Olaplex No. 2 3.3-ounce Bond Protector

Yes, my hair is bleached and curly. It’s meant for hair like ours. Makes it incredibly soft and silky

It’s a bond protector. Great for bleached blonde hair. You can mix it in with powder bleach and volume during highlights to protect hair or use as a treatment. Leave in on wet, clean hair. Then rinse. No more fuzzy, frizzy, fried hair!!!

Was your hair free of all other products? How long did you leave it in?

YES! Because using the 1 (which your colorist can add to your color) + after putting on the NO 2 for at least 7 - 10 minutes (more if they have the time) + using the other products of Olaplex - it's truly amazing the difference in your hair. The first few times I did notice that my hair "felt" stronger (just felt healthier) but now thatit's been over a year- truly amazing! I was always wishing for beautiful hair + now other customers at the salon I go to point to me + ask the stylist to do their hair like mine.

I even feel a result after the first time using. It is absolutely amazing. But you notice huge results after a week of using.

I haven't used as a styling creme - but I suppose you could. It has done wonders for my hair - using the 1 + 2 (at the salon when coloring) using apprx every 5 weeks + in between I use the 0 + 3 + 4, 5, 6 + 7. It has taken awhile before seeing results - but when it happens - it's amazing! Sometimes I can hardly believe that people aretalking to me when they comment on "what beautiful hair I have" - I never thoughtI'd hear that especially the number of times it's happened! It's good for color treated hair + just heat damaged hair - a miracle for me!

Yes! It seriously helps damaged hair so much & helped make my hair strong again after being damaged.

Hi Chrystal - Yes, my hair is ultra-light blonde, almost platinum and fine. My hair is lightened from dark blonde, so is damaged and noticeably porous. (As you are likely already aware, "porous hair" means the hair cuticle is frayed and lifted so moisture penetrates the cuticle too easily. It typically takes porous hair much longer to dry). My hair also has a lot of split ends right now. If I were to be honest, I'd tell you I almost always have split ends, even with regular trims.... My mother always used to say that the ends of my hair looked like they had been chewed on by a pack of weasels. I read the great reviews of Opalex and wanted to try the treatment, which is promoted as structurally repairing damaged hair, especially blondes. I didn't know what results to expect because what should your hair feel like once it is repaired??? Is repaired hair the same as moisturized hair??? At any rate, I have only used the product once so fair. I was initially not impressed because the product costs a lot of money for what you get - a tiny chubby 100 ml bottle which looks more like a travel size shampoo.... The directions tell you to use a generous amount so I wound up using about 1/10th of the bottle! I didn't cheap out on how much I applied to my towel-dried hair. I left it on for 15 minutes before shampooing & conditioning as normal. You can keep it on longer but I was really keen to see how the treatment would work (or not). Fortunately, the results were noticeable. My hair was mostly dry just after quickly towel drying and didn't take as long to blow-dry. I didn't apply any leave-in moisturizers or spray-ons for flay-aways because I wanted to see how my hair blow-dried without any product. And the verdict is that my hair looks incredibly improved. Even my split ends seem significantly less frayed, which is truly a miracle. The ends sit almost blunt - I have no idea how any product could do that!! My hair has a nice sheen to it and feels soft without being flat. I do have some fly-aways around the crown of my head but using titch of leave-in spray-on conditioner would fix that. I will definitely be using this product at least once per week going forward. And I recommend the product, even though the price is really quite something given the amount you receive. Lastly, I will be ordering the shampoo & conditioner as well so I will review those once I have used them for a bit :-) I hope this helps Chrystal. Bottom-line is that this product is, in my view, worth the investment. I hope you also have the noticeable improvements that I have experienced. Cheers.
