is for coarse hair so I do plan to cut back on their product, and maybe this will help my Do last. Truly hope this helps someone :)
Tip my stylist gave for extremely damaged hair like mine was she said wash my hair then use number 3 for the most time I can I only did my ends and slept with it at night and my hair revived like a miracle I also leave it for 2-3 hrs when I'm on a rush it 💯 works
I am thinking to try #3. How often do you use it? How long did it take to notice results? I have fine hair and wanting to treat it after bleaching as that did some damage that caused lots of split ends 😭
@@MissSmurfey try it for 7 days straight if you want to see big results fast, alternatively one a week or month. It completely depends on how bad the damage is
@@MissSmurfey split ends can only be removed by trims. Olaplex just helps keep your hair stronger as you grow it out. It says use it 1x/wk or 2-3x/wk for damaged hair. Results and time vary based on your hair damage.
I use O&3. I absolutely love it. I have curly, easily tangled, wirey hair.this system really helps prep my hair to receive moisture too. Applying it on an old blow out, my curls pop and are more defined. Cuts down on my drying time and blow dry. I’ll be looking into getting 6 when I return for 0&3.😊
I'm working my way through a trial size set that consists of 0,3,8, and a shampoo and conditioner. It's making a huge difference in the way my hair feels while I'm trying to grow it long again. I cut it all off last year. I'll just be ready to use a regular shampoo and try their styling products soon.
I just found you on TH-cam a few days ago, and become a HUGE fan. You are so genuine and honest and on top of that, very handsome 😂 I can not stop binge watching your videos. I will buy the products you recommend and finally, start taking care of my frizzy hair with the right products. Thank you!
The stuff actually mad my hair fall out like crazy. I tried it two different occasions and both times my hair came out in clumps. After I stopped using it, the hair loss stopped. It might work great for some but not everyone.
As someone with super damage bleached hair I will tell you olaplex 0,3,4,5 has saved my hair from extreme breakage. I only use it once a week. And it’s improved…
11:47 am. I think you are amazing Chris! You are doing such a helpful , kind service by weeding out unnecessary hair products. 🤗 I know hair care corporations will do ANYTHING, to sell mass products. They think nothing of misleading us , ruining our hair, and wasting our hard earned money , on their bogus products. As long as it fills their pockets. Frankly I don’t know how they sleep at night! It’s that kind of greed that has taken over a lot of the world. But that’s a whole other story, for another day 💁🏼♀️. It’s nice to see someone who’s expertise , and passion for all things hair ,didn’t change him into one of those greedy execs. Rather , you truly want to see people looking ,and feeling good about the condition of their hair. And freely share your wealth of knowledge, saving us money and time. I truly applaud 👏 you my friend !!! You are pretty easy on the eyes too ☺️. Just saying ….😉
I am so glad I found you Chris! I have been struggling with my hair for a while and I binge watched a stack of your videos yesterday and have learnt so much, thank you. Your knowledge is what I need as it is just all so overwhelming - I love your straight to the point, no-nonsense videos. Now I can concentrate getting my broken hair back to how it once was. Thanks again from Lincolnshire, England 😘
Wow! Thank you so much, I really was wondering which olaplex productos to buy as I can’t afford all of them right now. This was what I needed to watch.
The best : N°3 to use before shampoo N°6 styling product, do not use too much, gets rid of frizz N°7 adds shine, great for fine/ médium hair, but he prefers n°6
The bond conditioner made my hair feel clean, lightweight and super silky soft, no difference in time in between washes, love this product! I have short, men’s hair, that had been bleached over 10 years ago numerous times. Love the feel of this conditioner, don’t particularly experience your points on it.
I've bleach my hair white 20+ years and for me 4P and 4C are perfect together..First the purple, leave it in for approx 4 minutters, rinse well and the I use the blue, scrub it well and leave it in for about 10 minutes and the slightly purple teint is totally gone, and snow-white. It's the perfect combo for after bleaching....I love it BUT remember only buy from authorised dealers as there are so many useless copies being sold!!!
I use 4&5 as my regular shampoo and conditioner, during the covid period I let my hair grow out quite long, it's fine but reasonably thick and just a little wavy and I find I don't need to shampoo more than once every couple of weeks or so, bear in mind I really don't use styling products and air dry my hair, every few months I use a clarifying shampoo to get rid of build-up and I'm good to go. I also use 0 and 3 but only infrequently perhaps every couple of months. This routine has helped keep split ends to a minimum and leaves my hair in really good shape. I do agree that 7 is amazing, love to use it on my ends when they start to feel dry. I'm interested to see if you have an opinion on the new clarifying shampoo they put out, shall go to your channel and check it out.
