The affordable dupe could be a godsend - but did it work?
Luxury haircare brand Olaplex has taken the world by storm with its pricey products said to 'repair bonds' in damaged hair.
Long story short, I'd rather not be spending ridiculous money on haircare, which is why I was so chuffed to see that Aldi has launched its own Olaplex No.3 dupe. There are four products in the new Olaplex dupe range including the Lacura Bonded shampoo and conditioner, Lacura Bonded pre-wash hair treatment and the Lacura perfect proof extreme clean dry shampoo.
In terms of consistency, the Lacura Bonded treatment is thick, but it's not as thick as Olaplex. With Olaplex, a little goes a long way with the product, which is what makes it last so long. With the Aldi Lacura-Bonded, you do need slightly more to really coat the ends of your hair. This is something I'd be way more willing to do with a product that cost me less than £5 as opposed to £28, though.
When I tied my hair up in a scrunchie for the evening, it felt more like my hair was wet as opposed to having actual product on it. With Olaplex, your hair feels quite slimey, but the Aldi product didn't give the same effect, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. One thing I will say is that there were a few knotty sections present after applying all three products, but it was once I'd dried and styled my hair that I could really see the difference. My hair felt like silk and looked generally more vibrant in colour after applying the product.
