OLAPLEX reviews indicate the brand is effective for repairing and strengthening damaged hair, although results vary. A strength is its patented bond-building technology, which many find transformative. However, a common weakness is the high price, which some feel is not justified. Despite this, OLAPLEX is praised for its salon-quality performance and is recommended for damaged or color-treated hair, making it a worthwhile consideration for potential buyers.

  • Our filtration system is not good, so we always have hard water. My hair has been brittle and unappealing in the past year, so I tried their bond repairing series. Life-changing. My hair is back to silky soft texture!

  • Olaplex seriously saved my hair! I have very fine hair prone to easily breaking. I could never find a product that made it stronger but was also light enough not to leave my hair looking weighed down. The combination of these products have made all the difference. My hair looks and feels healthier!

  • i almost only use olaplex and i honestly don't know why. it's dependable but the prices are kind of crazy for what it is. i would think about trying out cheaper brands or things that might work better, no3 is great tho

  • I love using the Ola Plex, shampoo and conditioner daily for my hair. I have curly hair and it actually isn’t done at all, but I still love these products because they make my hair clean and feel very soft.

  • Olaplex has become a staple in my hair care routine, delivering noticeable improvements in strength, shine, and manageability. Their patented bond-building technology works to repair damaged disulfide bonds within the hair, making it especially beneficial for those with color-treated or chemically processed hair .

  • Honestly olaplex was recommended to me by my hairstylist. I used it for maybe over a year. It’s quite pricey, but I don’t really think it did much for my hair for the prize. It’s a good product and you have to know how much to use.

  • I tried the viral hair oil and I wasn’t super impressed. For one it’s very yellow so if you have platinum hair, do not use as it will taint it. it’s a little liquidy. I put it on my hair and it makes my hair feel fine but nothing out of the ordinary or results that could be obtained a cheaper brand. I like the innovative quality and packaging. You don’t have to use much either just a couple drops. it’s good for a deep nourishment as it is an oil. I use this as needed with my hair and tips feel dry

  • I kept hearing amazing things about this product from friends and from online reviews so I tried it, and honestly, I wasn't super impressed. Especially considering the price, this Hair Perfector is not something I would consider worth it for the results you get or lack thereof.

  • I’ve only tried Olaplex’s bonding oil, and I originally got a tiny bottle as a free sample with a Sephora purchase. Honestly? This little bottle has lasted forever—and it seriously works so well. I love using it when my hair feels dry or frizzy, and it always helps smooth everything out without weighing my hair down. It also doubles as a heat protectant, which is a huge plus. I use it sparingly, and even though the bottle is tiny, it’s lasted me months. Whenever I finally run out, I definitely plan on purchasing the full size. From my experience, it’s an amazing product that does exactly what it claims to do.

  • I dont buy into these brands that put fancy chemicals into their products, i like a simple natural animal based approach.

  • i have only tried two of their products, i think they were okay for the price i did not notice a huge difference in my hair

  • I’ve found that some products do work and work well but it adds an additional step in my routine.

  • The hair oil is quite nice, but I haven’t been a fan of any of the other offerings in the line. The shampoo and conditioner were particularly disappointing.

  • I love using the No3 before I detangle and dry my hair and then use the No7 before and after I style it. I feel like they really keep my ends looking nice and healthy. I haven't used the whole system as I prefer to use plastic free hair care as much as possible, so I use my dip shampoo and conditioner bars along with my olaplaex which keeps my hair looking great

  • Good quality hair products that actually help restore hair damage

  • I used Olaplex for over a month, and while I really wanted to like it, I just didn't feel like it was transformational. My hair felt clean, and conditioned, but it didn't improve the overall texture or damage. I would recommend it if you just want a good basic shampoo and conditioner, but dont expect miracles

  • I think the best part of using the shampoo and conditioner is there is hardly any fragrance. I like this so it's not overpowering. I use the No. 4 & 5 and my hair is so soft afterwards and it stays nice and clean for 2 days before it starts getting oily and in need of another wash. Also No 9 is good to smooth out any flyaways and dry ends.
