I learnt my lesson! I thought I'd save abit of money and buy off ebay. Never again! They are fake. Ill just go to space nk and buy,atleast I don't have to wait for post!
If you ever do, you should do the full Olaplex routine 0-8. I did it this week and the damage and dryness were just about non-existent. I used everything but their conditioner since I had their mask.
@@jakebeauchamp3com YES!!! 👏👏👏❤️ Since #8 came out, and after experimenting a little bit with it on its own, this is now the only way I’ll use it!!! Using #0 thru #8 in succession the way they recommend, really does optimize the patented proprietary benefits!!! But I do double/triple the time to leave it in than is recommended by the manufacturer, with a disposable cap on with each product to keep them moist longer because if you let it dry the active ingredient stops working. And I add heat for half of the time each product is in my hair, my theory is that it’ll help open the cuticle more or faster in order ensure it’s penetrating into the hair strand deeper and for longer. So this is my Olaplex routine: #0 with cap on for 10 minutes under heat, then another 10 minutes without heat to cool down. But I do wet my roots with water, as virgin hair isn’t damaged and so I don’t want to waste #0 on that particular area. I rather use it smarter and sparingly, this isn’t cheap stuff! I target my application on the actual damage in my hair. Then I add #3 w/cap on for 20 minutes under heat, 20 minutes w/o heat to cool down. This again I concentrate on mids to ends as that’s where the bulk of my damage is and only the tiniest bit gets on the roots when I comb it through to make sure there is even distribution. Wash & condition with #4 as directed. Then #8 cap on, under heat for 15 minutes, 15 w/o heat to cool down. Once again mids to ends and again the tiniest bit gets on the roots with a comb through to ensure even distribution. Rinse thoroughly with cool water and style with #6. DONE!! My hair feels healthier than it has in YEARS!!! Thicker, fuller and so much stronger, that’s what Olaplex has done for me!!! It’s really amazing stuff. Magical sorcery!!! 🥰♥️
Today I rinsed my hair. Used 3, shampooed with 4, used the mask 8 and rinsed. 6 and 7 to style no other products and my coarse thick curly hair was butter soft and easy to detangle. I absolutely LOVE 8 and will used again.
Legit one of the most underrated TH-cam creators. I’ve been following you for about a year and honestly I don’t understand how you do not have a bigger following!! Your videos are so thorough and honest and I always get excited when you post.
I love number 3 and I'm tempted by 8 but I'll probably just stick with number 3. It makes my hair super soft and healthy as it is and I just use regular shampoo and conditioner
Great video Abbey! This is what is confusing about Olaplex No. 3 - so many people refer to it as a 'pre-shampoo treatment,' but yet the company itself recommends to put it on 'after' you shampoo. Also, my advice for application of these products is to just apply them after you get out of the shower. Do some things around the house and then rinse them out. Ten minutes in the shower is a long time! Thanks again.
I have seen full-on doctors on here that don't go as in-depth as you do. Thank you so much for this; I plan to purchase at least one of these when my "organic" hair masks run out (great concept but weak effectiveness). (I have hoarded haircare with the last 2 years that needs to be finished first). Side note, your channel is GOING TO BLOW UP. Seriously, you are amazing! So helpful, and your content is super high quality. I can tell you spend a TON of time on these. It also helps to receive "beauty tips" from someone who walks the walk; you are beautiful, so that "halo effect" goes a long way here.
I prefer no. 3 only because it's easier to use, as I put it one and them do other stuff like watch TV or cook my dinner. While with No.8 you have to just stand there in the shower for 10 mins... this seems ok if you are a bath person but as a shower person, 10 mins feels awfully long when you are just standing there wet in the shower.
I loved your video! This video, and the other one were so helpful on how to use the products. It also helped me decide which products to buy first. I just bought No 3 and No 8. I will be rinsing No3 out in a few minutes and applying No 8 after that! I am looking forward to seeing a change in my hair. I am a healthcare worker who works in one of the hospitals in my city. Since the COVID pandemic, I have felt like I needed to wash my hair daily so that I didn't risk getting sick. I feel that the daily washing has helped me stay healthy but it has taken a toll on my hair, causing it to become dry and brittle with a fair amount of breakage. Again, thank you very much for the video, it was very informative. I look forward to trying out No 0 next once I see how No 3 (and No 8) impacts my hair.
