Basically, over styling and hair stressors can break the strong disulphide bonds in the hair. These bonds are necessary for a healthy-looking ‘do. This breakdown then creates a single sulphur hydrogen bond which can pair with three oxygen molecules. If this happens it produces cysteic acid which can eat away at the protein in your hair. This is bad news for our beautiful tresses!

But despite the acclaim, there still seems to be a little confusion around what the products actually do. We'll clear things up: Unlike other hair treatments that add moisture and shine to the outer layers of damaged hair (pretty straightforward stuff), Olaplex works on the molecular level to repair the disulfide bonds that give hair its strength and break through heat-styling, color, and chemical treatments—and was the first brand to make this bond-building technology available in an at-home treatment. (The secret? A little active ingredient called bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate.) Whatever you do, do not use their products. I used olaplex years ago and didn’t seem to have any problems that I noticed, however after buying and using it recently I noticed my scalp became extremely red, itchy and irritated. My hair felt so dry and brittle and started thinning and breaking a lot!! If you’re wondering how to use Olaplex No. 5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner, begin by shampooing your hair and drying it with a towel. Take some of the product into your hands and spread it evenly throughout your hair. Focus on the ends of your hair particularly. Wait a couple of minutes, and then carefully wash all of the conditioner off.
