The Olaplex No.3 Hair Perfector is a best-selling pre-shampoo treatment powered by scientifically-proven Olaplex Bond Building Technology™. Enriched with a host of revolutionary actives, the high-performance formula helps to hydrate and visibly smooth hair, promoting a stronger-looking and more resilient appearance.
With a pH balance of 3.5-5, the weekly at-home treatment works to restore a satin-like shine and soft texture to dry, damaged hair. Simply comb the radiance-boosting Olaplex treatment through damp hair, allow it to work its magic for 10 minutes, and then follow with your usual wash routine. The hair appears visibly nourished, exudes a glossy sheen, and feels luxuriously smooth.
- Application: Apply generously to damp hair from scalp to ends until hair is thoroughly saturated. Leave on for a minimum of 10 minutes (or longer if desired). Rinse from hair. Cleanse with OLAPLEX Nº.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo and OLAPLEX Nº.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner.
- Routine: Use once a week or 2-3 times a week for very damaged hair.
Pro Tip: Use OLAPLEX No.0 Intensive Bond Building Hair Treatment before No.3 Hair Perfector™ as a two-part system.
- Original Bond Builder System: Patented technology that helps leave hair feeling stronger

How to use Olaplex 3
Designed to be used once weekly, distribute the pre-shampoo treatment onto damp hair before washing and comb through for even root-to-tip saturation. Leave it on for a minimum of ten minutes and a maximum of 90, depending on how damaged your hair is. Rinse, then follow with Olaplex No.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo and No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner. Dry and style as usual with your favourite Olaplex products.
Can you leave Olaplex 3 on overnight?
It is not advised to leave Olaplex No.3 in the hair overnight, as the formula is intended to be rinsed out and followed by a shampoo cleanse. The brand suggests that just ten minutes is long enough to notice visible results.
What does Olaplex 3 do?
Olaplex No.3 is a pre-shampoo perfecting treatment that nourishes all hair types, including coloured and chemically treated. Thanks to innovative Bond Building Technology®, the formula protects against breakage, brittleness and dullness, restoring the hair’s look and feel with a high-shine finish.

Amazing
This product is amazing if used correctly!! I always shampoo hair then towel dry, apply no.3 in sections, brush/comb through and cover with a shower cap for several hours then wash out as normal. Hair always feels in great condition afterwards and I will continue to purchase to maintain my highlights and stop breakage.

Worth the hype
Does everything they say it does. Really made a difference in the condition of my hair. Been using it for years and it has become the most important part of my haircare regime!

Does what it says, but the effect is not unique
In general does what it says, but the results are similar to some other hair care products I have used which claim no bond repair effect, and which you don't have to apply 10 min before washing hair which is not the most convenient thing. I like it and will use the bottle till the end, but I am still not sure if it is completely worth the price.

GAME CHANGER
Been using this years and it has saved my hair. It’s not a deep conditioner, it’s a bond repair treatment and the effects are built up over time. If I was told I could only take three things to a desert island this would be one of them 🤣

Nice
Works well and does leave the hair very soft, however for the size and price I have not repurchased as I have long thick hair so used the bottle very quickly

Worth the money
I've tried a few different Olaplex products now, however this is the only one that I keep repurchasing. When I use this before washing my hair I can feel a real difference, my hair feels soft and manageable and I do think it makes a real difference. Some of the other products aren't worth the money in my opinion however Number 3 is worth every penny. Would highly recommend for fry/damaged hair.

Fantastic
Seriously thought this was just a gimmick. How wrong. I’ve just finished my first small bottle on my bleached hair & it’s made a huge difference. My hair looks healthier, feels great. Had a few comments. Certainly will be purchasing today again. And it lasts for ages.