Please that would be a great video! I was wondering how to use the olaplex 0. I used the #3. And I want to add the 0 and 8 to my routine. Would be great if you make a video of how to use the system.
I start with n0 (wait 10 min aprox), next n3 (leave it for around 2 hours) then n4 and n5 (once a week I replace n5 with n8). Finally I always finish with n6 and n7 ❤️
@@clarac9296 I don’t use 4/5, but I use 8 as a hair mask in between shampooing and conditioning so the conditioner and cold water lock in the moisture! I just replaced the Ouai Hair Mask with Olaplex 8 and I’m obsessed
As dude coming from cheap shampoos and conditioners Olaplex’s numbering system is super confusing so I just ordered #3,4,5,6 and 8 haha. My hair is currently super frizzy and split so I really hope all the hype around the olaplex brand is worth it😅
I use both of these products was wondering all these things! Especially how long to keep #8 on my hair for max repair. Can always count on you to clear things up. Thanks!
Thank you so much! I love the #3, hair oil and leave in so I will try the mask! These products have saved my frizzy, damaged bleached hair more than anything🙏🏻
Sooo where does No.0 fit in with that? It has to be on dry hair. So they’re saying, wash hair with No.4, skip No.5 if planning to use No.8. Dry your clean hair to then use No.0 followed by No.3 as that one has to be on damp hair 🤯 I’ve been using their whole range for 3-4 weeks now. I was having CRAZY amounts of breakage and noticed in my 2nd week my hair felt thicker and stronger, and noticed this last week I have next to no breakage when brushing my hair (I am seriously overdue a haircut too though!) If anyone’s interested, my routine is as follows (I keep the products on ONLY for the time specified on their bottles), Start with dry hair. Use No.0. Use No.3 on top without washing first. Use their shampoo TWICE. Rinse thoroughly before using the conditioner. Rinse thoroughly again. Use No.8. When that’s washed off I use my Aquis towel to get excess water out before adding No.6 with a few drops of their oil. Additional tips I’ve added in this time thanks to Abbey are: 1. Water filter in my shower because I have VERY hard water in my area. 2. Use and Aquis turban. 3. Use a tangle teaser wet brush. 4. Try washing less. I usually wash every 5-7 days
@@christinearters3769Yes, exactly. My first shampoo I use something else I like that cleans my hair really good. Such as Redken all soft or AG smooth. I have long bleached blonde hair and only wash it once a week so it might be why olaplex shampoo weren’t cutting it for me and I need that prewash before no 3?
Thank you for this information. I have been using olaplex for about 6 months now. I LOVE Olaplex my hair was dead it has come back to life. I do plan on trying #8 I can't wait to try it out. I have implemented some of your suggestions from other videos and it has helped with my hairs health.
I thought no 3 was for before shampooing? Lol. I do no 0 for 10 mins, don't rinse and put no 3 for around 20 mins. Then rinse shampoo, I put no 5 conditioner on the top of my hair and no 8 on the bottom for 10 mins, then rinse and towel dry, then some no 6 and a bit of no 7. Isn't that what the instructions indicate? 🤷♀️
This was super helpful but I’ve been using 3-6 for a while and it’s really annoying to hear you should use 3 AFTER 4 even though their label tells you to following 3 with 4 😅 feels like I wasted that whole first bottle of 3 so if they take feedback I’d share that
Use all of them.. that’s what I do. My hair has never been more amazing. Before using Olaplex, my hair was falling out like crazy from Covid 3 months prior. I use conditioner prior to the deep conditioner so my hair isn’t so tangled and I can comb my fingers through
That's true but your hair should be wet! I always wet my hair and leave it in overnight or if I forgot I leave it in for about 40 minutes and then shampoo+condition
Great review as always! Well done. I did put it on my list not long after first watch this review. I already use the 3, 6,7. I like it for the strength but like less for visible results. K18 on the other hand. I bleached my naturally curly hair a year and a bit ago. tried a ton of products along with olaplaex trio, but it wasn't until I recently got the k18 and my girls are better than ever. Bounce, shine, volume. Thrilled. I have gone without olaplaex for 1 month and no difference, but 3 months, huge difference so continued to use and will continue to use alternating with the k18. Pricewise, the same. You need a good mask with olaplaex, but no mask needed with k18. Tmrw I will be trying loaplex 8 mask. Excited. Have you tried the curl smith bond? Some (Manes by Mel) say its another version?
