      skincare comes down to using a sunscreen, moisturizer, cleanser, and a prescription retinoid. Way more simpler than hair tbh, especially since there are actual scientific studies backing this.

    I know this video is a year old, but I just subscribed a couple of weeks ago. I'm in my 60s and have medium-long, naturally wavy, silver / gray hair, which needs some TLC. Overall, it's healthy, but it looks fizzy and untamed after my wash day (I only wash one day a week now, but have been using your recommended hair washing technique for years. Thank goodness I was doing something right). I've binged watched many of your previous videos on hair care. I've already purchased the mask, leave in conditioner, and detangle brush you've recommended but needed an intense hair repair binder. I went to Amazon, and the choices were overwhelming. I have the Olaplex and Redken in my cart but couldn't decide which one. This video is what I needed to help me choose. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

    Love the K18 - it totally saved my hair after a bad bleach job.
    Maybe I'm using it wrong?
    I shampoo then towel dry my hair, add 4 pumps of product to my mid length hair and comb it through. Then I put on a shower cap to keep it from getting wet. After 4 minutes I take off the shower cap, put on the Redken dark purple conditioner and comb it through. Shower cap goes back on for 5 to 10 minutes depending on what else I have left to do. Rinse my hair off, out of shower, and put a t shirt on my hair to dry it and my hair turns out gorgeous - like strangers compliment me on it.

    I have been using k18 for over a year and it did much more for my hair than olaplex 3 😅 but K18 has now said that AS LONG AS YOU WAIT THE 4 MINUTES for it to process, you CAN use a conditioner. So I use the k18 mask, wait the 4 minutes and then apply my deep conditioning hair mask over it, wait 10 minutes, and rinse. And it still works (per the company). I feel like your stylists probably didn’t like the feeling of it because they went without conditioner- god knows I CANT skip conditioning!!!! ♥️ but I wouldn’t swear it off- K18 truly has benefited my hair, and I used Olaplex 3 for 1 year prior.
    I am interested in trying the Redken!

    I like Olaplex but K18 has blown my mind. Whilst it hasn't made my chemically treated hair feel like virgin hair, it feels exponentially healthier than it did before. It makes my hair wash days so easy too. Your hair does actually need to be damaged to actually get something out of K18.

      I completely agree! I hate to disagree with Chris. But I used Olaplex for over a year and it’s good. But I bit the bullet and got the K18… and there is no comparison!! K18 blows Olaplex out of the water. I don’t buy Olaplex anymore. It’s truly unbelievable the results you get with K18… they didn’t like K18 bc how it felt on the hair. Tells me they used too much. Too many pumps. I have hair down to my waist and K 18 has made my hair so manageable. It use to take me up an 1hr to detangle my hair even using Olaplex. K18 and I’m like who’s hair is this. It’s insane. I use two pumps on each side of K18 for my waist long hair. Let it set for 4 mins and then I wet my hair again and use conditioner.

    • @astridh1384

      I think not using conditioner afterwards is what people don’t like about K18.
      Longs story short after seeing feedback from K18, it is actually safe to use conditioner or a mask after waiting the 4 minutes, and that makes a world of difference.
      K18 is superior for sure.

I tried the k18 salon system, as a trial on MY OWN HAIR, I had been using the olaplex system in my own coloring services, and I had half of my hair break off when using the K18 color bonding system. Never again. I also just received the Redken acidic bonding treatment, and gave it to a client to try on their own hair… and they LOVE IT! Good info! Thanks so much for your work.

    K18 works so well for me. I used olaplex no 3 from the beginning and while I saw results from it, never to the extent of k18. With olaplex my hair was still very tangly, even on regular conditioner days. In olaplex wash days, the tangles after were miserable. With k18, I can forgo conditioner(special event hair since mine is baby fine and barely holds a curl) and my hair brushes out with little to no tangling. My hair has never been as healthy as it is with k18. I notice if I use it too much, then it starts to feel not as healthy. So when I get my fresh highlights, I use it after washing for the next few washes and then go back to the every 3 washes schedule.

    K18 4 minute leave in treatment transformed my hair after just one use! It has saved me from having to chop my hair off and regrow it. Olaplex 4 & 5 were damaging my hair and causing shedding. That stopped when I switched to Redken volume shampoo & the K18. I still use Olaplex 7 on the ends with excellent results, but the K18 in salon spray, K18 at home 4 minute leave-in are the best products I’ve ever used.

