Using Olaplex In A Perm... And Shampooing Right Away!
Вставка

- I have two goals in this video.
1.To find out if you really shouldn't shampoo immediately after a perm
2. To find out if Olaplex makes a difference for perm results, even allowing you to immediately shampoo
No, I'm not paid by Olaplex. I wasn't paid to make this video.
I just want the truth... - Навчання та стиль
Love this!! Love the movie clip. I think of a it every time I talk to a guest about a perm. 😜olaplex was designed originally for perms
When you use the olaplex it also gives a better curl pattern!
I permed my own hair and added the olaplex in the perming lotion, got amazing perm. Hair was in better condition than before 😳
Hi what brand of chemicals for perm have you used?
@@kristinalukaric8766 hi.. I use quantum zotos perms.. lots of tutorials in youtube. Just add olaplex with it.
How long did the curls last?
@@jaybea3158 ratio? 😀
I guess same as the one for bleach probably, no?
You deserve so much more views !!!
Thank you!❤️
Wow, this was a very well-put-together experiment! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
So they key is do not use olaplex 2 during the process
Now I donot add it to the perm solution I do perm solution just as it is then neutralizer and without washing out the neutralizer put the olaplex right on top of that
The olaplex website instructions for using with a perm suggest treating hair with a mixture of #2 and a protein treatment (maybe aphogee?), allowing that to fully dry, then wrapping and using #1 with waving lotion and neutralizer. Thoughts about this?
Olaplex has 2 versions of perming with Olaplex. The one you brought up is for more compromised hair and then there is the "standard" method that I did. I think method 2 is worth a try but mostly I was testing whether I could really shampoo after and compare to untreated hair.
My thoughts on Olaplex is that it is great for keeping hair feeling good but would not expect it to work on hair that is already too compromised for the service in the first place 😁
Nice video and thanks for making one as it guides you on perming with olaplex . Quick one when you add olaplex no. 1 to perm lotion and neutraliser , do you need to apply it ( olaplex no 1 diluted in water) to rods after neutralising and leave for 7.5 mins?
Thanks for watching. Olaplex recommends two different ways to perm with their product. I chose the simpler of the two.
I applied 1/8 of #1 to the waving lotion and then later to the neutralizer. I processed the neutralizer for manufacturer recommended time (5 min) the only difference was what Olaplex calls creep time. After rinsing the waving lotion and towel blotting just let sit 5 min before applying neutralizer
When is #2 applied ? ???
Have you considered an air perm? Doing the first step then instead of using the neutralizer you just make sure you rinse very well then leave the rods in overnight. Next day take them out. I still don't wash for a couple days but my curl lasts until I cut it off
I have heard of this, it's my understanding that, that's how perms were originally processed. I could be wrong though. I'll have to look it up. But also, I should do a side by side video on this because I've never tried for myself. Thanks for watching!
I’m considering getting a perm (mine grew out). But 3 months ago I bleached the hair framing my face. I was stupid and didn’t consider how you shouldn’t bleach permed hair. I had a salon do demi permanent color to hide the bleach fail. My perm has almost completely grown out now, but I know I still have bleached hair. Can I get another perm safely?
Thanks for the question! It is tough to say without feeling your hair. There are perms that are formulated specifically for bleached hair but the two main factors would be the porosity and the fact that the perm will almost definitely fade your current color. If you are willing to accept the color fading then consider how much your hair tangles when wet. If it is brushed out and then tangles immediately when wet, I wouldn't recommend a perm.
Just to insure that curls will develop. Would Rolling the rods on and sleeping with them for a night help? afterwards in the morning you wet the hair & then add all the solutions .?
I don't think it would help. I would be more concerned about creating frizz by sleeping in the rollers. The perm works on different chemical bonds within the hair than a wet set does.
After adding the perming solution and washing it off then drying the rods would it be best to towel dry, air drying or blowdrying them before adding the neutralizer to finish off?
I always do 3 steps. Towel blot, then use a paper towel( for extra absorption) and towel blot each rod individually. Finally let sit for 5 min. The sitting will help it dry a little more but really it helps start the neutralizing process. Thanks for watching!
Can I wet my perm after 24 hours
Can you get fresh permed hair wet even if you don't wash for a few days?? Beside shampooing what are some definite don'ts??
Great question and thanks for watching!
There are so many different perms they all vary a little but the safest bet is, getting hair wet is ok but its important to style afterward. The reduction process is still happening and any prolonged manipulation could effect the curl. Minimal brushing/combing, a slippery pillow case like silk or satin, and avoid water sports. At least for those first couple days
Morning! I have highlighted bleach hair,. Can olaplex protect my hair if I get a perm? Thanks
Long answer. TLDR- yes but with caution.
There are some additional factors at play. Highlighting and perms always damage hair. Though we do have some control over how much damage is caused. My advice for Olaplex is that it will make a good service better but won't make an impossible service great. It helps but if your hair is already damaged to the point of breakage then it might not help enough
If you would've deep conditioned after the shampoo would that have made the curls even looser?
I think you are on to something there. Especially for the first two. Even Olaplex instructs not to use their part 2 when perming
@@CosmoDad Is there any treatment like permanent hair straightening which can make hair permanently water resistant.
I recently seen a product for permanent hair straightening which is claiming to be water resistant!
Is that possible?
