Does this product work on repairing disulfide hair bonds?
- Asked by Lisa
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Pre-Shampoo Treatment for Damaged Hair. Yes, absolutely! Our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Pre-Shampoo Treatment is specifically formulated with a high concentration of our Bonding Care Complex, which is designed to target and help repair weakened disulfide bonds within the hair. These disulfide bonds are crucial for the hair's strength and structure, and they can be broken by chemical processes like coloring, bleaching, and perming, as well as heat styling and environmental stressors. Our pre-shampoo treatment works to reinforce these bonds, leading to stronger, healthier-looking hair. It's an intensive first step in repairing and strengthening damaged hair from the inside out!Was this answer helpful to you

Not a fan!!
I received this product in exchange for my review. I did not like this product since it did not work as it claimed it would. My hair is very dry and very damaged. The product does not say how much to use, do you do a dime size amount? Do you paint it on like hair dye (which got me into the hair ...

I really wanted to like this, and I followed all the instructions given of washing (clarifying) applying this and washing and conditioning. Well, I have to say for my natural silvers, my hair felt like straw while rinsing, and was drier than normal upon styling.

I see no difference when using this product, don't get the hype at all
Returned!
Despite high hopes based on influencer recommendations, this Redken pre-shampoo treatment was a major disappointment. I was promised a complete transformation after just one use, but experienced the opposite effect. My hair was actually in much better condition BEFORE using this product. I had only slightly dry ends, but overall my hair was healthy and manageable. However, after following the instructions precisely, this treatment left my hair extremely dry and unmanageable - even after applying conditioner and leave-in products afterward. Blow-drying became nearly impossible as my hair would break when using a round brush. Even worse, after completing my blowout, my hair would get increasingly frizzy and puffy throughout the day, refusing to hold any style. The product was so problematic that I had to wash my hair the very next day, completely disrupting my usual three-day washing routine. I gave the product a second chance, but unfortunately experienced the same negative results both times. Given the premium price point and small bottle size, I cannot recommend this product. I should have trusted my gut and continued using the products that were already working well for me. I'm happy with my regular hair care routine and regret being swayed to try something new. Lesson learned: I'll be more skeptical of influencer recommendations in the future and rely on my own research instead.
I would highly recommend this product

This entire line has become my favorite beauty product. I have fine, thinning, hair and this system helped strengthen, minimize split ends, added shine, and made my hair feel better. My hair no longer snaps when I brush it and I'm excited to see it grow.
I love this product.

This product is the best I've ever used. My hair stopped breaking. It's stronger and healthier in the first use.
