- Acidic Bonding Concentrate Conditioner – For Damaged Hair

One of the best shampoos I’ve ever used! I have fine, color-treated, and damaged hair, and this shampoo has made a noticeable difference. It cleans my scalp really well without leaving my hair feeling dry or stripped. After washing, my hair feels stronger, softer, and much smoother. I’ve also noticed less breakage and frizz, and my hair looks shinier and healthier overall. A little product goes a long way, so the bottle lasts longer than I expected. The scent is fresh and pleasant without being overpowering. I use it together with the matching conditioner, and the results are even better. My hair is easier to brush, feels more hydrated, and looks like I just left the salon. If your hair is damaged from coloring, bleaching, or heat styling, I highly recommend giving this shampoo a try. I will definitely be buying it again!

(This is a copy and paste from previous review because it’s a regimen of three of these products {this being one} to see you hair shinier than you have probably seen since childhood or have only seen on people/models on TV, regardless this is one of the 3 things I use to get awesome shiny, soft and stronger hair) SO… Living in the country, not the city, means well water and some places no water softener. Unfortunately, this leaves hair brassy, dull, frizzy & what I call why bother hair!!. I used the complete line starting with the 1st one, when working this regimen, start with ACIDIC BONDING CONCENTRATE INTENSIVE TREATMENT (leave in hair for 5 mins in the shower) then wash hair with the ACIDIC BONDING CONCENTRATE SHAMPOO, next use the ACIDIC BONDING CONCENTRATE CONDITIONER. THATS IT, THATS ALL, NOTHING ELSE NEEDED IN HAIR AFTER THAT! No need for leave in conditioner on most hair. I personally straighten my hair after this washing hair regimen. The first time I used this, I couldn’t believe I was looking in the mirror at my hair. For real, I was checking myself out all day, next day too! My hair looked shinier than whenever I got out of the salon. It’s CRAZY INCREDIBLE, the shininess was outstanding & I never thought I would ever see my hair shine like it does with this, like when I was growing up in the city! If they gave all girls with dull hair a sample of this regimen, DARN their sales would sky rocket. It’s for real pricy tho, but you don’t need to use this daily, use once a week or for some use once every 2 weeks, you will be astounded at the very noticeable results on your very first try. I know I sound like I’m trying to sell this stuff, which I’m not, it’s just that I have tried toooo toooo many products & asked so many different hair stylist about what I could do to get that shine back and they always had only 1 or 2 products that they carried which I suppose they were obligated to try and sell. Anyway, I really felt like my shine was a thing of the past. Now, I just feel obligated to spread the word to all but especially to those of us that live in the country & who are always on the hunt, always trying tons of different products, (which become a waste) being able to just look in the mirror once again & see shiny hair, & feel damn good @ both the look & the feel of healthy shiny and envious hair, giving us a lil pep in our step. LMBO @ myself, I do sound like a sales person but I’m not. This is strictly a late, but massively honest review, I don’t work for anyone, I don’t get anything for free & I don’t even get free samples, tho honestly, I totally wish I did!!!

I am 70 years old and have colored my hair every 3-4 weeks for 25 years. As a result my hair had become quite dry and brittle. I thought I would give this a try and am so glad I did! I love it! After using a dime sized amount 4 days in a row my hair looks so much healthier. It is shiny and feels soft and silky. I highly recommend this product.

I am giving the Redken Bonding Conditioner a five-star rating, not only for its impressive claims but for the results it delivers. While its formula may not feel extraordinarily hydrating during the shower routine, it's what happens after the rinse that truly amazed me. This conditioner is clearly designed with strength repair in mind, a feature that instantly appealed to me as someone with damaged hair. The product description does justice to this aspect. It's an all-in-one formula that caters to all types of damaged hair, providing ultimate strength repair and intense conditioning. It's also sulfate-free and vegan, which is a big plus for anyone who is conscious about the ingredients in their hair care products. What I particularly love about this Redken conditioner is that it reinforces weakened bonds in your hair, and the results are immediately visible. My hair is not just soft but super soft after using it, and I've noticed a significant improvement in its texture. I also found that the product offers hair color fade protection, a bonus for those who color their hair regularly. The smell of the conditioner is pleasant, and the softness it imparts to the hair lasts long, making it worth the investment. I understand that some customers may find the value questionable, but in my experience, the noticeable change in the health of my hair makes it worth every penny. If you're considering buying this product, I'd say go for it. It might not feel like the most hydrating conditioner in the shower, but the results post-rinse are nothing short of miraculous. Your hair will thank you!

Great product. Use with product line one star off due to price for small bottle.

Nice conditioner - seals in the hair and restores hair, makes it shine like glass. I use it once or twice a week with the shampoo and leave in conditioner for a sleek look.

