FAQ’s …
What is the OLAPLEX stand-alone treatment?
The OLAPLEX Stand Alone Treatment comprises two OLAPLEX products; OLAPLEX No.1 Bond Multiplier and OLAPLEX No.2 Bond Perfector. We know that all these numbers can get slightly confusing, so we’ve separated them out for you so you can take a deep dive into how both products work👇
Olaplex No.1 Bond Multiplier 525ml
No.1 is a highly powerful bond multiplier that is designed as ‘the first step’ to repairing damaged and brittle hair. The formula successfully rebuilds broken bonds and prevents further damage. It works best when added into potentially damaging treatments such as bleaching or colouring jobs to preserve the condition, but is also brilliant for stand-alone treatments on clients as it will leave clients with a shiner, healthier and stronger head of hair.
Olaplex No.2 Bond Perfector 525ml
No. 2 effectively rebuilds and continues to restore any remaining broken bonds that may have been missed by OLAPLEX No.1, ensuring full nourishment to every strand of your client’s hair. Hair is left feeling stronger, shinier, and healthier.

Who is the OLAPLEX Stand Alone treatment for?

Chemically treated hair could benefit from in-salon stand-alone treatment twice a month for optimum maintenance.
3. Highly compromised hair
You should recommend a once-weekly treatment to clients with highly compromised hair.
