Olaplex No.2 Bond Perfector

Olaplex No. 2 can be used as more than just the final step in an Olaplex Service Upgrade. There are a range of ways you can maximise its reparative benefits when performing chemical or colour services in your salon. Check out all the uses of Backbar No. 2 below:

SINGLE PROCESS When working with single process colour, use 1/2 the amount of No. 2 with the colour that you intend to refresh the client’s ends with. Mix it thoroughly and apply to ends and time as usual. The ends will be in better shape and the colour will last longer as a result of using the No. 2 with it.

DIRECT DYES You can use Olaplex No. 2 as a replacement for clear gloss or conditioner to dilute the colour in direct dyes. Adds protection whilst colouring and boosts longevity and vibrancy of the colour! TOP TIP: you can also mix Olaplex No.2 with take-home custom conditioner mixes to continue the reparative process at home PROTECTIVE

TOOL FOR ON-SCALP LIGHTENING Apply No. 2 on previously lightened line of demarcation prior to bleach touch-ups to help prevent overlapping. If over-lapping occurs, Olaplex will work to repair bonds broken.

EXTRA TLC WHILE PROCESSING Dampen the hair left out while processing root colour, highlights, or relaxer retouch and apply No. 2 to these sections. Avoid areas where colour or relaxer is being processed. The client then receives a treatment while they wait for the rest of their colour to process.
TOP TIP: When retouching highlights, apply No. 2 on previously lightened ends to strengthen and protect them while processing.

REPARATIVE BOOST WHEN FOILING After a foil application, treat the hair in between the foils by applying Olaplex No. 2. When some of the hair being foiled has processed, remove the foil, wipe off the lightener and apply Olaplex No. 2 while the other foils continue to process.

COLOUR CORRECTIONS Utilise the No. 2 as frequently as possible when doing colour corrections. For example when there are many sessions of lightening or when you are working with drastic colour changes. Apply Olaplex No. 2 after every single lightening service.
TOP TIP: it is important to rebuild the bonds in the hair before each round of lightening

PERM PREPARATION Mix No. 2 and protein treatment, equal amounts, apply to client and place under dryer with no cap until hair is dry. Using a spray water bottle, remoisten the hair and continue to wrap the perm. This strengthens and preps hair for the perm service.