Packaging is better with 3! - 8 has a pointlessly solid plastic tube which gives you no warning it's running out, till it suddenly does-! Least with 3 you can see..
I would love to try Olaplex 3 and 8 but their pricing is ridiculously unfair. 100 ml for hair care is nothing. I do have products of similar price range and more expensive, but I’m getting at lest 200-250 ml of product. I hope they will review size of their products in the future.
The prices are really high and I cringe every time I buy a new bottle, but it really does make a huge difference in my hair. I use no 3 once a month and I usually get 9 or 10 uses out of the tiny bottle.
@@jenniferpearmain9557 I have lots of products from Kerastase, I also love Lanza and have a few of their products. Those are also pricy but at least I don’t feel robbed. My hair is long, almost reaches my butt. And I’m a tall girl. This 100 ml of number 3 will last max 2 hair washes. 28$ for using product two times is insane. I don’t even think I’ll see any difference after two applications. I don’t say they have to offer us 1 liter of product for 28$, but it could be at least 200 ml.
This is confusing that they told you to use number three after shampooing because it says to use before shampooing on the label. I have always used it before shampooing and have been underwhelmed, so maybe I will try after shampooing instead now.
As far as I know, you should shampoo your hair before Olaplex 3 if it’s quite dirty or with products buildup which would prevent it to “penetrate” your hair
I LOVE Olaplex 3, but I don't follow their directions. I apply to dry hair before shampooing. My hair is really healthy. I tried 0 but didn't really care for how my hair looked after using it. LOVE 3!!!
Just took a long bath this morning with both of these products. I’m literally obsessed. I got a sample of the no. 8 from Sephora, so I’ve been doing this regimen for 3 weeks and my dry brittle hair is already sooo much more healthy. I’ll never stray. 😂
Just love your hair reviews especially. You spell everything out. Very informative. I have been using Olaplex3 for quite awhile. I just started incorporating 0 with it and do like that. I just used the 8 mask today but no 0 and 3 before. I used the 4 shampoo and just 8 for 10 min. It was really nice and definitely feels like an Olaplex product on my hair. Very smooth and hydrated. I also used a minimal amount of Pureology Fanatic and then # 7 oil. I think it’s a winner.❤️
Thanks for making these videos because I love Olaplex and I always notice a difference when i use them on my hair. My daughter doesn;t like it for her hair she prefers 10
Thank u so much for making this very informative and helpful video I just picked up Olaplex #8 and watching this video am glad I bought it. Great content loved ur beautiful hair & smile blessings❤
Holy Moly! I just tried the 8 for the first time - paired with 0 and 3 and I'm 💯 blown away! My hair is dry and I live in a super dry climate.. #gamechanger
Please answer if you can, a stylist told me Olaplex will begin to dry out your hair if you leave it on more than 10 minutes. I have the entire line and they all say 10 minutes or a minimum of… Did Olaplex say anything to you about over processing? Thank you!
I got the mask and do like it. Prefer the Pureology hair mask in the purple tube. I do LOVE the Olaplex bond/oil combo though. My hair feels so soft when using it!
Love your Olaplex videos! You do an excellent and thorough job explaining everything. Also... i LOVE your lipstick color! Would you please share what brand/shade it is? Thank you!
Can you do a video about lamellar water? Its a new-patent-pending technology by the L'Oréal group. I tried it yesterday in the Elvive 8 sec Wonder Water and it's truly something else!!!
