The new season for women sometimes becomes the start for change, especially with regard to the image. Men sometimes do not notice the changes and, moreover, do not realize the reason that prompted his half to radically change their appearance. But they do not suspect how hair color affects the personality. For example, if a woman has become a blonde, then a bit of tenderness begins to appear in her character, she becomes nicer and younger. Such an image simply requires its owner to become a coquette and a naive girl. But any hairdresser will say how difficult and sometimes painful it is to take care and restore hair after the lightening procedure. But fortunately, a unique tool has appeared in the world that will not only restore, but also protect curls from harmful salon procedures and natural factors.
Many people are talking about him now, but before buying, not many ask themselves if they need Olaplex for hair, what is it and who is it for? This article will help you find answers to these and other questions.
How it all began
Once, two American doctors of chemical and biological sciences Craig Hawker and Eric Presley agreed that the beauty salon industry does not have a single means that can completely restore hair damaged by dyeing, curling and styling. This problem became the goal for creating a new drug. Together, they released the first product, which included a simple molecule with the complex name bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate. But the drug turned out to be expensive and could afford only a prosperous part of the population. After some time, hard work on the formula made it possible to create a new tool available to ordinary people, Olaplex.
Olaplex for hair - what is it?
The latest tool for repairing damaged strands appeared on the cosmetic market not so long ago, but has already turned into a real discovery in the field of beauty and instantly scattered around the world. Such a rapid rise in the popularity of the brand is based on serious research.
Hair preparation "Olaplex" does not consist of oils, acids, silicones and other harmful components, the presence of which is not useful for the condition of the hair. Therefore, it can be used both independently and in conjunction with any dye.
The main goal of the drug is to preserve and maintain a bright and saturated shade of hair, as well as protection from negative chemical and mechanical effects.
In Russia, the widespread successful use of Olaplex for hair has not yet been observed. What is it, basically only highly qualified specialists in the beauty industry know. They often offer their customers to use it during recovery procedures and add to moisturizing masks.
Who will suit
The line of drugs is primarily suitable for blondes and those who decided to radically change their shade of hair. After all, the usual wash without the use of Olaplex hair products (reviews confirm this) severely damage their structure. After it, you have to not only treat them for a long time, but also cut them. And Olaplex products serve as protection and can mitigate the harmful effects of the coloring mixture on the hair structure.
Important Tips
How to use Olaplex for hair? Instructions for use are quite simple, most importantly, consider some points.
Remember that the product slightly reduces the effect of the basic oxidant. Therefore, if you are tuned to a result of 3% oxide, replace it with 6%, and instead of 9% use 12%.
Carrying out the highlighting procedure, you need to take concentrate protection. Dilute the oxide with the blocking powder. For every 30 g of clarification mixture, add 3.75 ml of Olaplex. Mix well and pour a small amount of clarifying powder. This is necessary so that the mixture acquires a consistency convenient for coloring.

Where can one buy
Despite its wide popularity and relevance in the cosmetic market of the West and many European countries, Olaplex hair restoration product (reviews prove this) is practically inaccessible to our fellow countrymen. In Russia, the Authentica trading company became the official representative of the foreign brand. In two capitals of our country - in Moscow and St. Petersburg, there are already salons that practice the use of Olaplex products.
Any product from this line, if desired, can also be purchased in the online store.
Cost
The set, which has won the success of most foreign stylists and hairdressers, often consists of a bottle of Olaplex Bond Multiplier No. 1 (525 ml) and two Olaplex Bond Perfector No. 2 with the same volume. Online stores that sell the drug offer customers various options for combinations of funds. Such a move optimizes the choice and cost of the Olaplex product for hair. Caring for the condition of curls has never been so simple and effective!
Also on sale are kits for frequent hair dyeing, produced, for example, once every 10 days.
A standard set of three bottles can be purchased for about 3,500 rubles.
System "Olaplex" for hair. Home use
Olaplex differs from traditional balms and conditioners in that it begins treatment and restoration from the inside of the hair, while the former form a temporary protective sheath.
After reading the advantages of the product, many probably wondered: is it possible to use Olaplex for hair on its own? The technology of performing dyeing is affordable even for those who are far from hairdressing.
First you need to take a bottle with a light yellow product called "Bond Multiplier" (Bond Multiplier). The drug is responsible for restoring the structure of the hair. It is necessary to mix 15 ml of Bond with 90 ml of water and apply to dry hair. It is important to note that the hair is fully saturated with the product, you need to comb them several times. Thus, the mixture will be distributed over the entire surface and each strand will be under reliable protection. The product should be kept on your hair for about 5 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
Bond Perfector can be mixed with hair dye. You can not be afraid, it will not affect the final result of staining. This mixture minimizes dye damage, and the result is surprising. You can carry out the dyeing procedure several times in a row, without fear that the hair will turn into straw. After all, each of us knows: the weaker the hair, the more vulnerable it is, but not in the case of Olaplex. Hair dye can not do harm, because each strand is under the protection of the product.
