Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This stuff is AMAZING!! I'm a natural haired (no relaxer) black girl, with very curly (3a type) hair. I have very dark brown hair, so I color my hair regularly (full head of highlights). The Olaplex system is a game changer. This is not like all the other products I've purchased that sit on top of the hair, or makes your hair feel great until you wash it out... It actually repairs your hair, strand by strand! And the difference is REMARKABLE. I've used everything imaginable to improve the elasticity and strength of my hair. I co-wash, I use a variety of oils to seal my hair, do protective styling, steam conditioning, etc. etc... but my hair always broke off a bit when I colored it. (Not to mention that curly hair is just prone to breakage anyway!) I have used the complete Olaplex system (numbers 1 and 2 in the salon) and bought #3 to use at home... And I couldn't be more thrilled!! So-- If you are going to get your hair colored at a salon, ask for Olaplex. Yeah, it costs extra. And yeah, it's worth it. Buy and use the take home product (#3) every few weeks, if you had preexisting, damaged hair. (Be sure to use #3 as directed-- it is NOT a conditioner. If you use it like a conditioner, your hair will be stronger and shiny, but DRY!) So remember to condition well after! If you have virgin hair that is damaged you can use the system to repair your hair without adding any color (many salons will provide that service if you ask.) It seriously best the hair product of the year!! My curl pattern is more defined, I have less frizz (even without product) and my hair feels like it's brand new. Strong! Shiny! Soft! Happy! What else can I say? I LOVE this stuff! (Drops mic, and walks away) :)
