Why You Need Bond-Building Hair Treatments: Reasons And Options

Written by Lopa K9th Feb 2023

Hair can be damaged for several reasons from careless use of heat styling to the constant colouring of your hair. When this happens, your hair can lose the natural proteins that are needed to keep your strands smooth and strong. But there are several ways to reverse this damage. Bond-building is one such way on how to strengthen hair. Your hair is made up of follicles, bonds and protein cells that are responsible for its shape and health. When damaged, bond-building can restore them.

Why You Need Bond-Building Hair Treatments: The Basics

Before we get into how you can get a bond-building hair treatment, let’s take a look at what it is and how to strengthen your hair with this process. Our hair strands consist of a bunch of elements like amino acids, proteins and bond cells. Amino acids make up proteins and proteins in turn make up bonds. These bonds and how they are formed are responsible for your hair’s shape i.e., straight, wavy, curly or a combination. When your hair is damaged for whatever reason, these bonds can break as well leading to loss of hair shape, fraying of cuticles and frizz. It can also weaken the hair and make it susceptible to breakage. And if natural home remedies and hair masks aren’t bringing about much results, you may need some added reinforcement. This is where a bond-building hair treatment comes in.

Top Reasons Why You Need Bond-Building Hair Treatments

1. They repair from within

When your hair cells are damaged, you need a cure that can work from within to fix them. Simply straightening your hair when it is all frizzy or using a hair-styling serum is not enough as they are only temporary solutions. That is where bond-building hair treatments come in. They use natural proteins like keratin or bond-repairing technology to strengthen your hair from within.

2. Smoothens frizz and flyaways

Sometimes, the reason for all the frizz and flyaways is that your hair strands are frayed. A bond-repairing treatment strengthens the bonds which in turn smoothens the frayed cuticles and strands. So, along with getting stronger and healthier hair, say hello to a visually stunning mane devoid of frizz and flyaways.

3. Strengthens the hair

If you want to know how to strengthen your hair, just turn to a bond-building hair treatment. Since it repairs the hair’s natural bonds this leads to your strands getting stronger and thicker. It even helps the hair follicles heal so that the new hair that grows is almost good as new as if the damage never happened in the first place.

4. Immediate effect

Okay, so we are going to tell you the secret that makes repair bonding treatments so popular. It is because it starts working on your hair from the get-go. Beauty experts claim that it starts repairing the bonds 5-10 minutes into applying the treatment. This is also a plus since we don’t have to turn to it frequently as just once or twice a week of bond-repairing is enough.

5. Stops hair from breaking

Bond-building treatments repair the hair so that means no more breakage. Since it repairs the hair bonds and strengthens your strands, there is a less likely chance of it breaking. Some studies suggest that since it can stop your hair from breaking this in turn helps with increasing the density of your hair as well, a concern for those with thin and scanty hair.

Top Bond-Building Hair Treatments to Try

1. Use a bond-repairing shampoo

Sure, we all need a shampoo to keep our scalp clean and our hair grease-free. But what to do when our hair is all damaged and brittle? A shampoo which is supposed to get rid of all the excess oil could just make our hair dryer and damage it further. Well, that’s where a bond-repairing shampoo comes in. Along with the usual bond-building treatment serum, use a shampoo like the TRESemmé Keratin Repair Bond Strength Shampoo. It gives you a salon-like treatment with the help of keratin, a natural protein found in our hair as well as coconut oil and citric acid so that it doesn’t dry out your hair. It also uses a protein bond plex technology to work its magic from within and strengthen the hair bonds every time you use it. All you need to do is first rinse your hair. Then thoroughly apply the shampoo to your scalp and tresses. Massage it in gently and then wash it off.

2. Condition with a keratin conditioner

Like its shampoo counterpart, the TRESemmé Keratin Repair Bond Strength Conditioner not only moisturises your hair but also works on strengthening your strands 20 times more. Stop 98% of your hair from breaking with this hardcore bond-repairing range of haircare products. So, whether your hair is coloured or chemically treated, it can work on bettering your tresses as it also makes use of lactic acid to nourish your hair from within along with keratin. The new bonding formula brings about results in 5 minutes compared to the arduous and usually time-consuming hair treatments. After shampooing, simply take a little bit of the conditioner and apply it evenly from the mid-length to the tips. Let it sit for two to three minutes and then wash it off thoroughly.

FAQs about Why You Need Bond-Building Hair Treatments

Q1. Is bond-building treatment good for hair?

