Olaplex is one of the most popular hair care brands and is recommended by numerous hairdressers. But what can the products really do and how do they work? We'll show you what's behind the brand, how to use the different products and other useful tips!

Effects and benefits of Olaplex

Olaplex is a hair care brand with various products that strengthen and fortify hair. The US brand relies on its own developed and patented Olaplex system.

This technology is designed to effectively repair broken disulfide bonds in the hair and even eliminate split ends. The treatment is also designed to make the hair more resilient and healthier, preventing new hair damage and breakage.

Woman brushing her hair

Above all, Olaplex prepares your hair perfectly for intensive chemical treatments such as bleaching, so that it is not damaged too much. But it also provides all hair types with plenty of moisture, protects the hair color and reduces frizz. It also leaves the hair wonderfully shiny and smooth.

Who is Olaplex suitable for?

In general, all Olaplex products are suitable for all hair types. You don't have to use all the products in the series to benefit from the special technology. However, individual products can be perfectly combined with each other to give your hair the best care.

The Olaplex products and their application

The Olaplex range consists of eight main products, which have now been supplemented by other products.

OLAPLEX® No. 0 and No. 3

At the heart of the Olaplex range are the OLAPLEX® No. 0 Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment and the OLAPLEX® No. 3 Hair Perfector, which are the brand's most popular products and form the intensive treatment for damaged hair .

Spray OLAPLEX® No 0 onto dry hair as preparation. Then apply the Hair Perfector evenly, leave it on for 10 minutes and then rinse it out. Then wash your hair as usual with a shampoo and moisturize it with a conditioner or mask.

OLAPLEX® No. 6 and No. 7

As final styling and care products, the OLAPLEX® No. 6 Bond Smoother , a leave-in styling cream, and the OLAPLEX® No. 7 Bonding Oil, a styling oil, protect your hair from environmental influences and heat.

OLAPLEX® No. 6 is a moisturizing leave-in product that is ideal for smooth looks. This is how to use it: Apply a small amount from the lengths to the tips on damp or dry hair. Then comb through well and style. For a more intense effect, the cream can also be left on overnight.

Styling hair at the hairdresser

OLAPLEX® No. 7 is a particularly light oil that is suitable for all hair types and is non-greasy. Both provide great shine and counteract frizz.

The oil is very economical, so you only need two to three drops per application. Simply unscrew the bottle, turn it over and gently tap the bottom of the bottle once or twice. Collect two to three drops in the palm of your hand and apply to damp or dry hair. Then style as usual.

OLAPLEX® No. 8 and No. 9

The OLAPLEX® No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask is an intensive, moisturizing mask that repairs your hair from the inside. You apply it to towel-dried hair and wash it out after 10 minutes. You can then style your hair as usual.

With the OLAPLEX® No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum you repair hair damage caused by external environmental influences and prevent it.

Thanks to the silicone-free and light formula, it is ideal for fine, curly or wavy hair. At the same time, it provides a lot of shine and suppleness. Apply the serum to damp hair as the first step in your styling routine. Work from the roots to the tips.

More OLAPLEX products for beautiful hair

The OLAPLEX® No. 4P Blonde Enhancer Toning Shampoo and the OLAPLEX® No. 5P Blonde Enhancer Toning Conditioner are ideal for blonde and bleached hair. Thanks to the purple pigments, an unwanted yellow tint is neutralized.

Apply the shampoo to wet hair and lather well. Leave the product in for one to three minutes, or up to five minutes for a more intense result. Then rinse, apply the conditioner and rinse thoroughly after one to three minutes.

Do you want a thorough deep cleanse every now and then to remove any remaining product residue from your scalp and hair? Then the OLAPLEX® No. 4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo is the ideal choice.

It not only removes product buildup, but also mineral residues, heavy metals and chlorine that harm the scalp and hair. It is still very gentle so that your hair is not dried out.

You should only use the deep cleansing shampoo once a week instead of your regular shampoo. Work the product from the roots to the tips, let it lather well and rinse it out well after five minutes. Afterwards, the No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner and the No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask are perfect for providing your hair with plenty of moisture.

With the OLAPLEX® No. 4D Clean Volume Detox Dry Shampoo, Olaplex has launched its own dry shampoo. It supports a healthy scalp, provides volume and freshens up your hair without leaving a powdery residue.

