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’ve also been impressed with K18. My hairdresser recommended it and it’s been great. I followed the advice to use it over the next six washes and my hair definitely feels healthier. But I’d love to try the Redken product as well.
K18 Helped restore my hair back as well
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.
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.
K18 felt nice on my hair for the first few tries, but then it started to feel weird and more dried out. I stopped using it and now i do once a month and it’s fine, but not the best for me
I need the skincare equivalent of Chris in my life. SO much time, SO much money wasted! I just need straightforward, non-incentivized advice. TY Chris!

Yes! I fkn hate all those 30 minuts long videos where a girl with already perfect hair or skin place tries a product ones and then tells her opinion like LOOK MY HAIR ARE SO SOFT SO THAT MEANS YOU HAVE TO BUY THE PRODUCT. And as I said they have perfect hair from the start.
@@ernellybreton9676 I second this! She's amazing
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.
Doctorly
He is totally right on new Olaplex products. Olaplex was bought by private equity and that’s when they expanded the product range to increase the ARPU (average revenue per person) but the founding products i.e. No. 3 is the only really innovative product made by the original CEO and team
As someone who hates wash day, K18 was a game changer for me. I no longer despise washing my hair. I'm in the shower for so much less time and my hair is so much less damaged without having to leave treatments in my hair for ages and then jump back in the shower to rinse it out. If you like low maintenance products, K18 every single time.
Like I just wanna know who has the time or patience to wet their hair, apply a product, wait for ages, then shower, and then leave conditioner/ mask in for ages too? Absolutely tf not for me lol I salute the rest of you tho
You wash it out? Bc I used it and it made my hair so greasy 😢
@@smiah7898 thank fuck im not the only one... im so tired of haircare i sometimes just want to shave it off ;_;
@@emi2922 SAME, the other day my classmate offered me 20 bucks for shaving my clavicle length hair and when I tell you I was about to accept I mean that, but then I remembered that really short hair destroys my self esteem so I rejected the offer
Do you use the K18 molecular repair mask?
There’s so much info out there that it is very nice to hear this directly from somebody who knows what they are talking about. I was quite literally online trying to make a decision on which to buy about an hour ago so this was so helpful. Thanks for caring about our hair Blowout Professor!!!
You are lucky.. I have spent $100’s of dollars to learn just now which one is better.. K18 wouldn’t recommend anyone at all..
It is still going to be wrong lol. I have learned that the hard way. Bought the Olaplex range and their number 3 made my hair fall to an extent that i had to visit the dermatologist. So what im saying is none of these reviews can guarantee what the product is going to do to your hair
@@sofiakazmi3429I've not tried the other ones, but k18 I would vouch for. It improved my naturally broken hair like nothing else.
I would still be getting scammed by sponsored RUclipsrs if you and Leslie didn’t make these videos. Thank you for not scaring me away from Olaplex because it has saved so much of my hair. 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.
I'm not sure about "not sponsored".. have you ever walked into a salon & only seen one brand only on their product wall? (Not that being sponsored is bad, these content creators gotta eat too!!)
@@neekromancerhe teaches us how to be smart consumers of hair care products.
@@neekromancer exactly lol I don’t know why and how are these people so gullible.
If what he says makes sense you should not use the oil after diffusing but before, shouldn´t you?
I absolutely loved this video because there’s so much from every brand and with all this info I know what brand to use, what product from each brand, and how to use it.
It’s always so overwhelming but videos like this make it so simple. Thank you, Chris for all of the amazing info and for making it fun and easy to learn.
Thank you, AGAIN!!! 🙏🏼 You are the only one I trust by being up front and not promoting items just to get us to buy them. I already use the Redken volume injection and will try the Redken for this too.
Love how Chris doesn't bs you into buying a bunch of products you don't need!!❤❤
OMG! thank you!! finally found someone who is just straightforward and not trying to sell thousands of products as a sponsorship! big fan of you from now on!
