Olaplex Hair Treatment

Olaplex hair treatment is a salon service that reconnects the broken bonds inside your hair, so strands damaged by bleach, colour or heat become stronger and snap less. It suits you if your hair feels gummy after lightening, breaks when you brush it, or you're planning a big colour change and want to protect it first. Book an Olaplex hair treatment in London at PIED-DE-POULE salons in South Kensington or Oxford Circus.

What is Olaplex Hair Treatment

Olaplex treatment for hair is a professional salon service that uses patented bond-building technology to repair broken disulfide bonds in your hair structure. Unlike traditional conditioning treatments that coat the hair surface, Olaplex works deep within the cortex to rebuild damaged connections caused by chemical processing, heat styling, and environmental stress.

This treatment is ideal for:

hair damaged by bleaching, coloring, or chemical treatments;
brittle, weak, or breaking hair;
over-processed or heat-damaged strands;
anyone seeking to maintain hair health during hair coloring services;
those preparing for or recovering from major color transformations.

Hair treatment olaplex delivers visible improvement in texture, strength, and manageability from the first session, with cumulative benefits building over time. At PIED-DE-POULE in London, we offer this service to restore your hair’s natural vitality and resilience.

How Does Olaplex Work: Key Components

Olaplex uses the scientifically proven ingredient bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate, which actively seeks out broken disulfide bonds in the hair and reconnects them. This patented molecule is small enough to penetrate deep into the hair shaft, working from the inside out.

The treatment works progressively — each session builds upon the last, creating healthier, more resilient hair over time. Many clients notice immediate improvements in softness and manageability, with strength continuing to develop with regular use.

For a layered treatment that also smooths the hair surface, Tokio Inkarami is another option.

How to Use Olaplex Treatment for Hair: Home & Salon

At PIED-DE-POULE, our specialists deliver olaplex treatment at salon level with professional precision.

Why Salon Treatment Surpasses Home Use

Professional olaplex treatment at salon offers significantly higher concentrations of active ingredients than retail products. Our experts can layer multiple steps, adjust processing times based on your hair’s specific damage level, and combine procedures with other services like haircuts or colouring for comprehensive hair care. The salon experience ensures precise application and maximum penetration — results that home treatments simply cannot replicate.

While at-home Olaplex products (Steps 3-9) are excellent for maintenance, the intensive bond-building power of salon Steps 1 & 2 provides intensive repair that sets the foundation for lasting hair health.

How the Olaplex Hair Treatment Is Performed

Professional Assessment

Your stylist evaluates your hair condition and customizes the treatment protocol. This is also when you decide whether Olaplex is booked on its own or added to a colour service.

Preparation

Hair is shampooed and towel-dried, so the bond-builder can reach every strand evenly. Excess water is removed to keep the formula concentrated.

Deep Application

Concentrated salon-strength formulas (Steps 1 & 2) are applied to rebuild bonds intensively. The stylist works section by section, concentrating on the most damaged lengths and ends.

Optimal Processing Time

The treatment is left on for the precise duration needed for maximum bond repair. Timing is adjusted to how damaged your hair is.

Rinse and Styling

Hair is rinsed, conditioned and blow-dried. You feel the difference in softness straight away.

Expert Finishing and Home Care

Step 3 is applied as a take-home treatment to extend results. The stylist explains how often to use it between salon visits.

LESS BREAKAGE
Reconnected bonds make each strand stronger, which significantly reduces breakage and split ends.
ELASTICITY AND SHINE
A restored internal structure returns stretch and shine to compromised hair.
PROTECTION DURING COLOUR
Used as a treatment booster during chemical services, Olaplex protects hair while it's being lightened or coloured.
SUITS ALL HAIR TYPES

SAFE FOR COLOURED HAIR
The pH-balanced formula is safe for colour-treated hair, so it won't strip or shift your shade.
