Great spray for damaged hair

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my 3rd redken product that I was able to try and I loved this to! I am always worried about my hair being damaged because of continuous use of hair color. I noticed my hair is becoming dry and brittle but thanks to this new found product it help my hair to regain it's natural health.

I was first introduced to this product back in 2006 after I got my hair dyed professionally and was complaining of my hair being thin and having breakage I decided to try the entire Redken extreme line including the Redken extreme cat protein reconstructing hair treatment spray in my hair not only grew so much longer than it ever had but it was thicker and healthier I have since then had a baby about three years ago and am experiencing feeling once again so I’ve started to use the line again and have seen the results instantaneously what was I thinking that using this consistently I will continue to use this always such a great buy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was hesitant to try this 3 step process especially after reading some of the reviews that said it left your hands blue and even sores on your scalp, ouch! Luckily my results were completely different. At first I tried using it with gloves just to be safe and then realized even without gloves it did not leave my hands blue. The results were definitely noticeable after one use. I will continue to repurchase this 3 step process since it has worked better for me than any other purple shampoos and conditioners. Must have for blondes or highlighted hair, no more brassy hair. I received this product complimentary for my honest review.
Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly this product seems pointless to me. A spray bottle in the shower is impossible to use. I wish this was in some sort of cream form and in a squeeze bottle. Definitely poor design. I also feel or see no difference after I use it. Spraying a liquid on my hair to sit when it’s already wet really does nothing but tangle my hair. It’s hard to comb through a spritz of basically water when your hair is already wet while you’re in the shower. I used this several times and then gave up on it. It’s difficult to use and see no results. I received this product complimentary for review purposes but all opinions are my own.
No, I do not recommend this product.

We are sorry to hear that you are having difficulty using this product. It can be used on towel dried hair as well, which may make it easier for you to use. For best results leave it in for 3-5 minutes depending on the degree of damage. Rinse out. To intensify the strength of extremely damaged hair follow with Anti-Snap leave in treatment before styling. We hope this is helpful. We appreciate the time you have taken to share your experience with us. Your opinion is important to us and we will be sharing your comments with others in the company.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been using this for about 6 months now, and am pretty much done with the entire bottle. I have never used a product like this before, so don't really have anything to compare it to. I do know that I love it, and it's now a staple in my haircare rotation. It comes in a really easy to use pump bottle, and it lasts a long time. I have shoulder length curly think hair, and a bottle lasted me over 6 months. I use it in the shower when my hair is wet. I ring out the excess water, spray it on my hair, comb it through, and let it sit for about 10 minutes before rinsing out. My hair breaks much less, and is a lot healthier looking and feeling. It doesn't smell the best, but it isn't horrible, either. I heat style my hair almost daily and get it bleached, so this has really helped repair my hair. It's a great product at a fair price.
Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this spray as part of my first Influenster Voxbox about a month ago.
Learning curve: So this is a bit ridiculous but I found the best way to use this spray was by taking a Navy shower (get wet turn the shower off lather up turn the shower on rinse off… and so on) mostly because my hot water tank isn’t big enough for me to take a 15+ minute shower… but also makes it easier to hold the spray bottle.
Packaging: spraying in the shower takes a minute to get use to. Holding and spraying with one hand is the only way I’ve made this work with the water on.
Smell: I don’t think this product has much of a smell of any kind
Does it work? I think this spray is the catalyst that makes the rest of this in shower system work. Using the shampoo and conditioner without it almost seems pointless.
This spray is now my secret weapon for shiny hair I really like it
Yes, I recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Extreme Cat Protein Reconstruction Treatment Spray was actually on my shopping list before I received it to review! The bleaching required to prep my hair for purple color took its toll. I was in dire need of some extra protein! The Cat spray restores strength to the core of your hair and gives shine, without adding additional weight through styling products.
Yes, I recommend this product.

