Weekly At-Home Treatment for Colour-Treated and Damaged Hair
Olaplex Nr.3 Hair Perfector is a pre-shampoo treatment for hair that has been coloured, lightened, heat-styled or otherwise stressed. Applied to damp hair once or twice a week, it nourishes the fibre and softens the cuticle so the lengths look healthier and feel less brittle through subsequent washes.
Why Choose It?
- Softens and smooths the hair cuticle for a less brittle feel
- Designed for hair that is colour-treated, bleached or heat-styled
- Pre-shampoo step — applied to damp hair, rinsed off after 3–5 minutes
- Lightweight enough for weekly use without buildup
- Suitable for all hair textures, including chemically processed hair
Best For
Anyone with hair that has been coloured, bleached, permed or repeatedly heat-styled. Also useful on naturally dry or curly hair that breaks easily. Use weekly as part of a wider colour-care routine.
Use once or twice a week as a pre-shampoo treatment on damp hair. For deeper repair, layer over a bond-building primer for damaged hair before applying.
- Dampen hair and gently squeeze out excess water with a towel.
- Apply a generous amount through the lengths and ends, focusing on the most damaged areas.
- Comb through with a wide-tooth comb so the product is evenly distributed.
- Leave on for 3–5 minutes — longer for very dry or chemically processed hair.
- Rinse with warm water, then shampoo and condition as usual.
Tips
- For best results, follow with a sulfate-free shampoo and matching bond-maintenance conditioner to maintain bond integrity between treatments.
- Avoid contact with eyes; rinse thoroughly if accidental contact occurs.
