Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Olaplex is the brand to know if you’re looking for high-performing at-home hair treatments. Its formulas are backed by science – in particular a patented bond builder that works by attaching itself to the broken bonds in your hair.

It’s this technology that makes hair stronger, healthier and more resilient, as the product works by infusing strands and repairing split ends.

If you’re wondering where to start, the brand’s bestselling product, the no.3 hair perfector, has been praised by our writers for its ability to transform dry, brittle strands into “softer and healthier-looking” locks, with “less breakage and shower fallout”.

With such rave reviews, if your hair could do with a bit of TLC, this at-home treatment is certainly worth giving a try. The catch? Olaplex’s products don’t come cheap, but fear not, as we’ve found an Amazon offer worth snapping up.

Right now, the no.3 perfector is reduced by more than 40 per cent at the online retail giant. So, if you want to treat your lacklustre locks to IndyBest’s favourite at-home treatment, read on for everything there is to know.

Olaplex no.3 hair perfector: Was £28, now £16.50, Amazon.co.uk

When we tried Olaplex’s range, the no.3 hair perfector impressed our tester: “It’s been designed to be used once a week, but can be used twice if your hair is extremely damaged”, they said. Although, they found that “using it weekly did the job”.

This weekly treatment repairs bonds from the inside out, and it “worked wonders” on split ends and made our tester’s hair “visibly shinier”. They were so impressed, they even stated it “produced results that were far better than other at-home treatments” they’d used in the past.

In another review, when our tester compared Olaplex with K18’s leave-in treatment, it was noted that no.3 is a “modern-day cult classic hair care product” that is “hard to live up to, let alone beat”. Strands started to “feel softer and look healthier the more we used it”.

Even better, the cult product is now reduced to less than £20.