Grateful for your honest review. No wonder the shampoo and conditioner suck! I’m on the fence about 9 and the heat protection is a great selling point. But you gave me a reality check- 6 would actually do the same
This is hands down the best olaplex video out there. Thank you for putting so much information in such a short video. I just got the whole range and was really wondering why they made the n9 when n6 seems to be doing quite the same job, so thanks for clearing that up. I just gotta say though, n3 and n8 have saved my hair when I went full on platinum and they're really my faves.
I love Olaplex 4 & 5 (plus, 6, 7 mixed together)..it saved my hair when my stylist over processed my highlights and it was breaking off! You're right on with 0 and I won't buy 9 again. While my hair has grown out from that disaster, I continue to use 4, 5, 6 & 7. The key with 6 & 7 is to not use too much. I moved from the beach to the desert and my hair is much dryer here. This combo of product keeps it from drying out. What I don't love is that they now sell it on QVC😡
Thank you sooo much for this!! 💕💖💓I’ve been looking into Olaplex 0,3,4,5, and 7 after getting a Japanese straight perm since my current shampoo is just a smoothing shampoo and was overwhelmed by the different numbers and uses for each product. 😅 This video is so helpful! I was wondering if Olaplex 4 & 5 cause buildup and if so, would a clarifying shampoo help remove the buildup?
My Recommended Product List :) blowoutprofessor.tiny.us/yckfcfnx
What can be used to substitute the #3 olaplex and # 7 bonding oil for thin hair. I have heard olaplex is being sued and don’t want to risk using their products.
What about Schwarzkopf? Are there any specific products thank you
Thanks for posting these! My baby fine grey hair is a completely different texture from my baby fine dark hair and I’ve been struggling to balance the two and find a good wash and styling routine that doesn’t damage my virgin hair. I’m learning so much and my hair is looking much better which makes me feel so good/ confident.
@@kaytom6721 Compared to the number of people who use Olaplex products, those suing are a small number (only 30), so I wouldn't take their being sued very seriously. Almost all hair product companies wind up getting sued. ANY product may cause reactions - on SOME people. Sometimes a reaction is caused by improper use or using with something else that - on that person - reacts negatively together. Unless you know you tend to be sensitive to the ingredients, you may be afraid needlessly.
@@RaDazzle1 thank you so much for replying
How do you feel about the salon brand Eleven? It’s an Australian brand. my hair stylist recommended to me and it’s been good for my hair and the price is doable. I also use their miracle hair mask. I use the smoothing shampoo & conditioner since my hair is coarse and dry. I don’t use heat tools that often anymore since I highlight blonde and because my hair is extra dry due to where I live as well. I’m definitely going to try some olaplex and see if I notice a difference.

Those of you who put timestamps in the comments are the true heroes! Thank you for this❤
How should we use no 3 ?
Olaplex has absolutely changed my hair, it's a miracle product. After about 15 years of heat damage and bleaching in my teens 😂. My hair wouldn't grow past my shoulders. Now my hair is half way down my back! I used the shampoo and conditioner for about six months and just recently started using number 3, I didn't know my hair could feel even better using olaplex ! Definitely worth the money even if I do have to really save to afford it ❤️
Sorry my english isnt good:(he speak fast for me...
Shoud i use 4 shamp and 5 conditioner and olaplex 3
Or only olaplex?and before shampo or afther shampio i use olaplex 3?sorry for disturbing u
You can put on 0,5 speed in video settings and turn on captions!
As to the video- He actually recommends shampoo and conditioner only for damaged hair as they are very heavy products. However no.3 before shampoo and no.6 ( very tiny amount) after washing and no.7 on ends is great for everyone as per his instructions.
Absolutely TRUE! My hair is the longest it's ever been. I use the 3 on occasion, 4&5 Shampoo and Conditioner when I wash....always the 6 bonding repair. I believe the 6 is the best....tried the 8 moisture and didn't do anything. My mom who has cancer got the shampoo and conditioner and her hair looks the shiniest ever.
@@grubchenmu9956 I believe he said he Doesn’t recommend the shampoo or the conditioner but he recommends Olaplex no. 3 BEFORE you shampoo, leave it on for about 3-5 mints and then shampoo it off and then condition your hair… he does speak fast . I have to replay the video over again so I can get it right. As a matter of fact, I was shampooing my hair first, then using the Opalex 3 , so I guess I was doing it all wrong…. 😅
I shaved my hair off January this month is my 4 month u think if I switch to olaplaex shampoo my hair will grow fast or the same
This video was right on time for me. I have had healthy new growth, and no new length for months. I have relaxed hair, and went from thick bra strap length hair to shoulder length. I could not understand why my hair was "not growing". I thought maybe it was hormonal, but I'd have a healthy bit of new growth at my roots about every 7 weeks. I purchased the spray in this line at the beginning of the year, and just did not understand how to use it. Thank you for breaking down the different products, because by doing so, you saved my hair. I purchased No 3. and the bonding oil, followed your directions and OMG. I've also been roller setting, which has made a HUGE difference in my hair's health. When I am finished roller setting, I wrap my hair in a doobie and apply a few drops of the bonding oil. The results are FABULOUS! I wanted to cry I was so impressed, relieved. I discovered that a product I was using was damaging my hair and breaking it on the ends. I have also tried to cut out using a bunch of products in my hair, so that I could se which ones were working and which ones were not. No. 3 and the Bonding Oil have been a miracle for my hair's health. Thank you for helping me to figure this out.
