Designed to repair damaged, over-processed, bleached, heat-damaged, and color-treated hair, this 12 fl oz (355mL) conditioner rebuilds broken hair bonds from within, seals the cuticle layer, and restores smoothness, elasticity, and manageability after every wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eActive Ingredients and Hair Repair Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolyzed Keratin\u003c\/strong\u003e — Keratin is the primary structural protein of the hair shaft, comprising approximately 95% of hair's composition. Hydrolyzed Keratin is broken down into low-molecular-weight peptides that penetrate the hair cortex, fill gaps in damaged cuticles caused by chemical processing, heat styling, or mechanical stress, and restore tensile strength and elasticity to weakened strands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolyzed Silk (Silk Amino Acids)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Derived from silk fibroin; silk amino acids (primarily serine, glycine, and alanine) adsorb onto the hair surface and interior, improving moisture retention, adding natural shine, reducing static, and creating a smooth, silky texture without weighing hair down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant-Derived Bonding Agents\u003c\/strong\u003e — Natural bonding technology that targets and reinforces broken disulfide bonds in the hair shaft — the primary structural bonds damaged by bleaching, perming, and chemical relaxing.

A bonding conditioner goes further by targeting broken disulfide bonds inside the hair shaft — the structural bonds damaged by bleaching and chemical processing — and actively rebuilding them. This results in stronger, more resilient hair over time, not just temporary surface smoothness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow often should I use it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is gentle enough for daily use as a regular conditioner.
