Standalone Olaplex

[CWHC]

Just a quick question
Do I shampoo before a stand alone olaplex treatment and apply to towel dried hair?

 

[surf girl]

Yes unless the hair is already really clean

Yes, shampoo and towel dry, it will be easier to apply the #1 Olaplex to the hair, I like to put a neutralizer bib on and funnel the Olaplex into a bowl, re-fill the bottle I used to apply the Olaplex and I keep doing that until the 5 minutes are up, then I apply the #2 right over the #1 for 10 to 20 minutes, then rinse, shampoo and condition, if you find the hair you are dealing with might need an deep outside conditioning, then you can apply that after you rinse the shampoo out.
