What you said. The fear mongering has to stop. It just HAS to. Imma stick beside Olaplex ❤❤
☝🏾💕
I love olaplex ❤
Putting my shampoo in an applicator bottle made it possible for me to not section and get my scalp clean. I still section to condition/detangle/style. A couple of years in and I’ve gotten down to 90 minutes, but that includes a medical shampoo and actual shower activities. I’m not pressed to get it down any further.
I second the use of an applicator tip/bottle! My scalp health went up after I started using one.
90 minutes is goals! So many people keep recommending an applicator tip, I’m gonna have to use it for sure.
@@BrittanyMia Thanks! Actually your pace reminded me to slow down and really work my product in. Now I’m seeing way less frizz and can make it 5-7 days depending.
I heard a stylist suggest once that the reason for all these hair products-problems could very likely be
, that a lot of people are not washing the product out correctly and I can see that.
Likewise. I've seen some have been using the No. 3 as a conditioner, and when they get breakage they place the blame on Olaplex.
Great video! My next wash day will be 3 weeks since using Olaplex & i’d say so far, so good🤷🏽♀️ I can’t tell a MAJOR difference yet, but I’m gonna keep using it & monitor my hair. I wash my hair at least once a week, so I’ll definitely know when something is off. Can’t lie, once that lawsuit came out (after I had already bought the kit) I was contemplating returning it, but I trusted your opinion and just like you said; many stylists and other consumers have said that it works well for their clients. Do let us know how no1 & no2 works in comparison to the no0 & no3!
Using a shampoo brush or scalp massager solved the problem of scalp cleansing for me. I can't stand shampooing in sections and since I know I shouldn't use my nails on my scalp a scalp massager is perfect. My scalp gets clean and I stimulate blood flow to my scalp at the same time. Personally, I haven't had any problems with Olaplex. I've been using it for a couple of years. I mostly use No. 0 and 3, but I added the No. 4P when I ran out of my purple shampoo. I use 0 and 3 once or twice a month most times, but sometimes I'll skip a month or so depending on what my curls and coils are doing. As for the 4P, I just use it whenever my Mallen Streak seems dull.
Been using Olaplex for about 9 months and love it. I had been a perm girl for over 30+ years and Covid made me a natural girl. It helped bring my hair back to the natural (curl side) along with trims. Love it!
That's awesome 🤗
The lather you got with N°.4 and N°.4C 😍 Your curls looks so strong and healthy!! Thank you for sharing your OLAPLEX journey with us!!
💕🥰
I love Olaplex too, it’s the best product line I’ve ever used for my hair. I have damaged my hair with heat and I have a lot of breakage in between and have been using Olaplex for the past year. The breakage made it really difficult to manage my hair cos it tangled and matted my hair but with the help of Olaplex I’ve seen tremendous recovery in my bond build journey and the ease of my hair is simply unbelievable. No more tangles to struggle with for hours. Every Olaplex product works wonders for my hair and makes me look forward to wash days cos it’s simply easy, no struggle. I have 4C hair.
I used to use No 3 every so often, maybe once a month and never had any issue even when I did as an overnight treatment that I shampood out in the morning. No 8 was my immediate fav and I used this for quite some time until I noticed my salon had the Olaplex 4-in-1 Moisture Mask (salon only product from what i can tell). I bought it and loved it more than No 8 and have completely switched to using the 4-in-1. I no longer use No 3 cause I don't see a need for it. I bought a travel size No 4 and love it, so that one of my staple shampoos. I also have No 6, which I find is a really nice Leave-in that works well under the majority of my styling products. So my current Olaplex regimen consists of 5, 4-in-1 Mask and 6. For the upcoming Sephora sale, I might purchase Olaplex 7 - Bonding Oil just to give it a try while saving some coin.....or I might try the K18 oil. While Olaplex products aren't cheap, I feel like a little goes a long way with all of their products, which is definitely a plus!
I cannot wait to finish my number eight so I can try the 4-in-1. Thanks for sharing what you do. 🤗
Diluted shampoo is a go to to reach the scalp. Usually put in an application bottle and helps me use less shampoo too
Oh one more thing lol what differences would you say you can visibly see after 3 months of Olaplex? Ex: less shedding, tighter curls… etc
Op, I guess I should’ve listed these things lol. Less shedding, less breakage on my ends and my strands feel stronger as opposed to the overly soft and brittle feeling it felt before.
