I first have to say, I don't typically write reviews UNLESS the product blows me away, which is rare. To give you a little background about my hair. I had extremely HEALTHY, LONG, THICK blonde hair! It fell to the middle of my back, It was absolutely beautiful. I went to get it colored to give it a break from the highlights, I was going to change it to a strawberry blonde, which I have been many times before and other than blonde, its the only other color I like on me. When I went to the salon, they messed up the color. I ended up with hot pinkish, purple roots and a grayish auburn, mid-shaft to ends. I was in the salon that day for 7 and a half hours. They had to bleach my entire head and leave it on to get all of the screwed up colors out of my hair, resulting to EXTREME chemical damage and breakage. I went in with my hair being all one length to having bangs that were never even cut into my hair. My hair was destroyed and they had to take over 5inches off just to get the ends to LOOK healthy. My hair now sits on my shoulders and has broken pieces all over the top and mid section and all around my hair line. I have literally cried about this since it happened 5 weeks ago. It took me forever to get my hair exactly the way I wanted it and now I am starting over. My hair is no longer manageable, it is kinky and dry and looks it! The salon I had gone to was a new salon closer to where I moved. Prior to this salon I had been going to my original hairstylist for 15 years (I'm 30) so half of my life one person has touched my hair. I live two hours from her now so I decided to give a different salon a try and it was a mistake. I will now be driving 2 hours to go to her every 8 weeks. I texted her about 2 weeks after this all happened and she told me right away to order this product. I didn't hesitate. I ordered it and received it the beginning of this week. I have used it twice so far and I will tell you what, after the first time I noticed a difference! I am excited to see after a couple months and using this 3 times a week (Extremely damaged hair should use it more than once a week). I also have been sleeping with it on over night which I notice gives me better results. This is not a conditioning treatment, so it does need to be shampooed out. I have a feeling this product will be what saves my hair. I will post before and after pictures once I actually do my hair so you can see the difference!

An absolute must-have for hair care
To make a very long story short, I did the dumb thing a few weeks ago and DIY bleached my hair platinum blonde. This isn’t the first time I’ve been platinum so was prepared to maintain it after, but I wasn’t prepared for the damage that DIYing would do to my hair! *nervous laugh*Washing and brushing through my hair was an absolute nightmare after two rounds of 20v bleach and a round of toning. My hair looked and felt like dry grass! Enter: Olaplex no. 3.My hair is 3-4 inches past my shoulders and I’ve been using about half a bottle on my hair for each treatment. I have treated my hair roughly twice a week since I bleached it about a month ago and my hair is silky and shiny again.Here are some tips I’ve learned from this DIY platinum fiasco plus many years of having my hair bleached by a pro who introduced me to Olaplex:-Don’t let treatment times scare you away! I’m a working mom with young kids and my skin is delightfully acne prone so I don’t have the time or the courage to let a treatment sit on my head for longer than 30 minutes. Even 10 minutes will have huge impact on restoring your hair.-Pre-wash your hair with a gentle clarifying shampoo before doing a treatment. This isn’t necessary if you’re not using any product in your hair after washes but don’t skip this step if you’re using dry shampoo or any other products intended to coat your strands. This bonding treatment works best when applied to clean hair that doesn’t have product buildup in the way.-Make sure you’re using the right products in tandem with the Olaplex. If you’re using a super harsh shampoo & conditioner after treating your hair you’ll risk negating the effects of the Olaplex or possibly do more damage. You don’t have to use the whole Olaplex line (it’s expensive!!). Search Amazon for bond-repairing shampoos and conditioners and check reviews to see what others are saying. I’m currently using Fanola No Yellow purple shampoo for toning and Verb Bonding Shampoo + Biolage Hydra Source Conditioner as my regular regimen. I have thick but fine wavy-ish hair.-I highly recommend adding Schwarzkopf’s Fiber Clinx Sealed ends to your heavily processed hair care regimen. This product will keep the bond repair work going in between treatments. Apply to your dried ends daily and you’ll feel the results!-If you’ll be using Olaplex no.3 regularly like me, consider purchasing the 8.5 oz bottle! As of now it’s not available on Amazon but you can purchase it at Sephora for $60. You’ll get more product and it will cost you less in the long run. Good luck!
