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.

Love the no.3 only fault would be mine has a weird smell when you first put the product to hand, other than that it does the job well!

Big difference in my hair
I try and use this once a week after no.0 before rinsing out and then shampooing and conditioning as normal. I always notice a big difference in my hair after this routine. My hair is fine and prone to damage but feels a lot healthier and even a bit thicker after doing this routine since I discovered these products a year or so ago. The brand in general might seem pricey but I only use a small amount with each use and using this once a week means it lasts pretty well.

Excellent
My hairdresser uses this treatment on my highlighted hair, easy to use as a pre shampoo treatment, leaves my hair really soft. Will certainly buy again and absolutely recommend 5*

It's good
I uses this a lot for about a year, with great results. I've moved onto k18 as I find it easier to use/incorporate into my routine.

Olaplex no3
I am a big fan of the olaplex range, this is a great product that alongside other items in the same product range have greatly improved my bleached blonde hair. They are expensive and the bottles aren’t big, but a little goes a long way. I use this weekly. I prefer to purchase from look fantastic as I am assured then that it’s a legitimate product as there are fakes about. LF are official stockists. Overall a great product that does the job!

Can’t rate highly enough
The best product. Literally saves my highlighted hair. I only use every so often and that seems to be enough. Had unruly fried hair and this helped make it smoother and easier handled. Worth the money, a little goes a long way. I find it works better if you leave it in a little longer

This is amazing for natural hair (not extensions) to leave in as a mask all day. Leaves your hair feeling so much healthier & soft

I love this although doesn’t give as dramatic of a change in hair as other reviews claim. Prefer some of the other olaplex products like the purple shampoo

I used to have bleached, damaged, dull hair.. but since I'm trying to grow my hair out after a dreaded (but much needed) chop, this has made all the difference! Brings back shine, makes it so soft and so strong! Not to be vain or anything, but ive fallen in love with my hair since using this - makes a visable difference!