      Those 2 brands are not identical AT ALL. I have tried each brand for long time and Redken is far far far better. Not even a point of comparison. Unfortunately, there aren’t that many good budget-friendly hair products, and although I think Ever Pure is one of the “best”, still does not compare to Redken, especially shampoos, heat protectant, and treatments. Ever Pure is just a water-down version of high end brands 🤷🏻‍♀️

    @obrules1525 Год назад +44

    K18 has saved my hair from damage after it got overprocessed from multiple types of treatments (the pandemic was a problem). I had to dilute the concentrate in water in a spray bottle to get it properly distributed throughout my hair. I find that now that my hair is in pretty good shape it doesn't seem to do as much but it makes tons of difference if I use it right after getting a perm. It also doesn't work if I don't use a clarifying shampoo(neutrogena not theirs). Olaplex seems to work best when my hair is basically healthy. The redken seems to work the same as other products with that same pH range. Each of the products has a different mechanism of action (disulfide bond repair, peptide chain replacement, ionic (pH) bond strengthening) so I alternate use and get really fabulous results. But I definitely notice variability in how a product works, some weeks are great others not and I don't really know why that is.

      Same feelings here. I’ve tried all three products- olaplex for at a year, redken acidic bonding concentrate for 3 months and k18 for 5 months. K-18 was the second one I tried and gave me the best results. I went back to it after trying redken. It took me a while to figure out the best way to comb out my very wavy/semi curly hair without using conditioner first but I just go very slowly with a wide tooth comb. I’m so glad I stuck with it. I love it. Olaplex was just okay but I used it for so long because that was the only repair product I knew about back then. redken was okay as well, just not as good as k-18.

    Thank you for this video. I bought the redken months ago and just used it this past weekend for the first time. My hair is extremely damaged and chunks of hair rip off each time I shower or brush my hair (Im surprised I’m not bald yet). I did wash it first but now I know I can wash it after leaving it in. Which makes it easier than sitting in the shower with it. Yes I did that. I’ve been using your recommended products from your quiz as well. Just the video I needed! 👍
    I wanted to add that my hair felt SO soft after using the redken repair treatment once. I cannot believe I waited so long to use it.
    Also, I have the redken white bottle conditioner from a while ago, I’ve been using the pink bottle shampoo and conditioner but my hair never felt healthy, and while traveling I took the white bottle left over conditioner and my hair did feel much softer with than one over the volume pink bottle. With damaged hair I’d say the white bottle conditioner is better even if it doesn’t actually repair. At least that’s the case for my thin damaged hair.

I just double-shampoo and hop out of the shower before dispersing 3 pumps thru all my hair. Quickest, easiest, most transformative hair product ever.
    I scored a sample of the redkin though so I'm excited to try that too.

Drove to Tamworth today and brought the redken treatment and the moroccanoil mask. Thank you very much for the information about what works and what doesn’t. I have also been following your advice on washing my hair less frequently and brought a spray leave in conditioner. My hair feels great. Went 3 days before washing.

Then I used the Redken system and was very impressed on the first wash. I only used the K18 treatment twice, just being fair. Ultimately, I recommend the Redken system.

I did my research and the brand says as long as it is on your hair for the full four minutes it’s already penetrated your hair and you can rinse your hair and add conditioner. My hair feels SO much better after only three treatments.

I only had to trim my ends after using No.3 for months. dandruff is gone too now that i have my professional moroccanoil and redken dandruff shampoo. Off topic but do not doubt this man! If you have curls I recommend adding gel and heat protectant for your hair type if you diffuse. If you still need more definition I recommend the Redken Curvaceous Ringlet layered under gel and always finish with your oil after diffusing. It’s super lightweight and they have another one called Redken Curvaceous Curl Refiner found on Ulta. I personally don’t like their Full Swirl product, its a bit dryer.

Our hair is damaged, you still need to add moisture to your hair. No wonder people felt like k18 wasn’t working.

