OK so I got Olaplex today, and also ordered L’oreal Pro Fiber serum (since I have yet to find a leave in that doesn’t make my hair dirty).
And I know I was supposed to wait til next week to do it as I am doing weekly treatments basically based on which week it is after bleach - but I couldn’t wait!. I DID it, leaving it overnight!. I woke up to wonderfully soft, voluminous Hair!.. I was very pleased 😀
I know I was suppose to leave it for a “minimum of 20 minutes” but left it all night under the cap, here is my hair with no oils or anything at all after: it feels like “real hair” again!.. Not the usual straw wires.
Also...Boy, have I got for you some juicy tea...a revolutionary conspiracy theory about Olaplex!!!.
What is Olaplex #1 we all know... But what about Olaplex 2? And Olaplex 3? What sourcery is this?. Basically a liquid that we all call “number 2”, could be simply a mix of conditioner PLUS number 1. And as far as number 3 goes - you already know where I’m going with this, don’t you? It’s just the same number 1 with even MORE conditioner!.
So I decided to perform my own experiment with it - thankfully I have PLENTY of number 1 to play with! ;). Somehow applying with water first and following up with cream/conditioner after, perhaps seals the treatment. I don’t know if you are aware of the LOC principle : liquid, oil, cream principle that curly beauties apply in order to hydrate their hair. Somehow following this principle really opens then seals the cuticle. Maybe :) This conspiracy theory is not fully explicit ;)
Anywho...to recap my weekly treatment breakdown here it is again:
-Week One is Keratin treatment because I have discovered that if I do Keratin/ protein treatment BEFORE toning, the hair dyes/pigments go on the most evenly that I had seen in my life. In my case the purple masks or/and shampoos I’ve been doing leave my mane truly platinum without patchiness, no purple or lavender streaks, it comes out perfectly platinum, every.damn.time!. Try Keratin and Protein Rich mask and a regular mask - then see the difference for yourself!!! It’s earth shattering difference!..
-Week Two is for Olaplex treatment
-Week Three is for Oil Treatment
-Week Four is for Ampoule Treatment
And then Oil Treatment also the night before bleaching during week 5...By the way the order is not important except for Week 1, when I usually tone my hair. If your hair is properly toned for an ample amount of time - you would not need to repeat again for the remainder of the month.
But if you don’t have satisfactory results it’s usually because you didn’t hold enough time, or didn’t wear a cap/towel/thermal cap, or didn’t apply Keratin/Protein treatment prior the procedure in order to fill the porous parts of he hair shaft.
In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Olaplex stand-alone treatments once a month for a noticeable difference in hair health, softness and strength.