UPDATE AFTER TWO YEARS OF USE: I ultimately found this line at a reasonable price, and had been happily using it for over two years. While I hadn't noticed any kind of significant benefits from using this line, it did make my hair feel nice and appear healthier. Fast forward to now, and suddenly in January 2024, this entire line is leaving my hair greasy. Not just greasy, but GREEEAAASYYY - it will NOT rinse out in the shower regardless of how long or vigorously I rinse my hair. It's so bad that it's gross. It makes zero sense as I've been using this daily for years without any issue, but now, out of nowhere: it's turned on me. I have to use a strong clarifying shampoo to remove the greasy, oily residue this is leaving behind. (I had been attempting to rotate products to see if I could identify a single product in the line that was the culprit, but it seems they're all doing it.) And I'm not alone - other women on the social medial platform that starts with Red*** are having the exact same issue. So, what gives, Redken? I have a small but pricey stockpile of this product line that I absolutely cannot use unless I want to go put in public looking like I haven't washed my hair in six + months. HARD PASS! ### My stylist turned me on to this shampoo and conditioner line by accident. I was able to purchase my first bottle of each (and the leave-in cream) at half the cost through another channel. My fine (highlighted) hair that's prone to breakage absolutely seems to love this product line. The full retail cost is incredibly prohibitive, even though the shampoo lasts me 2-3 times as long as a bottle of the conditioner (and one bottle of the conditioner lasts me about a month). Unfortunately, my hair soaks the conditioner in, so it's not like it's lasting me long enough to justify the full retail cost. Having said that, I do feel like the cost is fair if you're able to purchase it at a discounted rate. I'd definitely do some research to investigate other channels to purchase at a more economical price. I'm very picky about scents, and really had to work hard to not hate the smell of the Redken Extreme line (which is what I'd used prior to this). The Acidic Bonding line has a very gender neutral scent: it's on the lighter side, though it definitely is scented, but it fades quickly, so you don't walk around smelling like your shampoo and conditioner all day. That's a plus for me, but I don't LOVE the scent. I'd call it tolerable. Does this line do what it promises? It does, though it can get heavy on fine hair. I've tested it to see if I can skip a few days and use other product lines in between, just to save on cost. I'm pretty certain that once you've washed with something else, that's it - and the "glue" that's bonding your split ends and frayed strands is gone until you've used this for another week straight to replace it all again. A little does go a long way, but be warned if you have porous hair that loves conditioner: you'll still use less than you're used to using with other product lines, but you'll definitely go through this quicker than the shampoo. On the flip side, while I'm on my first bottle of shampoo, and third or fourth bottle of conditioner, I'm not even halfway through my first tube of the leave-in product. That makes it the most economical purchase in the line, IMO, and the one thing that I can totally justify purchasing at full retail since it's likely to last me 3-4 months. Overall, I really do like this product line, and I would be a faithful, dedicated, every-day-no-matter-what user if only the price were more reasonable. At $30 a bottle for a shampoo and conditioner, this is a luxury purchase purchase for me regardless of how much I like it, so I'm sort of forced to try to extend my time between purchases and intersperse it with other product lines - unless I can purchase in bulk at a more reasonable price.

When used (as directed) it conditions my colored and slightly dry hair about as well as most decent conditioners. Nothing special here except the name and the AHA on the ingredient list. The smell is oddly strong and I don't like having to worry about my eyes so much, so I'm not restocking this one.

Meu cabelo amou! Só me arrependo de não ter comprado antes. Meu cabelo estava sempre embaraçado e agora meu cabelo está muito bonito e soltinho. Além de srr muito prático, só uns minutinhos e enxaguar.

vraiment une gamme merveilleuse pour les filles qui ont les cheveux ultra decolorés , j'utilise la gamme apres mon soin botox de ma coiffeuse pour l'entretenir et le faire durer plus longtemps , meme plus besoin de faire le brushing, les cheveux restent lisses pendant des mois, foncez les filles ça vaut vraiment le coup, on le sent a la première utilisation déjà et les effets sont cumulatifs.

Ce soin est excellent. Je l utilise après le shampooing en laissant poser qques minutes. De suite le cheveu est doux, démêlé, souple et pas du tout alourdi. Un vrai bonheur. Je recommande fortement ce produit pour les cheveux secs et fins que l on veut soigner sans les alourdir. Ne rend pas le cheveux poisseux, mais léger, lisse et brillant !!!!!

My hair felt like straw after bleaching. I tried many expensive well known products but nothing worked. Decided to try this and so happy I did. The result is amazing. After just one use, my hair feels really soft and is shiny and frizz free. It's also economical as a little goes a long way. Highly recommend

Il Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate è un balsamo che mantiene davvero le promesse: già dalle prime applicazioni si sente una differenza notevole nella morbidezza e nella pettinabilità dei capelli. È pensato per i capelli danneggiati, e si vede: ricostruisce e nutre in profondità, lasciando le lunghezze più forti, setose e luminose. La formula è ricca di acido citrico e agenti riparatori che lavorano sui legami interni del capello, aiutando a contrastare i danni causati da trattamenti chimici, calore e stress quotidiano. Dopo il risciacquo, i capelli risultano morbidi ma non appesantiti, e il profumo fresco e pulito rende l’esperienza ancora più piacevole. Un altro punto forte è la versatilità: funziona su tutti i tipi di capelli, dai sottili ai grossi, lisci o mossi. Nel mio caso, ha domato anche le punte secche e ribelli, rendendole visibilmente più sane. Pro: • Ammorbidisce e ripara i capelli già dal primo utilizzo. • Non appesantisce, anche su capelli sottili. • Profumo gradevole e delicato. • Aiuta a ridurre la rottura e a migliorare l’aspetto delle punte danneggiate. • Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo per un prodotto professionale. Contro: • Il formato da 300 ml non è enorme: con capelli lunghi può finire in fretta. • Meglio non eccedere con la quantità, altrimenti può risultare troppo ricco. • Per capelli molto danneggiati, dà il meglio se usato insieme agli altri prodotti della linea (shampoo e trattamento leave-in). In sintesi: il balsamo ABC di Redken è un alleato potente per restituire forza e bellezza ai capelli stressati. Non fa miracoli in una sola volta, ma con costanza trasforma la chioma rendendola più sana, lucida e gestibile. Un prodotto professionale che vale ogni goccia. ✨💆‍♀️
