OLAPLEX reviews and discussion

great quality and noticed a difference instantly! i have fine hair that gets tangled so easily and this made my hair so much more manageable. it is pretty fragranced which i think smells great but could see it’s not for everyone

Some of Olaplex's products have been great for my hair but it is very expensive. I usually try to wait for their holiday sets before stocking up on them. I also wish they didn't have 2-3 products that had similar effects to make my hair routine a bit more seamless.

I liked Olaplex products at first, but found that over time I didn't feel like they were working very well and maybe this was just due to my hair type. I also found the hair oil to not absorb very well into my hair and just felt like it was sitting on my hair rather than doing much. Maybe these products work better on someone with a different hair type!

I've tried the full range of Olaplex products, and found that they're not all created equal. The Number 6 smoothing creme and the Number 7 hair oil are my personal favorites for my dry, wavy hair. I found that the shampoo and conditioner were fine, but didn't notice a significant enough benefit for the price.

Had good results and less breakage when mixed with color in the salon.

Back in the day Olaplex has the IT girl, very high tech and new with its bond building technology. However, now there are more innovative products on the market and some of them offer the same thing as olaplex with a cheaper price tag. I have used the shampoo and conditioner and it really did nothing for my super dead bleached blonde hair. I do like the No3 and No8 masks though, but I would not repurchase because I like cheaper hair masks like the EVA NYC one or an amika one

Generally works as advertised. It’s my “base layer” on taming my grey hair and its shitty texture. (Another leave in mask and then a little heat protectant spray and she abides, mostly)

good

Form the smell to the feel of my hair after using the shampoo and conditioner, i love this brand. Now that i no longer color or bleach my hair, i use it far less frequently. However, i still use the oil because i like the feel of my hair, the glossiness, and lack of buildup that happens after repeated use.

I used Olaplex shampoo for a while- it lathers really well, smells nice and your hair is left with that 'just left the salon' feel. I started to notice over time it totally changed the texture of my hair from wavy to very straight with little volume. Stopped using it for that reason, but my Mom really likes it.

I used No.7 and I experience breakage. It also completely changed the texture of my hair. Unfortunately, this product isn't for me.

Overhyed! And made me breakout!

The olaplex hair mask didn’t work well for me. I didn’t see a difference in my hair and was not worth it to me.. especially for the price

Didn’t do much for my hair! I don’t have very damaged hair, so maybe I wasn’t the target user. I have thinner hair so it left me a bit greasy.

Olaplex's entire line is a hair transformation in a bottle! From No. 1 to No. 8, it's a journey to stronger, healthier hair. It's like a salon experience at home, leaving your locks looking and feeling fabulous.

Can never go wrong with Olaplex. My hair is bleached blonde so it’s pretty much my go to for shampoo/conditioner. A bit pricey but at least your hair will look and smell good. Most especially you won’t go bald so I’d say it’s worth it in the end.

love the shampoo and conditioner and the number 7 oil !

Tried the hair oil and while it was great the cost was not worth it. Ran out within a month on a $30 bottle, competitors have same quality and cheaper.

Olaplex is very hit or miss, I feel that your hair either gets along with the products or it does not. I personally had some hair loss and hair thinning issues with some products.

I'm crazy about haircare, and have tried a lot of salon-quality brands over the years. I have tried Olaplex's shampoos & conditioners, styling products, and bond protectors, and Olaplex consistently leaves my hair feeling healthier and more moisturized than other brands. Even during my bleach blonde phase when I used their purples, the shampoo and conditioner make my hair feel less like straw than other heavy hitters like Kevin Murphy and Kerastase. My 2 go-to products that I'll recommend are the No. 3 Hair Perfector (for when I air dry), and the No. 9 Bond Protector (for when I use heat-styling tools). I comb through my hair after towel drying. Both help my hair dry faster and prevents frizz and frying. For hair oils, I prefer Fable & Mane's for the scent, but Olaplex's is still a great option. A small amount of Olaplex also goes a long way, so no need to overload your hair with product. Downside of that is that you pay a lot for a little, which is the primary the reason why I stopped using their shampoo & conditioner. My only other complaint is that the product is a pain to get out of those tiny bottles! You have to keep the bottle upside down or you'll spend forever waiting for the product to come out. Not sure what Olaplex can do here, but better squeeze options for sure!