Thank you!! I’ve recently experienced hair damage and finding accurate info as well as figuring out which products work has been a major challenge. Super grateful I came across your channel xo.
I really appreciate your no nonsense approach to talking about these products and using them.
I started following all of your advice and I can’t even see damage from having my hair lightened monthly at the salon. It’s been game changing for me. It helps to have an amazing stylist who understands bleach well, but with doing my part at home, I have the best hair of my life these days.
My dude, I know you keep reading this but I’ve been following your advice for 4 months now and my hair has never been this healthy. I can’t thank you and Leslie enough ❤
Thank you Chris for answering all my questions before I even knew I had them! You have improved my hair and my hair routine and I’ve never even been in your salon 💕
Dear Chris,
I've been following you and your advice for a while now and I've finally started to love my hair. I have been dependent on hairdressers for decades because only then was my hair neat and tidy. The comment was always "well, your hair is dry and there's nothing you can do about it". And then when I found you, things changed drastically. You explain everything so well and give concrete advice that now I can do my hair at home myself and make my hair neat and beautiful. It also stopped growing, that is, it was tearing at a certain length, which is no longer the case, thanks to you. I just wanted to thank you because you have done more for my hair than anyone so far, and that only with your selfless advice, knowledge and experience. A big thank you!
Advice for fellow Budget Girlies - Redken is owned by Loreal, and the Loreal brand bond repair products are identical to the Redken one - they’re both identical citric acid bond repairers. In America I think it’s Loreal EverPure and in Europe and Australia it’s in the Loreal Elvive line. I love them both!
How do you know redken is the same as loreal?
@@michhenley Loreal owns a lot of brands, luxury (L' oreal professional, Kérastase, Redken) to popular ones (elvive/Elseve, Garnier)
And we're only talking about hair!!!
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 🤷🏻♀️
They are really not the same at all. I've tried both and Redken ABC is light-years ahead, so it's better to save up a bit and invest in Redken, if your hair is damaged.
@michmh50 it is 👍🏻👍🏻
The Redken ABC is amazing! Thank you for the recommendation! I’m about 8 weeks in and my hair hasn’t looked this good in years. I was in the salon yesterday, stylist was amazed at the difference. She said “keep doing whatever you’re doing because it’s working”. Please keep the fun and informative coming.
Hiya. Did you use the 3 products
Yep, I actually loved the ABC more than Olaplex and K18
what is your routine? idk how to use it
I have Redken the 3 products! They are amazing and I agree with Chris the only product you need from those 3 is the product that you put before the shampoo, it is really hydrating!
Yes it is Redkin has always had great hair products I use the volume conditioner and shampoo and my hair is still soft and manageable but full and voluminous
Just brilliant advice! So clear and concise. Will be getting everything for my fine hair,as you are the only person,I have heard who actually understands how one should proceed if your fine hair is so so different to all the people you know,who have long luxurious locks. So happy to have found you on you tube. Thank you so much.
Hi Chris, absolutely LOVE your youtube channel !! You have truly saved my hair. I love your no BS attitude and your easy to follow hair guides. Please have a trip to Australia so you can do my hair xxx
Thank you!!! I stumbled across your channel recently and binge-watched, then bought the recommended products and my hair has never felt better! I'm in my forties and I have hormone issues and iron issues and at one point in my late 30s I actually kept my head shaved for a few years, but now I'm confident that I can get my long hair back! ❤❤❤ps and yes I use this Redken product 🎉
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!
Love your channel 💗
Thanks for this! I used it once and my hair got so greasy afterwards without washing it out.
Have you tried redken yet?
Is it necessary to use conditioner?cause i'm ok to not rinse out k18 and style my hair after 4 minutes
Do you rinse the K18 out before you put conditioner? Or do you add conditioner over the K18 and then rinse both?
@@Corrans I understood that you leave it in, but would like to be sure!
