Redken Bond Dupe - L’Oreal Bond Repair

Currently using this as I do love Redken but currently cannot afford the price of Redken. Makes my hair smooth and adds moisture back along with strength without making my hair stiff.

If your hair is moisturized and silky but lacks form and definition, this is what I was recommended by my hair stylist. Please remember to switch to hydrating products as needed to keep your hair soft and silky!

Redken COLOR GLOSS Shampoo + Conditioner

This is the Shampoo and Conditioner I use interchangeably with the L’Oreal Bond Repair Shampoo and Conditioner. I love how soft it leaves my hair and how long my color lasts using it.

Besides using it for the moisture and extension of my color, I also really love the way it smells and the texture of it compared to other products in the same price bracket.

Hydration

Bond Repair is great for strength. However, hair is always a balance. If your hair is stiff, it needs moisture. If it feels like it’s limp but soft, go for strengthening products above.

I keep this in the shower with my shampoo and conditioner. When hair feels stiff and needs a boost in moisture I add this on after conditioner (as the instructions say to do on the back).

One of my friends had this in their to-go bag before a show. It was a go-to for the girls backstage. It added extra shine to our hair. A little goes a long way.

On the go, straight out of the shower, this is my favorite curl cream. I like my waves to look soft and tousled. Air drying and low maintenance hair are my favorite.
