Overview
What deep repair mask involves
There's a real difference between conditioning and repairing. A conditioner coats the outside of the hair and improves how it feels until the next wash. A bond-building treatment works inside the strand, reconnecting the disulphide bonds that lightening, heat, and chemical processing break — and that change persists.
It's worth booking if your hair has become stretchy when wet, snaps when you comb it, or has gone rough and dull at the ends despite regular conditioning. Those are all signs of structural damage rather than dryness, and no amount of masque will fix them.
It works well as a standalone 25-minute appointment, and even better added onto a color service, where it goes on while the color develops and protects the hair during the most demanding part of the process. If you lighten your hair regularly, adding it every time is genuinely the highest-value thing you can do for its long-term condition.
Why choose us for this
What you get
Repairs, not coats
Reconnects broken bonds inside the strand. The improvement doesn't rinse away at the next wash.
Measurably stronger
Most noticeable on hair that snaps when combed wet — breakage drops off within a couple of treatments.
Best value as an add-on
Applied during color development, it protects the hair at the exact moment it's under most stress, for less than booking separately.
The appointment
How it works, step by step
Condition assessment
We check porosity and elasticity with a wet strand test to confirm bond repair is what your hair actually needs.
approx. 5 min
Application
The bond-building formula is worked through damp hair from mid-length to ends, concentrating where damage is worst.
approx. 5 min
Processing with heat
Left to process under gentle heat, which opens the cuticle enough for the formula to reach the cortex.
approx. 10 min
Rinse and seal
Rinsed thoroughly and sealed with a cool-water finish, then blow-dried.

Looking after it
Aftercare
- Use a heat protectant every single time — repaired bonds break again just as easily.
- Drop your straightener below 180°C; most damage comes from unnecessary heat.
- A weekly at-home bond masque extends the result considerably.
- For regularly lightened hair, add this to every color appointment.
- Microfibre towel or a cotton t-shirt rather than rubbing with terry towelling.
FAQ
Deep Repair Mask questions
A conditioner coats the outside of the hair and improves how it feels until the next wash. A bond-building treatment works inside the strand, reconnecting broken disulphide bonds — structural repair rather than surface smoothing, and it persists through washing.
Most people see a clear difference after one. Significant damage — regular bleaching, or years of daily straightening — responds best to a course of three or four spaced two weeks apart, then one every color appointment to maintain it.
Yes, and that's the best way to use it. It goes on while the color develops, so it protects the hair during the most demanding part of the process and doesn't add much to your total time in the chair.
No — nothing does. Once a strand has split, the only real fix is cutting it off. This treatment strengthens the hair so that fewer new splits form, which is the part that's actually preventable.