Getting to the second stage. We take the second package, which says Bond Perfector ("Bond Perfector"). This creamy mix in texture resembles conditioner, and is responsible for restoring the structure of the strands missed in the first stage. Also, "Perfector" gives the hair strength and shine. It is applied in the same way as the first drug, and lasts 10 minutes on the hair.
The final part of the treatment will be the use of a bottle labeled Perfector. The creamy white texture contains the main component of the bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate molecule. Perfector is perfect for weekly use. Just add a small amount to the shampoo. Thus, you will maintain the amazing effect of silkiness and shine of the hair until the next dyeing.
Confession
Active advertising means that Olaplex is the owner of several patents of international quality. But according to unofficial data, it was revealed that applications for their receipt were submitted recently. But despite this, the products received recognition not only in Chicago (the city of creation), but also in other countries. This contributed to the right marketing move.
There is also information that the brand has other names: Salon Intro, Repoir and Hair Perfector No. 3.
Opinions of professionals
A year after the release of the first series of Olaplex products, more than 100,000 beauty salons in the United States began using it. According to hairdressers, the new tool has become a guarantee that after numerous procedures, the hair will retain its healthy appearance.
Only the Olaplex preparation will help to completely renew the broken chemical bond of sulfur with other components of the hair structure and restore their shine. Reviews of hairdressers about his action are always enthusiastic. Solving the problem associated with hair restoration, brought them great success. Now they can boldly dye and bleach curls, not being afraid for their health and appearance.
Also, stylists note that after using the Olaplex preparation, the use of styling styling products with high temperature does not affect the state of the hair.
What else is Olaplex capable of for hair? Reviews of hairdressers here also agreed that the product worked well during perms. It is also popular during modern dyeing techniques such as bronzing and amber, where the hair has to withstand repeated exposure to coloring pigment.
Customer reviews
What is the result that awaits us after using the Olaplex line of hair products? Customer reviews of beauty salons claim that under its influence, the strands become alive, silky, a natural shine appears. After the first procedure, they are much easier to lay and comb. Any process associated with chemical exposure and leading to the destruction or damage of the hair structure using Olaplex becomes safe.
Also, women noticed that the curls are not electrified, and this is very important for the winter period. Even the most spoiled and damaged hair styling and styling products drug "Olaplex" can cure and transform their appearance.
Owners of bleached and bleached hair noticed a particularly stunning effect.
You can list positive reviews for a long time, but what's the point, if it is already clear that, despite the high cost, a high-quality and effective tool?
When you do not need to use the drug "Olaplex"
1. If you are naturally the owner of thin and dry hair, never use a hairdryer and other styling products, then Olaplex does not need you. In this case, the structure of your curls is not damaged.
2. If you use ammonia-free paints during dyeing , the disulfide bond of the hair is not damaged. And this means that the use of the drug does not make sense.
3. If you came to the procedure of coloring in a beauty salon and the master insists to use the Olaplex tool to protect the skin from irritations and burns, do not rush to agree. There are many other tools that will perfectly cope with this task and will not hit your pocket.
4. If you use a stable dye only for coloring hair roots, without affecting the length, then here the use of a line of drugs from Olaplex is optional.
When it makes sense to use the Olaplex system
1. Your hairdresser is not professional enough, and instead of tinting clarified strands, he decides to use the same product for the entire length that he applied to the roots in order to eliminate yellowness.
2. You cannot live a month without experimenting with hair color. From a brunette you turn a blonde into a blonde, then into a fiery red, then a brown-haired woman, and finally again into a blonde, and this is only in a couple of months.
3. You are the owner of dark hair, but want to become, for example, a platinum blonde, it follows that you have to use "Blondex" or similar brightening agents.
4. First, your hair went through keratin straightening, then permed, and now they have to lighten.
All these factors suggest that you spare your curls and use the Olaplex line of hair care and restoration products.
Finally
Summing up all of the above, we can conclude that the drug "Olaplex" is a fundamentally new approach to the procedure of dyeing and restoration of the hair structure.
The results from using the product are not comparable with other products of cosmetic brands. I would like to hope that in Russia the novelty will become as demanded as in the West, and thanks to it the girls will be able to look like real Hollywood beauties.
