What is a bond-repair treatment?

Bond-repair treatments are designed to help strengthen hair that's been weakened by coloring, bleaching, heat styling, or chemical processing.

Hair gets most of its strength from internal bonds within its keratin structure. Over time, these bonds can become damaged, leaving hair more prone to breakage, roughness, and frizz.

Unlike traditional conditioners, which primarily smooth the hair's surface, bond-repair treatments work within the hair fiber to help reinforce weakened areas and improve overall strength and resilience. They're especially beneficial for color-treated, chemically processed, or frequently heat-styled hair.

When used regularly, bond-repair treatments can help hair feel stronger, smoother, and more resistant to future breakage.