Thank you! For getting right to the point without the time wasting intro and distracting loud music so many use on their videos. I wish you were my hair manager. Info very useful.
My hair is absolutely wrecked. I am naturally strawberry blonde, just wanted to cover a few grey strands. My newbie stylist dyed my hair dark brown!!!! She removed all of my natural, gorgeous highlighting. So a master colorist highlighted my hair, lightened my hair, and then glossed my hair. Needless to say, my hair is one crispy fritter. I need Olaplex 0-25,000. Thanks for the video! Really helpful!
Olaplex 3 is an incredible product for damaged hair. I got my hair wet at a spa that had a waterfall with an enormous amount of chlorine. I thought I wrecked my recently blonded hair. I used the Olaplex 3 from a Christmas gift pack I had and I was SHOCKED at how quickly it restored my hair. Definitely worth the money. You don’t need to use it often either.
I second No. 3, I do hate the shampoo process before and after it but it's worked really well for me so far.
Same, my hair has been wrecked too :(
I sense that .. that newbie stylists was yourself 😂 and that .. that master stylist wasn’t too mastered either. You pay cheap ..you will get cheap results.! Not everyone who call master herself is a MASTER! I’m just saying.
Did you fix your hair with olaplex?
So helpful! I had no idea there were styling products vs repair products. Much easier to shop effectively instead of trial and error! 🤩
Yes! Trial and error takes forever and it's expensive. Brands should do a better job explaining their products :)
@@BlowoutProfessor At what point would I spray on a heat protectant spray if I wanted to try the #6 and #7?
@@BlowoutProfessor what is your opinion of K18? Is it better than Olaplex?
@@CupcakeGrogan Heat protection spray (Redkin Hotsets 22) goes on just before using hot iron tools. He said in another video to spray one spray per every 6 inches of dry hair, then brush through with a "wet brush", then curl with iron or straighten with flat iron. A very tiny amount of Olaplex 6 can go on towel dried hair after leave in conditioner and before the Redkin Big Blowout. Olaplex 7 oil can be mixed with Olaplex 6 and/or put on finished hair for extra shine and protection... a little goes a long way. He did a video explaining how oil is an inferior heat protectant, so I think it's better to put #7 on as a finishing oil on ends... and mid hair if damaged or if it needs some shine.
This explains why olaplex works so well for me! The heaviness of all their products is perfect, my hair is delicate, curley and dense. I can only get away with washing my hair at maximum once a week due to very dry hair and skin. I need to use like a 1/2 tsp of the 6 after washing but it stops breakage and keeps it sleek and manageable in a way I've never had another product work before.
Good intel
Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you wrote, but your hair might be too dry because you aren't using enough product, or the wrong combination of products. Your products need to do two things: add moisture (hydration) and seal moisture in (moisture retention). It also takes time to repair hair. Many of us give up way before they would have seen positive results!
Thank you!! Literally almost dropped $150 on olaplex products so glad I found this video. Will be watching many of your videos, so helpful thank you
I literally went out and bought No. 3 specifically because of you!!!! And I've only used it once but I think it's helped a lot!! I have very treated, heat damaged, bleached, green, blue and dark brown hair and needed to do something.....anyhing... and I'm SOOOO GLAD I came across your videos!!!! Thank you soooooo much!
💙💙💙💚💚💚💜💜💜
Amazing! Hope it makes your hair look and feel flawless 👍
I am thinking to try #3. How long till you saw results and how often do you use it? How long do you keep it on?
@@MissSmurfey word of caution- my hair broke and fell out after using these products. I also know maaaany people that had the same thing happen after just 1 use. I also know people who had it happen when stylists used it on them- after one use. I also know it works great for some people. So just be careful.
I hope everyone reads and takes this comment on board as it is the truth! One time use here in a salon and the same results as this comment. There are facebook groups with hundreds of people who have suffered the same result. Do your own research people :)
@@natmya243I've never had any problems with them so far. Are people using them right?
I only wash my hair every 4-5 days, and I use No. 0, 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8. My hair not healthy either, it is severely damaged, and it has been growing steadily because of Olaplex. Maybe it's just me, IDK.
I've been waiting years for a great explanation of Olaplex products!
I have tried all Olaplex range and I always buy whatever new product they come up with. This is the only video on Olaplex I agree with, straight to the point.I do love Nr 8 though.
