If you don&#8217;t dream big right? I won\u2019t bore you with a long chemistry lesson (mostly because I find it hard to understand myself)\u00a0but in a nutshell, Craig Hawker, a world famous chemist created a new molecule that links broken bonds in hair back together again &#8211; HALLELLUH!\u00a0Basically, when added into your colour or bleach, Opalax will magically protect your hair and prevent any breakage. \u00a0Not only that, tt will also repair the hair when used as a standalone treatment which is what I decided to do since I dye my hair DIY and the results were absolutely incredible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3852.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5157\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3852.jpg?resize=598%2C598\" alt=\"IMG_3852.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3852.jpg?resize=598%2C598 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3852.jpg?resize=290%2C290 290w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3852.jpg?w=640 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a>You know when there&#8217;s a lot of hype around a product that you run the risk of big disappointments, there was none of that with Olaplex. One simple molecule. One simple ingredient. Nothing simple about its effects. My hair has been subject to constant dying over the last three years, so my ends were pretty broken, dry and damaged. Olaplex literally transformed my hair back to the way it used to feel before my mum let me touch it with colour. Not only that, it made it feel thicker, stronger and sit nicer also! Pretty much the best hair day ever.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5159\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?resize=598%2C598\" alt=\"IMG_3869.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"598\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?resize=598%2C598 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?resize=290%2C290 290w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?resize=768%2C768 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?resize=903%2C903 903w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?w=1520 1520w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3869.jpg?w=2280 2280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-5160\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg?resize=598%2C797\" alt=\"IMG_3905.JPG\" width=\"598\" height=\"797\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg?resize=598%2C797 598w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg?resize=768%2C1024 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg?resize=903%2C1204 903w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/foreveryoursbetty.com\/devsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/IMG_3905.jpg?w=960 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 598px) 100vw, 598px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Prices seem to be varying from \u00a350 &#8211; \u00a3100 for a treatment\u00a0but BLOW is sitting at the bottom end of the price tag which means it&#8217;s even better value for money.
