Final result:
I believe olaplex made my natural roots curl to their natural state, which probably means it helped the bonds. The problem I had was with my contrasting textures, and the fact that my ends are very tangle prone no matter what, so being this far along adds the tangles. Im unsure if olaplex contributed to it, but my guess would be not that much. If you have fine hair that tangles and are stretching your relaxer, do so with caution.
I did wind up doing protein (Komaza protein strengthener). I love that product because it's like it helps get rid of tangles. i left my protein on for 20 mins, no heat.
After my dc routine, my hair was soft. It came out feeling soft and somewhat stronger. I can see with repeated use that it can help with the strength of my hair. if you don't use direct heat, i think you'd see more gradual benefits than I will. I kind of want to try olaplex on top of my prepoo instead of on shampooed hair.
I would recommend.
