The product
It’s not every day that one encounters a beauty product that’s truly transformational and deserving of the highest praise.
And it’s even more of a rarity here at BEAUTYcrew, because as discerning beauty lovers, our hand-selected panel of Review Crew® members are no strangers to outlandish claims and subsequent disappointment.
But despite their ‘pinch of salt’ attitude, the Review Crew® decided to award the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Treatment five stars.
Why? Well, according to the members, the ceramide, amino acid, and plant-based oil-enriched formula completely changed the way their hair looks and feels. Evidently, the pre-wash treatment’s claims of repairing, fortifying and strengthening for healthier-looking and shiny hair are all true.
Here’s what our panel of Review Crew® testers had to say about this rare gem.
The panel
Beauty Crew sent the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Treatment to a panel of women aged 18 and older with a variety of hair types and textures, who have broken and chemically, mechanically or environmentally damaged hair.
The lowdown
Here’s what the Review Crew® loved about the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate Intensive Treatment.
The way it transforms damaged hair: Review Crew® members were not shy when it came to sharing their feelings about this pre-wash treatment. A lot of them said their hair underwent a transformation after using it and they started to receive compliments on the appearance of their hair.
Their hair feels stronger: Most of the reviewers said that their hair was dry, damaged and kept breaking due to over-processing and bleach, but the pre-wash treatment helped to fortify their hair, and made it feel stronger and look healthier too.
Their hair is softer, smoother and shinier: Strong and healthy hair is great, but we think it’s safe to assume that the softening, smoothing and shine-boosting effects of the treatment had something to do with the increase of compliments our reviewers were receiving.
