@juliebruce1114 4 года назад

Doing a scheduled Olaplex treatment while watching this video 😂 Unless it has changed the Olaplex website does not say you have to use a plastic cap and you can leave it on as long as you want so it will dry out. I usually put it in, put my hair up in a tight bun (low density hair means very small bun) and then workout. I also use the 4,5, & 6 with it. THANK YOU for coupon code!

@GenaMarie 4 года назад

Thanks for the info! And you're welcome :)

@HisLove4You 4 года назад

Interesting. FYI: I have low porosity hair, and unless we use heat nothing will absorb in our tight cuticles. So I use a heat cap with olaplex and all my treatments.

@Witchclits 2 года назад

So this really awesome because I had no idea That I was training my curls already? I’ve always done this just to make my hair more manageable because I have very curly thick Latina hair and I’ve just done this for years,I twist my hair up and everyone always thought I had some sort of curly dreads going on but if I ever do a bleaching or color processing to it I just twist my hair up, this is so rad to know! I’m definitely ordering the olaplex 3 right now I’ve done some research and I also lighten my hair again out of boredom and needing change 🤦🏻‍♀️ I have to tone and tone and probably root shadow again( I’m looking like a light 🍊) but definitely seems that I need some Olaplex in my life

@shereelaskero5082 Год назад

I did my first olympics three treatment, and my hair is in much better condition even after the one application. My results were way different as my curl pattern was straitened. I have also noticed a relaxed curl pattern after I color or deep condition my hair. Has anyone else experienced this? Am I doing something incorrectly?

@annaburns5382 4 года назад

I did see a difference in your hair. They both looked really good, also your makeup looked really pretty. I think I would go crazy with the curl training on my hair. I would rather have waves than go through all that for more curls. Also, I have tried Olaplex 3 twice now on clean, damp hair and really saw no improvement. I know that my hair has damage, not severe, but some. Maybe I need to leave it on longer. I followed the directions and left it on about 10 minutes. I almost feel that I get better results when I give myself a protein treatment. Thanks for the demo.

@GenaMarie 4 года назад

Thank you! It is time consuming lol! I noticed with the Olaplex you have to use it consistently over time. You may need more than 3 treatments. I usually use it once a week, for about 4-6 weeks in a row. I then repeat about once a year for maintenance.

I like the un-trained side of yours better but my concern is that I do not want tight curls anyways and I don't really want volume. I like the way my curls look wet better than dry, because they're so long.

I just ordered olaplex no. 3, it'll take a while to arrive tho. I don't have chemical damage but I've never really treated my curls so I'm gonna try this and hope this helps and heals my curls, I also hope this tightens my curls a bit since they're very uneven and that way they look really messy...😣

@suzie6778 4 года назад

Just to preface the experience I’ll be sharing, I have low porosity hair with 2C/3A curls and I’ve been on my curly hair journey for about 2 years. After watching your previous videos about Olaplex, I felt very motivated + inspired to try it out for myself. I was SO disappointed with my results after just one use. It left my hair SO brittle, rubbery, and weak. My hair has been falling out so much and my curls don’t curl the same anymore. To all my curly-haired family out there, I would recommend doing more personal research about how this product might possibly react with your own hair type. I’m happy that this is a product that worked really well for Gena, but it might not work the same for everyone else. Personally, I 100% regret using Olaplex.

@breewecker4638 Год назад

Olaplex has a lot of protein in it, so your hair might have had to much protein in it after using olaplex, because what you described is curls that have a protein overload

Yes. After letting the Olaplex sit for 30 min with the twists, I unraveled them and then washed my hair. I then styled it with cream and gel, and diffused it. The rest of the routine will be in next week's video.

So should I put olaplex no 3 before or after using hair dye or straightening? I can’t really get that specific answer anywhere. Cause you dye your hair on dirty hair & use olaplex on clean hair.

@localau 3 года назад

are you using stylers to seal in the moisture? Check out Manes by Mell and her method - prep, style, seal. You want to make sure the hydration is locked in after conditioning so your hair doesn't dry out. Olaplex is awesome for restoring your pattern/health also, but won't address the dryness.
