How many strands of hair do you lose daily? Are you done seeing hair on your comb?
On average, it’s natural to shed 50 to 100 strands a day. Shedding is necessary for our hair to go through our growth cycle. Everyone sheds more than others but if you are shedding more than usual, It’s high time to pay attention to what you are doing with your hair because hair loss doesn’t have to be permanent. You just have to be willing to put in the time and healthy hair routine.
Olaplex treatment is a perfect way to get rid of hair shedding, damaged, and dried out hair. Thankfully, Olaplex has broken the stereotypes by introducing at-home treatments with amazing products like, Olaplex 0, Olaplex 3, and Olaplex 8. This trio is designed to reconnect broken bonds and repair the damage to hair that has been compromised by chemical processing, heat styling, and mechanical abuse.
Why Olaplex?
If you colour, straighten, blow dry or chemically treat your hair, you need Olaplex treatment. It is considered to be the most effective hair care at home. It treats the hair from inside, unlike regular salon cosmetics that only helps to improve its appearance. The manufacturers of Olaplex have refused to use the harmful chemicals in its composition. The active ingredients of Olaplex improve and maintain hair strength and integrity that further helps in repairing damage from frequent colouring and bleaching.
You need an Olaplex procedure if:
- You just dyed your hair, especially into blonde
- You regularly use a hairdryer, strengthening iron, or styling products
- You hair is frizzy and looks tired
- You have permed your hair
- If you can see regular hair shedding
What really does Olaplex 0, Olaplex 3, and Olaplex 8 are for?
- Olaplex No. 0 is a treatment that primes, rebuilds bonds and strengthens hair. It is used after sectioning hair. A few drops on each section, and spread it with a wide tooth comb, leaving it for 10 minutes.
- Olaplex No. 3 aka the hair perfector restores the broken bonds which can result from harsh chemical treatments like bleaching and coloring. After keeping Olaplex 0 for 10 mins, apply Olaplex 3, on already sectioned hair. Keep it for 20 minutes and follow it up with the normal wash.
- Olaplex No. 8 aka the bond intense moisture mask works like a cherry on the cake. It adds shine and moisturizes the hair from within. The product is applied to clean or freshly-shampooed hair. Keep it on for 10 minutes and rinse them fully.
