Olaplex has completely changed the hair game, gifting women around the world with gorgeous, healthy locks without having to compromise on your favourite colour treatment.
Since it was handed down from the hair gods in 2014, Olaplex has become a staple at Kinks Hair and Beauty, helping to reverse the stress and damage dyes and heat styling unleash on your strands.
While Olaplex was originally a 3-step system which began in the salon chair, the take-home range of products has slowly expanded, with the most recent release of the No. 7 Bonding Oil sending hairdressing world into a tizz.
What is the Olaplex difference?
The simple three-step process includes a patented active ingredient that works on a molecular level to seek out broken bonds in the hair that are caused by chemical, thermal, and mechanical damage.
You can use Olaplex to restore compromised hair, or add it to another service to provide the ultimate breakage insurance.
No. 1 Bond Multiplier and No. 2 Bond Perfector are the go-to products for colourists, protecting the hair during the harsh colouring process and safeguarding each strand to prevent further damage.
The first step is a concentrate added to all developing processes, including permanent and semi-permanent colour, direct dyes, highlight tints, perming and permanent straightening.
The second step has the same active ingredient as the first and continues to rebuild and restore any remaining broken bonds after the colouring process, ensuring the strongest, shiniest and healthiest hair possible.
Olaplex’s 3-4-5 system
No. 3 Hair Perfector was the original at-home treatment to be used weekly, which continues to reduce breakage and visibly strengthening hair to improve its look and feel. It is also the perfect pre-treatment for future chemical services.
In 2018, this was supplemented by the specially formulated No. 4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo and No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner.
No 4. And No. 5 work together to protect and repair damaged hair, split ends and frizz by re-linking broken bonds. The highly moisturising, reparative shampoo and conditioner leaves hair easy to manage, shiny and healthier with each use.
For something a little extra, Olaplex unveiled No. 6 Bond Smoother, a leave in reparative styling creme which banishes frizz, hydrates and protects. The smoothing cream is suitable for all hair types, including coloured and chemically treated hair, and also works to speed up blow-try times.
What’s all the buzz about No. 7?
Joining this all star line-up is No. 7 Bonding Oil, the first oil product in the Olaplex range.
This highly-concentrated and weightless reparative styling oil dramatically increases shine, softness and colour vibrancy, while minimizing fly-aways and frizz.
This little beauty also provides heat protection of up to 450 degrees.
The product also works to strengthen and protect hair structure, restore healthy texture and improve manageability.
Not only is the Bonding Oil paraben, sulfate and phthalate free, it is also cruelty free and vegan.
How do I use the No. 7 Bonding Oil?
To enjoy the glorious results, simply remove the cap, turn the bottle upside down and gently tap the bottom of the bottle with your index finger to dispense a metered drop.
Work two to three drops through damp or dry hair from mid-lengths to ends and style as desired.
