Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Hair Bandage Balm is a leave-in split-end repair balm that targets the most damaged part of the hair, the ends, to visibly seal split ends, strengthen and smooth. It is the end-focused leave-in of the Acidic Bonding Concentrate bond-repair range for chemically treated and damaged hair.
The balm carries an 8% Bonding Care Complex built on citric acid and Madecathenol, a pairing of madecassoside and panthenol. It absorbs quickly into the lengths to hydrate, smooth and reinforce fragile ends without leaving them heavy, and it adds heat protection up to 230°C before blow-drying or hot tools.
- Visibly seals up to 96% of damaged, dry split ends after two applications (Redken testing)
- Ends feel up to 12x smoother instantly (vs. non-conditioning shampoo)
- Heat protection up to 230°C
- Can be reapplied to dry ends between washes
A pea-sized amount is enough: work it into clean, damp hair from the ends up to the mid-lengths, leave it in and style as usual. Touch up dry ends with a little more whenever they look frayed. It pairs with the Acidic Bonding Concentrate shampoo and conditioner for a complete repair routine. One 2.5 oz (75 ml) jar.