This guy's an absolute legend. What a fantastic video! 👍👌💖
This guy is spot on with his evaluations. I had used Olaplex no 3 (two bottles worth) not the long ago and it made my hair really silky. I used other brand shampoo and conditioner. I decided to try Olaplex shampoo, conditioner, their mask, and stylinging products. I did not like them at all. They made my hair dry and lifeless, no body.
I will stick with no 3 bonder only.
Just my opinion as someone with kinky curly hair i disagree with 4 & 5 making your hair to heavy or greasy I actually felt like it helped me retain moisture in comparison to other shampoos and conditioners 🤷🏽♀️ but thanks for the great info ☺️
He did mention its only intended for repair and that it works in that regard. Might try it if the redken doesnt work for my curls.
Imagine if your hair is straight, though... it would be an oil factory, lol
agree - I have fine curly hair and this is the only shampoo and conditioner I have found that moisturises it without weighing it down - I can still go 4 days without washing or dry shampoo. Love it!
@@бронза.вафля.конусhahahha
Well yes, because you’re curly
Number 3 is amazing! Huge tip a lot of people don't know is that it should be on damp hair. I mist my hair before applying.
My #1 rule with shampoo & conditioner is ALTERNATING!! I keep at least 6 different sets going and use a different one each time. I also think paying attention to how your hair feels is important (in & out of the shower). If after I shampoo my hair feels particularly dry & ratty I will add a bit of a mask with my conditioner for extra moisture. Nobody knows how your hair should feel better than YOU! Following the same routine without concern for what your hair is telling you is a big mistake to me. I have icy white highlights added to my natural blonde hair, I know this can be drying along with purple shampoos, so I make a point to use the ones that don't dry my hair out (but still alternate with other good shampoos). I do like #9 and #6 but still alternate with other products. My method of alternating also allows you to stretch the time with your more expensive products & get the benefits every time because my hair gets used to a product quickly. I pay attention to sales & stock up. Thanks for explaining!! I'll check out some of your other videos 🤍
I love the Olaplex line. I had bleached damaged hair, that was brittle & very dry. I use 3,4,5. Within 2 weeks a VERY NICE CHANGE! Soft hair! Love it.
Realy do u like the product?i buy 3,4,5,6,7 because of him, i hope it helps my damagad hai,r because i bleached often my hair and nothing help me :(i wait that the product come to myhomesoon
No 3 actually had some detangling and made my hair soft. Two weeks later after only one use....BABY my hair was soft and barely had any breakage on wash day. My breakage is normally out of control. Aghogee is usually my go to when the breakage gets out of control but it makes my hair so hard and my hair gets protein overload very easily so I can't use it for like 6 months. So No.3 is a great alternative.
Thanks for the comparison.
My hair is really thin and damaged and it falls off a lot whenever I brush it or wash it. Should I use no. 3 as well. I have never dyed my hair or done any sorta experiments on it
How u use it
Aphogee is not made to use regularly. Also you need a softening next step for it when you use it. It's usually best for right after a bleach treatment and then you probably won't need it again.
I'd recommend Elizavecca CER-100. Booooy! I've read so much on this product as a duppe for Olaplex and my curiosity got the best of me. I bought it and it leaves the hair super soft and with good movement.
It is a protein treatment, but whatever is the combination of products, it is great. I am seriously considering ditching Olaplex for it because it is difficult to get in my country.
I’m a little late to the game watching this video but I’m going through chemo #11 on Monday, and while I’m lucky and haven’t lost all my hair it’s definitely getting thin. I was truly ready to ask for an early Christmas gift from my dads to buy the whole full size Olaplex line lol. I’m so thankful my impulsive self decided to research first. I have a natural dark dark brown color and would bleach it once a month so I could have light pink or periwinkle lol the weird thing is I haven’t touched the bleach or really used a lot of heat tools, just haven’t had the energy. The weirdest thing though is my hair grew back in a very light brown which I plan on keeping all natural. Anyways I just wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us and saving dad alot of money lol. Truly thank you 💜 also eff cancer
Praying for your recovery 🙏 xx
Keep fighting. I’m proud of u🤎 and I’m so sorry
F cancer. My mom will be getting her last round next month. I’m praying for you and your family!

Using no 6 & 7 together is the best thing I have ever done for my hair. Just brilliant.
Same and my hair was fried
Can i use These two without using the Rest of the series? 6 and 7 are the leave in and the oil right?
@@JAYDENisLISTENING i personally use 6 without anything else related to olaplex so yes!
totally!
@@dreambrush7251 does it help with split ends
I heard everything you said but Im here for your muscles.
I use 0,3,4,5,and 6 Olaplex once a week. My hair is naturally curly and extremely fine. It has helped to define my curls and cut down on breakage. If I don't use it my hair seems to be a mess.
I was so allergic to this. It caused chemical burns all over my hair and neck. HOWEVER your advice in another video…on repainting damaged hair. By conditioning the mids and oil for the ends. THAT SAVED MY HAIR!!! Your advice literally saved my fried hair. Thank you!!!!