POORLY DESIGNED BOTTLE...
DawnS
10 years ago
I bought this at the suggestion of my hair stylist. I have only attempted to use it two or three times but the design of the bottle makes is impossible to use in the shower with wet hands. You can NOT hold on to the bottle with ONE HAND while trying to press the pump at the top to get the product onto the hair if your hands are wet (as they are when taking a shower)....your hand will slide up making it IMPOSSIBLE to hold and apply with one hand. Clearly this product is made to USE WHILE IN THE SHOWER since you only leave on a few minutes and then rinse it out. They need to redesign the shape of the bottle....for that ALONE, I will never purchase this product again until they do so. TWO THUMBS DOWN!!!!!!
No, I do not recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After just one use I noticed a huge improvement in my hair! I do have hair a little thicker and past my shoulders so it usually looks dull, bland, boring. When I tried the Redken Extreme Cat protein treatment it took away all the negatives in my hair (fly always, lack of shine, lack of volume, etc) and put everything in that I wanted (shine, volume, soft to the touch). All I did was wash my hair and use this in place of my conditioner. Left it in a little over 5 minutes and rinsed. I'm loving my salon like results to put life back into my lifeless hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complimentary for testing purposes. I adore redken products and was super excited to try this. I did notice that my hair was softer and shinier afterwards, without being too weighed down. However, I don’t think it did much for anti-breakage.... it’s definitely hard to tell if it helped. Also the packaging sucks... it’s in a spray bottle and it is SO difficult to spray with wet hands! So I knocked off 2 stars for packaging and the claims for it being anti-breakage but it is a good product to help shine and smooth your hair!
No, I do not recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this item as a complimentary gift and have been using it infrequently for about a month alongside the Redken Blondage Shampoo and Conditioner. The smell is lovely and the spray is a lightweight mist, but unfortunately it leaves behind quite a bit of residue in my hair. Although my hair has a lot a body, it tends to look greasy quickly, so this particular product is not something I will use on a regular basis. I will say, however, that it is a nice refresher for an occasional conditioning treatment for the my dry and brittle hair ends!
Yes, I recommend this product.

The first time I tried this product was back in 2016 at the salon I was working at and have used it ever since. This is such a great product for anyone with processed hair that needs some extra love. I find it works best when applied to freshly washed hair that has been towel dried and left on to soak in. After a few uses you’ll see amazing results! I’d like to think this product is one that has aided in my hair growth and keeping it strong. This will forever be a favorite product of mine that I rephrases time and time again!

J.Huff: This stuff has been around for about 20 years now and I can see why - it REALLY WORKS. It totally strengthens and stops breaking and splitting hair. A lot of people don't seem to understand that this is NOT a conditioner - It is a treatment, so don't expect it to leave hair soft, silky and tangle-free. You also need to apply it properly: Shampoo with Hair Cleansing Creme or a Clairifying Shampoo, Spray about 8 to ten pumps on damp hair add more as needed until it lathers up, wait 5 to 15 mins. or until lather disappears. Use a plastic cap if your hair is very damaged and wait 20 mins. rinse well and follow with your regular conditioner or a masque to soften and detangle. If the product doesn't lather it means your hair is very damaged and needs more product.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I had really high expectations for this product as I received it for free for testing purposes and the other Redken Blondage products that came with it were awesome. However, when I realized this is an in shower product I was confused because of the spray feature. Personally I found it a little difficult to use and to tell where the product had been applied since it follows shampooing. It didn’t give clarification if this is used in the place of conditioner or in addition. I wouldn’t buy this product on its own.

my stylist recommended this product after the discontinuation of the Color care Total Recharge. I had used total recharge for years. It worked so well to protect my hair from blow drying, coloring, and the sun as I work outside all day. The best thing it did was give my hair such volume! Provided such depth and body to my otherwise soft, limb and very, very fine blonde hair. I tried this product and it did not provide the same results at all. Made it very soft, but soft to the point it wouldn't eve ld any curl.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the smell of this product. I'm not sure how I feel about the execution or results of using, however. I've noticed as I've gotten older that my hair seems a bit damaged from styling products, and was hoping that this would help. My hair was very knotted after using it; I was expecting it to be even better than using standard conditioner, and it wasn't. A little disappointed - I would not purchase this. Also, I almost felt like I needed to use conditioner afterwards, to get rid of the knots in my hair.