I’m confused again. I thought you shampoo after using 3. It makes sense that you want to use it on clean hair, so if you shampoo and then put in 3, you only have to rinse, you don’t have to shampoo?
Thx Abbey, this is so helpful , I have a except 0bond , and didn’t know if I had to use all together. Will try mask tonight, & skip the conditioner, but use3. It really helps to save money if u use these the right way. Thank you🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
I helped out all that products to believe me my gray hair is beautiful bouncy and I get a lot of comment especially for being but I've been a olaplex user for a year-and-a-half
Thank you for this review! I'm almost out of #3 and was debating on repurchasing or #3 or trying #8. I'm going to rebuy #3 now and try #8 when I'm out of conditioner. I love how easy it is to just apply #3 to my hair before showering and it doesn't really add any extra time to my haircare routine. I wash once a week and used to shampoo before applying #3. I stopped shampooing and just applied to towel dried wet hair. Honestly didn't notice any difference when shampooing beforehand.
Ditto 100%. Washing my hair upside down in shower when I first bought it years ago was so dam annoying so I switched to just wetting and towel drying hair to apply this for 30 minutes before I jumped in shower om hair wash days. Exact same results. I also dont use alot of heavy gunky styling products so for someone who does the definitely would want to shampoo first as this treatment wont be able to get through all the buildup.
Abbey. You are literally going to make me go broke! 🤣 now I feel like I need BOTH. Also, what are your recs for exfoliation/cleansing in the bikini area? I’m at a loss for that lately
Thank you! I can't remember where I heard it but was told by more than one TH-camr to use both 3 and 8 together. My hair came out fine but what a waste to use them incorrectly.
I have been facing immense hair fall since start of using olaplex range. I am not sure why this is for me as the reviews are so wildly positive. Anybody else facing the same issue ?
I really like When and how u break down Ingredients and explain why it matters! I was Missing this from your last vid about number 8 unless I missed it!! (Sorry if I did, can’t remember) Anyway thanks :) side note I love the dimension in ur hair right now
Thank you for this video! Very helpful. I’ve been using number 3 for years and not on clean hair eeepp, so I’m going to try that now. I just brought 8 and 5. I also topped up on my usual purchase of 3. I only wash my hair once a week and tend to use number3 and a hair treatment once a week. Should I use the number 5 or spend my pennies on something else? Xx
Please compare the Olaplex treatment to the Elizavecca Cer-100 Collagen Ceramide Coating Protein Treatment as I’ve heard it’s a dupe for less than $15!
Love that you reach out to the company to see what they recommend!
Loving these Olaplex reviews, very helpful but also makes me want to buy ALL their products😅
Do it. You won’t be disappointed!!
Hahaha just making the videos makes me feel like I need more 😂

I prefer no. 3 only because it's easier to use, as I put it one and them do other stuff like watch TV or cook my dinner. While with No.8 you have to just stand there in the shower for 10 mins... this seems ok if you are a bath person but as a shower person, 10 mins feels awfully long when you are just standing there wet in the shower.
Put it in before you wash yourself.
Scrub, shave, face mask ... you can do way more than just standing wet 🤔
shampoo first
rinse off that shampoo
apply no.3 (leaving on for 10 min w instructions)
rinse hair fully
apply no.8 right after
no conditioner needed
Can you do a new video now on how you would use all 8 products like a weekly routine

I would love to try Olaplex 3 and 8 but their pricing is ridiculously unfair. 100 ml for hair care is nothing. I do have products of similar price range and more expensive, but I’m getting at lest 200-250 ml of product. I hope they will review size of their products in the future.
The prices are really high and I cringe every time I buy a new bottle, but it really does make a huge difference in my hair. I use no 3 once a month and I usually get 9 or 10 uses out of the tiny bottle.
@@jenniferpearmain9557 I have lots of products from Kerastase, I also love Lanza and have a few of their products. Those are also pricy but at least I don’t feel robbed. My hair is long, almost reaches my butt. And I’m a tall girl. This 100 ml of number 3 will last max 2 hair washes. 28$ for using product two times is insane. I don’t even think I’ll see any difference after two applications.
