Boots shoppers are ditching their expensive hair treatments such as Olaplex for £12 L’Oréal Paris Elvive Bond Repair and it’s no wonder. The Bond Repair range has been called “life-changing” by shoppers who have found the products transform their damaged hair into “healthy, soft hair” that has a great “bounce”.
Having silky, luscious locks can take hard work and some serious money. However when I grabbed this £12 shampoo off the shelf at Boots, I never thought it would be as good as my professionally recommended salon standard one that’s nearly double the price - but I was wrong.

My hair is highlighted every 6-8 weeks and making sure it doesn’t get totally damaged in the process means I often have to fork out a tonne on hair upkeep. For me, Redken - the leading professional salon hair care brand, has always been my go to.
With Redken, I often found myself spending £20 for just the shampoo. I think it’s absolutely brilliant and is well worth the money, however, when I started using L’Oréal Paris Elvive Bond Repair Shampoo I found I was getting the same results - and saving money in the meantime.
The whole range has received glowing reviews online on Boots’ website, and there's a 3 for 2 offer at the moment. I’ve been using products from the Bond Repair range for months now, and I always get praise from my hairdresser for the excellent condition my hair is in.
The L’Oréal Paris Elvive Bond Repair Shampoo is sulphate free and lathers well, meaning a little goes a long way.
The products have almost a full five star rating on Boots website and hundreds of reviews from happy customers who say the Bond Repair range has totally transformed their hair.
Charlo wrote: “I bought the pre-shampoo , shampoo and conditioner 4 days ago, and have used it every night… can’t believe the difference in my hair, I have very fine hair and it’s made it feel renewed and gives it bounce - would 10/10 recommend it is just like if not better than Olaplex.”
Jane C said: “After just one use my hair felt smoother and more manageable. Nice smell and lathers well.”
Jackie wrote: “I started using this product about 10 days ago and I cannot believe how healthy and soft my hair is. My hair is naturally curly and frizzy and, as soon as the humidity reaches 50%, it usually goes crazy.
“After I started using these products, my hair is healthy, soft, and manageable. It is life-changing as I do not need to spend so much time styling it. Thank you L'Oréal ELVIVE for creating these products”
Kay said: “Got this to try after using Olaplex products for so long. It's way expensive. This seems to be working great. Not heavy. But keeps hair nice and soft. Great aroma and love the no hassle bottles. Perfect combo.”
L’Oréal Paris Elvive Bond Repair Shampoo and Conditioner Bundle is also available for £11.99 on Look Fantastic.
Revolution’s Haircare Plex 3 Bond Restore Treatment has also been praised as a “great alternative to Olaplex and costs less.” It’s currently on sale at Look Fantastic for £5.