Hello Kathy2! Thank you for trying our Extreme CAT protein reconstructing hair treatment spray. This product is targeted more for chemically damaged hair. Your hair became knotted because this product contains protein and if not needed in the hair it will cause a reserve effect. I would recommend our Extreme Anti-Snap Leave -In Treatment, this product protects the hair form chemical damage, heat damage from hot hairstyling tools, mechanical damage, surface damage, and hair breakage. We hope this information helps!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy this product and do feel like it helps protect my hair from breakage. However, it is definitely a strengthening treatment and NOT a conditioning treatment. first time I used this product, I made the mistake of skipping conditioner, thinking it would have a deep conditioning feel on its own. Since then, I discovered that it actually helps to use more conditioner than normal, when using the Extreme CAT treatment. Without a little extra deep conditioning, this product definitely makes my hair tangle worse than normal. I use Redken's Extreme Bleach Recovery Lamellar Water more frequently, which is perfect for my specific hair type (fine, bleached) and then I do the Extreme CAT treatment about once every 1-2 months. Seems to work great and keep my bleached hair healthy and strong!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have been using this for over 30 years since they discontinued p.p.t.-s77. Most people who use it don’t seem to know how to use it or what it is supposed to do. Redken would do well to put up videos showing how to use their products and how they are supposed to work so they do not have unrealistic expectations. I apply enough to get a really good foam and cover with a plastic cap for 15 min. MINIMUM. I follow up an Extreme CAT Treatment with a moisturizing treatment for softness and de tangling.
Yes, I recommend this product.

If you follow anything I post, you will notice there are A LOT of different hair colors. It is really important that I plan out my hair health with my stylist to make sure the integrity of my hair stays. She recommended this at the beginning of our working relationship and the product is not only amazing, but lasts forever! When you first spray it in, it feels coarse and awful, but after conditioner, you r hair will be so healthy! Highly highly recommend for anyone who plays with their hair a lot!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn't really notice any difference after using the Redken Extreme CAT product. I was confused when I first used it (expecting it to be like a conditioner, but it was a spray). After spraying it on my wet hair and letting it sit for the required time, I didn't notice any difference in my hair. I was expecting it to be something like conditioner and about tore my hair out combing it. It didn't make my hair soft or any other changes that I could tell. I wouldn't purchase this product again.

Hello Trisha1! We are so sorry you felt like this product did not condition your hair. Our Extreme CAT protein reconstructing hair treatment is not a leave-in conditioner. It is only meant to strengthen the hair by adding protein to it. Perhaps you are looking for a product more like our Extreme Anti-Snap Leave-In Treatment for Damaged Hair. This product fortifies and smooths the cuticle to reduce breakage and split ends while keeping the hair feeling soft. You can find this product here https://www.redken.com/products/hair-care/extreme/damaged-hair-split-ends-treatment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never realized how much protein would help my hair. Having my hair in a messy bun (working from home) so much. I hadn't noticed it needed a little something (other than a trim). It was breaking and just looked rough. After shampooing, I applied this and left it while showering and rinsed. Wow! Just one use and my hair is so soft, smooth and looks much healthier. I use it a couple of days before I get color for even more protection. And I really love the scent and that it comes in a spray!

I have definitely noticed a difference in the health of my hair since using this. My split ends are almost non-existent and my hair doesn't look nearly as frayed. I'm a firm believer that this product is the reason my hair health has improved so much. It is easy to use, and it smells amazing! I definitely recommend it for anyone whose hair needs a little bit of TLC.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is an in-shower leave-in pre-conditioning product. It makes your hair softer than it would be with conditioner alone. In order to use the product, you spray wet hair and allow it to sit for 5 minutes. One downside there is that you do have to spend a bit of extra time in the shower to allow the product to sink in. This may be a downside depending on how efficiently you bathe/shower. If you have dry ends that aren't smooth, this product is for you. It just takes time for it to work!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Using this product has made my hair feel softer and look as well as feel healthier and moisturized. I feel that overall my hair so far seems to be getting stronger and I have less breaking off pieces throughout my hair. This is super easy to use just spray and leave for about 5 minutes after you wash your hair and rinse! This will likely be a keeper for me. I am always looking for products that enhance the features of my hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this product after using the shampoo and before conditioning. I have never tried a product like this before. After using all 3 products I could tell my hair was getting brighter and blonder but I’m not sure if this product had anything to do with it. I found the spray bottle hard to use in the shower. It always slips out of my hands when I’m trying to spray it with the finger pump. It would be easier if it had a trigger pump mechanism like a bottle of windex does... it would be much more shower friendly. Once the product was in, it just made my hair feel tangly which is okay I suppose since you use the conditioner anyway. I don’t hate the product, and it may be contributing to my great results, but I just wish it was more user friendly. I received this product complimentary for testing purposes.

