Bond Boost

• What is bond repair?

  Your hair is naturally made up of chemical bonds that are too small for the eye to see. There are three types of bonds found in our hair: disulfide bonds (which are strong), hydrogen bonds and salt bonds (which are weaker). They come together to form hair’s structural strength, elasticity and shine. 

  When hair is exposed to chemical services (like dyeing, bleaching and relaxing), pollution or heat styling, these bonds can break, resulting in reduced hair integrity. Bond Boost for New Wash and Bond Serum work to restore those broken bonds by penetrating the hair fibers with our exclusive ProTarget Technology™, which delivers crucial first aid exactly where your strands need it.

• What is Bond Boost for New Wash?

  Bond Boost for New Wash is an additive for your favorite New Wash formula that works as you cleanse and condition, saving you time while repairing hair damage. Uniquely formulated with our exclusive ProTarget Technology™, it provides intense healing of seriously damaged hair and enhances the repair benefits of Bond Serum.

• What is the most important thing to know about Bond Boost for New Wash?

  Each Bond Boost tube must be mixed with 8oz New Wash. Do not use this product by itself.

• What happens if I use Bond Boost without New Wash?

  You automatically get sent to Hairstory jail. Just kidding—but this formula is too concentrated to be used alone. For best results and additional repair effects on chemically damaged hair, mix it with 8oz of your favorite New Wash formula.

• Can I use Bond Boost with any New Wash formula?

  Yes! Bond Boost can be used with New Wash Original, New Wash Rich and New Wash Deep.

• Who can use Bond Boost for New Wash?

  Bond Boost for New Wash is ideal for anyone who prioritizes the health and well-being of their hair and/or whose hair is: 

  • chemically treated (e.g., colored, bleached, relaxed or permed)
  • heat-damaged from frequent use of styling tools like flat irons or curling irons
  • frizzy
  • dry 

  Bond Boost is also perfect for anyone who already uses New Wash or wants to try it.

• How do I use Bond Boost?

  1. Shake the tube well. 
  2. Squeeze the entire contents of the tube and 8oz New Wash into the jar, then whisk together thoroughly. 
  3. Get hair wet, coat hair with the mix and deeply massage it into roots and all the way down to tips. Let it sit for 3-5 minutes. 
  4. Rinse very well. 

  Use every time you wash your hair or as directed by your trusted hairdresser. Remember: Do not use Bond Boost by itself; it must be mixed with 8oz New Wash.

• Is Bond Boost suitable for use with every wash?

  Yes, Bond Boost can be used every time you wash your hair with New Wash.

• What is ProTarget Technology™ in Bond Boost?

  ProTarget Technology™ is our exclusive double repair efficacy complex that combines cuticle-nourishing nutrients and a clinically proven bond-restoring complex that fortifies hair from within. It delivers twice the recovery benefits of other hair repair treatments, healing and preventing compromised areas like split ends, breakage and frizz.

• Why is ProTarget Technology™ in Bond Boost unique?

  ProTarget Technology™ delivers double repair efficacy—meaning it heals hair inside and out—thanks to its unique formulation with liposome technology that offers these benefits:

  • Targeted delivery and enhanced penetration: ProTarget Technology™ consists of liposomes, which are tiny sphere-shaped particles that can encapsulate active ingredients like vitamins, antioxidants or other beneficial compounds. Liposomes in ProTarget Technology™ encapsulate specific active repair ingredients like panthenol and ceramides, allowing for targeted delivery and enhanced penetration. This is particularly beneficial in hair repair because it enables the delivery of reparative or nourishing substances directly to damaged areas of the hair.
  • Protection of active ingredients: Liposomes provide a protective barrier around active ingredients, shielding them from external factors that could degrade their effectiveness. 
  • Longer-lasting results: The controlled release of active ingredients from liposomes allows for a sustained and gradual release over time. This can result in longer-lasting effects compared to products without liposome technology.
• Does Bond Boost pose a risk of protein overload?

  No. Protein overload is caused by products that contain a large amount of hair protein in their formula. Bond Boost contains only <1% arginine in its formula to synergistically work with other actives to strengthen the hair, decrease hair breakage, minimize hair loss, moisturize and (for those who color their hair) protect from the damaging effects of bleach.

• Can Bond Boost for New Wash be used with Bond Serum?

  Yes, we recommend using Bond Serum and Bond Boost together, as Bond Boost contains ingredients designed to interact with and repair damaged hair bonds. Through a combination of surface preparation, conditioning and moisturization, Bond Boost primes the hair to better receive the active ingredients in Bond Serum, ensuring a more thorough repair approach. As a result, when Bond Serum is applied after cleansing with Bond Boost, its reparative components may have an enhanced ability to penetrate the hair shaft.

• Can I use Bond Boost for New Wash with Hairstory Color Boosts?

  Yes! Bond Boost can be used together with Purple, Blue or Red Color Boosts. Start with 8oz New Wash and mix in 1 tube of each Boost for comprehensive damage repair and extra color protection. Remember: Do not use Bond Boost or any Color Boost alone; they must be mixed with New Wash.
