Q&A

Showing 5 out of 8 Questions
Q
I used this in the shower on wet hair right after I shampooed. I rung out my hair, but did not towel dry it, so it was very wet. Will that still work?
Asked by manda
Official Answer By Olaplex - Brand Engage
Yes, it will still work; however, for best results we recommend applying No.3 to damp, towel-dried hair so the formula isn’t diluted and can penetrate more effectively.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can this be applied to dry hair before getting in the shower, or does it need to be applied to wet hair?
Asked by Kay Kay
Official Answer By Olaplex - Brand Engage
No.3 can be applied to damp, towel-dried hair or to dry hair before showering, but applying to damp hair is recommended to ensure even distribution and optimal results.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can this be used on hair with permanent (dye) color?
Asked by Inked
Official Answer By Olaplex - Brand Engage
Yes, No.3 Hair Perfector is safe for permanent color. It strengthens and supports the hair bonds for healthier, more resilient color-treated hair.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Can I use this as a step in dying my hair?
Asked by tay
Official Answer By Olaplex - Brand Engage
No, No.3 should not be mixed into hair dye or used as part of the coloring formula. No.3 is a pre-shampoo repair treatment meant to strengthen hair before washing. If you’d like, you can use No.3 in the days before coloring to help keep your hair strong, but it is not a color additive or a step in the dyeing process.Was this answer helpful to you
Q
Will this have any effect on virgin hair? I have bad mechanical damage at the roots from improper brushing and tight styles.
Asked by renee
Official Answer By Olaplex - Brand Engage
Yes, OLAPLEX No.3 can help strengthen and repair all hair types, including virgin hair. It works on a molecular level to rebuild broken disulfide bonds caused by mechanical, chemical, thermal, or environmental stress. For your concern, it may help improve strength and reduce breakage at the roots over time with consistent weekly use.Was this answer helpful to you

My hair has NEVER looked this amazing

I never write reviews, but I had to for this. I would like to start off by saying that this will not cure your split ends, nothing can do that. In order to get rid of split ends, you will have to cut them off. HOWEVER, this is the only product that will actually repair damage (that's not split), p...

Itchy Scalp, Dandruff and Hair Break

My hair is pretty normal and healthy. No chemicals, no treatment, no heat. I decided to use Olaplex to give an extra shine. I purchased n3, 4 and 5. I regret to say that after only 1 week of use, I realized my hair was breaking a lot. After 2 weeks, I could not stop scratching my scalp and my part...

Hair Type Very Curly Hair

Definitely felt the moisture retention after one use. I plan on continued use. I have naturally curly hair, regularly dye my hair and either blow it out frequently or use a diffuser. If you are on the fence about buying it, I highly recommend it.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
