I’m a beauty writer and I’ve found a £24 Olaplex dupe that works while you sleep

Giving Olaplex vibes, the mask is used on dry hair, and overnight as opposed to pre-wash and we’re obsessed – it’s so easy to use.
Available from Sephora and priced at £24, Percy & Reed’s I Need A Hero!, is packed with hair-nourishing proteins without feeling heavy.
To use this mask, you simply apply it to dry hair before bed and wait a few minutes, and it will have been completely absorbed into the hair (no messy pillows here!).
I Need A Hero! then works overnight to nourish, condition and moisturise frazzled strands overnight, leaving you with softer, sleeker and all-round swishier hair when you wake up.
In the morning, shampoo as normal – and your hair will be in such great shape that there’ll even be no need to use conditioner.
The Percy & Reed brand was founded by celebrity hairdressers Paul Percival and Adam Reed, so the pair clearly knows a thing or two about what makes great hair.
The treatment is available to buy from lots of high street stores including Sephora, John Lewis, Marks & Spencer and Amazon, with prices varying slightly between retailers.
And it has been a hit with shoppers across the board, clocking up hundreds of five-star reviews across the various retailer websites.

“I had badly damaged hair and although I’ve only used the product twice, I can see a difference. Well worth the money,” one happy John Lewis customer said.
“Best product I’ve ever tried for getting rid of dry ends and giving a great shine to my hair and very easy to use!” wrote an M&S shopper.
“Absolutely love this! Smells amazing and can look forward to soft and shiny hair after washing it out. The lovely smells last for at least two days too,” one person wrote in their Amazon review, referring to Percy & Reed’s famously well-fragranced products.
There are also a few shoppers comparing it to Olaplex, so if you like the results of Olaplex products but want something that’s a little quicker and easier (and cheaper) to use, Percy & Reed’s Overnight Mask is a great alternative.
Another great Olaplex dupe that’s caught our eye recently is the L’Oréal Bond Repair range – and we’ve found out how you can currently get your hands on it for half price.
