How Celebs Get Blond Hair so Shiny it Should Be Illegal

Sometimes, hair may seem too far gone to repair it, but there's a chance for revival. "Once hair is broken and damaged, there is no way to mend the split ends or broken hair without trimming," said Le Salon at Sofitel owner Angela Kalinowski. Thankfully, however, "there are now many additive products that keep the cuticle of the hair intact, even after lifting it up multiple levels (aka bleaching)," said E! Style Collective celeb hairstylist Jennifer J.

So What Is Olaplex? Olapelx is a hair color additive that eliminates the negative reaction oxygen has in chemically treated hair that leads to breakage. In other words, it "helps prevent further damage when lightening your hair; however, it does not repair hair that is already broken or split," shared Angela. To protect your locks from harsh bleach dye jobs, do as the celebs do and ask your stylist to include the add-in onto your own bleaching sessions. The company also makes a take-home maintenance version, Olaplex Hair Perfector No. 3, which is the one that Catt uses religiously.
