What care can you use to build up your hair structure?

In the course of a lifetime, your hair is subjected to a lot of stress. Blow-drying, colouring and heat styling can stress and damage hair. We tell you how you can rebuild broken hair, even if it's already been stressed.

The structure of a hair under the microscope looks like a pancake with many small scales. When the hair is healthy, these scales are tight and form a smooth surface. When it is damaged, however, the scales are open - just like a pine cone! In addition, damaged hair lacks keratin and the bridges inside the hair are broken.

The following characteristics tell you if the hair is broken:

One thing is clear now: hair definitely needs the right care - tailored to your own needs! But be careful, more is not always better. It is important now to use the right products and to give the hair a large portion of attention!

To build up the hair structure, a care product must repair the broken bridges in the hair, strengthen it with keratin and close the dandruff view.

There is no all-in-one solution to solve these three problems with a single product. Products that penetrate deep into the hair cannot close the cuticle at the same time. But with the perfect combination of the right care products, every hair will end up shining again.

Bridges in the hair can break due to colouring, bleaching, incorrect care or too hot blow-drying. These bridges can be repaired with Olaplex, for example. It repairs these bridges sustainably and ensures strong hair. 

Olaplex is not only the brand name, but also the main ingredient of all products. Only the molecular chain Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate is responsible for repairing and reconnecting hair damage inside the hair. 

With a selection of shampoos, treatments and strengthening oil from Olaplex, even the most damaged hair is repaired from the inside!

The gaps in the hair substance must be filled in order to strengthen the hair. This works with hair care that contains high-quality keratin, which is similar to the hair structure.

The last step is to close the cuticle. This is best done with a conditioner that is tailored to the needs of your hair.

If you have coloured hair, for example, it is worth using a conditioner with colour protection. This not only closes the cuticle, but also protects the colour and maintains its shine. However, natural hair does not need these properties, which is why a conventional conditioner is perfectly adequate for your hair structure.

Are you ready to let your hair shine in all its glory, no matter why it's worn out and lacklustre? Then you definitely know the best tips and tricks to make your hair speak for itself every day.