Oleplex - transformed my shoulder length fine highlighted hair to grow the longest ever. I started with 3 and it is a great treatment. I do use the shampoo & conditioner 4 & 5 - makes it shiny....always the 6, I believe the 6 is what has helped my hair grow and prevented breakage. I tried the 8, did not condition much, maybe my hair didn't need moisture....I recently ordered the oil and have many oils I like, including the one at Trader Joes for dirt cheap. I want to find a good deep conditioner and thinking of trying the Amika line next....But Oleplex 4, 5 & especially 6 will always be my favs, the results speak for themselves!
I have tried many times to contact this company via their website, their Facebook both in posts and in messenger… They really do not seem interested in helping me decide which was the best route to take when starting this new product. They are so expensive and I’m reluctant to take the plunge without any advice. This video has answered a lot of my queries and I thank you so much.
so concise and to the point! loved the video
You stated nothing but facts in this video!!! I’m not even a hair stylist and I already thought this about each product
This was by far the most straight to the point and useful video on olaplex I have ever watched. Thank you!
I used no 3 like you said and wow what a difference. Thank you for your money saving advice ❤
Yes. I purchased the Olaplex #7. It didn't have any instructions with it, so it's been here in my hair arsenal for a while. A friend said I could get online and find the instructions. So, I did today. Found The Hair Lounge and listened to you. Thank you for the video. Showing and giving verbal instructions were great. I'm the kind of individual who needs exact instructions every step of the way. Will check in from time to time. Keep on helping us. Thanks so much.
3 is life changing for my hair! I’m trying the others but Sally’s just came out with a dupe line so I’m going to try those!
I just bought the hair treatment for $62.00, wish I had seen this video first. Thank you for this honest video. New subscriber here.
Concise and well explained! Love that you skip all the fluff and go straight to the point. Thanks so much!
This is not telling me how to grow hair or stop hair from falling out does anyone know products to stop hair loss and regrow hair. Please let me know thanks
No. 6 is amazing stuff it makes my hair feel like literal silk
I love no. 9! The serum is so hydrating & adds lots of shine. If I could only pick one olaplex product, it would be that one 💜
I used 3,4,5 today! OMG my hair feels amazing.
Realy?sorry my english is bad:(at first you wash you hair with olaolex 4?
And than u use number 3 and afther this u make again shampo?
And than olaplex 5 is this the right line
Great video, thank you. My hairdresser introduced me to Olaplex back in 2020 its been amazing for my afro hair, I use 3 and 6. No 6. is the bomb 👍🏾
Yes! Love both of those products 👍
I use the revlon brush dryer. I picked up the olaplex 6 and my hair really blew out nice. Better than when I use other products. I have very thick course hair. I recommend this product for my hair type.
I am grateful for the honesty and simplicity thanks!
I was confused by your top, and for a few second I thought the third word started with C, not L.
Now, I enjoyed your video, thank you for filming this.
This is such a great video. I have #3 and bought #0 and I used 3/4 of the #0 the first time because my hair is so so long and thick so I told myself no way am I buying that one again. I'm very happy to know it's not actually necessary. Thank you for this.
I just bought no.7 and I’m loving it.
Wow! Thank you so much for getting right to the point and making it simple. Most people just tell you a bunch of fluff to get you to buy it but they don't tell you how it works or why you should or should use it. They just say whatever to get you to buys it.
Great informative video! Finally an expert on Olaplex
I've had all the same thoughts and opinions on Olaplex products after trying them on myself and my clients over the years! That No 6 tip is crucial, don't use too much. Major difference. I haven't tried No 9 yet but I'll take your word for it 😛
You are so right! My hair is somewhat damaged and I remember not knowing olaplex very well and just buying No 4 and No 5 (the shampoo and conditioner) alongside No 8. It made my hair look very dry and even more damaged. Now I use only No 3 which you recommended and my hair is so much more amazing and healthy. Thank you so much
I have used 6 for awhile, and just bought a trial sized kit to sample several other products. I'm interested in 3 and 8 specifically. I read a comment from Olaplex that 9 is to be used like a facial serum: apply first to clean hair, then use styling products like 6 and 7. I had no interest in 7, but will revisit it after watching this video. I'm a bit unsure if my hair is actually damaged, or if it's just that I have dry, wavy, porous hair that is always going frizzy. I'll check out some of your other videos to find better mask options that you mentioned.
Omg! I have been completely baffled by the whole Olaplex system. You set me straight! Thank you! Awesome videos! Just subscribed!
Best review of Olaplex. Appreciate your honesty! What hair mask do you recommend for dry, colour treated hair?
Wish I saw this video a few months ago!! I have very fine, thin damaged hair and I bought No 3 because my research concluded that no 3 was what I need..
This video was so concise and informative. Love it. Thank you!!!!
