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.

Good results
I have very thin, fine hair and my ends are very frizzy. This product has been really good at reducing my frizziness. I would recommend to put it atleast twice a week for hours, if not overnight for faster results.

Loving it
Everyone raves about this so decided to buy it when there was a 20% off event. A bit of a faff to have to wet your hair and put this in and leave it for a while before you can actually wash your hair but the results have been great. Only used it about 4 times so far but notice my hair is a lot softer and shinier

One of the only products that works but..
It has definitely helped stop my hair with breakage. I can't say it makes my hair look better though, it makes my hair look straggly and it feels stiff and dry, like when there's too much protein and not enough moisture. My hair is course and thick and down to my waist. A hairdresser left bleach on too long when it was down to my hips so I've lost a lot of length and now trying to salvage my hair. So far the olaplex 6 has helped me the most.

Saved my hair!
I have very dry, curly hair and after a post-lockdown trip to the salon and a lot of bleaching later my hair was extra dry and frazzled. I tried this with a sample of the shampoo and conditioner and it has worked wonders! My hair is so much softer and the ends feel a lot less brittle. I didn’t know how this would work with curly hair but my hair is bouncy and soft. Only negative is the bottle is SO SMALL and very pricey but it will get your hair back on track.

A forever product
I love this product. I have never tried a hair product that makes such a difference. Everytime I don't use it my hair is flat and lifeless. My very fine hair looks and feels stronger. I will never be without this!

Amazing treatment!
For a fine hair like mine and damaged too, this does wonders! Is the first treatment that I used and had great results from it and to actually see a difference since using it. Doesn’t has a greasy residue, it washes so easily and is a must in my haircare routine. Bottle no2 is on its way.