I love your videos they have been so educational! I was hesitant when I saw k18 on here then when I heard what you had to say; I grew to love this channel more. K18 destroyed my hair so badly, I had so much breakage I lost about 4 inches off my hair. Thank you so much for the honesty!! ❤
So glad I came across this bc I was legit going down a rabbit hole. I don't color, perm, or really even blow dry or curl my hair but it's just lost luster. I used to just wash and air dry my hair to straight perfection and now it's stringy looking. Thank you for the advise.
The best video yet on these bond repairs. Soooo thorough. Thank you!💕
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.
I am so grateful I just ran across 1 of this guy's videos! It's obvious that he's just telling it as it is. 10 minutes, once a week is so awesome! He's definitely my hair guru! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us!💯💞✂️💞💯
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO HONEST & debunk the reality behind each product that was marketed highly ❤️❤️❤️
I’ve always been a redken girl nearly 30 years now. Was looking at ovaplex lately. I’m glad I watched your video before buying. 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. Will try for an extra day next time. :)
I started following your regimen and my hair has never been more healthy ❤. I actually thought my hair was falling out, but no, only breaking! This man changed my hair life❤
You saved my life with your videos, my hair is shoulders length and was about to give up, it is very thick, frizzy and crazy and hard to maintain, been watching your videos for the last month, followed your steps and now my hair is crazy amazing I go for a week without washing and styling and looks amazing, it look fresh and light every day, people keep telling me how amazing my hair is, thank you so much
In general I’m have been applying you methods of combing washing coloring and hydrating my hair and i can see my hair getting better every day i very much appreciate your charisma and very insightful information and tips your definitely my number 1 I’m in Europe but when I go to the states I would love to go to your salon!!! Thank you for the great genuine and honest reviews
Chris I am a groupie and your advice has helped my hair sooo much. I found K18 is the best product for my hair, after using Olaplex and Redken acidic bonders. I have coarse, curly, shoulder lengthed hair and color it every 3-4 weeks. Perhaps it’s my hair type but you need to test it and add to your repertoire. Cathy
I just bought olaplex 0 & 3, so i'm super excited to try it, but I've been using k18 for 6 months and my dry colour-treated waist-length hair feels soo much healthier, I don't think I'll ever give it up because of how simple it is. 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.
One the the best videos I’ve seen on YT. Thank you so much for your wonderful advice and detailed descriptions of the most effective products, saving us time and money.A game changer.
Chris is the ONLY voice I heard when it comes to my hair, and I know he's right, judging by the compliments my hair receives, so, THANK YOU CHRIS, hugs from Australia❤
Hairstylist here! Thank you so much for this. I use olaplex in my salon. I carry some of their products… the 3, 6, 9, and the oil… ha… I agree with you on you throughts on their product line! 😂. 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.
Chris and his characters are some of the best on RUclips! 😂 But seriously , this video was super informative, and more importantly, clear cut and easy to understand. Thank you for bringing your knowledge to the masses!
Thank you for providing the most effective step by step process for the Redken Bonding product. You’re the best Chris! 🙌🏼🎉
I was so confused between these products. Thank you for making it simple and being honest. You’re hilarious😂your videos are so entertaining!
I have followed your advice since March 2023. I even have highlights in the front. I havnt needed a hair trim and I cannot find more than 3 -4 split ends in months. You have SAVED MY HAIR! I knew there was a simple elegant answer ! Thank you! My hair has never in 51 years looked this beautiful!!!
Hi! What did you do?
Im so grateful I found your channel!! You’ve helped me and my hair so much, thank you for helping me understand the science behind hair. My hair is finally growing longer and healthier because of you, THANK YOU!!!😭😭
WOW, thank you, thank you. This is the first time EVER that I feel that I'm not "being sold", and I've been watching you tube for many many years, so JUST, Thanks. Dawn from Canada.
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.
Thank you so much for recommending the morrocanoil weightless mask, it makes my bleached hair feel so soft and nourished, and before it was always Bone dry 🙏🏼
The best and most sincere recommendation I have ever seen, the world needs more stylists like you, thank you very much.
