Most Helpful Positive Review Wow! I used this with the no.3 and my hair feels and looks so much healthier and stronger. I have always had pretty healthy hair. I never dyed it and only used heat a handful of times per year, but my hair was always breaking and it was freaking me out. After I found out about Olaplex, I decided to give it a try, and I'm glad I did. After just one use, my frizz disappeared. My hair would always be so frizzy on wash days and it always made me feel bad, but not any more. I wash my hair 1-2 times a week and after using this product only once, my frizz went almost wholly away and my hair was so much more tamed. My hair is also a bit curly/wavy (which I only recently found out about), when I'm in the shower it curls up, but when my hair would dry, it goes super frizzy and then tamed/straight the next day. I usually sleep with my hair in a braid, so I would wake up with defined waves, but wash days were a mess. After using this product, I notices that my curls/waves started to define at the ends and the frizz was gone. My hair now looks so much shinier and healthier and feels so much smoother and softer, THANK YOU OLAPLEX! I used this product on day 8 hair, after 10 mins I put in the no.3 and left it in for about 3 hours, then washed it out with my regular shampoo and conditioner. I have super thick, long hair (currently to my tailbone), so I used up around half of the bottle (I did put a little too much, so that's on me). I will continue to use it, but I will only apply midway down, because too much of the product is used up otherwise. I will be using this once a month. This review is my honest opinion. If you are contemplating on buying this product, you definitely should!
Most Helpful Critical Review Total waste of money I bought the whole system except for the leave-in conditioner, which they were out of. This product does virtually nothing. The sprayer is the worst and pretty much useless. It directs a single stream of spray down to your scalp which then runs down your scalp and neck and does not disperse through the hair. I had to take the cap off and pour a little in my hand to use it. I think I have another sprayer around, so hopefully I can get that to work. As far as the product goes, I used it alone and in conjunction with the #3 as directed, not saturating hair as directed, and leaving it on for the whole 10 minutes per product. This was totally useless. I noticed zero difference after using this product several times. I have not tried the #3 alone, but don't have much hope it will do anything more than the two products together. Nexxus used to make a preshampoo oil that was amazing. You just put it on the ends, and it repaired and nourished dry, brittle ends in a single use. Sadly, that was discontinued years ago. I had high hopes that this preshampoo treatment would be similar, especially with all the hype, but I have yet to see any benefit, unfortunate because the #0 and #3 together are $56.00 - a lot to spend for nothing. A little olive oil would do a better job.

I bought the 0 and the 3 because they are intended to be used as a set. I cannot re-purchase either as I cannot be sure they are not responsible for my hair falling out in clumps when I was it. I used it as directed, once a week. The nozzle is no good
Love!! A must buy!! 5

My hair has been damaged by over processing, this along with its counter part- No. 3, SAVED my hair!!!
meh 2
risssweat from warsaw, in
the product is nice but the sprayer is janky. you wind up wasting a lot of product because the sprayer doesn't distribute the product very well.
It's a must buy 5
Roxanne from Troupsburg NY
This product has helped my hair tremendously
Not buying from Ulta online again 2
Yep from N/A
The first time I received the package, it was leaking on the outside. I checked the inside and a bottle was broken. I talked to guest services and that was resolved. I'm not a fan that I had to go out of my way to return the broken bottle when I ordered online so I would not have to leave my house, but I dealt with that. I received the replacement bottle and it leaked in the package. I will not be going through another process where I have to find a way to the ups center. This was all a waste of my time and the product from the bottle that didn't drip, was not worth buying.
Great product 4
Mb from Georgia
Works amazing when you use it with #3. However I am only giving it 4 stars because you waste a lot. The bottle has only a jet stream. I recommend you buy a bottle that has a mist option and pour this in it.
I love this one! 5
Morgan from Chicago
Makes my hair super healthy.
Overrated and overpriced 2
dracarys21 from OKC
I used this in combination with the no. 3 and it made no difference to using the no. 3 alone, even though it advises you to use them together. Skip this one and get no. 3 and no. 6.
Decent Damage Treatment but Overpriced 3
Okscienceteacher from Oklahoma City
For the record, I have very thick, naturally golden blonde hair that it is highlighted and I prefer to keep platinum.
I used the 0 and 3 together after reading reviews. I also transferred the 3 to a small spray bottle.
During the 1st application I quickly surmised that I would be able to get 4 treatments out of the bottles.
I used it as a once a week deep conditioning treatment and left it on for 30 minutes each time.
Result- after 3 weeks, my hair was noticeably softer and more manageable.
I think if I were to continue using it for a few months, I would see an improvement in strength and softness. I'm just not sure if I will continue to purchase. It is pricey
love olaplex 4
connie from Brazil, IN

