Complete with the famous Bond formula, including the No.0 Intensive Treatment, No.3 Hair Perfector, No.4 Shampoo and No.5 Conditioner, this haircare set is all she needs to hydrate, strengthen and repair strands at the quickest speed. "I used to bleach my hair constantly, and I burned it to the point that it felt as dry as a broom. Now, ever since I started using [these products], my hair looks beautiful, healthy and shiny." one buyer on Olaplex shares. "[Basically, I'm] not going back to traditional shampoo and conditioner." Oh, and did we mention the blended formula is vegan and PH-balanced?
We had the pleasure of testing the No.3 Hair Perfector, and much to our surprise, our strands instantly went from dull to silky. So we have no doubts that the full-size bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate packed No.6 Bond Smoother is just as hydrating and smoothing. But don't just take our word for it. One buyer is obsessed with the combo: "[I] love my set. [It] tames my hair and softens, [and] results last till the next shampoo."
This set also features a full-size No.6 Bond Smoother, but buyers are even more impressed with the other two products included: a full-size No.7 Bonding Oil and a sample size, silicone-free No.9 Bond Protector Nourishing Hair Serum. "I'll admit when I first started using the oil, I wasn't impressed, but I quickly became a fan after using it on my driest blowout, plus it's incredibly weightless," PureWow Assistant Editor Destinee Scott shares. "And although you only get a super mini size of the No.9, it came in handy for styling, and achieving some of my smoothest hair."
Frankly, this three-piece set doesn't need an introduction (it features the brand's top-selling full-size, vegan Bond No.4 shampoo and No.5 conditioner. Plus, a ribbon scrunchie to boot). It has helped buyers repair damaged hair from their bathrooms and has also helped enhance growth. "I am a gastric bypass patient, and I have had trouble with breakage and growing my hair...I don’t think I will ever use any other [products], my hair is stronger, and it looks thicker and so much healthier. I even got my mom using it now," one reviewer on Olaplex raves.
For under $200, she'll get a few full-size and mini Olaplex products to take her wash and styling day to the next level, restoring and strengthening strands from the root to the tip. "The difference is immediately visible, the hair is simply amazingly soft. Looks much better after the first two uses," one buyer on Olaplex says. More impressively, the set comes with a cool case to store the products in.
If you really want to spoil her (or yourself, we're not judging), look no further than this full-size eight-piece set. It comes with majority of the brand's products and a convenient beauty bag to store them in. And trust us, she'll get good use out of each product. Take it from this one buyer: "My hair has always been frizzy and brittle. The full system of Olaplex has changed my hair completely in just three weeks! There’s no frizz, and the broken strands at the top are beginning to grow out and be replaced by healthy hair." Sounds like it's worth the investment to us.