I’m watching this third time, I don’t know if I like OlaPlex but I definitely like this video:)
I'm so glad they created Olaplex 9! I've had the repairing treatments 1 & 2, but I didn't try 6 or the other styling products because I prefer to not use silicone, just personal preference. Now with 9, I'm excited to try the silicone free option.
but they say no6 doesn’t contain silicone
@@veena6896 Dimethicone is the third ingredient
I have curly hair and use No. 9 (as well as No 3 on a regular basis). I was surprised that dimethicone is in several of Olaplex’s products, considering their whole line is meant to either repair or provide bonding within the styling products to continuously prevent damage. Silicones are some of the most damaging ingredients…so I called Olaplex and inquired about this. The rep I spoke with said that the dimethicone they use is molecularly different from the generic dimethicones in other brands. She assured me that their dimethicone is water soluble, and therefore does not build up on the hair causing damage. However…I intuitively do not feel this is trustworthy information. I remember learning about isomers in my chemistry classes. I’m pretty sure that isomers are supposed to be labeled to distinguish them, even if they are made of the same numbers of each type of atom. This is why I cannot believe what they told me. Their label would show the isomer name, not just “dimethicone”. Please, if anyone knows more about this than I do, correct me if I’m wrong. No.9 works SOOOOO WELL for my hair. It is so light and coats each strand so well that I can run my fingers through my hair so easily. I always apply a leave in first (Shea moisture brand), then No9, then aloe Vera gel (like what you get in the after-sun care section). It has been the perfect combination for my 3A hair. The no 9 makes it so easy to apply a stickier styling gel without tugging and pulling, which is characteristic of what happens when you try to style hair with a naturally rougher texture. It also makes retouching applications so easy and it doesn’t take much product at all.
@@marissac713 I don’t see that?
I am too! Did you try it yet?
I was so overwhelmed by all the different hair products (especially from olaplex), this video and your list that you email is a life saver, thanks so much! Hopefully I can figure out a good haircare regimen now!
I love olaplex 0 and 3 as well as no 7 the oil... I thought I would love the shampoo and conditoner too but it made my hair break! Used it once and then just gave it away.. really good info in this video!!
I love olaplex, it has restored my hair!
I found 0 quite hard to apply evenly. I use 3 as a preventative, but otherwise just take very careful care of my hair (medium thickness, fine, not dyed or bleached, silk pillowcase etc)
The hairdresser really likes the condition of my hair, so I'm pretty happy with that.
That's awesome. it's always better to prevent damage than have to repair it 👍
@@BlowoutProfessor cheers. My hair is so fine that I have to be very careful, but it's all good really
I been on my natural curly hair journey since 2019 and I have mixed and matched so many different "curly girl" and "repair" products I have heat damage and color change in my hair that my thin fine hair lost it's natural curl pattern I have finally found my perfect routine and yup that includes olaplex and Moroccanoil products. I finally get healthy ringlets and consistent good hair days 🙌
No.8 really helped my hair without the use of no3. If my hair gets even more damaged i will have to invest in no.3. I also have no.6 and my frizziness has been kinda toned down. My hair is frizzy due to the damage of bleaching my hair. But honestly i dont think everyone needs all the olaplex. I would just invest in 3 products at the most.
Agreed! You definitely don't need a bunch of Olaplex products 👍
You have such a likeable way of talking and charisma! Thank you for all the information 🙏🏼
I’ve got naturally dark brown hair and had the stupid idea to go blonde 😄. It worked, it looked pretty, also thanks to Olapex. But after 2 years I got fed up and had my hair dyed brown to avoid ugly growouts. Olaplex 3,4,5,6 and 8 are absolutely unbeaten to me 💁♀️. Whenever I use other products, my hair will punish me. My hair is thick and curly, I straighten it 3x a week.
I love Olaplex, but I have damaged hair right now. Olaplex has helped me repair my damage. You are right that the shampoo and conditioner does make it feel heavier. But my hair was wrecked. So I’m willing to live with it for a month. However, I did get the suggested products from your website. I love the styling products and the routine has helped Olaplex work better.
I bought 0 and 3. I found 0 drying. When I used 3 with coconut oil (thought process was to seal in the healing attributes and slow/prevent the product from drying out (could be bogus) but my results were 💯 better than using coconut oil alone or 3 alone so it worked for me
Do you leave the coconut oil in or shampoo it out with the 3?
I’ve used 0,3,4, and 5…used twice, and it’s amazing. I’m 50 with thin, fine hair. So far, no heavy hair…and my hair is looking amazing, and manageable.
I put my hair in rollers, and it’s looks exactly like my sister’s hair, who does not have fine, thin hair.
Such a concise video and yet packed full of information!! I wish I had watched this video before I went and buy the shampoo and conditioner, using them at every wash and wondering why my hair felt so icky right after wash 😭
This was so helpful!!!! I was confused? But now I see the light
The most helpful Olaplex video I've seen. I've been wanting to try the line but had no idea where to begin. Other videos felt mesmerizing and involved using - what seemed to me - to be too many products! Thanks so much. Glad I found your channel today!