I don’t say they have to offer us 1 liter of product for 28$, but it could be at least 200 ml.
I have no 3 since 2 months and there is still a lot in it!
This is confusing that they told you to use number three after shampooing because it says to use before shampooing on the label. I have always used it before shampooing and have been underwhelmed, so maybe I will try after shampooing instead now.
As far as I know, you should shampoo your hair before Olaplex 3 if it’s quite dirty or with products buildup which would prevent it to “penetrate” your hair
I LOVE Olaplex 3, but I don't follow their directions. I apply to dry hair before shampooing. My hair is really healthy. I tried 0 but didn't really care for how my hair looked after using it. LOVE 3!!!
0 prepares the hair for 3.
Apply 3 to clean, damp hair.
This video is super helpful. These are all the questions I had about these two. Liked and subscribed. Thank you!
Love this, I was literally thinking about this the other day, thank you for talking about both of them.
of course!
The Bis-Amioproply is a silicone and I believe it is a non water soluble
Love these types of videos! Could you do a video on Lamellar water...Loreal vs Redken 🥰
I'll add to my list!
Just took a long bath this morning with both of these products. I’m literally obsessed. I got a sample of the no. 8 from Sephora, so I’ve been doing this regimen for 3 weeks and my dry brittle hair is already sooo much more healthy. I’ll never stray. 😂
Just bought both! Appreciate you explaining how to use because I would have done it all wrong 😊
Just love your hair reviews especially. You spell everything out. Very informative. I have been using Olaplex3 for quite awhile. I just started incorporating 0 with it and do like that. I just used the 8 mask today but no 0 and 3 before. I used the 4 shampoo and just 8 for 10 min. It was really nice and definitely feels like an Olaplex product on my hair. Very smooth and hydrated. I also used a minimal amount of Pureology Fanatic and then # 7 oil. I think it’s a winner.❤️
I'm so glad to hear that!
Thank you so much for making this video! I just bought no 3 & no 8 and I am ecstatic to use them together based on your tips! ❤️🥰
I prefer 3 to 8. 3 is just amazing.
You are the one to watch! Great job, everything so clear an concise!!! thank you!!!
Thanks for making these videos because I love Olaplex and I always notice a difference when i use them on my hair. My daughter doesn;t like it for her hair she prefers 10
I picked up both these items for the Sephora sale. Omg I'm in love with just 2 uses❤️
Yay! So glad you enjoy
Thank u so much for making this very informative and helpful video I just picked up Olaplex #8 and watching this video am glad I bought it. Great content loved ur beautiful hair & smile blessings❤
Holy Moly! I just tried the 8 for the first time - paired with 0 and 3 and I'm 💯 blown away! My hair is dry and I live in a super dry climate.. #gamechanger
Please answer if you can, a stylist told me Olaplex will begin to dry out your hair if you leave it on more than 10 minutes. I have the entire line and they all say 10 minutes or a minimum of… Did Olaplex say anything to you about over processing? Thank you!
This is so helpful! I’ve been using both wrong 😂 gotta try to this way!
I got the mask and do like it. Prefer the Pureology hair mask in the purple tube. I do LOVE the Olaplex bond/oil combo though. My hair feels so soft when using it!
Love the pureology mask!!!
This is so helpful and answered all of my questions. Thank you :)
Very informative!! Thanks! And your hair is absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Can’t stop looking at it 😍🙏🏻
Where does Olaplex 0 come in to play? ’ve used them all and just bought 8.
Very informative 🤩 thank you help answering loads of questions
Love your Olaplex videos! You do an excellent and thorough job explaining everything. Also... i LOVE your lipstick color! Would you please share what brand/shade it is? Thank you!
Can you do a video about lamellar water? Its a new-patent-pending technology by the L'Oréal group. I tried it yesterday in the Elvive 8 sec Wonder Water and it's truly something else!!!
I love you talk about ingredients I feel more informed.
