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.

My new can’t live without product!
This product has made such a difference to my hair. I used to describe my hair as Caucasian Afro as it was so dry, frizzy, difficult to care for, and the slightest hint of humidity would leave me with a halo of uncontrolled frizz. After using this my hair feels soft, smooth, easier to dry and resists humidity far better than anything else I’ve ever tried. I now use the entire range and highly recommend Olaplex, it has transformed my hair!

Amazing!
I have used this for a few years now and love the silky feel it gives to my hair. Additionally my hair was badly damaged from bleach and it definitely helped improve the condition. I use it twice a week and sleep in it! I have just purchased the the no1 orlaplex and they work beautifully together. I am already convinced my hair appears thicker and healthier. Worth the money!

Treat your hair to luxury
I have always used no.3 in my bleaching process and as a luxury hair treatment, I discovered Olaplex no.0 and the added benefit of using no.3 after and I have never been more excited to dry my hair following a wash with Olaplex 4 & 5 ....... There is benefit in paying for luxury hair products, they repair and treat over bleached, treated hair and bring you back to a perfect base

Use with 0
After using olaplex 0, I apply this on and leave it for about an hour. I wrap my head in cling film (sounds mad) but it keeps my hair wet. Rinse off, remember to deep condition after though. I have found this process of 0 and 3 has made a huge difference to the condition of my hair. Its growing and looking good.

Worth it!
Having had no hairdresser attention for eight months due to Covid shielding for a loved one, I bought Olaplex 3 recently, together with 0, 4, 5 and 6. Yes- a massive splurge but SO worth it. My rats’ tails have turned into proper hair without being over conditioned. Highly recommended.

Olaplex 3
Lovely stuff. Originally tried this in a trail size and loved how it made my hair feel, so bought a full sized version to try and get my hair in tip top shape ready for my post lockdown hair appointment in a few weeks
