Most Olaplex Treatment sessions at Catalia take 30 to 60 minutes depending on hair length and condition. Consultation determines precise timing; color or additional services may extend appointment time. We tailor application and processing to achieve optimal bond repair safely.

Olaplex rebuilds and reinforces broken bonds, markedly improving texture and strength. While it restores considerable integrity, extremely compromised hair may require multiple treatments and trimming. Results vary by damage level, but many clients experience noticeable improvement after a single session.

Treatment frequency depends on hair condition; many clients benefit from an initial series of one to three sessions spaced weeks apart. For maintenance, a single session every two to three months or use of Olaplex at-home products helps preserve results.

Olaplex ingredients are generally considered low-risk, but Catalia recommends consulting your physician before treatment if pregnant or breastfeeding. We can review product details and alternative restorative options to accommodate your safety preferences and medical guidance.

Yes. Olaplex can be integrated into color and lightening services to protect bonds during processing. Your stylist will sequence treatments appropriately—either added during color services or performed as a standalone bond-repair service for best results.

Use Olaplex at-home products and sulfate-free shampoos to prolong treatment benefits. Avoid excessive heat styling and harsh chemical processes for a few weeks. Schedule follow-up appointments and follow stylist recommendations for maintenance tailored to your hair type.