Great video again! I don't shampoo in sections, but I condition in sections. I did not know about the Olaplez lawsuit but I also have never used olaplex. 😅
Thank you 😊 well, makes sense haha!
The 4C shampoo is THAT girl!! The slip is crazy. 10/10
☝🏾🙌🏾
Also, there’s a salon version of no 8 to save money. I plan to have my plug pick it up for me
I was wondering if the 4-in-1 Moisture Mask was the salon version of the No. 8. I'll have to try it.
@@BrittanyMia yes it pretty much is according to content i’ve seen and better apparently. Could you imagine? 😂😂
@@SheReaDelSol I really can’t but I’m excited to try it because the way that number eight melts into my hair.. and there’s something even better? I need it 🙌🏾
I used to use Olaplex every other week also, and my hair shedding improved a lot. Ever since I stopped, I realized my hair has been breaking more. It's definitely a once in a while treatment and if you ACTUALLY have high porosity or damaged hair, it's great. That being said, it's still too pricey to justify the price for me. And I want to try alternatives before I go back. Anyways, great video! Your hair has been thriving with it!
That's understandable for sure. Have you tried the K18 hair mask? You don't need the whole line and i've heard it's highly recommend. My stylist also recommends it.
@@BrittanyMia I'll give it a try! I keep hearing good things about that leave-in stuff
@@artheaux666 when she used it on my hair, I was surprised. I can’t speak to it as a bond builder, but as a leave in mask, it was very effective. In order to get the bond building benefits, they recommend using it eight times in a row.
I use Olaplex 0, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 because it makes my hair feel strong, soft, and smooth. I think the problem with many people is protein overload because they have high protein in other products and then use Olaplex too and it dried their hair our or broke it off but it wasn't specifically olaplex, it was cumulative
Agreed!
There is no protein in Olaplex 😁
I didn't know about the lawsuit until your video. My experience: I used Olaplex 3 & 0 for a month and after a few weeks noticed significantly less breakage (my natural hair is coarse, high porosity by nature and prone to brittleness, even with protein conditioner) I didn't make the connection that Olaplex was working until I went 2 weeks without it and the brittle hairs started back breaking off. Needless to say I went back to my Olaplex routine and recently added the No. 8 😄😄
Is it really working if your hair can’t last two weeks without the product ??
Yeah, it's great! The No. 8 is 🙌🏾
The reason you’re hair might not feel stripped even when using a clarifying shampoo is because your hair is hydrated and healthy. Not that lesser quality products can’t make your hair feel stripped, but I’ve noticed that my hair feels better overall with any shampoo because it’s more hydrated and without crazy product buildup.
Huh, good observation I've never thought about it that way.
I bought applicator tops for all of my shampoo bottles. I squirt the shampoo all in my scalp and massage about 5 minutes before I even get in the shower. So all I have to do when I get in the shower is wet my hair, massage again, rinse and repeat. My scalp has been amazing since I started this. I have mid back length hair and I split my hair in 2 to wash.
Now this is smart. I bought an applicator bottle but not applicator tops for my shampoo bottles. I'll have to try using my current applicator top on one of my shampoos to try it out because adding shampoo to an applicator bottle seems like a lot. Thanks for shariiing.
Also, how in the world do you not get lightheaded during wash day?! Lol I do my whole routine in the shower as well (or try to) but by the time I get done shampooing & barely done conditioning, I feel like I’m about to pass out😩literally. I have to rush out the shower & sit down.
Ventilaion
Hydration
Check your iron !
I sit down in my tub when I get too tired, it helps me get through it easier. Also make sure you’ve drank enough water. I don’t realise I’m dehydrated until I’m inside and it makes it worse.
@@bbappzz98 ok how much water is enough? Lol I try to drink a bottle before going in, but clearly that’s not enough🥴
I've been using olaplex #3 since it was initially provided to the consumer. it works for me. it has been in rotation since. lawsuits may sometimes be initiated to cause consumer reluctance. its a very effective tool for a competitor of olaplex. I am careful to use all the products as directed. For example I don't cocktail 5 and 8. I use 3 before washing. olaplex is always a go for me
Nice! Thanks for sharing.
I use sulfate shampoo’s , usually one wash and done .