    First time here, thanks! This video was a shock to me. I started using Olaplex & it was the best at the time. I have 3c curly hair darkest brown, & bleached to blonde. Took 2 months to get it to curl individually. & I had a more loose curl. And for me wetting, leaving it in for 30, shampoo, then mask 3-5 min (depending on mask). Absolutely need a mask with Olaplex 3.
    2 years later, k18. First time after bleaching hair it looked like two months after Olaplex but better. Curled individually, smoother, still looser then original. Soft, light (needed for blonde). Shampoo & k18, & done. After 2 months k18 not needed (On off as needed.)
    I’ve been using for 2 years & Curl is back to original. No special shampoo or mask needed. But still need the right shampoo, mask & hairstyling products for hair.
    Once I’m off k18 I use a good shampoo & mask. For me moisturizing. Naturally curly hair is dryer. With virtue shampoo hair grows faster. Ive used about 10 different masks. Bumble&b, Moroccan oil, Olaplex8 my top. Kerastase & others not worth the price or not the best.
    K18 overall cheaper, so much less work.
    I used k18 before RUclips started to review it. It was not recommended by anyone in salon.
    The L’Oréal acid bond however was always recommended by salons. I may give it a try it now.
    I bleach 3 times a year. So for 2 months after I bleach I use k18 & progressive stop using until my next salon date. And use only a mask after shampoo. I style with Moroccan oil. My fav.
    I have used many others including Olaplex smoother & oil. Nothing special.
    My 4 fav lines are k18, Virtue, Moroccan oilBumble&B. recently tried curlsmith and was pleasantly surprised. But sticking to the above for various reasons. Although it works.
    Sorry for the essay. Hope this helps.
    Oh, 1 last thing. When choosing products at each step, I try not to overlap. Ex. Using all repair products at every step or hair routine.
    I use Virtue shampoo for my scalp/ new growth. Hair grows faster, healthier than ever for me.
    I alternate with masks. My goal with masks is hydration, moisturizing.
    Love Moroccan for its shine & I can choose between very curly & looser curls. However by the second day hair does become curlier naturally.
    Once I stop k18 I focus on mask and alternate between hydration & repair.
    But repair masks work differently without having used repair product like k18, acid bond or Olaplex first.

    Thank you so much for explaining!
    I had grown my hair to waist length (a bucket list thing because my mom wouldn't ever let me grow my hair) and eventually cut it off because I didn't know what to do with it. I was about 50% grey then and with menopause, my hair went wavy. Always had dense, baby fine and board straight hair with an oily scalp. When I cut it, it was so dry and damaged I couldn't manage it. Waves only about half way up. The rest sat like a wet rat as always.
    5 years later, I'm tired of cutting my own hair (I can because pixies are easy) and tired of paying a pink tax, so I'm growing my hair again.
    It's wavier than it was before! Also, about 70% silver (which I absolutely love), but I'm concerned about being able to take care of it so that it doesn't get damaged.
    On the hunt for my forever shampoo and have started taking your advice on how to wash and I'm finding I don't have to wash it every day. Still can't get 3 days, but I can get a solid 2.
    Are the products you show here good for all hair types? Even very fine but dense silver hair? Even the lightest conditioner I can find is too heavy. Bobby pins and clips won't stay put because my hair is so fine (or at least that's how it went last time). I don't use any heat or any product in my hair.
    My hair now has a ton of body. It's growing "big" before it goes long. I'm 56 years old and have NEVER had hair like I'm growing now

    K18 is the best for me. I saw amazing results, and have used all three. But it does have extremely specific directions - it’s not a “once a week two month” system. You have to towel dry, scrunch up from the ends, let sit for 4 minutes, don’t rinse. You use it for the first 4-6 washes, and then only as maintenance. The company has come out and said that you can use conditioner after those 4 minutes, which is where I started to see bigger results, as my hair needed that extra moisture. That said, I do also use the Redken ABC once a week now I am in the maintenance phase with K18. The results have been incredible.

    I've been box-dying my hair for literal decades. Because of RUclips, I finally decided to bleach my hair, to get rid of the bit of orange I have (I believe the box-dye formulation has changed over the past several years), and to unify the color-mousy brown to blonde. Admittedly, I used a box bleach and it worked fairly well - 2 boxes and I could have used a 3rd. Anyway, my hair felt a little dry so I was looking at options...wanted something before doing toner.
    I ran across the Redken and it looked good, but then I read that L'Oreal is the cheap version and they also have this product but at a much, much lower price. I have low-porosity hair that's pretty particular about what I put on it and again, it was dry and not that damaged. I used the L'Oreal product and my hair looks pretty terrific.
    Just thought I'd throw this out there for those who can't afford the higher prices of the Olaplex and Redken, at least to see if it works without a big outlay.

