Olaplex + K18

Olaplex

Hair contains billions of disulfide bonds which will give the hair its structure, strength and stability. When these bonds are broken, it results in hair damage. Olaplex restores damaged hair by repairing from the inside out with its patented ingredient. Once all bonds are intact and in alignment, the hair is healthy, shiny and beautiful.

Most of our clients already use Olaplex treatment as regular part of their coloring or bleaching sessions, for a very good reason: hair suffers of oxidizing, both natural and chemical, resulting in dry, brittle, non-elastic-, another words: damaged hair. Olaplex prevents this from happening and rebuilds the already-broken-bonds.

The effect is permanent, however its work on hair is endless. Disulfide bonds are stretched and broken daily when we go about our regular business. All the mechanical stress will further the damage, like using hot tools, brushing and combing the hair. Thermal, mechanical, chemical and environmental factors all show in your hair. We highly recommend using Olaplex No.3 as once-in-a-week care, for maintenance and prevention at home, in between the salon sessions. Ask your stylist for more information.

K18

The keratin chains´ structure in the hair is mostly built of three kinds of bonds, out of which the disulfide bonds are crucial for the healthy-looking hair. When these bonds are broken (read Olaplex), the whole keratin chain and thus the hair, will result in visible damage. There are billions of keratin chains in a single strand of hair. When these are damaged, hair’s core structure becomes compromised and, as a result, it loses its strength, elasticity, resiliency, and shine.

With patented K18Peptide, this will rebuild the keratin chains on molecule level using biomimetics, becoming permanent part of hair structure. Hair care with K18 product varies depending on the condition and state of the hair. Ask your stylist for more information.
