Olaplex products are bond-building treatments that repair broken hair bonds caused by heat styling, coloring, and daily wear. They are sulfate-free, paraben-free, and safe for all extension types, including K-Tips, Wefts, and Tape-Ins.

Using Olaplex ensures that your extensions remain smooth, tangle-free, and shiny while maintaining their natural movement and integrity.

1. Wash

Use Olaplex No.4 Bond Maintenance Shampoo to gently cleanse your extensions without stripping moisture.

Focus on the mid-lengths and ends of the hair — avoid scrubbing the bonds or roots to prevent loosening.

Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

2. Condition

Follow with Olaplex No.5 Bond Maintenance Conditioner to hydrate and smooth your extensions.

Apply from mid-shaft to ends only, avoiding the roots and bonds.

Let sit for 3–5 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.

3. Deep Treatment (Weekly)

Use Olaplex No.3 Hair Perfector once a week for deep repair and strength.

Apply to damp hair, leave on for 10–20 minutes, then rinse and continue with your regular shampoo and conditioner routine.

4. Style Protection

Before using heat tools, apply Olaplex No.9 Bond Protector Nourishing Serum or Olaplex No.6 Bond Smoother for heat protection and frizz control.

Avoid excessive heat styling to preserve the natural pattern and longevity of your extensions.

Additional Care Tips

Do not use products containing sulfates, alcohol, or heavy oils, as they can weaken the bonds and cause buildup.

Wash your extensions only as needed — typically every 7–10 days or when product buildup occurs.

Always detangle gently, starting from the ends and working upward.

Sleep with your hair tied up in a loose braid or ponytail and covered with a satin or silk bonnet or pillowcase.

Using the full Olaplex system consistently will extend the life of your Million Dollar Extensions, keeping them strong, smooth, and radiant from install to reinstall.

1. Clarifying & Maintenance Notes

Even with Olaplex, occasional product buildup from styling products can occur. Consider a gentle clarifying routine every 4–6 weeks using only Olaplex No.4 shampoo to reset the hair.

Avoid over-washing, as it can dry out both your natural hair and the extensions.

2. Detangling Tips

Always detangle before washing and after drying, using a wide-tooth comb or fingers.

Work in small sections from ends to roots to minimize shedding and breakage.

3. Heat Styling Guidance

Heat styling is safe with Olaplex protection, but keep temperature moderate (below 350°F/175°C) to preserve the integrity of the bonds.

Limit heat styling to 1–2 times per week for maximum longevity.

4. Sleeping & Protection

Reiterate tying hair in a loose braid, ponytail, or bun at night.

Silk or satin pillowcases/bonnets prevent friction and tangling.

5. Coloring or Chemical Treatments

If clients plan to color or highlight their extensions, remind them that Olaplex can be used in the process to prevent damage, but professional application is highly recommended.

6. Longevity Expectation

Using the Olaplex system consistently, along with proper detangling and protection, your extensions can last 2–5 years (depending on type and natural hair growth) and remain reusable with proper care.
