I bleach my dark brown Asian black hair blonde every 6-8 weeks, so when I first heard stylists at the salon raving about K18, I was instantly intrigued. And it turns out people all over the world love it too, because when I first tried to buy it, it was sold out at Sephora. I ended up getting a mini bottle and was amazed at how soft my hair was. Seriously. I was touching it all day and even my boyfriend agreed that my hair was noticeably silkier. Before trying K18, I was a big Olaplex user. I still stick…

While this would make most parents’ hair stand on end, Urban’s likely understood his need to start his career as early as possible. He was already playing in a band which was…
