OLAPLEX earns polarized reviews: many report visibly stronger, smoother, shinier hair—especially with No.3 Hair Perfector, No.6 Bond Smoother, No.7 Bonding Oil, and the 4P Purple Shampoo—while others experience dryness, heaviness, greasiness, or no lasting improvement. Reviews suggest it can work brilliantly for bleached/blonde or damaged hair but may weigh down fine hair and effects may fade without consistent use; some users also mention fragrance concerns and allegations of hair loss or irritation.

I really tried to convince myself this was the end all be all brand, but it made my hair pretty heavy and sad. HOWEVER I do love No. 6, it is a great heat protectant and makes my hair wicked soft

Too pricey for the quality

Does it make me feel rich? Yes! Does it do the job? Yes! Does it sometimes leave my hair a little greasy? Yes!

I use their purple shampoo to lighten up my highlights, but I only use it knowing it will make my hair a little weight knowing I will look a little greased up. It does wonders for my color tho!! I LOVE when my hairstylist uses their products overall, but I can't afford that on the daily. If you can, buy it!
I have tried Olaplex N.8 and I love this hair mask! Loved it immediately. It moisturizes and leaves my hair shiny, smooth, crazy soft and I don’t leave it on for particularly long. I use it once a month to keep things healthy. little goes a long way so don’t over-do it or it can make your hair a little oily.

I’m a fan of the cult classic #3 treatment and the bonding oil. I re-purchase during every Sephora sale. I try to use the #3 once a week and the oil on my ends on the nights before I wash my hair. Makes my hair shiny and smooth!
I had very high hopes in going in with this brand, not only because of the expense, but with how much praise I'd heard others giving it. I ordered the N3 product and I found that with my straight, more fine hair, it almost made it harder and greasier faster. I've found cheaper products that work better with my hair type.
I use multiple products from this line daily or weekly. I have curly hair on the drier side and I absolutely LOVE No. 6 (bond smoother) and No. 7 (oil). I recently ran out of the shampoo and conditioner but I will be repurchasing!

The price is hard to swallow sometimes but the products really work at maintaining the overall health of my hair.
I have locs, so my wash days will always be different than others. When washing my hair, removing build-up and clarifying my hair is a vital step. I need to keep my hair washed properly to avoid any breakage and olaplex is one of my favorite shampoos to use on my hair. I don't use it often but I use it on a timely schedule. It is pretty pricey and since I have a lot of hair, and need to use 90% of the botte just for one wash.

I will always pay for what I believe is worth the price, and I feel like olaplex is worth the price....not so much for the quantity given. My hair goes down my back and I have a select hair type and I feel like it's catered to a different demographic. That's ok but it doesn't need to be for everyone since has different hair types. i just wish there were more brands that did the same function for my hair type as well.
My hair is very important to me and it’s rather long so finding products that help me keep my length and keep is healthy is important to me. I used olaplex bonding oil and bonding cream every time I was my hair. These two products have kept my hair so soft and healthy over the past 2 years! The products also last for a very long time! I’ve had my original bottles for over 18 months now and I’m just now halfway through them.
I've used the No. 3 and the No. 8 pretty religiously since I was recommended them by a hairdresser a few years back. I never really invested in products before, my hair is super fine so anything I did would usually just relax out anyways. But using Olaplex was the first time I saw my hair looking healthy. It felt like a functional product that allowed me to care about my hair for really the first time. The No. 8 is definitely my favourite and I notice such a huge difference in my hair whenever I use it.

I feel like for the efficacy of the product and how long it lasts, the price feels reasonable.

The packaging was extremely exciting to unpackage. I bought the olaplex bonding oil, and when I first used the product it made my hair smooth, but later on it made my hair frizzy. I also have curly hair, so maybe it just isn’t made for my hair type. I have friends with straight hair who love it though. I don’t believe it is worth the money I paid for the product.

I would advise others to research the product based on your hair type.

I use Olaplex number 3 and I do love it. It smells really good and you can tell it actually works. I use it 1-2 times a week and the results are immediate from the first use. My hair feels so much healthier and softer after using it.
Feedback
The only thing I wish is that you got more. I feel like the bottle is pretty small, but I do get 5-10 uses out of it so it isn't the worst thing.
I have platinum blonde hair and I will not use anything other than Olaplex. The purple shampoo is the best on the market and my hair never feels dry or brittle after washing.
I've used No. 4 & No. 5 for a long period of time. The products are clean and hydrating, but I really didn't feel or see to much of a difference compared to other higher value products. The No.7 oil is great and I will repurchase. I would recommend trying travel size or gift sets prior to spending the money for the full size.
I understand the hype. Great feel on the hair helped repair and strengthen
Feedback
The price! Makes me not want to buy more when I run out because of the expense
Purchased and have used their hair protector. Truthfully, I didn't notice much of a difference. It did not meaningfully repair or improve the visible damage to my hair or its texture (my hair is not super damaged FYI but has some coarseness towards the ends). For the price point, I'm not sure it's worth it and am wondering if it's been overhyped.
I did try the shampoo for blond and I like it, but it's still a purple shampoo ! nothing exceptional

Saves my colored hair! Small amount goes a long way :)
Didn't love their shampoo/conditioner and treatment. Didn't notice a big difference in my hair especially for how expensive it is. I like their oil, but it's not the best that I've tried for the price point.
I use it for my hair and it did wonders! I really liked how healthy and shiny your hair looks with it
The products i have used have been great for me but I hate the price. Comparing Living Proof with it is slightly better for the same price. Very similar though, it comes down to the amount of product you need to get the job done.

Great packaging, great products!
