If you color or lighten your hair, our Bond Builder and Color Lock treatments are the hair insurance you need for longer-lasting results and stronger, healthier hair. Reegan is telling us more about them both.
Color Lock
Color Lock helps to protect your color from fading for up to 22 washes. It can also add tons of shine to your hair while protecting it from UVA and UVB rays! It's a treatment we blow-dry into your hair and can be used with any color service.
Reegan especially recommends it for:
-Created Reds: Reds are notorious for fading easily due to environmental factors, such as hot water and sun exposure. Color Lock helps seal in the color, keeping our reds (and also fashion colors) vibrant for longer.
-Color Changes: When we change the color of our hair, the new color can be susceptible to fading into the older color underneath. Color Lock reduces this risk by locking in that new look and helping your hair hold onto it.
-Vacation Prep: Whether or not your hair has gone through a coloring service, sun protection is a must! Because Color Lock shields against both UVA and UVB rays, adding it as a treatment before setting off on your next adventure will ensure your hair is sun-ready.
Bond Builder
Bond Builder is a two-step protectant we use during a color service to help preserve the elasticity, shine, integrity, and longevity of your hair. Step one is applied with your hair color or lightener and works to penetrate and strengthen your hair from within, therefore preventing breakage. Step two, which is applied after rinsing, reinforces and supports the bonds (strength) in your hair, leaving it feeling nourished and healthier.
Reegan especially recommends it for:
-Fine or compromised hair: Both fine and compromised hair are already more susceptible to breakage, so we want to maintain integrity as much as we can. Adding Bond Builder is a great way to support and protect it through the coloring process.
-Curly hair: Curl patterns can be disrupted by chemical services, causing them to lose their shape. Bond Builder helps stave this off, making sure your curls stay nourished and defined.
-Blonding: Lightening hair is notoriously hard on it, so we really want to stay mindful of its overall strength and health. Bond Builder essentially acts like an insurance for that, creating a kinder blonding experience for our hair. (If you really want to double down on that, add on Color Lock as well!)
