What Is Olaplex?

Olaplex is a revolutionary hair treatment that repairs and strengthens damaged hair from within by targeting broken bonds inside the hair structure itself. Working at a molecular level, its patented active ingredient (Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate) finds damaged bonds and reconnects them, restoring strength, shine, structure and overall hair health.  The results are smooth, shiny, rejuvenated locks that will make you look and feel fabulous.

Olaplex is 100% vegan and cruelty-free, making it an excellent choice for clients who are mindful about the products they use.

In-Salon Olaplex Treatments at Johnson Blythe

In Salon Olaplex Treatments Johnson Blythe Hertford Harpended HairdressersStand-Alone Bond Repair Treatment (Nº.1 + Nº.2)

The classic in-salon Olaplex service is the most concentrated bond-building repair option available.  Nº.1 Bond Multiplier and Nº.2 Bond Perfector are used together without a colour service, delivering intensive structural repair for hair that has been compromised by bleaching, chemical treatments, or repeated heat styling.

This treatment targets bond repair rather than moisture, so your stylist may recommend pairing it with a moisture treatment for the very best results.

Best for: Hair that feels weak, brittle, or prone to breakage.  Particularly good for bleached or heavily processed hair.

Typical service time: 15 minutes as a stand-alone service.

Olaplex Added to Colour - Nº.1 Bond Multiplier

Nº.1 Bond Multiplier can be added directly to colour during any hair colour appointment at Johnson Blythe.  It provides protection against chemical damage throughout the colouring process. Suitable for all hair types and all colour services. 

Best for: Recommended even for less intensive colour treatments, to get the best from your hair.

Typical service time: applied during your colour service.

Olaplex Nº.2 Bond Perfector - Post-Colour Care

Used in combination with Nº.1, the Nº.2 Bond Perfector is applied after the colouring process to nurture and restore the hair. Applied as a créme for ten minutes before the backwash, it helps seal and perfect the bonds following your colour service.

Best for: Recommended after all colour treatments, to get the best from your hair.

Typical service time: Applied for 10 minutes before the backwash, to help seal and perfect the hair bonds.

Which Olaplex Treatment is Right For Me?

Olaplex Treatments Hertford Harpenden HairdressersYour stylist will assess your hair and advise you on the right treatment, which will depend on your hair concerns.  Here's a rough guide:

  • Severely Damaged or Colour-Treated: For hair compromised by bleach or high heat, use the two-part strengthening system. Nº. 0 Intensive Bond Building Treatment
    acts as a primer, while Nº. 3 Hair Perfector provides deep repair.
  • Dry or Dehydrated Hair: Focus on products that deliver intense moisture without stripping colour. Try Nº. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner and Nº. 8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask to restore hydration and shine.
  • Brassy Blonde or Grey Hair: To neutralise yellow tones while repairing, use Nº. 4P Blonde Enhancer Toning Shampoo and Nº. 5P Blonde Enhancer Toning Conditioner.
  • Product Build-up or Oily Scalp: Nº. 4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo is a weekly deep cleanser that removes minerals and excess oils.
  • Frizzy or Unruly Hair: Use Nº. 6 Bond Smoother, a leave-in cream that controls frizz for up to 72 hours.
  • Fine or Thin Hair: Traditional formulas can sometimes feel too heavy. Use Nº. 4FINE and Nº. 5FINE, which provide volume and strength without weighing strands down.

Olplex FAQs

Can I leave Nº.3 Hair Perfector on overnight for better results?

«

You may have seen this recommended on social media, but in fact, leaving Nº.3 on for longer than the recommended time does not improve results.  The product is designed to work most effectively during the recommended treatment time, and using it as an overnight leave-in treatment is not advised.

Ten minutes is sufficient. Simply follow the instructions on the label for the best results.

Will Olaplex work on curly or textured hair?
