All About OLAPLEX Nº.4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo

Is your hair feeling a little bogged down? A non-stripping clarifying shampoo is what you need to remove buildup that causes hard-to-manage, dull, and damaged hair. OLAPLEX® Nº.4C Bond Maintenance® Clarifying Shampoo is here to clear the way for lighter, cleaner hair. Find out how using this shampoo tackles buildup and how to incorporate it into your hair routine.


How OLAPLEX Nº.4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo Works

What is a clarifying shampoo, and what does it do? A clarifying shampoo is a type of shampoo that’s formulated to remove buildup in your hair. Advanced broad-spectrum clarifying shampoos like Nº.4C remove more than just hard water minerals, buildup, and oil. This surface-level deep cleansing shampoo uses surfactants and clarifiers to pull impurities out of your hair like heavy metals, chlorine, and pollutants. Typical clarifying shampoos can strip the hair, leaving it feeling straw-like, rough, and dry. Nº.4C is the opposite: it’s color-safe and non-stripping, giving you soft, shiny hair with every wash.


What is Buildup?

If your hair still looks frizzy, limp, dull, greasy, and just plain unmanageable, it may be because you have buildup. Buildup occurs in multiple ways, including what’s in your water, the surrounding air, and hair products. If buildup stays in the hair, it can lead to damage like split ends, breakage, and frizz. Nº.4C is the missing link to your OLAPLEX routine to remove buildup and bring back life to hair.


How to Use OLAPLEX Nº.4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo

Use Nº.4C weekly for surface level deep-cleansing to remove impurities that weigh hair down and cause damage:

  1. Apply Nº.4C to wet hair, concentrating on your scalp, then working through to the ends.
  2. Lather fully and leave for up to five minutes.
  3. Rinse well, and continue with your haircare routine, following with Nº.5 Bond Maintenance® Conditioner, N°.8 Bond Intense Moisture Mask, or an OLAPLEX treatment.

Pro tip: Use Nº.4C to remove buildup before repairing broken bonds with the Nº.0 Intensive Bond Building Treatment and Nº.3 Hair Perfector® combination.


Frequently Asked Questions

Let’s clarify some of your Nº.4C questions (pun fully intended):

How Often Should You Use Clarifying Shampoo?

Use Nº.4C once every one to two weeks or as needed.


Can You Use Clarifying Shampoo after Using OLAPLEX Nº.3 Hair Perfector?

Yes, you can use a Nº.3 Hair Perfector™ before or after washing with Nº.4C, but it’s recommended that you clarify before bond building to remove buildup on the hair.


Is OLAPLEX Nº.4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo Color-Safe?

Yes, OLAPLEX Nº.4C Clarifying Shampoo is color-safe. It’s formulated to cleanse hair thoroughly without stripping or fading color-treated hair.
