Olaplex No. 3 Hair Perfector

Purchased these products from Olaplex due to the rave reviews from customers but my experience was it made my hair very dry like straw, hair did not shine and is not coloured so all natural and hair was frizzy. Expensive purchase and never again.

They don’t send orders even you pay for it. I ordered Nº.4 BOND MAINTENANCE® SHAMPOO × 1 (100ml)o. On 15/03/2025. They sent me someone else orders and even I wrote 10 emails to looking for support. They still can’t fix this problem. Show details

My dyed blonde hair was snapping. I couldn’t touch a strand of my hair without it breaking off. I left olaplex 3 in my hair for 1-2 hours after shampooing. I’ve done this approx 4 times now. I condition after rinsing it out. This has been amazing for strengthening my hair. It isn’t breaking anymore.

Great but sometimes hard to wash out completely – I've been using this stuff for a while to help make my colour-damaged hair a bit more manageable. It works well and makes my hair feel really nice after I use it. My only gripe is that I sometimes find it hard to wash out completely. You're meant to apply it before you wash your hair, but sometimes I find that even when I've used a decent amount… Read more

of shampoo and washed quite well (to my standard at least) it still hasn't completely washed out because my hair will still look and feel a little bit greasy when it's dried. Could just be user error - when this doesn't happen I love how my hair feels after.

Made my hair fall out – I got Olaplex after hearing such good things about it so thought I’d give it a go. I used it for a few months and every time I’d comb through my hair after washing it with Olaplex, handfuls would fall out! I noticed my hair gradually thinning out and within a few months I’d lost around 1/3 of the thickness in my hair. I thought it was maybe due to… Read more

stress as Olaplex seems to be so popular but after switching shampoo and conditioner brands, I don’t loose handfuls of hair after washing it anymore, and it started thinning out the exact time I started using olaplex so I have every reason to believe it’s not “stress” or “diet” etc as nothing had changed aside from the products I use on my hair (olaplex)! I would NOT recommend this to anyone, please save your hair!

Nice treatment – I’ve been using it once a week for a few weeks now and while I don’t know why the hipe it seems like to condition the hair a lot. Sometimes you don’t have time to leave it on for a few hours (which everyone suggests) but I do at leave 1 hour before I use olaplex shampoo and conditioner with. Quite a pricey product but if you buy it with a… Read more

shampoo and conditioner bundle (bought off adorebeauty) it end up much cheaper than buying just a single bottle. Will see how long the 250ml bottle lasts and whether I would want to purchase again after.

Love it! – Just love it! It works the same with or without the n 0. I leave it for a few couple of hours though, not ten minutes like olaplex suggests. I use it once a week, I've noticed you hair doesn't get better by using it more often than that.

Lives up to the hype! – Olaplex 3 has fast become a staple in my hair routine. I use it weekly on my fine, lightened hair and the results speak for themselves. Since incorporating Olaplex 3 into my routine my hair has redeemed its shine. I have smooth, manageable hair and frizz is reduced drastically. I can run my fingers through soft, healthy hair and not have to worry… Read more

about breakage or tangles due to dry ends as I no longer have them! I see my hair dresser every 8 weeks and even she comments on how well my hair handles the lifting, and how little needs to be trimmed due to it being in great condition. That’s despite a looong journey to remove stubborn black box dye from the ends to a light blonde.

I use no 3,4,5 & 6. If I had to choose only one, it would be no 3 hands down. Definitely worth trying if you are in the market for a treatment!

Didnt believe in wonder product's until this – Ive only used no. 4 and 5 twice and already noticed a big difference! The first time i used it my hair was so soft and the second time not only was it super soft but way less hair came/fell out when i combed it after washing my hair! I was amazed by how much less hair combed out. My hair feels amazing and looks so shiny. Im brunette and going baxk… Read more

for the bonding oil. If ur not sure it's definitely worth it. You only need a small amount for a lot of lather.

this ruined my hair more than once – completely ruined my hair a few years ago, but I actually thought the problmen was the otger product that was used with it then - until I used this product a few weeks ago, and still didn't connect that this one was the problem one - and because of this mistake quite a few other people have had me gettinng onto them for thewrong thing - now Ihave… Read more

a big fat dreadlock about 6 inches by 4 inches in the back of my head, where it has taken me the inbetween years to try and get rid of the first one that happened, which wasn't as big, but still a problem. So since the initialtime about 5 years ago - i have spent thousands trying every other keratin and other types of treatments and mostly at salons, as I am getting older and hard to reach so now salon is easier - but not if they use several treatments at once !!! and fry your hair - and blame you overand over for it... I am very disappointed in all the new products that are very expensive and not doing what you expect and pay for - I still can't get this thing cut out, because all the local hairdressers won't go near me!!! and reall;, they are the ones who did it -!!! I had been doing my own hair for years with just occasional tidyup at salong, as it very long - but now I am going to have to shave my hair off!.. at 69 - not what I am lookikng forward to- very upset .