    Okay hear me out! I hate to disagree with Chris bc he is my hair god. But K18 blows Olaplex out the water. After using Olaplex for a yr and finally saving the money for the $80 K18, I will never buy Olaplex again. I have waist long hair. I use 3-4 pumps! No more than that. Then after the 4 mins I wet my hair again and use my conditioner. And it’s no comparison. While using Olaplex it would take me over an hour to detangle my hair on wash day. With K 18… maybe 10 minutes. I know Chris is a hair god but I’m thinking the people didn’t like the way their hair felt with K18 because too many pumps of K18 and then didn’t follow with conditioner after 4 mins. I really wanted to hate K18 bc it’s so expensive. But K 18 is the holy grail and in between that Redken is what I do when I take a break from K18 for a few washes. Y’all try K18 for yourself and no more than 4 pumps and conditioner after ❤

      Hi, you shouldn’t rinse K18 out. Wash with only shampoo, then apply K18 on damp hair and leave for 4 min before continuing with styling. If your hair feels dry apply leave in conditioner 🤍

    I use Epres and I'm happy with it. It is much user friendlier than other options. Also doesn't explode your budget like K18. Makes me wonder why Chris never talks about it...

      I use epres as a leave-in conditioner, and it makes my hair glass shiny, a few drops on wet hair and wow my hair is super healthy.
      I've used k18 and olaplex.
      I still use k18 because i noticed the best results with k18.
      I compulsively change my hair color to the point of beyond fried and this combo does help my hair look and feel better.

    I absolutely love the K18 product. It definitely saved my hair. But I’m sure you only have to use it once when your hair is damaged. Using it more only makes it limp and feel bad. It only mends what is damaged, after that it’s wasted product??? I haven’t used the olaplex no.3 yet. But love the no. 6. I will have to try the no.3

    I have natural type 4 hair and my dermatologist recommended the redkin ABC and I had my hairstylist use the full line on me. It's been 6 months and my hairstylist and myself feel a difference! My hair absorbs moisture now instead of just sitting on top. I had damaged and alopecia and all of my hair has filled in immensely!

    You can use conditioner with K18. After shampooing your hair and drying with a towel, you then apply K18, you leave it on for 4 minutes as per advised, then you can add conditioner and leave it for 5-10 minutes and rinse! I actually contacted K18 and they advised me that once the 4 minutes are up, you can add whatever product you want.

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! You just saved me sooo much money! After hearing all the hype I had $75 K18 in my Sephora cart but at the last minute decided to look it up on RUclips. I already have three full size bottles of Olaplex #3, two #0's, and one #2 in my bathroom as it is and I knew I was going to be "iffy" about a leave in product, especially if I didn't like the scent for some reason. I am going to try the Redken just to check it out though so I appreciate this video so much!

I use the professional mist before my color service appointments & in between. I'm wonder if it could be overkill & I'm using too many products that all do the same thing.

    I spoke with a stylist the other day who specialises is hair repair. I told he that I had started using the Redken ABC Pre wash treatment and the leave in treatment, and was using the moroccanoil hydrating hair mask but had just given the ABB 5 minute liquid mask ago. She that was a fantastic idea because that is a treatment, but not to jut just stick with that that because my hair would get used to it it and stop working. She said I should alternate between the ABC mask and the Redken All soft mask, as that is a treatment. My hair is damaged, but there has been a massive change since following your RUclips videos. It's is much healthier, but I an getting a lot of breakage on one side. It looks like someone has grabbed s pair of sizzors and chopped 4 inches off one side. About a year a year ago I had a big hair cut to even it all out, I was devastated to cut my long hair so short. I stopped using hear, apart from blow drying and used everything on you recommend product list. My hair brewback in mo time. Apart from the left side breaking off. That's why I'm using treatments now. What are your thoughts on this?

    I'm wondering if they used the K18 properly... I am a stylist, and I use it on all my clients, and it provides the best results far from anything I have tried including olaplex. The key to k18 is rubbing it in between your palms until it looks like a thick coating on your hands. This releases the ingredients to do it's job. It WILL NOT work unless this step is practiced. Outside of that, I lighten my hair & use high end fantasy colors in it, & wash my hair 1x a week... using k18's shampoo, the mask, then Chris's blow dry instructions & products. BEST HAIR OF MY LIFE!!!

Ive only used the Redken Acidic Bond tratmnt twice now and the repair is so noticeable! Amazing product! I had lost my faith in hair repairing products. My curls are coming back from color and heat damage.

    Oh, I just started using the Redken treatment, perfect timing :)
    One question: do you recommend washing the hair as usual after the treatment (i.e. 2 times), or just once? Or it does not matter?
    Also, what is the amount you recommend? I was using a lot, like conditioner, hehe, just because it makes it easier to apply actually. But I wonder if maybe it is a waste or even an overkill...
    Thanks!!

      I agree. I’m going gray naturally, use to have just a bit of a wave and now that it’s gray the middle part of my hair in the back is super curly but my top and sides are flat. Struggling with trying to get use to curly , frizzy , dry hair. Mine is always up except one day a week I straighten it. If it’s humid , it frizzes.