Please let me know
Hey I have a perm
I’m wanting a reperm but my perm curly hair is still there
What precautions should I take to avoid bad damage to my hair as it’s already damaged
Bond builders like Olaplex can help but depending on how much growth you have, there is a technique called a root perm where you leave the ends out and only wrap and apply to the new growth.
would also like to know the amount of #1 in the solutions and if you use # 2 after or before
I used 1/8 of an ounce of #1 in both the solution and the neutralizer. As per Olaplex's instructions, I did not use #2. Thank you for watching!
then what can i do, i just get the perm and i shampoo it right away at the same day..how to fix it?.this is the 2nd day of my perm
It's hard to say. If you shampooed early and you feel like it ruined your perm then it is often ok to re-do the process after 2 weeks but I would leave that up to your stylist's discretion because neither all products or hair are the same and it may or may not be advisable to re-do so soon
What number olaplex are you adding to the perm solution and conditioning solution and how much did you add to each? thanks
There’s zero, 1 and 2 the 1 you’re supposed to squeeze like a little bit I forgot what the instructions say and mix w the perm solution
Do you think it would be safe to perm hair that has been bleached if you use Olaplex? I have olaplex 1 and 2 because I’m naturally curly, but after bleaching and dying my curls were left much looser. I want to spot perm the sections where the curls aren’t as tight, but fear I will break my hair.
My personal take is this- If you wouldn't do it without Olaplex, you may not be wowed by the results with Olaplex.
If it were me, rather than spot perming I would try a reparative treatment like Keratin Complex PBO- Natural Curl Finish, to try and restore the natural curl rather than re-manufacture it.
@@CosmoDad how do you feel about K18?
Is it possible to close cuticle after permanent straightening as it was before?
The cuticle layer will never quite be the same
Is it ok also if I use olaplex in both solution and neutralizer but skip the shampoo part? What difference it will make?
Not sure what difference it will make. The manufacturer always recommends shampoo after using #1, 2 or 3. If you try it, I would love to hear how it goes. Thanks for watching!
Don't laugh at me
But chemical treatment like hair straightening, hair dye can form a thin water resistant layer? Then does it matter if i wash my hair after 24-48hours?
How chemical treatment works on hair cuticle?
Does conditioning or other emollient etc work on cuticle?
I promise I won't laugh.
Hair dye does not form a water resistant layer.
With some dyes just rinsing your hair instead of shampooing can help the dyes "set" and possibly help them last longer.
Chemical treatment is too vague of a term but most treatments including conditioners help close the cuticle keeping essential oils in the hair so it can feel softer. They will never make the hair unable to get wet.
how much olaplex did you add into the solution and neutralizer??
1/16th Oz in each
@@CosmoDad perming lotion how much ?
Does the same apply to osmo chromoplex?
This is the first time I have heard of that product. From what I can tell, it doesn't seem like Osmo recommends their bond builder for chemicals beyond color and lightener
Hi! In what amount you put Olaplex in perm chemicals?
1/8
My question is, can you use olaplex after hair is permed for maintenance or would this disrupt the bonds.
Thanks for watching! It will not disrupt the bonds. If you want to do a stand alone treatment day of I would reccomend before the perm. Otherwise wait till a later date after the perm service
@@CosmoDad how long would you recommend to do an olaplex treatment after a perm?? Concerned I may have mushy hair after highlights, a perm that didn't really take, then hair color, a hair glaze/toner, re-permed all done within 4 months.....
Ooof. Your hair has been through alot. You should be safe to do Olaplex within a week after the perm. You may also consider a treatment that coats and protects the hair like Redken Lengthen and Strengthen. Hang in there
@@CosmoDad thank you!
When you shampooed did you use Olaplex no.4?
I did not. I think I used Matrix Keep Me Vivid. Thanks for watching!
Would it hurt to use #2 ???
Probably not. Though the conventional wisdom is to not condition after a perm because the hair is still processing and you don't want to weigh it down. I don't see why it would be harmful to use #2 other than it is not directed by the manufacturer. Thanks for watching!
Is there any treatment like permanent hair straightening which can make hair permanently water resistant.
I recently seen a product for permanent hair straightening which is claiming to be water resistant!

Please let me know
To the best of my knowledge, there are no beauty products that will make the hair waterproof. The hair will always be penetrable by water. Products that offer humidity resistance don't prevent water from getting in the hair. They actually make the water penetrate more evenly.
@@CosmoDad hair gel, hair wax, are these humidity proof?
Actually i have seen a product for hair straightening which mentioned it has organic silicone and it's water resistant i got curious.
Thank you so much for your reply.
@@beautybrain3304 Oils and waxes do help repel water but surfactants like shampoo easily help remove them from the hair. The hair straightening product claiming to be water resistant sounds like marketing language to me. The real red flag is "organic silicone" what does that really mean? Silicone doesn't come from plants so, to me, it already makes me feel like the label is misleading.
@@CosmoDad so it has Aqua, Mono Ethanolamine, Thioglycolate Alcohol ,Behentrimonium Methosulphate Propylene ,Glycol, Dimethicone Centrimonium Chloride Ammonia Cetly Alcohol etc .
So is water resistant and humidity proof are different?
The real problem is that there really isn't standardized language to to describe humidity resistance. It is really just a marketing term that they are hoping people will interpret in a positive way. Usually when a product is claiming humidity resistance, they are trying to say it will reduce frizz and help keep hair styled. The bottom line is that no beauty products will prevent water from getting in your hair when you wash it.
Did you use conditioner after you shampooed?
Yes, I used the Olaplex #5
@@CosmoDad Thanks!!! You’re awesome! Love your videos!
Thank you so much!
Should I shampoo before getting perm
As long as you are referring to a permanent wave like in this video, then yes. Although your stylist should use a clarifying shampoo on your hair before you start so it's not necessarily your responsibility unless you and your stylist have something prearranged. Thanks for watching!
