Damage control and repair treatment

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I color my hair constantly and due to excessive use of chemicals and heat on my hair, I'm losing a lot of hair. I've suffering from hair breakage and shedding recently and REDKEN Acid Bonding Concentrate mask is like a miracle repair for hair. This 5 minute hair mask truly strengthened my hair as I notice less shedding and breakage and also made my hair look much healthier overall. Every time I use it, it deeply conditions my hair and adds tremendous texture and volume as well as adds shine and rejuvenates my hair. It's something I desperately needed to revitalize my hair and give it that bouncy look and feel that I truly wanted. I'd absolutely be keeping this in my hair routine forever and also recommend it to those experiencing same issues as I do. This mask is absolutely a game changer for me and I know for sure that it would help me achieve my hair goal in very little time as each time I see better results. Truly a phenomenal product!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Works surprisingly well on spit ends and damage!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received a sample of this in exchange for a review. I normally get bonding treatments along with color at a salon, but it's been a while since my last appointment, and I'm well overdue to have my ends trimmed. My hair is not very porous, despite the damage from coloring; lamellar water treatments don't work for me, and I have to be careful with protein. I was a little worried because of the silicone content in this, but my hair came out beautifully! How I used it was: I swapped it out for conditioner on a regular wash day, left it on for 5 minutes, then rinsed with lukewarm water. I'm including before/after pics; both before and after were taken after I plopped, let my hair air dry, and then slept with it in a braid. I hate when people show an "after" that's been heat-styled, so I wanted to make sure the way it was naturally was as similar as possible for both. The effect lasted until the next wash day and beyond. I'll keep using it weekly as per the directions, but I plan to use a clarifying shampoo before each use to make sure I'm not getting too much silicone buildup. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this product.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Effective at repairing and strengthening hair

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this product for free to review it and I was pleased with it. I found the consistency was quite thin, and I needed to use a lot of product for my medium-length, thick hair. I did notice an immediate improvement in the strength of my hair. It felt a lot less brittle. It was also shiny and nicely defined. However, this product is not moisturizing enough for my thick hair that needs a lot of moisture. For someone with thinner hair, this would be perfect though because it would nourish it without weighing it down.

Yes, I recommend this product.

So fresh and so smooth!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the accusing bonding concentrate on my hair the first time and didn't really notice a difference. Then a few days later I tried it again and I could feel that my hair felt cleaner and just more fresh? The instructions say to only use on the bottom half of your hair but I wanted my whole head of hair to feel that amazing so I put it everywhere and I definitely don't recommend that as my head was insanely greasy! I was so excited about this product that I used it on my daughter's hair which is very thick and gets tangled easy. After one use her hair was so much easier to comb through. I really love and recommend this product! I'll definitely keep this on hand from now on.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Amazing! Smells incredible!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a natural red head with curly hair, frizz is a fact of life. It is often dull and coarse with undefined frizzy curls and endless tangles. The 1st time I tried this shampoo and mask I was running late, threw my hair up in a clip, took it down to sleep, and it wasn't until I was leaning forward to wash my face the next morning that it fell over my shoulder and I actually looked at my hair. Even after not adding any styling products the day before and then sleeping on it, I was shocked to see how soft, shiny, and defined the curls were with no effort! Unheard of with my hair! I took these photos that morning I was so floored by the change! It smells incredible as well! I'm never going back to any other products!

Yes, I recommend this product.

The best mask I've used!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have very long ( past my butt) hair. it's also been bleached and dyed. It's been put through it! So I usually struggle with dry hair that's also somewhat damaged from what I've put it through. I was so excited to try this Redken 5min liquid mask. Let me tell you, I'm a believer now! My hair felt absolutely amazing just after one use. I have used olaplex for a long time and it made my hair feel nice but Redken 5min mask takes the cake! It's better than olaplex in my opinion. My hair was much softer and hydrated. The waves were more uniform and less frizzy. My hair just felt healthier and looked healthier and more shiny. I think I'm going to ditch the expensive olaplex system & switch to Redken. My mine has been blown with this product.

