Bond Builders Simplified
What are Bond Builders and Which Range is Right for You?
What do Bond Builders Do?
Protein-rich high performance bond builders work to repair the structure hair that has been damaged, re-linking and rebuilding bonds within the hair shaft. As the science and innovation has developed, bond building ranges have expanded to cover all types of damage from light damage and prevention to extreme damage, some reversing up to 2 years of damage and penetrating the hair at a molecular level. The answer to which bond builder to choose is based on your hair type, your budget, your haircare routine and what level of damage your hair has.
What are Bonds?
Every strand of hair contains bonds which make up the structure of the hair. Hair with strong, linked bonds is healthy, shiny and strong. When bonds are broken through heat, over processing, wet styling or other factors this results in what we see as symptoms of damage.
- Brittle, split ends and breakage prone
- Frizzy
- Dull and lifeless
- Dryness
- Uneven colour results