Extremely worth it! I like to use it as a leave in after washing my hair with the redken shampoo and conditioner. It has a really nice smell to it. It works wonders. It detangles, and strengthens my hair. Surprisingly I’ve also noticed a significant amount of hair growth. I also use this as my heat protectant. But remember a little goes a long way. I either run my fingers through my hair or I use a big comb to get it all throughout my hair. I like to focus this product on my ends.

Extreme cat, featuring my yawning cat! I received this product for free for my review, and so far I really like it, and have already suggested it to multiple friends.
It’s a 3-5 minute treatment to put on between shampoo and conditioner for damaged hair, and they have many before and after pictures displayed claiming it can dramatically heal / fix hair.
I have used this twice, and have elbow length hair, with damage towards the ends. My hair has been very sleek and manageable with no fly aways, and I hope this product continues to work this well. I wouldn’t say it’s as dramatic as the featured images, but it’s a helluva lot better!
It is surprisingly affordable and I will definitely purchase this in the future when I run out, and I encourage those with a low budget and damaged hair to give it a shot too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoy this product. However, I wouldn’t say it’s been a life changing product for me. I have dry bleached hair. So I need all the hydrating product I can possibly get for my hair. I think the only thing that confuses me and frustrates me about this product is the bottle and the nozzle where the product comes out. I will make sure my hair is damp and I’ll spray the product onto my hand and run it through my hair, especially my ends of my hair. I will also use a comb or hair brush to brush the product through. I’ll do this in the shower and leave it on for about 10-15 minutes. After, I rinse it all out after shampooing and conditioning my hair. It’s a little extra step I add after. I wouldn’t say this product is life changing for me, but it’s not horrible either. There are better hydrating masks out there on the market.

The product is very good, but used to be great. The formula has changed over the years. It's been around for at least 30 years - I used to use it in the 90s, when the product was brownish in color and STUNK, but wow was it massively effective. Now, the scent is pleasant, but the efficacy is not what it once was. Having said that, it still is the best I've found for getting protein treatments on your hair. I still miss the stinky, but more effective formula.

Honestly this product makes no sense. The instructions say to spray it in your hair between shampooing and conditioning and I just don’t understand how it’s suppose to help because you wash it out. And using the spray in the shower is impossible because I don’t have a mirror in my shower and therefore can’t tell if the spray is even going on my hair. Overall just very confusing for consumers. I did receive this product for free for testing purposes

Hi Allison G! We are disappointed to hear that you had a hard time using our Extreme CAT Protein Reconstructing Hair Treatment Spray! We will be passing this valuable information on to the rest of our team as we are always looking for ways to improve the performance of our products. We recommend spraying evenly on hair and lather.

Healthier hair!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never previously used a product like this, so I was surprised when it foamed! It is obviously not at all like a typical conditioner, although it does help to reconstruct and recondition hair. Redken Extreme CAT Protein Rinse Out Treatment helps to strengthen hair and reduce breakage. My hair instantly felt healthier and softer after using it, but without weighing it down. I would definitely recommend this product now that I've tried it!
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have been using this stuff forever, since its first generation came out over 20 years ago. Definitely a nearest and dearest hair care product that I always go back to. I shampoo then spritz this on for about 5 mins while I take care of my shower business, then follow with a good conditioner. I can feel this protein reconstructor actually beefing up the hair shaft - it really adds thickness and volume to my fine limp hair. My curls love it too.

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

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.

Crap product
a year ago
I used the shades eq gloss and the gel product with it and my hair is HORRIBLE now. The color is cute but my gorgeous soft long hair is freaking straw now. I can’t even wear it down it’s so staticky. Redken ruined my hair