Yes, I recommend this product.

My hair looked way less frizzy and actually shiny
My waves were less frizzy

I like it!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really liked this product, both are great if you use them together. The shampoo leaves the hair soft and manageable. But my favorite is the conditioner. It is a cream that is left in the hair for 5 minutes and it is wonderful. It leaves the hair soft and when you stylize it you do not need to add other products since it also acts as a heat protector. And your hair is smooth and frizz-free. I am always looking for products to improve the texture of my hair and I will definitely buy them again. The only thing I didn't like is that it doesn't smell good, it doesn't smell ugly either but it's not a pleasant smell. Not for me.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Repairs my hair

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Firstly, let me say this mask smells amazing. But the wonderful fragrance is just the beginning. This mask doesn't just coat the outside of my hair, but melts into my hair and is absorbed deep inside the hair. As soon as applied this mask immediately detangles and only gets better. Before using this mask, my wet hair was almost impossible to brush without pulling and breaking. After using this mask my hair is no longer a tangled mess when I get out of the shower. I could see an instant difference after the first use.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Quick and effective treatment for damaged hair

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm not exactly sure what in the world is in this mask but it works. I have long color treated hair and this mask works wonders. I put in my hair from mid length to the ends and then combed through and then shaved my legs while it set in LOL. It was not heavy in my hair, it had a slight scent and left my hair feeling deep conditioned. A great product for those with long hair or color treated/ damaged hair. I tried to upload my video review but apparently it was too long LOL

Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ever since I saw this new product I have been dying to try it. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now. My hair is loving it!! It is comparable to Olaplex, but so much better. The acidic bonding concentrate mask from Redken has repaired my hair in just a few weeks. It has strengthed my damaged areas and I also feel it has repaired those areas and will prevent damage from happening. This product does wonders and you can most definitely see the difference after just one use. I noticed that my hair had less shedding as well. My hair looks so much healthier and feels soft, smooth and silky after the first use. Now when I style I have less frizz. My hair feels amazing.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Leaves my hair looking healthy

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product free for review from BzzAgent. I have used the Acidic Bonding Concentrate 5 Minute Liquid Mask several times. I like this mask for the most part. My one complaint is that it seems a little difficult to spread evenly through my hair. I also feel the consistency of the mask closer to a lotion than a hair mask. I do feel it works well for my hair as my hair does look healthier after I use this mask. My hair also feels softer, but not as soft as when I use other hair masks. In the end, I do feel this masks works and I would consider buying this hair mask in the future.

Yes, I recommend this product.

This product is great!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love acidic bonding treatments to begin with, so to receive this product to review was a bonus! I love the sleek, easy to get the product out packaging design. Some products come in bottles and I like this packaging much better to allow easy squeezing of product in the shower. It goes on smoothly on wet hair and there is no harsh chemical smell like some other products. I also like that it is only 5 minutes of waiting verses 10 minutes like some other products. After rinsing, washing, and drying, hair is definitely smoother than before. My hair is finer, so this product really shows a difference after one use. Overall, I recommend it if you are looking for something to smooth out dry ends, and fraying!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Amazing!!!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was given this product as a promotion for my honest feedback. First of the smell is awesome! And one of the things I really like is my hair continues to smell great days later. I have curly 3b hair so I only wash once a week. So for a shampoo and conditioner duo that continues to smell good days and days later is great! My hair felt so amazing after only using once. I did go ahead and wash and condition again a couple days later just so I could get a good idea of this product. But if you're on the fence I highly recommend both the shampoo and conditioner. I have always either used color wow or opaplex. And I have now found my new go to!!! LOVE IT!

Yes, I recommend this product.

I have been on a hair journey for 2 years growing out damaged, box dyed hair… I used this hair mask in conjunction with k18 products and have to say… this product made my hair feel like healthy virgin hair. I made multiple friends buy it so they could experience the miracle of this product… don’t let the price scare you… it’s worth every penny!

