Coloring and straightening your hair a lot can completely destroy its health. Here are the best and most affordable Olaplex dupes you need.

Olaplex Dupe Amazon Edition
Olaplex can be quite expensive! And when you’re on a tight budget, you might not want to break the bank just to save your hair. So get ready girls, I’m here to hook you up with the best Olaplex dupes you can find on Amazon! (shh…don’t tell anyone, my personal favorite is the Aphogee two-step protein treatment, which is why I placed it first). However, everyone’s hair is different, so I encourage you to test out different products until you find the one that works for you : )

1. Aphogee Two-step Protein Treatment
Y’all! I ABSOLUTELY SWEAR BY THIS PRODUCT! As you can see in my profile picture, I have 3c curly hair that used to be extremely damaged. I’m talking about getting more than 100 strands of mid-length breakage every time I wash my hair. My hair was getting SHORTER by the year without me even cutting it. I was desperate to find a product that could save my hair, and the Aphogee protein treatment literally transformed my life.
I tried Olaplex before, and honestly, it didn’t do much for my hair. But with Aphogee… omg, my hair finally stopped breaking after my third use. AND! My hair became so easy to detangle! It was insane. I used to spend at least an hour in the shower detangling, and now I spend less than 20 minutes. If you have thick and damaged curly hair, I definitely recommend trying this product! (By the way, my hair is now waist length after a year of discovering Aphogee. Ugh! I could cry)
2. Elizavecca Collagen Ceramide Protein Treatment
If you love to dye your hair and do all sorts of styles that require tons of heat, this collagen treatment will really prevent your hair from getting fried and damaged. The collagen coating will make your hair smooth and silky, which is perfect for preventing breakage when it’s time to detangle your hair. What I love even more is that it also contains herbal extract to soothe your scalp and make your hair extra soft!
3. TGIN Miracle Repair
Even though I’ve never tested this product myself, I heard a lot of great things about it on Youtube and other review blogs. The brand is known for creating high-quality natural-hair friendly products, and that’s why I’m sure this protein treatment by TGIN is pretty awesome too.
It contains all-natural ingredients that not only moisturize your scalp, but also help strengthen each strand of your hair and restore the protein. Considering how much use you’ll be able to get out of this 12oz container, this is definitely one of the most affordable Olaplex dupes on this list.
4. Extremely Damaged Hair Repair
Omg, so many people are raving about this product. Some say that it’s considered a staple in their hair care routine, while some others even say that it’s “simply magical”!
For the price of only 9 dollars, the amazing reviews that it’s been able to generate are honestly quite impressive. Stop getting Starbucks coffee for two days and use the money you save to test out this “Extremely damaged hair repair” for yourself, lol! Even if it doesn’t work for you, at least you’ll be one product closer to finding the miracle product you need!
5. Fortifying Protein Hair Mask
If you love to swim and your hair has been suffering from the harsh water in swimming pools, I think you should definitely give this Fortifying Protein Hair Mask a try. It is infused with nourishing argan oil and macadamia oil to give your hair the moisturization and shine that it’s been craving. Moreover, the hydrolyzed wheat protein that it contains will also help give your hair that extra boost of body, strength, and volume it needs!

6. Moroccanoil Restorative Hair Mask
I love the Moroccanoil brand because their products are always so nourishing for the hair and smell absolutely AMAZING! I bought my mom their hair oil a while ago and she’s still using it every day. So definitely give this protein treatment mask a try. Especially if your hair is desperately craving moisture and shine!
7. Keratin Hair Mask
Lots of people swear by keratin treatments and have it done to their hair regularly at the salon. What if you can save the hassle of driving to the salon and just do it in the comfort of your own home?
This Keratin Hair Mask Deep Conditioner will give you stunning and silky hair within a matter of minutes, leaving it softer and more manageable than before. If you’ve been struggling with hair thinning, breakage, and dull hair for a while now, I think this just might be the miracle product you need.
8. Advanced Clinicals Collagen Hair Treatment
Over-processing your hair with chemicals can quite literally destroy your hair and make it as dry as the Sahara desert. If you’re tired of dealing with frizzy and impossible-to-manage hair, and are always on the verge of tears when detangling your hair, it’s time to make a change!
All it takes to revive your hair is to find a protein treatment that works for you. This Advanced Clinicals Collagen Hair Treatment is known for reviving hair from the dead and bringing it back to life. I know, it sounds pretty amazing doesn’t it? What’s even more amazing about this product is that it also contains antioxidant-rich plant caviar that hinders graying and hair loss. How freaking cool!
9. CHI Silk Infusion
I see so many of my curly girls on Youtube talking about this CHI Silk Infusion! If you’ve never heard of the CHI brand, they’re known for extremely high-quality hair straighteners and other related products such as heat protectants.
If you love that bone-straight silk-press look, you definitely want to use this leave-in treatment every time before you flat iron your hair. It is enriched with natural silk, wheat, and soy proteins that will leave your hair super shiny, bouncy, and soft. Most importantly, it’ll protect your hair from unnecessary heat damage! (That’s literally every curly girl’s worst nightmare)
What’s a good dupe for Olaplex?
Olaplex uses a special patented ingredient called ‘bis-aminopropyl diglycol dimaleate’ which is a bond multiplier that helps restore your hair to life. Even though you won’t be able to find the same ingredients in the Olaplex dupes listed above, they are still pretty freaking amazing and can quite literally transform your hair.
So what are good dupes for Olaplex? There really is no definite answer since everyone’s hair is so different. For me, the best one is the Aphogee protein treatment , but for someone else, it might not work. So definitely go and try out some of the products listed in this post and find out for yourself : )
