Bond Angel Plex Effect Hair Protection Treatment Kit for All Types - Step 1, 2, 2 (3.38 fl. oz) - Protects Hair from Damage During Coloring, Bleaching, and Chemical Procedures.

Just a little background – I was a double processed blonde for years, you know that sort of permanently brassy bright buttery blonde? Anyhow about four months or more ago I decided I wanted to grow out my base color and be a more dimensional blonde. My hair was pretty fried, bad texture, permanently kind of fuzzy and swollen looking strands. I kind of like that natural balyage/ombré look, but not so severe. My hair naturally lightens with the sun so I’ve been keeping the ends as bright as possible.Anyhow, I started just doing subtle baby highlights on the crown of my head with 10 volume bleach ( I have extremely fine fragile hair, just a lot of it) and in between the foils I would paint demi-permanent color around a level eight. To blend my regrowth a bit. It wasn’t perfect, but working well. (And it’s still not where I want it to be, but closer!) by the way, the underneath portion of my hair that rarely sees the sun is probably like a level five to a level six, but the top of my head is a level seven- my hair lightened pretty easily in the sunshine.Anyhow, before I tried this bond angel product- I did a bunch of things to prepare my hair for coloring and just strengthen it in general because it really looks like complete crap a couple months ago, so I think these things helped as well.- I drastically reduced the amount of coloring I put my hair through for a couple months only touching up the crown, only using demi color and 10 volume for highlights.- I started using k-pak reconstructor about once a week.-I bought a new blow dryer that dried my hair faster with better technology, - I bought a great big six-inch round brush so I didn’t have to struggle straightening my hair for an hour every day, which reduced the amount of heat I put on it. I forgot to mention, I have super curly hair naturally, like Mariah Carey in the 90s.- I also bought Olaplex 3 and used it a few times before doing this treatment – that stuffs amazing!So today I decided to highlight my entire head… Since the underneath portion of my hair was virginal at this point, I had already cut off all the double processed blonde parts. Although the top of my head still had some of the leftover double processed blonde and was more damaged than underneath. I used this as the directions stated with 10 volume bleach for 3/4 of my head, 20 volume directly on the crown, since I got to that part last…I let it process a long time, because 10 volume takes a while… I think also because I was doing larger chunks of blonde underneath it took a long time to process, maybe an hour with little to no heat. The top processed for a shorter amount of time and I painted between the foils with a level 8 to help blend my base. I also pulled the bleach through to the ends, which I have not done for months, because my hair normally will break when I do that – but my ends were looking pretty dingy.Anyhow, I noticed very little shedding when I was rinsing, my hair looks just about the same healthiness as before I colored it. Which is awesome! There’s very little breakage, just a little bit around my hairline, but I already had that to begin with. I actually think I would’ve done even brighter chunkier blonde through the crown had I known that this would protect my hair is much as it did. Next time I’ll go all out!I think this is a very helpful product. And contrary to what some reviews have said it’ll last a while because you don’t use that much of it in the bleach mixture. Also I went to their website and got the instructions on how to use it with color – they also have instructions on how to mix it in with Keratin treatments and other things like that.If you do your own hair, and struggle with breakage… I really think this product helps. Usually my hair feels like a stretchy sponge after I bleach it as much as I did today. It feels normal- just a bit flyaways, but I had that before. I give this five stars, because I think it delivers on its promise – just don’t expect miracles. Btw, I have really bad flyaway hairs because I’ve been taking supplements that Have been accelerating my hair growth and/or thickening my hair and I have tons of baby hair sticking up all over the place – not breakage. :)

If you’re an Olaplex fan, you will like this. Performed well!

♥️I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BOND ANGEL HAIR TREATMENT ♥️ The only thing that I’m not a super huge fan of is the price. The box set is almost $50 and the recommended hair mask is $20 so it’s quite pricey.But if you’re going to bleach your hair or color it, it’s well worth the price. I personally feel like it is better than the alternative big OP brand. It always keeps by hair from receiving any damage from bleaching my hair. I also love that even if you’re not bleaching or coloring your hair, you can add it to filter water at the directed ratio and use it as a stand alone treatment. And you receive enough in one box for bleaching and numerous other treatments.The smell is amazing! I absolutely am in love with the smell.Honestly if it was not so pricey, I’d keep in always in stock in my house. Unfortunately I have a 10 year old girl going on 17. If you know you know.

Seems to have worked good. Hair didn’t feel as damaged as normal but olaplex does a better job in that way. Oaplex makes your hair extra soft! It did help me bleach it to a light banana color and I am happy with it. The smell of part #1 was a little gross but I’ll deal as long as it works. Good value compared to olaplex though.

My hair looks and feels so much healthier after using this

I have used this combo both with a bleaching session and as a bond-rebuilding treatment. Using it with bleach did not produce any noticeable results that I could see as opposed to bleaching without it, so that was disappointing. It does affect processing time so be prepared to adjust for that.I have also used this a couple of weeks after bleaching to repair my hair and got much better results than I did using it for its primary purpose. It left my hair noticeable softer and easier to comb. I highly advise purchasing the step 3 to go along with it (it's not included in this kit). I gave 4 stars because it did work well as a rebonding treatment; although it didn't help much (if any) during the bleaching process.Final takeaway: Use Olaplex during bleaching if you need to protect your hair and use this afterwards to help with re-conditioning and rebuilding hair. Buy the #3, also.

This treatment kit is the real deal. I have been trying for years to get my hair to a white-ish blonde(I’ve had it done professionally and did DIY since I went to cosmetology school about 10 years ago), but we could never get it to the icy blonde I wanted without damage. I have tried Olaplex several times, and as good as that product is for a lot of people’s hair, it just doesn’t do much for mine. It was getting expensive, so I decided to try Bond Angel and it was seriously like a dang miracle for my hair. I was able to safely get to the icy white blonde level that I have been desiring for years without any damage. My hair actually felt like it was in better condition after bleaching and using the treatment than it was before. I was super happy with my results and I plan to use it again in the future! This is a really great product, especially for the price.
