Rebuilding Hair Bonds with K-18 and Olaplex After Blonde Highlights

Have you ever wondered how your hair colorist can lighten your hair multiple times without it turning into a complete disaster? It's all thanks to hair bonds! Hair bonds are the building blocks of our hair, and they are responsible for maintaining its strength and structure.

When we color our hair, we break down these bonds to allow the color to penetrate the hair shaft. However, this process can cause damage and breakage, leading to split ends and brittle hair. Luckily, there are now products available that can help rebuild these bonds and restore our hair's health and vitality.

Two popular products that are used at Boho Blonde Chicago hair salon in Lakeview East Chicago are K-18 and Olaplex. K-18 works by penetrating the hair shaft and repairing damaged polypeptide bonds from the inside out. It's designed to work with the hair's natural keratin structure, allowing it to rebuild bonds and restore the hair's strength and elasticity.

Olaplex works similarly by rebuilding broken dissulfide bonds in the hair, but it does so by creating new ones. Olaplex uses a patented active ingredient that seeks out and repairs broken bonds in the hair, leaving it feeling stronger and healthier.

At Boho Blonde, we use both K-18 and Olaplex in our color and highlight services, as well as during haircuts and treatments. We believe that healthy hair is the foundation for achieving the perfect balayage, highlights, blonde highlights, blonde balayage, and any other hair color or style. We strive to provide our clients with the best possible experience at our Lakeview East Chicago hair salon.

Whether you're looking to transform your hair with a new color or simply want to maintain its health and shine, K-18 and Olaplex can help. Book an appointment with our blonde salon today and let us show you how these products can work wonders for your hair!
