Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Treatment

Why You'll Love It

Think of Redken’s Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Treatment (part of the Acidic Bonding Concentrate collection) as the first step to correcting hair damage inside and out. Used as a pre-treatment prior to shampooing or a pick-me-up mask when hair is dire need, this highly reparative rinse-off formula works within your hair to strengthen hair bonds weakened by stressors like hair color, lightening, aggressive brushing, daily heat-styling, and more, while also smoothing and conditioning your hair’s cuticle for a silkier, healthier appearance—and does all of this in as little as 5 to 10 minutes!

This rinse-off Intensive Treatment’s two main ingredients, Bonding Care Complex and 14% citric acid—the highest level in the Collection—work synergistically to repair and condition hair damage from the inside out. The higher concentration of citric acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid, and Bonding Care Complex means more intensive, immediate results; hair is left 90% more conditioned, 14 times smoother, and two times stronger after just one use! Because the formula is better able to penetrate the hair’s surface, damage is treated at the source; the Bonding Care Complex reinforces hair’s weakened bonds to help damaged hair become more resilient against future breakage—users saw a 63% reduction in breakage when they used this Intensive Treatment as part of the Acidic Bonding Concentrate system!
