I went from very dark brown/almost black Asian hair to platinum blonde, a color I’ve maintained for almost four years. I truly believe the only reason I still have hair on my head is because 1. my colorist is amazing and 2. Olaplex. Despite having pretty strong hair, I remember globs of it breaking off in the shower right after I bleached my mane. In a panic, I bought a bottle of Olaplex and my hair has been thanking me ever since. I hate how expensive a single small bottle is, but I truly can’t be without this. It’s reduced breakage and brittleness, minimized frizziness, and just generally helped my hair look healthy.
Promising review: “I had been coloring my hair several years and had keratin straightened hair, then wanted to go blonde, and my poor hair was so dry it’s hard to even work shampoo through it when wet. All I know is after using this one time, the shampoo and conditioner went through my hair like there was no damage, and after washing I can get a brush through my hair as well without tangles. After blow drying, my hair is swishy, and it has never been swishy. Feels good against my neck. This is a tremendous product. I think for the price there are about five treatments in the bottle for shoulder-length hair if using once a week. I left it on my hair for one hour. Very happy! This stuff is a miracle for my hair. And for $28 versus another brand’s five products at $148, I’ll take the Olaplex.” —SlinkyPuffs
Get it from Amazon for $28.
My colleague (pictured above) also swears by this stuff. Check out her Olaplex review here for more deets and some before and afters that’ll make you buy this in bulk.