I love your channel sooo much ❤ I have been trying so badly to get great skin and I'm so sick of it, I need a break. You've already helped me so much, my hair is just feeling so better and it's so much easier to work with.
After a bleach job at the salon that severely damaged my hair, I've used all three of these products. K18 was the best for immediate help.
WOW Chris, you’ve done it again! I’m so serious rn this video might be the best one I’ve seen all year on RUclips about haircare. So informative and dare I say, life-changing, especially for those who have considered chopping it all off b/c of damage. I can’t even believe that there’s a product out there that can fix damaged hair 50%, let alone 98% after only 8 uses! Thank you so much for your wisdom Chris. And shoutout to Leslie and whoever edits these vids! Perfect dose of comedy + education. 😅 Love y’all! ♥️
I've always hated my coarse curly hair and I've destroyed it by straightening it for 13 years. I've found this channel and I thought "well, let's try these advices. What can go wrong?", so I followed your advices and OH MY GOD!!! I don't even recognize my hair anymore! In just 3 weeks! A huuuuge thank you from me and my hair!!
love love love this video!!! thank you!!! you are the only one itrust! i was educating my hairdresser after seeing your videos
I have dry, coarse afro hair, and prefer k18 as it saves me time (I’m super lazy). I just use a leave in afterwards, it took about 4 washes to really notice the difference. I can’t get the redken but have used the elvive equivalent which was good but for me more effort. Since stumbling across your channel I have been able to simplify my routine and my hair is shedding less, less split ends, detangling is practically non existent and it’s waayy more softer
I guess everyone is different. I LOVE the K18 and can feel an immediate difference in my hair whenever I use it. Even my hairdresser noticed a huge difference in my highlighted, dry, curly hair. I have used Olaplex and it was okay. I've not tried the Redken yet.
Me too k18 wins for me but haven’t tried the Redkin one.
I tried all three of them and only K18 makes a significant, observable change
Most people use k18 wrong. Once properly trained people fall in love with it. K18 is literally the easiest treatment I’ve ever used. A 4min leave in can’t be beat. Less is more with this product. Sounds like Chris hasn’t properly taught his clients how to use k18 cause mine can’t stop asking me about buying more
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.
I also have bleached curly hair and love K18 and do not like Olaplex 3.
Great advice as usual here! Thank you! Your recommendation about leave in conditioner and how to actually wash my scalp have transformed my hair. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
Thank you for this! I was struggling to find a good bonding treatment to test and thanks to you I just purchased the Redken. Look forward to the results.
Loved this video! I’m currently using K18 only I use it a little differently. After it sits on my hair for the 4 minutes the brand says to, I re-wet my hair and condition. 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.
This weekly routine actually sounds like a great excuse and opportunity for some self care, Enya playlist and candles and all!! 😊
thank you for this honest video!! calling out on the bs the companies try to sell to the consumers! so helpful thank u blowout prof!!
I took your hair quiz…and was soooo close to buying the redken shampoo and conditioner set but it just made more sense to buy the treatment. I am so happy with the results and I actually look forward to my weekly Monday treatment! I owe to all to you! Thank you 🙏
what shampoo and conditioner are you using in pair with the treatment?
Thank you so much! I will try this
Where have you been all my life? So glad I found your channel! Immediately subscribed. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I just added a few OLAPLEX products to my basket but after your video I will only buy #3 because I got a brand new balayage and my hair is very damaged. Glad I didn't waste money on products that don't work :) Big fan of yours!
I used to use olaplex no 3 but have been absolutely astonished by the K18 repair mask. Now K18 is in my regular routine and I ditched olaplex completely, my hair has never been better.
I watched this video then ran and bought the Redken treatment. Just used it, and wow! You can seriously tell an immediate difference after using it. My hair was starting to look slightly damaged where I got my highlights a while back and now it’s super smooth and shiny. No trace of damage. Thank you, Chris!
Which one did you get?
