Certified Trichologist Abbey Yung explained why despite often getting a bad rep, bond repair haircare is actually worth incorporating into your showering routine. ''This is a little controversial - but if I had to pick just one thing that I wish I started on Day 1 of my healthy hair journey it would be bond repair.

''I have seen so many comments not to use too much bond repair because it can cause protein overload, but that has always confused me. ''Because so many of the bond repair treatments that we have now don't even contain protein at all,'' the expert told her 1.4million followers on TikTok.
According to the blonde, if these viral haircare products do contain protein, it's usually in small doses that's ''not enough to even be considered a protein treatment''. Whatever your budget, the high street is full of a number of bond repair shampoos, conditioners, masks and serums - with Aldi and Superdrug also offering purse-friendly versions.
But if you don't want to be set back a fortune, it's worth checking out your local Primark, where cash-savvy shoppers can snap up the discount retailers PS... Bond Repair range for under a fiver. The affordable collection, which is thought to be a dupe of the posh Olaplex haircare range, includes a Pre-shampoo Treatment, Pro Bond Repair Shampoo, Pro Bond Repair Intensive Hair Mask, Pro Bond Repair Conditioner and Pro Bond Pro-Repair Serum.