The BEST for color treated hair!!!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been in Spa/Salon Business for 30 years. I have personally worked for Horst both Aveda and Intelligent Nutrients..so I know hair care. Using Redken in early 90's, I did really like but haven't used in years. I was chosen to test this product and I will honestly say, I've used twice in three weeks and my hair is so soft and shiny. My hair is pretty porous from bleaching and dry from summer. Went a few shades darker for Fall, still felt dull until I tried this product!! It is a must!! You will not be disappointed!!❤️

Transformed my bleached hair

a year ago
I was inspired to write this review today after getting compliments on my hair from a complete stranger after freshening up my blonde and toning my hair, then using the Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate 5-Min Mask. I must attribute this to the mask because I pulled my foils too early. I still need to add my root shadow, so no big deal. But I ran out of time before I had to go somewhere and decided to just blow dry and finish it up later. Anyhow I'm at a baby shower this afternoon and this one woman went on and on about my hair and several other people noted my well-put together appearance. Despite my slightly orangey/yellow tinted roots, my hair shaggy cut looked crisp and neat, while still having the edge I like without the frizz and dullness that comes from damage. My hair looked bright, silky and shiny. I use Redken Spray Wax for texture and pieceyness, which really pops when your hair is in good shape. The backstory - I've know my hair was in poor shape over the last year after so many chemical treatments and bleach, but haven't had the funds to do much about it. However, while recently shopping for a few styling products on Redken's site I came across the Acidic Bonding line and decided to give the liquid mask a try. As soon as I opened the cap I was in love with the scent! I added about a dime to nickel sized dollop into my hand, flipped my hair over and worked it through mid to ends as instructed. And wow! I instantly noticed how silky my hair felt as my usual post-shampoo, tangled-when-wet hair suddenly became effortlessly detangled. About 5 minutes later I rinsed the mask with cool water. Now, normally when I put any conditioner or treatment in my hair, it loses its slip or silkening effect right after rinsing it out, so I add other treatments before I comb, dry and style it. Not this time! My hair remained silky and detangled post rinse - and remained that way after putting into one of those microfiber wrap towels for 45 minutes while doing my face treatments and makeup. To style, I followed my normal routine - pumping a few spritzes of One United as a leave-in and heat protectant, combing my hair out straight, then blowing it out, quickly run a flat iron through the face framing sides, spray wax those and my bangs, and that's it. My hair hasn't looked or felt so healthy in several years since going blonde. I absolutely love this mask. It's truly transformed my hair!! (It's confusing to see how some people have a such different experiences with this product. I'd just suggest that other bleached hair user test it on a section of your hair first if there is some reason it doesn't work well or seems to cause damage rather than repair. Maybe they're not following directions? Using too much? Leaving on for too long? Or,perhaps there's a reaction when using in tandem with another shampoo or conditioning product ingredient being used right before using this mask?? Or maybe it's something else, totally unrelated and they're attributing it to the mask.Hmmmm)

Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this treatment! My hair was in disarray before using the shampoo and treatment and its feels incredible now. I have fine, curly hair that was damaged due to color, lightning. I started using this treatment about 3 wks ago and can feel a drastic difference and change in the look and feel of my hair. I have used it once a week for 3 weeks. My hair feels softer, my ends are smoother and i have a significant change in the frizziness I was dealing with. My hair feels amazing in the short time i have been using it. This treatment makes my hair feel like silk. It has been a life saver. Would definitely recommend.

In just five minutes, it transforms my locks into silky, vibrant strands. The acidic formula feels gentle yet powerful, leaving my hair strengthened and visibly healthier. The scent is subtle and refreshing, enhancing the overall experience. I love how it effortlessly detangles, making post-shower combing a breeze. The convenient liquid form is a time-saver, ensuring quick application without any mess. Redken truly nailed it with this mask— it's become my go-to for a speedy, salon-worthy hair revival. I said goodbye to dullness when i switched to using this mask regularly.