Divide your hair into even sections. Shake the dry shampoo well and spray it onto the roots from 15 to 25 centimeters away. Leave it on for 30 seconds and massage in.

The OLAPLEX® Volumizing Blow Dry Mist gives your hair volume and creates a soft, shiny blow-out finish. It also provides your hair with plenty of moisture, protects it from the harmful heat of a blow-dryer and repairs hair damage thanks to the OLAPLEX® Bond Building Technology it contains.

Simply spray the Blow Dry Mist onto towel-dried hair, especially at the roots. Use a round brush when blow-drying to create even more volume.

Last but not least, in the Olaplex range you will also find an effective eyelash serum that stimulates eyelash growth: the OLAPLEX® Lashbond Building Serum . The formula is developed with the innovative OLAPLEX peptide complex technology and ensures longer and thicker eyelashes.

It is best to use the serum in the morning and evening on dry skin. Then let it dry for about 90 seconds before using other products.

Olaplex recommendations for different hair types

Although all products can be used by all hair types and hair structures, there are certain combinations from the series that are particularly suitable for specific types.

Here we show you how to best care for and strengthen your hair with Olaplex.

Curly and wavy hair

Curly and wavy hair needs a lot of care, but it doesn't weigh it down. This way, the curls retain their structure.

Olaplex for every hair structure

The intensive treatment with the OLAPLEX® Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment No. 0 and the OLAPLEX® Hair Perfector No. 3 is ideal for this. This builds up and strengthens the sensitive hair structure.

To ensure extra suppleness, the OLAPLEX® No. 9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum is the optimal choice. It defines the curls and protects the hair from harmful environmental influences.

Uncolored hair

Uncolored and untreated hair is generally less damaged. Of course, split ends can still occur, but the hair is subjected to less stress, such as bleaching.

Repair of bleached and colored hair

OLAPLEX® No. 4 and No. 5 are the ideal choice to maintain hair health and provide the scalp with neutral care that does not upset its balance.

The OLAPLEX® No. 7 Bonding Oil is ideal for use before styling and as a great shine booster. It protects your hair from styling heat so that you don't damage it too much and ensures shine and suppleness without leaving a greasy film.

Chemically treated and colored hair

Bleaching and other chemical treatments put a lot of strain on your hair. It is important to give your mane lots of care and love.

The intensive repair treatment in the form of OLAPLEX® Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment No. 0 and OLAPLEX® Hair Perfector No. 3 supports the hair structure and effectively repairs hair damage.

Bond Building Hair Treatment: Olaplex No. 3

You can use the combination perfectly before your next visit to the hairdresser , so that your hair is well prepared for the chemical treatment and does not suffer too much damage.

Since treated hair also needs a lot of moisture, a particularly nourishing anti-frizz combination is recommended: the OLAPLEX® No. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask and the OLAPLEX® No. 6 Bond Smoother.

3 tips for using Olaplex

There are three things you should definitely keep in mind when using it. We have summarised them briefly for you in these tips:

  • Proteins and keratin: The special Olaplex technology strengthens your hair from within. Other strengthening ingredients such as proteins and keratin can cause your hair to be over-conditioned and overloaded.
  • Pay attention to the exposure time: Some people want to give their hair even more care and, for example, leave the OLAPLEX® Hair Perfector No. 3 on for several hours or even overnight. We can only advise against this. Please follow the application instructions. Too much of a good thing can often backfire and cause even greater damage.
  • Correct dosage: Olaplex products are formulated to be very effective. This means that you only need small amounts – often just a pea-sized portion or a few drops of the product is enough.

Frequently asked questions about Olaplex

What should not be combined with Olaplex?

Keratin and proteins in combination with Olaplex can cause your hair to become over-conditioned and overloaded.

In the INCI lists you can recognize keratin and proteins by the following names:

  • Ceratin
  • Ceratin
  • Hydrolyzed Keratin
  • Keratin (Juvexin)
  • Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
  • Hydrolyzed Soy Protein
  • Hydrolyzed Oat Flour
  • Hydrolyzed Keratin
  • Hydrolyzed Silk Protein

Which Olaplex is best for damaged hair?

All products in the Olaplex range work with the special technology that repairs damaged and brittle hair. For a particularly intensive, repairing treatment, we recommend OLAPLEX® No. 0 Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment and OLAPLEX® No. 3 Hair Perfector.

We hope this article has helped you and you have found the Olaplex products that are right for you!
