Olaplex Single Use Professional Kit No.1 4ml & No.2 15ml

Product Information

As someone with fine, low-porosity hair, I always struggle to find a volumising product that works for me. It's not often they deliver the same result as shown on the model, or they’ll leave a residue that feels a little crispy once dried. If you have a lot of product or oil buildup, shampoo first and start with wet, towel dried hair for best results.

There are a few fun ways stylists can use No. 2 as an add-on service above and beyond adding it at the shampoo bowl after using No. 1 mixed in with a color or chemical treatment. Stand-alone treatmentthe Olaplex No.0 Intensive Bond Building Treatment can help you build the silky hair you’re looking for, whether it’s curly or straight. Mix 1/2 oz (15ml) No. 1 Bond Multiplier with 3 oz (90ml) water. This can be adjusted accordingly for different hair lengths. For example, if your hair is very long, 1 oz No. 1 can be mixed with 6 oz water.

Without rinsing, apply a generous amount of No. 2 Bond Perfector from root to ends. Comb through thoroughly.

What does Olaplex do?

Start by using the No.3 mask once a week and the shampoo and conditioner every other hair wash. You can then amplify their efficacy by using the No.7 Bonding Oil as a post-wash styling treatment. OLAPLEX is a bond building product, not a protein or deep conditioning treatment and can be used as necessary. 1 or 2 treatments per week for a few weeks is a good place to start. These treatments make a huge difference, so see how your hair responds and talk to your stylist about what else you might need. There is no such thing as too much Olaplex! Are Olaplex results permanent? You’re probably already an Olaplex addict and add Olaplex No.1—the Bond Multiplier—into every formulation. But did you know that Olaplex No.2—the Bond Perfector—is NOT optional? And did you know you can use it beyond the three-step Olaplex system? We’re breaking down three ways you might not know you can use Olaplex No.2, so keep reading! This also contains bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate, but in a smaller quantity and in combination with a variety of conditioning agents. It is also applied in the salon and used as your post-colouring conditioner treatment.

Now stepping into the at-home arena, No.0 is a primer that should be applied from roots to ends before slathering on the No.3 mask. This isn’t a necessary step in the Olaplex system but is an additional one you can take to maximise its benefits. No.1 is a solution-based treatment that works to repair damaged hair. It’s a concentrated first step that hairdressers use to lessen the unwanted effects of chemical dyeing such as brittleness and breakage. It can also be added to glosses and toners. Olaplex No.2 Bond Perfector Yet despite its worldwide recognition, the same questions still circle the internet: is Olaplex actually good for hair, and how should you use it?

How to complete a Stand Alone OLAPLEX treatment

No.4: Repair bonds while gently cleansing with the Bond Maintenance Shampoo, which imparts moisture, strength and manageability. That said, I noticed an instant improvement in the softness of my formerly straw-like hair after using the No.3 mask; I’d often catch myself twiddling my silky ends during the day, particularly after leaving it to marinate overnight. It's important note that No. 2 (and all other Olaplex products for that matter) are not just conditioning treatments, and they are not protein treatments. They actually repair the hair follicle by bonding with the molecules left exposed by broken hair bonds. This strengthens the hair and actually helps to prevent future damage. Why are Olaplex No. 1 and No. 2 only for salon use? Olaplex works to repair hair internally. No. 1 and No. 2 are used together as a powerhouse treatment to restore and protect your hair. The main purpose of No. 1 Bond Multiplier is to be used in conjunction with chemical services to protect and repair damage during the treatment. Because of this, it has very specific usage instructions.
