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.

Good product

Don't use
Please don't use this product - I believe it caused my hair texture to change and before brittle, dry, frizzy and unmanageable and this damage cannot be undone until it is cut out. There are countless others who have lost hair because of all of Olaplex's products. It works for some but why take the chance? The damage is devastating.

Wish it came in bigger bottles

Probably don't risk it
1. I've seen absolutely no positive impact using Olaplex products. 2. while legally I can't say Olaplex products caused my recently discovered bald patch, I will say it wasn't there before I started using their No 3 and their oil. So just a friendly warning to perhaps wait and see how the legal proceedings against them pan out before you consider buying their stuff. 3. The products arent cheap. LF haven't agreed to refund me (although they say my enquiry's with their Quality Team) so perhaps also weigh up the risk of spending a small fortune on these products only to find they don't work or worse!

Lovely
This is great to use after going to the hairdresser, especially if they use olaplex in your colour. Can be a bit long winded though as needs to be used before shampoo

Olaplex no. 3 a miracle worker
I saw a recommendation for Olaplex on a YouTube video and decided to give it a try. This treatment is amazing and has made a difference to my dry damaged hair after just 2 treatments. Follow up with Olaplex no.7 oil and check out the blowout professor on YouTube for tips and advice on the trinity system.

Ok but yet to see the results I’ve heard of
I hear only great things about this but to be honest I’m a bottle down and onto my second one and still not a huge difference to my hair. I’m continuing use and praying I see an improvement soon. For a bit of context, I’ve gone from brunette to blonde so my hairs been through the mill recently. My hairdresser and countless articles say this is the best thing for me… let’s see!