Yes, in fact, it is meant for those with weak and damaged hair. When your hair is damaged, you may have to turn to several methods to try and heal your hair. And one of the ways is to do hair bond-building. Hair bond-building products are specifically made to repair the hair’s broken bonds and heal the shape of your strands.

Q2. How often should I use a hair bond-building treatment?

Depending on the state of your hair, you can get a bond repairing treatment done one to two times a week. Little by little, it repairs the hair’s natural bonds and strengthens your strands. If your hair is extremely frizzy and brittle, there have been users who have done the treatment as frequently as thrice a week to give their hair the added help in healing.

Q3. What is the difference between hair bond and bond-building treatment?

If you have come across beauty gurus warning you of the harsh side effects of hair rebonding/bonding and wondering how bond-building can repair damaged hair, that is because these two treatments are vastly different. A hair bonding or rebonding treatment basically breaks down your hair's natural bonds and creates artificial bonds to make your hair’s shape look naturally straight. Bond-building on the other hand simply aims at healing your natural bonds and strengthening your hair.

And there you have it. Here’s how to strengthen hair with a bond-repairing treatment. All you need to do is be diligent and stick to your haircare routine to get healthy-looking tresses.

When and why we collect “special categories of personal data”

Certain categories of personal data, such as health data, financial data, biometrics, race, ethnicity, religion, health, sexuality or biometric data are classified as “special categories of data” or “Sensitive Personal Information” and benefit from additional protection.

We limit the circumstances where we collect and process these special categories of data.

Unilever sometimes collects data related to your health such as allergies, pregnancy or skin type to send you tailored ads and relevant promotions. Unilever only collects and uses this personal data where you have provided us with your consent for us to do so. In some instances, you may have requested services or products that do not directly involve the collection of any special categories of data, but may imply or suggest your religion, health or other special categories of data.

To illustrate circumstances where Unilever collects and processes special categories of data we have provided the following examples:

Unilever collects expectant mothers’ due dates in its Zwitsal or Baby Dove newsletter sign-up page. It may also place cookies on the sign-up page which capture this information too. This data is then used to create an audience of expectant mothers to receive online advertising from relevant Unilever brands. For more information on Unilever’s profiling activities, please refer to the relevant section;

Similarly, Unilever collects personal data related to consumers’ allergies to provide consumers with ads and promotions for products which are relevant to their needs.

How do we protect children’s privacy?

We understand the importance of taking extra precautions to protect the privacy and safety of children using Unilever products and services.

Most of Unilever’s websites are designed and intended for use by adults. Where one of our websites is intended for use by a younger audience, we will obtain consent from the person with parental responsibility before we collect personal data where it is required by applicable laws and regulations (the age at which consent is necessary varies from Country to Country).

If you are a child under the age where parental consent is required in your Country, you should review the terms of this Privacy Notice with your parent or guardian to make sure you understand and accept them. If we discover that we have collected personal data from a child without consent from a parent or guardian where such consent should have been obtained, we will delete that personal data as soon as practical. Access to certain parts of the Unilever’s websites and/or eligibility to receive prizes, samples or other rewards are generally limited to users over a certain age.

We sometimes use your personal data to carry out age verification checks and enforce any such age restrictions.

We collect, process and disclose your personal data only for specific and limited purposes. For example, to process your payments, to assess and handle any complaints, to develop and improve our products, services, communication methods and the functionality of our websites, to provide personalised products, communications and targeted advertising as well as product recommendations to you.

We also create profiles by analysing the information about your online surfing, searching and buying behaviour and your interactions with our brand communications by building segments (creating groups that have certain common characteristics) and by placing your personal data in one or more segments.

Additionally, Unilever processes your personal data also using automated means. An automated decision is a decision which is made solely by automatic means, where no humans are involved in the decision-making process related to your personal data.

We collect, process and disclose your personal data for the following purposes:

To process your payments, if you purchase our products, to provide you with your order status, deal with your enquiries and requests, and assess and handle any complaints;
To process and answer your inquiries or to contact you to answer your questions and/or requests;
To develop and improve our products, services, communication methods and the functionality of our websites;
For the purposes of competitions or promotions that you have entered;
To communicate information to you and to manage your registration and/or subscription to our newsletter or other communications;
To manage our everyday business needs regarding your participation in our contests, sweepstakes or promotional activities or request;
To authenticate the identity of individuals contacting us by telephone, electronic means or otherwise;
For internal training and quality assurance purposes;
To understand and assess the interests, wants, and changing needs of consumers, to improve our website, our current products and services, and/or developing new products and services; and

To provide personalised products, communications and targeted advertising as well as product recommendations to you.