Best bonding product I've ever used

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review* I've tried other bonding products before and never saw results so I didn't have my hopes up for this one. I was blown away after my first wash! I have frizzy, fine, wavy hair that has been bleached and/or colored for most of my life. I followed the directions and my test to see how well it worked was to try running a wide tooth comb through my hair while wet before putting in any product. It combed through like silk! I let my hair air dry and it was soft and silky with much less frizz. I've used it twice more and my hair has never looked better. I definitely recommend it and will purchase when I'm out.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was really excited to try this product. I was given this product in exchange for an honest review. The product was a lot thinner than I was expecting. The 5 minute timeline was really exciting to me. Most hair masks I have used have a lotion like texture, but this was much more liquidy. I had to use quite a bit more of the product the cover my hair. My hair felt softer afterwards, but I can't say that it made a huge difference yet. I am excited to keep trying it to see a long term change.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I decided to try this product since it was free as long as I review it and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised. I wasn't expecting to receive a full size, but they did send a full size and it is HUGE! After shampooing your hair you put the mask on from mid to ends and let it sit for 5 minutes. This mask smells SO GOOD, it smells like oranges and something else I can't quite figure out. After letting my hair air dry I brushed it, I usually don't have a lot of tangles but I did notice it was almost completely smooth brushing through. My hair was noticeably softer and my curls seemed more defined and seemed lighter. Overall I will be buying this whenever I run out!

Smoothing formula

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This hair mask will bring your hair to the next level in smoothness. Apply mid-lengths to ends after shampoo and leave on for 5 minutes. Rinse out and feel the difference. Add strength to your strands and detangle for a great salon feel. Use at least once a week for benefits and as often as you prefer. It contains an alpha hydroxy acid so your scalp may be sensitive to the sun after using. A top notch salon product you need at home for a little treat for yourself.

And let me tell you you can see the difference immediately you can feel it. This product leaves your hair so silky smooth that you just want to run your fingers through it constantly. I also see a difference in the shine of my hair it makes it very shiny. The scent is amazing! It does leave your hair so soft and smooth for days after use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was sent this product to review and it is fantastic! It's a liquid mask that you leave on your hair for 5 minutes. It's to be used after the Acidic Bonding Concentrate Shampoo. After 5 minutes I rinsed the mask out of my hair and my hair felt so wonderful. It felt so clean and fresh. There was no residue like you get from conditioner or other hair masks. This made my hair feel so good, and the smell is really nice too. When I styled my hair afterward,(I use one of the brushes that also dries your hair as you style it with the brush), I didn't even have to go over it with my straightener like I usually do. My hair came out straight and not one strand of frizz. Redken has a new customer!

Leaves hair feeling like silk with a great shine.

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thank you Redken for sending me this product in exchange for a review. Let me start off my saying the ABC mask smells amazing. Very clean and fragrant smelling. The consistency is a perfect mix of thickness for richness, while having the slip and "spreadability" of a thinner consistency conditioner/mask. Perfectly evenly coated hair and made my unruly curly hair so easy to detangle. I then left the product on for like 30 minutes. Once I rinsed the product out my hair felt like silk and had an amazing shine once dry. It remained very silky and smooth for longer than just using a normal conditioner. And with continued use, I believe it has been reducing the appearance of my split ends. I love this product and will buy it consistently. It works so well and is much cheaper than other products that make the same claims. Thank you, again, Redken, from me and my hair! Check the pics for before and after!!

Great hair mask!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've used this mask a few times now over a couple of weeks. The first thing I enjoy is that's it's essentially an unscented product. It's not an entirely thick mask and I don't feel like it rinses out and makes your hair feel that almost silky texture BUT I feel like when my hair is dried and styled, it's softer, smoother and generally feels a lot better when I use it vs when I just use regular conditioner. Try it and see how soft your ends feel for a couple of days after washing. I'll definitely be buying this again. *full disclosure. I received this product in exchange for an honest review*

Yes, I recommend this product.