I had to stop in the middle of the video, Chris, to complement the awesome visual presentation! You’ve totally upped the ante on your high quality video display, and not only do I find the subject material interesting, the presentation makes the info that much better! And it’s fun to watch you, too, you cutie pie, and your super cute partner, Leslie, adds a lot, too!!!
Thank you Chris!! As always, spot on!
I have used all three in an attempt to repair my hair after excessive damage. For 14 months, I went through multiple bottles of 0, 3, shampoo and conditioner then 6 & 7. 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.
Agree it is the best!
Except it's
not cruelty free
@@audaciousred Really?! Can you provide supporting details? It's important to me that the products I use are cruelty free.
@@abbysheridan1429 Sure. If you go on a site called ethical elephant or cruelty free kitty (ethical elephant is more comprehensive . I can't put the links as u tube won't allow . Also, I'm sure it will be explained on this site, a lot of companies (such as MAC)will say they are cruelty-free as Allowed by law or words to that effect. This means they sell their products in China and allow third-party testing but it's explained in crueltyfreekitty and I'm almost positive ethical elephant as well
I use to think I knew a lot about hair UNTIL I watched this channel (stylist back in the 90s)! Excellent truthful information and I LOVE that you are NOT trying to sell products that are Inferior or that you need the ENTIRE line to work! BROVO 👏💜
Oh my god that’s what I was telling my clients about olaplex. I’m so happy to find another hairstylist saying the same thing. Thank u ❤
I watched one of your videos, ended up watching most of them. I cant stop watching, so informative. My hair is dry, damaged, coarse, thick, and I am so stressed finding ways to save my hair. Thank you. I will surely try your tips.
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've used both olaplex and k18 and I like k18 better. If you put too much in your hair, it will give your hair a weird sticky-like texture. If you don't go too heavy, it's very nice. The oil is great too. I have long wavy hair and only need a couple of drops.
Yes, also a reminder to everyone out there that you can still condition your hair (after those 4 minutes and then rinse it out)! I have used both olaplex and k18 but i see better results with k18, hair feels softer after some uses and breaks less. While with Olaplex my hair felt nice but kept breaking at the same rate as before
@@SannaNaumanen it also lasts longer. I got about 3 applications with olaplex, but k18 lasts me at least a year.
I’m team K18. I saw no difference with Olaplex. I clarify, use K18, wait 5 minutes, add a mask on top, wait 10 minutes, and rinse. Hair shedding way less
Totally agree. I have waist length hair and 3 maybe 4 pumps… wait 4 mins and use a conditioner. And Olaplex is not missed at all. My actually hair healthier with K18… Olaplex is a bandage that last for a few days.
This is such a good video and should reach more people! You explain everything so well. This video is also good for people that don’t know much about how to repair hair. Thank you so much for saving me a lot of money!
Professor, thank you so much. I moved from a totally differently damaging Siberia to Florida. Also moving to the US made it affordable for me to buy all these products. With your explanations I achieved perfect results. Then overdid with sun and pool and here again to choose a product to support hair again.
First time I tried K18 for a few weeks and hated it as it made my hair feel gritty, weighed down and dry. I re-visited it a few years later by clarifying my hair, using LESS product (biggest change!) and it completely changed my mind and transformed my hair. The brand said you can use conditioner after, as long as you wait the 4 minutes. My hair looks absolutely incredible now! Also, their detox shampoo is very good.
Sounds like what Abbey Yung was saying on her channel
Does it help with breakage?
@@dazzfirelove her and she gives good options!
/? So K18 is it good??
I started using Olaplex a couple months ago based on your recommendation and I love it! It's the only thing that's helped my hair so far. I also started your trinity routine & my hair has been looking & behaving so much better.
I used K18 since last October, and i just love it! It got to the stage, wheb my hair does not look better, but I also mix my conditioners, and one of them is Redken Bonding Condinioner and also some Leave-In Stuff from IDHair. Makes hair look the BOMB❤
😮 No. 8 makes my dry, damaged, and incredible coarse hair all soft and healthy looking!!! Agreed with No 3 and 6.