Truly GREAT product 5
M Smith from Ft Worth
Love this product can't believe how great it is.
Shiny Hair 5
CLD from Lakeland
First put product into a condiment squirt bottle to prevent waste from the spray bottle. My hair is mid-back length and have used it 3 times and have enough for 3-4 more applications. Using it with No. 3 so I only use enough to dampen hair. I've noticed big improvements and will keep using. Has an earthy smell, not bad at all, and doesn't last.
my curls are back! 5
Amanda from PA
I have frizzy, dry, long, color treated hair. Before the heat styling and coloring, my hair had 2C curls for many years, and I was so sad when they disappeared because of the damage to my hair. it was essentially frizzy, barley wavey, and very stringy looking (so depressing).
In comes opalex 0 and 3 used as directed together. As soon as I washed it, my curls were back and when I blow dryed my hair it looked like I got a salon blowout. Amazing!
Will be repurchasing after I use these bottles which will last a while. Thanks, opalex, for giving me my hair back!

Liz from Phoenix
For those of you who are complaining about the sprayer…there's a REASON it's designed like that! The company has stated that this particular product is NOT to be aerosolized and breathed in through tiny droplets!!! So for those saying that you'll switch it to a different sprayer good luck with your lung health a few years down the line. A little research would do people good before they go complaining about a sprayer that's obviously designed like that for a reason. What company would make a spray nozzle like that for a product (knowing it would get complaints) if it wasn't necessary? Besides that, this product (olaplex line) has saved my platinum hair. It's incredible stuff.
Works well but only enough for 2-3 uses per bottle 2
Mar Bar from Chicago
Directions say use throughout dry hair until damp. Do they not realize how much liquid it takes to dampen a full head of dry hair? I used it once and liked the results but there is only enough for one more use in the bottle. Not a good value.
Saw results with one use. 5
Owlpath from NY
works great but you do have to remember to use it on dry hair before shampooing hair.
Love the product hate the packaging 3
Molly L from Michigan
I absolutely love olapex. I have been using the whole system since Christmas. I do NOT like how this is packaged, it makes it extremely difficult to apply. The spray is like a jet stream, I end up spraying through my hair and wasting product. Please change the method of application.
Love! 5
Susie from Arleta, Ca
This along with all other products left my dry hair incredibly soft. In love. Worth the price.
Obsessed!! 5
Jasmine from Michigan
I've used this with Number 3 and wrapped my hair in a claw clip. I was able to do some quick things before rinsing it out in the shower & doing the rest of the routine.
so far it's doing the trick 3
K from Ohio
using with no. 3 before a shower. these products were recommended after a stylist burned my head and fried my hair with bleach, which is not an exaggeration. anyway, my hair likes these products.. I just really hate the spray bottle. it goes everywhere and makes it hard to get even coverage.
Pretty Good 4
Wild Honey from Tennessee
I have been using this with the Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector but I've only used it about 4 times so far. It seems to be ok, but I am not exactly overwhelmed with excitement about its performance. I will continue to use until the bottles are finished and I might purchase more along this line. I don't hate it and yet I don't love it but I'm thinking the more I use it, the healthier my hair will become. Going to ask my hairdresser's opinion in a few days to see what she thinks about the condition of my hair. That will help me decide whether or not to continue with this line. If I decide to continue, I will leave another review with 5 stars.
I would buy this product again 5
Kate from King of Prussia
A few months ago I had a Brazilin Blowout for the first (and last) time. The blowout resulted in breakage and damage to the front of my hairline. I came across the Olaplex products in my search for a conditioning treatment. The results were immediate and are amazing.
Very good 5
Maria from Connecticut

Olaplex Review 4
tlcypher from Greenville NC
I purchased the shampoo/conditioner after my salon treatment. I decided to go get the 0, 3, the 72 hr hair control, and the intensive moisture treatment. I've used for two weeks now, and I do believe that my hair is responding nicely. I do wish they had a scalp treatment that exfoliates and moisturizes the scalp to encourage additional growth.
Definitely rebuying 5
Lizard from San Diego, CA
I have damage from bleaching and used this along with No3. It left my hair looking and feeling flawless. I highly recommend this for repair. I know it's but pricey but worth it. My only complain is that I wish the spray was more of a mist, I feel you'd target the area better.
