No. 4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo

makes my hair thick shiny and healthyneno complaints with this shampoo at all!

NOT COLOR SAFE!

Not safe for vivid and fantasy colors at all. To make matters worse it smells so bad it makes me gag. For such a concentrated product I have to use it twice just to get it to begin to lather, and I have a short bob with a full undercut. Used alone it does nothing so I use it after my Briogeo Scalp Revival Shampoo scrub to remove any potential remaining grit that may be clinging to my hair after rinsing (the scrub shampoo doesn't strip my color at all btw so I recommend that for vivids). I am trying to salvage this bottle as best I can, even adding perfume oil to it, but it is way worse than generic and drugstore brands at doing what it claims to do.

Dried my hair out

It made my hair feel really dried out and faded my color.

DO NOT BUY THIS!!!

Less than a year ago, I had long, thick, beautiful hair and now I have short, broken and thin hair because of this. I started reading about it and so many other people had the same thing happen. I'm so upset that I switched from my perfectly good Kenra clarifying shampoo to this toxic junk. Please do not buy this. It is complete trash.

this product shouldn't be on the market

used a sample & found it clarifying for my gray hair. seemd to work better than purple products too. so, I bought a full size in Nov-2023 and used it once every 7-10 days. it irritated my scalp somewhat at first, but I ignored that, assuming I was just feeling the "deep clean" promised by the product. then, my hair started to thin & fall out! I reduced usage to every two weeks, again assuming it was simply harsh because of that "deep clean." the scalp irritation (flakes, bumps, redness) got worse, and I stopped using it. I just learned about this lawsuit filed against Olaplex in **2023** for hair loss, dermatitis, and infertility. their products contain a chemical banned by the EU and two other ingredients known to combine into a cancer-causing compound. the dermatitis, hair damage, and hair loss described by the plaintiffs align with my experience. more info: https://www.forbes.com/advisor/legal/product-liability/olaplex-lawsuit/ this product shouldn't be on the market.

Worst shampoo ever!!!

This is the worst shampoo I’ve ever had,it caused my hair to fall off the first time I used it,I’m sorry I bought it.

So good!

Helped my scalp so much! Really makes a difference in the absorption of my other products i use after clarifying. Has a great lather and not too overly drying

Best clarifying shampoo, hands down

Outstanding clarifying shampoo! I was using the Amika one before and loved the menthol and how clean it made my scalp feel, but the Olaplex blows it out of the water. I get tons of scalp buildup and it leaves it squeaky clean without drying my hair out. And I notice any conditioning or treatments I do afterwards sink in faster and more thoroughly. I love the way the gel creates such a fine microfoam that really works into the hair.

Yes but not for colored hair

Great clarifying shampoo! It is awesome for the scalp and getting rid of buildup. However it’s not color safe at all for vivids. But I’m glad I kept it because it’s helping me fade a botched dye job…

I love Olaplex products so I was excited to try this but it was horrible. I’ve used it several times and every time it makes my hair feel dirtier than before.

Avoid if you have blonde extensions

I really wanted to like this product but unfortunately it stripped the colour from my blonde hair extensions. I have ashy/cool toned blonde extensions & this turned my hair very warm/orange which was really disappointing because I struggled to change the colour back after this. I’m sure the product works well for others but if you have extensions, maybe think twice before buying.

Little to no change

I've been testing this product out on my scalp for the last 3 weeks. My hair is mid-length and quite thin, usually needing to be washed after a couple of days due to a really oily scalp. While it works great as a shampoo, my hair feels healthy and clean, I've noticed no improvement on my oily scalp and still need a hair wash after 2 days. Not really worth the price tag in this instance.