K18 made a massive difference for me and I was using olaplex regularly. I think k18 steers you wrong by telling you not to use a conditioner or leave in after the treatment time is up. Our hair is damaged, you still need to add moisture to your hair. No wonder people felt like k18 wasn’t working.
Probably because if you use a conditioner afterward, the conditioner ingredients will coat the hair and make it slippy. And thereby it feels better. Hair doesn't need moisture, hair needs conditioning.
@@elin_the main ingredients in conditioners are moisturisers.
@@canesugar911 no, the main ingredients in conditioners are conditioning ingredients.
@@canesugar911moisture means water
Redken Bonding Treatment was the one that helped my hair the least! I had to give it away, and I really gave it a try over months. My favourite is the K18!
Came across your channel . Very thorough and to the point . Thank you
Thank you very much! Your videos are very helpful for me! I can now manage my hair better and it is much shinier again. I tried to follow your tips and I am very happy :)
*Yes!* ☺️ I‘m always looking forward to watch a new upload!
I saved a lot of money skipping the olaplex set! 😊
Thanks great video😊, i have used olaplex and k18, i liked olaplex but in my hair k18 is next level i cannot live without it
Thank you for these insider tips...I always had an instant I needed leave in conditioner but now I know for sure
I just ordered the redken one and decided afterwards to search for videos. So happy I did it now 🎉 can’t wait to try it out
As a bleach blonde with REALLY damaged hair, I just used Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate for the first time (literally blow drying my hair rn) and I am AMAZED at the difference after just one application! Thanks Chris!!! Curious to see the results after a few more applications, but for now I am completely impressed!
How has it been any updates
will write more later. I only use it once a week. 🤗
Hi @lazg9733; recommendation to buy. My hair has never been so soft and smooth to the touch. It's not a miracle, but I definitely see a difference after using it once a week for a few weeks. My hair is softer, smoother and looks almost shiny which is a big deal for my usual straw head...
@@yaddaguitar3636how does it compare to K18 or Olaplex? What is your hair type?
For anyone here with curly hair, olaplex 0, 3, 8 and 6 work especially well in repairing damaged curls and retaining moisture. I use 0,3 and 8 once to twice a month and the 6 once a week.
YOU ARE GOOD! 😄👍🏻Just tried what you suggested and I felt a difference in my hair from the first use. I just didn’t know about that product before you mentioned it.
I tried k18 for months in the past but really couldn’t tell whether it did anything for my hair but it comes recommended by so many people on social media !?!🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️
I had to subscribe! Such an honest review! I felt exactly the same about k18 I literally used it once and never went back. I will be trying the redken.
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 100% with the redken and the olaplex (haven’t tried the k18 yet). The redken one feels like a conditioner… one of those cheap ones I used to use from the supermarket that made my hair silky AF as a teen haha. Olaplex didn’t really make any difference or feel different for me! Just bought the k18 leave in tx which I’m excited to try!
This was sooooooo helpful. Thank you! 🙌
I would love a video series where you go over the trendy products vs your recommendation, like you did for Ogx. I loved seeing how they stack up and whether or not some things I can cut corners on in terms of budgeting. For example, I know I can use Ogx’s shampoo and conditioner when money is tight, but I can’t skimp on the oil. I would love for you to go over function of beauty pretty please, since it’s a little cheaper than redken.
I love your channel ❤ Thank you. I use all 3 & just added Epres too! Can you do a review on epres & the k18 professional mist? 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.
DUDE!!! I was an OG subber, and you are almost at a half million now. DAYUM, SUPER PIOMP!!
So far, so good. I've switched back to redden since I've been watching you, and my hair is so much better. I will try that new Redken hair repair.
thank you, thank you! I've been wondering what the hype has been over olaplex and i was too overwhelmed to try one lol. I've been using redkin but still need damage control. Thank you so much!
Definitely prefer the redken bonding treatment over olaplex3
Can you make a video of how to tell damaged hair to healthy hair like what to look for?
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.
Which product from L'Oreal specifically? Thanks
