Back to Basics: Our 4 Must-Have OLAPLEX Shampoos
When it comes to hair basics, nothing is as elementary as shampoo. It was one of the first products used on us, and to this day it’s one we cannot live without. Hair needs to be clean and healthy in order for products to fully penetrate and absorb without buildup. This makes OLAPLEX® shampoo superior, as it repairs while gently cleansing the hair. We know not all shampoos are created alike, not even ours, which is why we have four options for any type of cleanse!
Nº.4 Bond Maintenance® Shampoo
Our best-selling, original shampoo, OLAPLEX Nº.4 Bond Maintenance® Shampoo repairs, strengthens, and nourishes all hair types. Allure 2024 Readers’ Choice Award winner, Nº.4 repairs damaged hair, split ends, and frizz. It leaves hair easier to manage and gives it shine, all while making it healthier with each use. Nº.4 is color-safe and proven to reduce breakage while strengthening any hair type. This is your ‘everyday’ shampoo, for use whenever you shampoo.
Nº.4P Blonde Enhancer™ Toning Shampoo
Nº.4P Blonde EnhancerTM Toning Shampoo repairs, hydrates, and brightens all blonde, lightened, and grey hair without dulling the hair or stripping it. This highly concentrated purple shampoo cleanses, tones, and repairs with a rich lather that neutralizes brassiness and boosts brightness after one use. It’s scientifically proven to make hair 3x brighter compared to top purple shampoos and can be used 2-3 times weekly or as often as needed to neutralize unwanted brassiness.
Nº.4C Bond Maintenance® Clarifying Shampoo
Buildup makes healthy hair dull, discolored, dry, and unmanageable. Nº.4C Bond Maintenance® Clarifying Shampoo optimizes hair results with a surface-level deep cleanse that removes chlorine, product buildup, excess oil, hard-water minerals, heavy metals, and pollutants. Most clarifying shampoos leave hair rough and wiry, while Nº.4C restores shine and leaves you with hair that’s soft with airy volume, vibrant color clarity, and a clean scalp. For best results, use weekly to remove buildup.
Nº.4D Volume Detox Dry Shampoo
Nº.4D Volume Detox Dry Shampoo is a healthy-scalp dry shampoo with light-as-air dry cleansing technology for scalp and hair that feel just washed without buildup or powdery residue. Nº.4D leaves hair looking first-day fresh with weightless body, and it’s clinically proven not to clog follicles. Use our award-winning dry shampoo on any hair type or texture. We recommend applying Nº.4D between wash days or on clean, dry hair to amplify first-day styles.
How to Choose Your OLAPLEX Must-Have Shampoo
The best way to choose the right OLAPLEX must-have shampoo for you is to know your hair’s needs. While OLAPLEX Nº.4 Bond Maintenance® Shampoo can be an everyday cleansing go-to, you might choose from the other OLAPLEX shampoos for these specific haircare priorities:
Brighten Blondes, Silvers, and Greys
Blonde, silver, and grey hair can benefit from a shampoo that combats brassiness and brightens light tones. That means, you should grab Nº.4P Blonde EnhancerTM Toning Shampoo. Pair it with Nº.5P Blonde Enhancer™ Toning Conditioner. This nourishing conditioner is formulated with violet toning agents. Nº.5P neutralizes unwanted yellow tones root-to-tip while softening, detangling, and strengthening your hair. You’ll see brighter, shinier, more evenly toned blondes and grays with each use.
Remove Buildup and Impurities with a Deep Cleanse
If your hair needs a deeper cleanse to remove product buildup and other impurities (all without stripping color), it’s time for Nº.4C Bond Maintenance® Clarifying Shampoo. Reveal your healthiest hair and clear the way for your other products to do their best work with Nº.4C.