I was a bit overwhelmed with knowing where to start with products at this price range, this video was clear, concise and super easy to understand!
Best video ever! I’ve been trying all of them and I have thick fine hair with lots of flyaways but otherwise healthy. It’s good to know this is too heavy for my hair - as I was using it a lot and not loving the results over time. I have number 6 and was using way more than a pea!! I can’t wait to try it again….correctly. Thank you!
I’d use that over the 9. I have coated hair that doesn’t easily wash now. I only had a trial sized tube but it is too heavy for fine hair regardless of how much you have. Leaving this here just in case you’ll read it or in the hopes of helping someone else.
I’m a newbie hairstylists (grad in 2018) and maaaannnnn do I appreciate your advice!
Ok so I promise this has been my routine before I found your channel. I currently use No. 6 and 7. I use 6 right after I wash my hair whether I straighten it or not. Although it s not for repairing the hair, I have noticed a huge difference since I started using it. When I do straighten my hair I apply this first, a little less than pea size, let it sit. I follow it with the Moroccan oil smooth lotion for Blow-dry, about the same amount. By this point my hair smells Amazing! And then I follow it with this like very generic heat protectant spray my salon lady uses ( I will admit once this finishes I plan to buy a professional one) I like to do about 3 sprays ON MY HANDS, i don’t like to spray directly on my hair, and honestly, my blow dry last Long time and I get nice shine. Once I am done blow drying it ( I use Lange blow dry brush) I do apply No 7 to my ends and reapply it my third day. I am currently pregnant and get really hot, and sweaty, so I expect this styling to last me a little longer once I give birth. I have natural curly hair, my hair is up to my trapezoids and it’s color treated. Honestly this routine has been the best one I found. Based on your videos I realize that Morrocan oil is for coarse hair so I do plan to cut back on their product, and maybe this will help my Do last. Truly hope this helps someone :)
Thank you so much! My hair is damaged and needs help. I look forward to your videos.
Tip my stylist gave for extremely damaged hair like mine was she said wash my hair then use number 3 for the most time I can I only did my ends and slept with it at night and my hair revived like a miracle I also leave it for 2-3 hrs when I'm on a rush it 💯 works
I am thinking to try #3. How often do you use it? How long did it take to notice results? I have fine hair and wanting to treat it after bleaching as that did some damage that caused lots of split ends 😭
@@MissSmurfey try it for 7 days straight if you want to see big results fast, alternatively one a week or month. It completely depends on how bad the damage is
Always clarify before using olaplex 3. That’s how you get max benefits.
@@MissSmurfey split ends can only be removed by trims. Olaplex just helps keep your hair stronger as you grow it out. It says use it 1x/wk or 2-3x/wk for damaged hair. Results and time vary based on your hair damage.
Appreciate your honesty about the repair products, thank you!
I use O&3. I absolutely love it. I have curly, easily tangled, wirey hair.this system really helps prep my hair to receive moisture too. Applying it on an old blow out, my curls pop and are more defined. Cuts down on my drying time and blow dry. I’ll be looking into getting 6 when I return for 0&3.😊
Excellent video. To the point content and sweet description. Thank you. Personally, I feel the same about these products. 3 and 7 made in heaven!
I'm working my way through a trial size set that consists of 0,3,8, and a shampoo and conditioner. It's making a huge difference in the way my hair feels while I'm trying to grow it long again. I cut it all off last year. I'll just be ready to use a regular shampoo and try their styling products soon.
I just found you on TH-cam a few days ago, and become a HUGE fan.
You are so genuine and honest and on top of that, very handsome 😂
I can not stop binge watching your videos. I will buy the products you recommend and finally, start taking care of my frizzy hair with the right products. Thank you!
The stuff actually mad my hair fall out like crazy. I tried it two different occasions and both times my hair came out in clumps. After I stopped using it, the hair loss stopped. It might work great for some but not everyone.
My hair started falling out around the time i started using it
It caused massive shedding and breakage for me. This reduced hugely when I stopped using it
Are you African American? Or black ? With curly or kinky hair?
@@trinistar1930 white with dry hair
As someone with super damage bleached hair I will tell you olaplex 0,3,4,5 has saved my hair from extreme breakage. I only use it once a week. And it’s improved…
Do you use any other shampoo and conditioner on other hair wash days? And if so, which ones?
Just wondering what is the longest time you recommend to leave no. 3 in for?? Is overnight too long?
Thanks for the great info
Amazing explanation, short and to the point and without overhyping every single product, thank you!