Happy Weekend, Abbey!❤️❤️
Thank you for this video! All the questions I was wondering about!
of course!
Thanks helped alot,my hairdresser said to use it just like you explained however use conditioner after the no 8 to seal.it in
Thank you soo much.. Cleared up my confusion on how to use.
I’m confused again. I thought you shampoo after using 3. It makes sense that you want to use it on clean hair, so if you shampoo and then put in 3, you only have to rinse, you don’t have to shampoo?
right!
Just got a bottle of n3, i have dry ends and breakage from heat damage. Will update with my results
Love your content and your informative videos, which you can slow down a bit while talking 🙏🏻💗
Thx Abbey, this is so helpful , I have a except 0bond , and didn’t know if I had to use all together. Will try mask tonight, & skip the conditioner, but use3. It really helps to save money if u use these the right way. Thank you🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
Thanks this gave me clarity
If you can only afford to buy the 3 or the 8. Which one would you buy ?
I think it depends on what your hair need at the moment
I helped out all that products to believe me my gray hair is beautiful bouncy and I get a lot of comment especially for being but I've been a olaplex user for a year-and-a-half
Omg i love Number 8 is so good for my destroyed hair even better than number 3 in the next week i will use the two products together 😱
I use No 3 and had NO IDEA it had to be rinsed! 😳 I've used it like a leave-in conditioner.
It's definitely a confusing product! I used to use it wrong too
Get/Use #6 as a leave in.
Thank you for this review! I'm almost out of #3 and was debating on repurchasing or #3 or trying #8. I'm going to rebuy #3 now and try #8 when I'm out of conditioner. I love how easy it is to just apply #3 to my hair before showering and it doesn't really add any extra time to my haircare routine.
I wash once a week and used to shampoo before applying #3. I stopped shampooing and just applied to towel dried wet hair. Honestly didn't notice any difference when shampooing beforehand.
Thanks. I was wondering about this
Ditto 100%. Washing my hair upside down in shower when I first bought it years ago was so dam annoying so I switched to just wetting and towel drying hair to apply this for 30 minutes before I jumped in shower om hair wash days. Exact same results. I also dont use alot of heavy gunky styling products so for someone who does the definitely would want to shampoo first as this treatment wont be able to get through all the buildup.
Abbey. You are literally going to make me go broke! 🤣 now I feel like I need BOTH. Also, what are your recs for exfoliation/cleansing in the bikini area? I’m at a loss for that lately
Thank you! I can't remember where I heard it but was told by more than one TH-camr to use both 3 and 8 together. My hair came out fine but what a waste to use them incorrectly.
of course! happy to help
This is SO SO SO helpful! Thank you so much!!!
I have been facing immense hair fall since start of using olaplex range. I am not sure why this is for me as the reviews are so wildly positive. Anybody else facing the same issue ?
Me too! Stopped using IT😩
it’s because of the pH of the shampoo it’s too high.
Great product, but Olaplex product line is just getting more confusing...
You should do a video comparing k18 and olaplex
This was very helpful! Thank you!!😁
Exactly the video I was waiting for.
The first ingredient in no.8 is dimethicone which is silicone, so that's not good.
What about olaplex 0?! Where does that come into the routine.. this line is so confusing with the numbers.
I really like When and how u break down Ingredients and explain why it matters!
I was Missing this from your last vid about number 8 unless I missed it!! (Sorry if I did, can’t remember)
Anyway thanks :) side note I love the dimension in ur hair right now
Thank you for this video! Very helpful. I’ve been using number 3 for years and not on clean hair eeepp, so I’m going to try that now. I just brought 8 and 5. I also topped up on my usual purchase of 3. I only wash my hair once a week and tend to use number3 and a hair treatment once a week. Should I use the number 5 or spend my pennies on something else? Xx
Please compare the Olaplex treatment to the Elizavecca Cer-100 Collagen Ceramide Coating Protein Treatment as I’ve heard it’s a dupe for less than $15!
ohhh I need to try that out!
Can you use a steamer or use a hooded dryer to deep condition with heat while using #8?
THANK YOU!! New subscriber :)