My hair is amazing – Honestly I don’t know why I was sleeping on this for so long I will caveat by saying that foil my hair every 6-8 weeks. I use 3 weekly in combo with the 4,5,6 then blow dry that last me 4 days of wear. Beautiful straight, strong non frizzy hair. And on day 4 I do 4,5,6 (shampoo conditioner and bond smoother). I used to have to wash and condition… Read more

every day. The bottles seem small but they go such a long way you really don’t need much and I have long hair. I get compliments all the time. My hair has never been like this and I’m grateful to find this product.

Excellent for heat damaged hair – I have naturally curly/wavy hair that i could never wear natural as it was constantly frizzy and dry from heat damage (10+ years of daily straightening will do that). I also like to wait at least a year between getting hair cuts, as my hair has always grown slow regardless of whether I get regular trims. I started using this product about 12… Read more

months ago, and it's genuinely the best one I've tried. My hair is much healthier, so I'm now able to actually wear it natural without looking like an alpaca. I was pretty skeptical about buying it initially as the price seemed pretty steep for a 100ml bottle, but it seems to last me a decent amount of time. It definitely works better the longer you leave it in (I use it once a week for 1-3 hours) but I find that you can see an improvement even with the recommended 15 mins. I recently started using their shampoo and conditioner as well, but I find the no.3 works just as well regardless of what brand you use.

Able to achieve my wish for very long, strong hair – If you're trying to grow your hair long BUY THIS!! I always wished I could grow my hair extremely long (waist length) but no matter what I tried or what I did eventually it splits, frizzes, breaks, looks dull blah blah. A hairdresser recommended this product and told me to use it like a weekly mask "the longer you can leave it in the better."… Read more

For the first year and a bit I was using this weekly but it slowly dropped down to either once a fortnight or once a month (cooler months I use it like a deep mask once a month.)

I saw results in the health and strength of my hair after about month four. I noticed the reduction in split ends after a year and a half. Looked overall glossy at the two year mark. I noticed it looked thicker and was less frizzy after two years.

I've now managed to successfully grow my hair long, mid waist. I trim the ends in autumn then again in spring, that's it. It's silky, it's thicker, it looks healthy, humidity can make the hair closer to my face a little frizzy but that's rare. I have little split ends (you really need to search for them.) Basically without buying expensive shampoos and conditioners and other treatments all I've changed is I used this product, liberally, like a deep mask and sleep overnight with it in my hair. The only down side is it does STING if it gets in your eyes so if you are going to sleep in it wrap up your hair or it'll get on your pillow and into your eyes.

Would never have thought I could grow healthy hair this long but I have because of this product. Love it to bits!

Cannot live without this product now – I absolutely love all Olaplex products. My friend used to work at a hair salon and got me some of the products to try and oh my god they are so good. I try to use the No.3 at least twice a fortnight, as it makes such a difference to the way my hair feels after I’ve washed it. It is especially important to use this in order to keep coloured hair… Read more

healthy and strong. (I’m a not-so-natural blonde so my hair goes through quite a bit of damage with the regular blonde foils!) but honestly my hair looks and feels SO healthy. You only need a small amount each time you apply too, so a bottle will last you quite a while. I only just purchased my second bottle about 5 months after my first.

Miracle Hair Treatment for box coloured hair! – This product is a miracle treatment/repairer/saviour for my coloured hair. I purchased it from www.myhaircare.com.au and first used it the week before I box coloured my hair recently. I was amazed with the resulting soft and calm state of my hair after colouring (which usually leaves it dry and tangled). I've continued to use it weekly as a… Read more

treatment and my hair remains in a healthy, soft, manageable state. Plus my colour seems to be holding well. I have fine, dense, curly hair that's coloured just a few shades lighter than natural. Super impressed!