Definitely love heavy oily hair🤣 going to add those to my collection. Coily springy curls here🥰🧚🏾♀️
11:47 am. I think you are amazing Chris! You are doing such a helpful , kind service by weeding out unnecessary hair products. 🤗
I know hair care corporations will do ANYTHING, to sell mass products. They think nothing of misleading us , ruining our hair, and wasting our hard earned money , on their bogus products. As long as it fills their pockets. Frankly I don’t know how they sleep at night!
It’s that kind of greed that has taken over a lot of the world. But that’s a whole other story, for another day 💁🏼♀️.
It’s nice to see someone who’s expertise , and passion for all things hair ,didn’t change him into one of those greedy execs. Rather , you truly want to see people looking ,and feeling good about the condition of their hair. And freely share your wealth of knowledge, saving us money and time. I truly applaud 👏 you my friend !!! You are pretty easy on the eyes too ☺️. Just saying ….😉
I am so glad I found you Chris! I have been struggling with my hair for a while and I binge watched a stack of your videos yesterday and have learnt so much, thank you. Your knowledge is what I need as it is just all so overwhelming - I love your straight to the point, no-nonsense videos. Now I can concentrate getting my broken hair back to how it once was. Thanks again from Lincolnshire, England 😘
Wow! Thank you so much, I really was wondering which olaplex productos to buy as I can’t afford all of them right now. This was what I needed to watch.
The best :
N°3 to use before shampoo
N°6 styling product, do not use too much, gets rid of frizz
N°7 adds shine, great for fine/ médium hair, but he prefers n°6
no6 doesn't do anything no matter how much I use. is it heat activated?
@@TaxingIsThieving Hello there ! I am not gonna lie, I have no idea, because i never used any olaplex product on my hair, I was just taking notes here
The bond conditioner made my hair feel clean, lightweight and super silky soft, no difference in time in between washes, love this product! I have short, men’s hair, that had been bleached over 10 years ago numerous times. Love the feel of this conditioner, don’t particularly experience your points on it.
Can you do a video using the product on someone so we can see how much is used and how it's applied properly please
Hey! That's a really really good idea. I'm going to definitely do that. Thanks for the idea :)
@@BlowoutProfessorHey there! I Love Your Videos!! Were you able to make the video applying No 3 by any chance? 👀👀
I've bleach my hair white 20+ years and for me 4P and 4C are perfect together..First the purple, leave it in for approx 4 minutters, rinse well and the I use the blue, scrub it well and leave it in for about 10 minutes and the slightly purple teint is totally gone, and snow-white. It's the perfect combo for after bleaching....I love it BUT remember only buy from authorised dealers as there are so many useless copies being sold!!!
I use 4&5 as my regular shampoo and conditioner, during the covid period I let my hair grow out quite long, it's fine but reasonably thick and just a little wavy and I find I don't need to shampoo more than once every couple of weeks or so, bear in mind I really don't use styling products and air dry my hair, every few months I use a clarifying shampoo to get rid of build-up and I'm good to go. I also use 0 and 3 but only infrequently perhaps every couple of months. This routine has helped keep split ends to a minimum and leaves my hair in really good shape. I do agree that 7 is amazing, love to use it on my ends when they start to feel dry. I'm interested to see if you have an opinion on the new clarifying shampoo they put out, shall go to your channel and check it out.
I can’t wait to see your review on the NEW NO. 5 OLAPLEX leave in
With no3, can i only apply it on my problem areas (mids to ends)? Or should I must apply it on the roots as well? /:
I love Olaplex, I’ve used it for a few years.
Grateful for your honest review. No wonder the shampoo and conditioner suck! I’m on the fence about 9 and the heat protection is a great selling point. But you gave me a reality check- 6 would actually do the same
Yeah the Shampoo/conditioner turn a lot of people away. But a lot of their other products are great. 🙏
This is hands down the best olaplex video out there. Thank you for putting so much information in such a short video. I just got the whole range and was really wondering why they made the n9 when n6 seems to be doing quite the same job, so thanks for clearing that up. I just gotta say though, n3 and n8 have saved my hair when I went full on platinum and they're really my faves.
I love Olaplex 4 & 5 (plus, 6, 7 mixed together)..it saved my hair when my stylist over processed my highlights and it was breaking off! You're right on with 0 and I won't buy 9 again. While my hair has grown out from that disaster, I continue to use 4, 5, 6 & 7. The key with 6 & 7 is to not use too much. I moved from the beach to the desert and my hair is much dryer here. This combo of product keeps it from drying out. What I don't love is that they now sell it on QVC😡

Great video.! I use no. 0 + 3 before showering. Kerastase in the shower. And then no. 6 before blow drying.
Thank you sooo much for this!! 💕💖💓I’ve been looking into Olaplex 0,3,4,5, and 7 after getting a Japanese straight perm since my current shampoo is just a smoothing shampoo and was overwhelmed by the different numbers and uses for each product. 😅 This video is so helpful! I was wondering if Olaplex 4 & 5 cause buildup and if so, would a clarifying shampoo help remove the buildup?
