Use as a complete system with Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo and Conditioner. A little goes a long way! This product is lightweight but creamy in consistency and will coat your hair with less product than your average treatment. We recommend you start with a dime size amount and increase from there based on your hair type. Apply to clean, damp hair. Leave in. Do not rinse. Style as usual. Avoid contact with eyes

- Q
How often can i hse this product? Is there a limit?
- Asked by Ali
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHI there! Thank you for reaching out about our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In Treatment for Hair Repair. Excellent question! The Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In Treatment is designed for daily use, or whenever you wash and style your hair. There is no "limit" to how often you can apply it, as it is a highly concentrated, yet weightless formula that works to repair and protect your hair throughout the day. It’s a perfect step to include in your routine to ensure your hair stays nourished and protected against heat styling and humidity. However, since a little goes a long way, we recommend starting with a small amount and adjusting as needed based on your hair's length and thickness to maintain that soft, weightless finish.Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
Hi, can I use redken acidic bonding concentrate and living proof no frizz oil ?
- Asked by Ash
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In Treatment for Hair Repair. That is an excellent question! The short answer is yes, you can absolutely use the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate (ABC) Leave-In Treatment and the Living Proof No Frizz Oil together. In fact, they make a powerful duo for achieving a smooth, high-shine finish. Here is the best way to layer them for a professional "pop" of results: Foundation (Damp Hair): Apply the Redken ABC Leave-In first to clean, damp hair. This is your "bonding" step—it works internally to repair weakened bonds, provides 450°F heat protection, and balances your hair's pH. Sealing (Damp or Dry Hair): Follow with the Living Proof No Frizz Oil. You can apply a small amount to damp hair over the ABC treatment to lock in moisture, or use it on dry hair after styling to smooth down any remaining flyaways and add a boost of shine. Why they work well together: The Redken ABC focuses on repair and strength, while the Living Proof Oil focuses on blocking humidity and adding surface smoothness. By using both, you are getting the internal structural benefits from Redken and the external frizz-protection from Living Proof. Just remember to start with a small amount of each, especially if you have finer hair, to ensure your style stays lightweight and bouncy!Was this answer helpful to you
- Q
When does this one, if ever, going on sale? I thought shampoo and conditioners (related, Acidic Bonding) in the past years were the same as the other one on sale in the past. (All Soft, and others…)
- Asked by Kaitlin
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHi there! Thank you for reaching out about our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In Treatment for Hair Repair. While we cannot disclose specific future dates for sales, here is some helpful context regarding how the ABC line is treated compared to ranges like All Soft: Retailer Participation: Sales are often determined by our authorized retail partners (such as Ulta, Sephora, or professional salons). While classic lines like All Soft or Extreme are frequently part of "Jumbo" or "Liter" sales, the Acidic Bonding Concentrate line—being our most advanced, high-performance bonding technology—is sometimes included in different promotional tiers. Value Sets: One of the best ways to get the Leave-In Treatment at a better price point is to look for Value Sets or Holiday Bundles. These kits often include a full-size Leave-In along with the Shampoo and Conditioner for a significant overall saving compared to buying them individually. Newsletter Perks: We highly recommend signing up for the Redken newsletter or rewards programs at your favorite professional beauty retailer. They often provide early access to "Friends & Family" events where the entire brand, including the ABC range, may be discounted. Our Acidic Bonding Concentrate formula is highly concentrated, so a little bit of the Leave-In goes a long way—providing 56% less breakage and heat protection up to 450°F!Was this answer helpful to you

- Q
Can this be applied on freshly washed and conditioned dry hair or it has to he damp?
- Asked by Sweetness
- Official Answer By Redken - BEHi there! We appreciate your interest in our Acidic Bonding Concentrate Leave-In Treatment for Hair Repair. We recommend to apply to clean, damp hair. Leave in.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
Let me start by saying I am not a Redken hater by any means. I use their All Soft S&C religiously. I went out of my way to purchase more of it because there was a promotion going on where I could get samples of the whole acidic bonding line after spending a certain amount. I was so excited to try th...

This product offers outstanding and immediate results! It's a leave-in style…so I use about a penny size and distribute through the mud and ends of my hair.
It does the job
Hair Type Wavy Hair
My hair is bleached processed & I had been feeling it very gummy & elasticy i want to say but only when wet (out the shower) , point is it was feeling very damaged when i would get out a wash so i went & tried this product & i want to say it actually worked on my hair… it made it feel it softer, helped with detanglement & its not heavy weight at all oh & it made the gummy feeling go away but not all fully after the first try, give it till the 2nd try to judge it i guess to get your hair used to it. Also, obviously use your hair oil with or your other favorite product so it can give it the push you want, i used the amika the wizard(orange spray bottle) think is called & its a amazing mix !!
