Olaplex - the hair revolution is here!

Image
If you are colouring your hair you should be looking at Olaplex! - It really is as simple as that! Olaplex has been around in the U.S. for just over a year but it has only just hit the UK shores with just a handful of salons offering the service - but rest assured this is just going to be super huge! Olaplex first came to our attention thanks to Kim Kardashian,.... her super transformation from a dark Brunette to a Blonde baffled the lot of us, some because they thought it is insane, some because they thought it did not suit her, others because she was trying too hard!.... but what most hair stylists were thinking was: 'How does she still have hair?' - and the answer to that is Olaplex! So what is Olaplex? Well, the actual ingredient is a bit of a big mystery, though the speculation is that it is some sort of polymer that is activated with peroxide and coats the hair, but quite frankly I'm not gonna go all Sheldon Cooper on you for as long as the results a...

But back to Cheryl.... I find celebrity endorsements for D-I-Y colour boxes just hilarious.... it started with seeing Kate Moss  (many years ago) for some home highlighting kit - Can totally see her in her en-suite bathroom running the micro brush through her hair! shampooing and towel drying in her egyptian cotton best! Equally Cheryl tweeted the colour , but at least she did not pretend to do it herself! -  'coz you're worth it!' But then came the explanation that it was a 70's inspired look......
