  • I have thin dry hair and this helped it to feel more moisturizing. My favorite by far is the four-in-1 moisturizing mask which I use about once a month. One bottle has lasted me for a couple of years. I highly recommend the moisturizing mask.

  • My hair was literally breaking off by the handful and after my first use…I could already tell my hair was healthier.

  • I've tried a few of the Olaplex products and I'm just not a big fan of this brand. I don't like the shampoo and conditioner (No 3 and No 4). The shampoo is okay if you only use it once a week max as a clarifying shampoo, if you use it any more then it's too drying. The conditioner is average, nothing special. Doesn't detangle well or make my hair smooth/soft/etc. I also have the leave in bond protector (No 9) and the hair perfector (No 3) and don't find either of them really do much. The only product I think is worth it is the purple shampoo (No 4P). It's the best purple shampoo I've ever used, it really works to brighten blonde hair/remove brass tones. It's quite strong though so I would only use it once a week. Also, it does temporarily dye my hands purple. Overall, I don't really recommend Olaplex, the products are way too expensive for what they are.

  • Olaplex is great. I found their system a little too fussy for the outcome, but I’d go back to their products any time. I have very straight, fine hair. Too much moisture weighs my hair down but I didn’t have that problem with olaplex. For the price, there are other brands that I like better for my hair type.

  • Way too expensive for what it is will not purchase again. Olapex is overrated in my opinion.

  • I don't color or bleach my hair anymore, but I still use Olaplex. I have used the shampoo, conditioner, and a couple of the other treatment products. It's the first thing I think to purchase when my hair is in a terrible state, feeling damaged or brittle. It's a household name.

  • I swear I tried so hard, for years, to jump onto the olaplex fan bandwagon but their product just doesn't do it for me. I've met multiple women with hair like mine, frizzy a bit course fine mostly curly kinky, that had so much luck with olaplex to the point where they no longer had to use styling products. I was religious with their routine I had every single product in their line and yet I'm not sure if it's that I'm missing a step or overdoing something but my hair just feels dried out after. Disappointing. I do commend them though for their multiple products that when used in the right sequence with consistency I've seen great results on other people. I also appreciate the they provide easy to understand instructions and directions around their product.

  • Keeps my hair so healthy and smelling good all the time

  • I noticed that with the shampoo my hair can feel stripped after using it it creates this weird texture that I dont care for. But the smell of the products are amazing and I love the leave in treatment and the hair mask for damaged or bleached hair.

  • GAME CHANGING products! Whenever I use any of their products my hair feels the best it’s ever been. I get hydration and volume at the same time. Prices can vary but overall I love this brand.

  • great product but i still think there’s other brands out there with a lower price point.

  • I've tried a few things from Olaplex. The no.7 bonding oil is great, not too sticky, a little goes a long way. The no.4 and 5 shampoo and conditioner did not do much for me and are a bit too expensive to see no results. I also felt like more hair than expected fell out but I can't say for sure since that can be caused by sOOO many factors. The no.3 was a waste of time. In conclusion, love the oil, leave the rest (for me) :)

  • I feel like there’s comparable cheaper brands on the market. It is alright. In my opinion just a loud brand name. I got Bond strengthening cream and compared to half priced ones from other popular brands….and you know- same results

  • No my favorite hair products. I just don't feel like it does as much as it claims. To be fair I do have extremely dry hair with no color or heat ever on it.

  • My absolute FAVORITE hair system! A little product goes a LONG way! I’m on my third set of product and I will never go with another!

  • I used olaplex’s travel size kit while I was on vacation, and my hair was so soft, so smooth, and stayed cleaner than it usually would for the duration of time between washes. I would use it again!

  • I cannot say enough good things about Olaplex! After using their products, my hair feels healthier, stronger, and smoother than ever. The bond-building technology truly works wonders, especially if you have damaged or colour-treated hair. My hair is softer, shinier and looks professionally treated every time. I've noticed far less breakage, and it's been a game changer in restoring my hair's strength. The No.3 treatment, in particular, is a mus-have! Highly recommend Olaplex to anyone looking to transform their hair. It's worth every penny!
