I did the following:
Prewash- Olaplex #0/3
Wash- Olaplex #4 and APB Extreme Hydration
Condition- Olaplex #5 and APB Kiwi Moisture Conditioner
Style: 6 cornrows and a wig; currently in two two-strand twists with Sirod Natural Rice LI and APB 3N1 under a shower cap
I’m experimenting with Olaplex. Olaplex #0/3/4/5 was almost too much protein. I want to see if APB will balance it out. If it does, then I have new staples. If it does not, I may need to use only Olaplex 0/3 and not the shampoo and conditioner.
Results: before using my leave-ins, my hair felt strong, soft, and airy. I had a few strands that felt a little dry, but overall my hair feels balanced. This was a good combination. Now that my hair is no longer color- treated, it acts different. My hair is no longer uniform. I'm going to go peruse the forum and try not to be a product junky.