Works Great!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate 5 Minute Liquid Mask works amazingly! All you do is use it as a conditioner replacement after shampooing and leave it on for only 5mins. It helps to detangle, strengthen, hydrate and make your hair shiny and smooth. I absolutely love it, and highly recommend if you are looking for a great quality hair mask to add to your weekly routine!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Bouncy hair and full of volume

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this product!!! After you shampoo your hair, add the mask for five minutes. A little goes a long way, leaves my hair so soft. The mask has a nice fragrance it's not overpowering, I've been using it for three weeks, wanted to leave an honest review. Redken makes amazing hair products I've been using them for years. Can't go wrong when using their products.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Smells Great not as hydrating as I'd like

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The liquidy texture caught me off guard the first time I used this product. It is very thin and not typically as thick as most hair masks. I cannot speak on the long-term effects since I have only used this a few times. My hair was easy to detangle, and it felt noticeably softer. However, it did not help with the frizz at all. I'm not sure if it claims to. But I do know it claims to provide more hydration, and for me, that was not the case. I bleach my hair often, so I need products with more hydration and bond repair. I would not purchase this. I think there are better products out there.

No, I do not recommend this product.

5 minutes to great hair

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I applied this 5min mask after using the redken shampoo, I left it on for the full five minutes then I rinse with water. The mask went on very easy and saturated my hair. I only had to use a small amount to get good coverage. The results were fluffy hair after I dried it. Smooth and full of volume. Great products I definitely recommend

Yes, I recommend this product.

Insanely Silky Strands!

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this mask! After only five minutes, my over bleached, over dyed strands have been transformed into strands of magical silk. Unfortunately, I had nose surgery a couple weeks ago, so I don't know if there is any fragrance since I can't smell yet. Texture is like a thin lotion. It applies easily and works well throughout your hair.

Yes, I recommend this product.

5 min mask for smooth shiny hair

2 years ago
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks Redken for sending me the conditioning mask for free to sample. Using only a small amount the acidic concentrate 5 min liquid mask transformed my damaged hair! Getting blonde highlights took a toll on my hair and with one treatment my hair is smooth and shiny. Can't wait to see what the mask can do with further treatments!

Yes, I recommend this product.

Damaged my hair

2 years ago
It fried my hair gave me a color chemical burn. My hair has never gotten damaged from using shades eq this was my 1st time using shades eq plus bonder . My hair strand elasticity strength is weak and breaks off and coils back crunchy , it feels like gum I used it as directed and I don’t have any medications and it felt horrible while I rinsed it with just water before I used my vegan shampoo It’s been a horrible experience, I’ve been using non permanent hair color for a couple years now to regrow natural healthy hair. And now my entire hair strand is damaged. I contacted redken directly and the rep was rude and kept talking about herself and how she’s a chemist and she burns her hair off and blah blah blah. Very rude I’m literally in shock .

No, I do not recommend this product.

If you use it correctly, it is magical

a year ago
My stylist uses this on my hair when I get my balayage lightening. Rather than paying 80.00 for a toner application only between full services, I decided to try it at home. Mixed it exactly as was described using 2 bonder colors (9V and 10GRo), 000 crystal clear, and the processing solution. Applied to clean, dry hair and left it on for 20 minutes. May hair looks like I just left the salon. It is shiny, soft and the color is exactly what I was looking for. I realize doing a home hair color job is not always recommended and can be done incorrectly, but I followed all the directions and it came out perfect.

Yes, I recommend this product.

DREADFUL PRODUCT!!

2 years ago
I used the product a week ago. It made my hair extremely, dry, fizzy and stiff -- more like straw than hair. I to correct the situation by using deep conditioner, mask, your 25 Benefits One United in an attempt to reverse the damage/condition -- no improvement. I couldn't be more upset, worried, unhappy and at loss as to how to restore my hair to its previous state..

No, I do not recommend this product.
