Olaplex 1 Och 2

[Paul]

Hasanyone out there been experience sudden hair loss (or just noticed) from using any olaplex products? Specifically, Olaplex #3? My hair was gorgeous 6-8 months ago, but after using olaplex shampoo & conditioner and olaplex #3 for a few months, my hair began falling about in groves! I stopped using it many months ago, but my hair is still falling out. I contacted the company, and of course they say their product is not linked to hair loss -- of course they sl say that. Not one other product has ever caused my hair to fall out like olaplex and no other health conditions nor products can be attributed to my major hair loss. What in the world is in these products?? Can somebody please help or share their experience. Have Mercy! Make it stop! Olaplex, I am so mad at you! I wish somebody could get to the bottom of this! I urge you to be careful with these products. I know they've been hyped, but I know this is not just me and I hope to get to the bottom of this or at least find something to grow my hair back. It has been a nightmare!!

I've been experiencing massive hair loss in the last couple of months. At first I didn't think too much of it, but then it became really noticeable. Like, a fairly large pile in the shower, and with each brushing I clean the hair out 2-3 times. I have always had really thick hair. I have been using the entire Olaplex line for several months...maybe even about a year? I bleach my hair and heat style and it did stop the breakage. But now I'm losing it!! I've stopped all Olaplex products after reading this thread, among others. Any idea if or when my hair will stop falling out? I'm so upset!

They supposedly reformulated without butylphenyl methylpropional (lilial) which is an ingredient that is banned in European Union linked to infertility. Similar to BPA, phthalates, and parabens, lilial can act as an endocrine disruptor. Endocrine disruptors are chemicals that may mimic or interfere with the body's hormones - which is why Too much estrogen causes hair loss and thinning hair. OLAPLEX says they have removed lilial from it's product as of January 2022 - Check when you purchased it and throw it away if you see butylphenyl methylpropional as an ingredient on your bottle.

***IMPORTANT*** in United Stated FDA does not regulate what goes into ANY cosmetic/personal product list and ANY and ALL harmful ingredients can be hidden under the ingredient named FRAGRANCE/PARFUM. Only through an independent lab tests would any of us know what is actually in everyday products we are using if they are scented. This is the most frustrating, upsetting and devastating fact about products sold to us without clear laws for companies to abide by. At this point I used pretty much every product on recall list, everything with ingredients that were banned in EU in 1990 but not in USA and I lost half of my hair. Only about a month ago I had an aha moment from a random search in google about hair loss which popped up settlements and lawsuits, which ultimately took me through the rabbit hole of 'it's not what the product claims to do - it's what's in it we should avoid'. Olaplex is currently being sued in Canada as of March 3, 2022....

Hi everyone, I am considering meeting with a lawyer to see if we have a case for a class action lawsuit. Does anyone know if this has already been done and failed or in the process? I see mentions that there should be one but no evidence that there is.

My hair dresser used the Product on me in April of this year. Since then my hair has been falling out by the chunks. The texture of my hair feels like straw. So bad. I had long shiny and healthy hair until she put this product on it

Hey! I am going through the same thing and have joined Olaplex Hair Loss group over on FB. Please feel free to join. Personally I am out for blood and want a class action lawsuit, so I want us to be consolidated.

l have used Olaplex for a while. Shampoo, conditioner and the famous number 3. No difference. Although my hair was healthy, to begin with. I had no extensive damage so maybe l am not the right person to comment on it.

My friends have bleached their hair. Their hair looked much healthier and shinier right away. An instant success. However, after some time they too had experienced the same dryness, thinning ends and damage like me.

- Olaplex works well with bleach but slows down and limits the amount of lift that is possible.

-Works extremely well when you are wanting to get less than 3 levels of lift but can causes more problems when trying to go lighter than 3 levels.

- if I lift only a few levels, olaplex will make it feel healthier.

- if I have a client with dark almost black hair and aim to lifting many levels, olaplex will make it more damaged(I suspect this is because it plateaus at level 8 medium blonde and require much more processing to get that extra lightness that results in overprocessing)

-Olaplex works well on hair that is fine in diameter. coarser hair diameter does not work as well. so dark asian hair that is fine will work well but medium to coarse does not.

-When hair color/bleach over-acceleration happens (product conducting too much heat) olaplex is the only thing that has kept the hair from breaking.

- when doing a double process, (bleach and then color after). adding olaplex to the hair color will result in more breakage if the hair has light blonde (level 10) areas.

- olaplex works well when it is already present on the hair before bleaching or coloring to prevent damage.

I used Olaplex the first year they came out. This bond builder created new possibilities for hair but I also have encountered some issues. When the company first launched they recommended to increase the developer strength when using bleach. They also recommends for you to not shampoo after bleaching because it can rinse the active ingredient off the hair. I quickly learned that this was not a good idea and realized that the directions from the manufacturer is incorrect so I had to find my own way of using it.

The innovation behind Olaplex was in the story and the creation of a new chemical entity. A new chemical entity in a new category for hair care-a chemical entity that would revolutionize hair care and deliver on its promise to perform much better than any other product in the market-hit the jackpot-have to give credit where credit is due!