When we collect and use your personal data for purposes mentioned above or for other purposes, we will inform you before or at the time of collection.

Where appropriate, we will ask for your consent to process the personal data. Where you have given consent for processing activities, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.

In some cases, we rely on legitimate interest for processing your personal data. A legitimate interest could exist for example, when you sign up for a loyalty scheme with one of our brands and we use the personal data collected to conduct data analytics to improve our products or services. This ground will only be used where it is necessary to achieve a legitimate interest, for example to assist in the performance of a contract, or to optimise a service, and does not outweigh your rights as an individual. This legal basis will only be relied upon where there is no less intrusive way to process your personal data. We can assure you that if legitimate interest is used as a ground for processing your personal data, we will keep a record of this and you have the right to ask for this information.

We process your personal data to perform a contract to which you are or will be a party. For example, we need to process your personal data to deliver a product or a service you bought, to allow you to take part in one of our competitions, or to send you samples that you have requested.

We also process your personal data when we have a legal obligation (e.g., tax or social security obligations) to perform such processing. For example, a court order or a subpoena may require us to process personal data for a particular purpose, or we may be compelled to process personal data to report suspicious transactions under the local anti-money laundering rules.

Profiling

Unilever uses your personal data to build profiles. We create profiles by analysing the information about your online surfing, searching and buying behaviour and your interactions with our brand communications by building segments (creating groups that have certain common characteristics) and by placing your personal data in one or more segments. These segments are used by Unilever to personalise the website and our communications to you (such as showing relevant content to you when you visit our site or in a newsletter to you), and to display relevant offers and advertisements from the Unilever brands on the Unilever sites, and via third-party websites. The segments can also be used for third-party campaigns on the Unilever sites. Unilever profiles your data where you have provided consent for us to do so; for example, accepting the setting of cookies on your browser online or signing up for email newsletters from one of our brands.

You can withdraw your consent to prevent your personal data being used this way at any time using the manage cookies section of our Cookie Notice or unsubscribing to the use of your email address if you have logged into one of our websites or signed up to any marketing newsletters.

By way of example –

Unilever collects data, with your consent, from:
- Our websites about what you view and the way you interact with our content;
- Our digital display advertising that we serve to you on social platforms and other publisher’s websites; and
- Forms you fill in online and send to us about what your interests are.
We also track the products you buy when you click on one of our display adverts and go on to purchase something from a selection of our retail partners.
If you have asked to receive emails or SMS communications from us, we track whether you open, read or click on the content to see what you are interested in so that we can give you more content that we think you are more likely to enjoy.
We use this data to profile your likes and dislikes. For instance, if we see that you are regularly viewing Vegan recipes on our “Recipedia” website, and you have opted in to receiving emails from us, we might give you an update on the new Vegan recipes that have just hit the site for your interest, or we may tailor our web content when you visit towards things we think you’ll be most interested in.
Based on this profile information, we may also give you advertising that we think you will like and want to see as you view content from us or from our network of publishers that we advertise with. Sometimes, with your consent, we may use your current location to serve advertising to you that is to do with promotions or events that are happening nearby that we think you might be interested in.
We may also use information you have provided to selected third-parties and consented to be shared, like your age, gender, life stage, lifestyle and wider interests to identify people who we think will have similar interests to you and who we believe will be interested in similar advertising.

Automated decision-making

In some instances, Unilever processes your personal data using automated means. An automated decision is a decision which is made solely by automatic means, where no humans are involved in the decision-making process related to your personal data. For example:

Unilever uses game simulations of science-based behavioural assessments and data science techniques to assess prospective employees. Candidates are required to play a set of games and the behavioural patterns exhibited during gameplay are assessed by a Unilever customised algorithm to predict the candidate’s potential for a specific role. This algorithm is regularly tested to ensure it remains fair, effective and unbiased.

We will not make decisions based solely on automated decision making that have significant impact on you. If we do so we notify you and provide you with clear information about our decision to rely on automated processing to make our decision and our lawful basis for doing so. For example, Unilever processes your personal data using automated means only if it is necessary for the entering into or the performance of a contract with you, or when you have given your explicit consent.

You have the right not to be subject to a decision which is based solely on automated processing and which produces legal or other significant effects on you. In particular, you have the right:

to obtain human intervention;
to express your point of view;
to obtain an explanation of the decision reached after an assessment; and
to challenge such a decision.