How did you get hydral fatigue? Is it just something that happens when you wash and go too often?
I was washing a lot without using protein or bond builders and my hair started to feel mushy and waaay too soft and brittle.
Take heed if people are saying the products damaged their hair...
I did 🫶🏾
sometimes it how we are using the product and how often that can cause problems
💯
I also clarify and double shampoo my hair every time I wash, but I typically only wash my hair once a week. Also, I definitely wash in sections- at least four, but the more the merrier haha. I can typically keep my wash and styling under an hour if I don’t deep condition or if my hair was in a stretched state before washing (cause that cuts the detangling time down drasticallyyyyy).
I love styling my hair in a wash and go every so often, but I find that it takes more time/effort to detangle and keep moisturized. Out of curiosity, how did you teach yourself to really enjoy doing this process regularly? I feel like after a while I get tired and irritated
Hi Brittany, great video! TFS. I wanted to ask if there was a reason why you stopped using or will be stopping the use of Olaplex N0 and N3? Did you not find the two effective? Or is the N1 and N2 more effective with the N3? Thanks again 😊
Hey 👋🏾 the No0 and No3 are both effective! I’d just rather use the salon version since it’s available to me is all.
@@BrittanyMia great! I also looked into the ingredients in the N1 and it’s pretty much the same as the N0 which is reassuring
I'm huge olaplex fan and don't have anything against it. I recently tried the redken bionic line and it changed my life. I felt like my hair was shiner, curlier, and stronger than when I used olaplex. I had less fly aways with my wash go, and my hair didn't frizz up as fast before. The shampoo to the line is moisturizing and the conditioner felt like I used a hair mask. I mean amazing!!Try it and let me know what you think or a review on it.
I've had my eye on Redken since I hear the Blowout Professor talking about Redken products constantly in his videos. It'll be awhile but it's on my list! Thanks.
My hair is short but my hair texture is very kinky so shampooing in sections even when I try not too it’s just easier to do a section from ear to ear and then spilt the top in the middle and do 2 sides… A good wash day includes Mielle: rosemary mint shampoo and deep treatment…mixing the mask with the oil and bond builder #3 then Jell-O shot gel no leave in. Hair has hold but is super soft under the gel. Day 7 wash n go still with crunch volume and definition
🙌🏾 thanks for sharing this. I saw your video and the curls are curling with Jell-O shot!
😱 wow means a lot Thankyou so much!
Ok, omg 😱 so are we complaining about the effects of a product that we choose to use absolutely completely opposite of what the directions said to do?? 🧐🧐🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️ I’m sad watching this like WHAT!! at every step😬😖🫨
What a weird little comment. I hope your day gets better.
@@BrittanyMia Did I incinerate that I wasn’t? It was crazy watching but yup my day has been great since watching the video 🤭Anyway!Olaplex’s directions are clear! Why create your own routine? Well actually I’m wondering how will it be fixed if you’re not following the directions but carry on and follow her, it wouldn’t bother me
@@KcoYaMaGucci💯💯💯
olaplex works for me, I use it as my hairstylist recommends and I've seen no issues
🙌🏾
I shampoo in two sections. Top and bottom or left and right depending on where my hands end up lol. But I detangle and style in about 5 sections.
thanks for sharinggg
😮 never use olaplex as a prepoo. Use something like an oil or Aussie etc.
Use a scalp brush to massage and get rid of debris on scalp.
Not everything is for everyone.
Precisely.
Maybe i’ll try cocktailing no 8 and no 5 because I don’t like no 5 as a rinse out but no 8 is holy grail status
Same. I almost gave the No. 5 away but after I cocktailed them I was sold. Holy Grail fa sho 🙌🏾
As a stylist myself, isn’t number 1 to be mixed with colour services and #2 is to used after a colour service.
I’m not sure how your gonna incorporate #1 & #2 🤔
The products can be used as a stand alone service. So, using the No. 1 like I would use the No. 0 and the No. 2 like I would use the No. 3. Except with the number one, I would have to add water to the product in a separate container and not use a spray bottle. There are a few videos of stylists doing this on UA-cam. For example, Olaplex UK has a video on it.
Love the video, queen ❤
Thank you 🤎
I divide my hair in 2 sections and cleanse my hair/scalp that way
thanks for sharing!
