OLAPLEX No. 5 Conditioner, 8.5-oz

Olapex is an amazing product. I recommend you use all three Olaplex 3, 4 and 5. My hair is transforming from the first time I used these products. Protects and strengthens the hair. My hair is no longer breaking and every time I use it my hair is just getting better. My hair has shine and strength. Love this product. Highly recommend.

I've used it three times so far. Love it. I have a lot of thin hair. I was worried it would too too heavy. The conditioner has made my hair look shiny, full and healthier. It feels like I have a protective armor on my hair. I may have to try the shampoo !

Wow! I have very thick long hair. This is without a doubt the best conditioner ive found in years!

Olaplex No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner is a product that was suggested to me by my stylist after my hair started to get super dry following processing to lighten it. She used the salon products (1/2) and I left the salon feeling silky, but due to hard water, my hair quickly went back to a straw-like consistency. Olaplex No.5 along with No.6 leave-in saved my hair!

My hair is naturally dark brown, but in January I decided to let my silver come in and to stop coloring my hair. I let my hair grow our about 1" and then my stylist suggested we lighten the remaining hair (I was hoping to avoid looking like a Calico cat), followed by a darker toner to soften the line of demarcation. Out of the salon, my hair looked fabulous, but a day or two later, back to straw.

I purchased this No.5 conditioner from my stylist and after using it for the first time (leaving it on for 5 minutes in the shower after shampooing with a moisturizing shampoo of another brand) both my scalp and hair felt refreshed. I put on some No.6 leave-in on my towel-dried hair and styled as usual. The results were immediate.

I now use No.5 about every other shampoo (using a deep conditioner when not using this product), using it every time after using any purple shampoos which are particularly drying to my hair and tend to irritate my scalp.

My hair using Olaplex No.5 is softer, smoother and appears more shiny and conditioned. It remains frizz-free, which is not easy to accomplish as I also have naturally curly hair which I tend to flat iron most days, and soft to the touch for a day or two after using this product.

My hair is above my shoulders and I can get away with using about a dime-sized amount of this conditioner to do my whole head and scalp. The product is very concentrated and works through damp or wet hair easily. The scent is mild and very pleasant. I've had no irritation to my scalp using this product.

It should be noted that this is no ordinary conditioner. It repairs the hair bonds on the cuticle to produce a smoother cuticle (outside of individual hair shafts). This makes your fuzzy, dry hair appear smoother, shinier, and healthier and makes it much easier to attain a beautiful style.

Expensive? Yes.

Worth it? Yes!

Do without it? No.

If you have normal, healthy hair you probably don't need to use this product. But if you have processed hair that is fuzzy and dry or breakage that seems never-ending, give this one a try. It's gentle and effective, with a little going a long way.
