The Truths About Hair Rebonding
Hair rebonding, the latest hair trend among women, can lead to hair loss.
It gives you silky, super straight hair, the way the girls in hair commercials look, and the way Jennifer Lopez and Faye Wong look, but it can also leave you bald.
In one of the case study, a 14-year-old girl had big clumps of hair falling off in the shower a year after the process. Her hair started breaking 2 months after being rebounded. Then another case when a woman is suing her hairdresser for bald patches on her head after a similar treatment. Her scalp started stinging during the process itself and hair fell off in clumps shortly after.
Hair rebonding is a process where the chemical bonds in your hair are broken, rearranged and bonded back again permanently using very strong chemicals. It is one of the most damaging things you can do to your hair.
During rebonding, perming lotion is added to soften the hair and break down its bonds. After this is washed off, hair is placed between 2 metal plates of an electric styling device, which uses heat to pull the hair rod-straight. A neutralizer is then applied to reset the bonds and stabilize the hair.
Hair is irreversibly altered after the perming process. Chemically-treated hair shafts are weaker and fracture more easily. This can lead to hair loss.
Hair become fragile and has to be handled with extreme care after treatment. A natural reflex, like tucking your hair behind your ears or tying your hair in the first month after treatment, can be disaster.
The process can also cause damage and burns to the skin and scalp. For example hair can be damaged if the various chemicals are left on the hair for too long, or if ironing is done with an iron at higher than 180ºc.
Conventional methods of straightening hair use hair-straightening lotions, which result in dry, brittle, and split-ends prone hair. Rebonding gives you softer hair but higher risks because it uses more toxic chemicals.
Maintaining the rebonded look means continual touch-ups, at least, every 6 months. This puts you at further risk of hair loss, eventually, and prematurely, leaving your full head of hair nothing but a memory.

i rebounded my virgin hair about three years ago and it lasts a year. My hair started wavy and i decided to have it rebound back. I went to other saloon that offers me with a great prize of hair rebounding. I underwent the process with a very hurt and painful as the hairstylist did it harshly. After the process ended, i found a lot of my hair fell on the grown and it seems like i can make another head with that falling-off hair of mine. My scalp was burn and totally broken. My hair became fragile, unruly and looks like a frizz-ball. I was so ashamed of having that kinda hair and i went to the hair specialist to treat my hair back to the normal. Now, after three years i decided to rebound my hair back but have it done with my hair specialist.What do u think? Should i just shoot or knock it down?
December 7th, 2007 at 7:37 am
well ok, i just got my hair rebounded about 2 days ago and im going to wash ma hair tomorrow. Any suggestion for follow up after rebounding? i mean, some affordable solution?

None of you get this — you all mention that you got your hair rebonded, ask questions about it — but no one is waiting to get answers. Not a single answer above. Does no one do research before getting something so drastic done to their hair? Oh yeah, that’s what I’m doing… and keeping my wavy hair. Buyer beware.

Im gona get my hair rebonded, but have been hearing from many people that it damages hair n causes hair loss too. Im really confused, dnt know what to do coz im in great need of hair straightening. I mean, my hair have gone rough, i got split ends too. Moreover they can’t b styled, they r soo dry that im hating them. I was thinking if i rebond them i wud get a better luk. plzzz i need ur suggestion, lemme know whether i shud get them rebonded or not !!

I broke the rebonding tradition just awhile ago: I washed my hair on the same night! Nothing changed, still the same straight hair. Just remember to comb straight down, and that’s it! I think it’s because of the hair treatment after the rebonding. Made me sit there for 5 freaking hours!!
This is my first rebonding treatment, by the way. I’ve never done anything to my hair before this. Just loads of cash spent on various shampoos and conditioners. And trust me, Schwarzkopf is the best. Period.
January 7th, 2008 at 9:44 am
Rebonding its just temporary beauty. When you use the heat to break the sulphur bond in the hair, it can cause a bad damage. So thinking before you do it. maybe its not show the symptoms in a short time but its gonna show for a long time. thanks

i rebounded my hair one week back i want 2 knw hw 2 take care of hair 2 keep silky straight and healthy
January 14th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
i had my hair rebonded a year ago. Now i’m noticing my hair keeps on falling off everytime I shower. I stop doing hair rebonding and I process never to do it again! too much chemical will cause hair damage. try using NIOXIN cleanser. this shampoo helps my hair become thick.

i had my hair rebonded almost a year ago, and its still perfect. no hair loss, no burns, just straight hair (which is now starting to curl up again) and im thinking of getting it rebonded again soon. but i guess the only reason im so care free about it is becuase i had a trusted family member (who is also a professional hair stylist) do it for me. find someone you trust to do it.
January 27th, 2008 at 1:48 pm
i had my hair rebonded from lakme 3 weeks ago. I am losing a lot of hair everyday. i was told to use schwarzkopf shampoo and conditioner. is there anyone who can tell how to reduce the hair fall. I am afraid I will be bald soon. does nioxin really help ??
January 31st, 2008 at 11:31 pm
The first time i got my hair rebonded it was perfect. But when i went back for the second time, DAVID’s salon ruined my hair, i lost half of my hair almost gone bald. Never go to DAVID’s salon, they never did anything to help me with my damaged hair, considering the price i paid, paid them 7500 pesos and got damaged hair instead. So watch out for that salon. I used Mane n Tail shampoo and conditioner to restore my hair, and it helps., so all of you out there try Mane n Tail shampoo and conditioner it really helps.

Every Hair services is damaging! even shampooing! .That’s why we need the professional hairstylist to help either style or treatment.It is depending that you get the good professional or not! I done a lot of rebonding for my clients and I never had any problem at all.And it is very important that whenever you get hair rebonding service you need to know how to taking care your hair properly then you won’t get any problem.

I didn’t even know what hair rebonding was until i read this… I still don’t really know…O_O;
I choose to just manually straighten my hair with an iron and use lotion once I’m done. When it gets too dry and frizzy, I get an oil treatment. :3
I think it will save your hair in the long run although it may take a lot of work to do. Beauty on the outside isn’t worth being miserable on the inside.
February 10th, 2008 at 6:49 am
i had my hair straightened a year ago, i agree with someone else who said this: Schwarzkopf is the best. my frnds got it done by other brands.. not even CLOSE to the effect i got.. i used to have REALLY frizzy hair.. but even now, way longer than the salon said it would stay, my hair is really straight. i LOVE it.. only problem is… now my hair is STARTING to grow frizzy from the top front.. dunno wat to do!!! lol.. but if you HAVE to get it rebonded, follow the instructions they give you, it really helps. o! and no hair extra fall and hair is SHINY! and really easy to manage.. atleast it was till 1-2 months bak.
February 16th, 2008 at 12:48 am
I had my hair rebonded almost a year ago. Yes I had some break off, but not enough to stop me having it done again in a few weeks. My hair was so hard to handle before, long frizzy and just out of control. After I had it rebonded it was silky and smooth. Who is going to notice a couple of broken hairs when the majority of it looks great.

You have to be careful where you get your hair rebonded. Because there are plenty of salons where they would fix you with a nice price deal, but the outcome is often terrible.
Make sure you see a true professional, because then you can prevent hairloss. They would normally examine your hair structure and from there conclude how much of the chemicals they would apply to your hair.
I had my hair rebonded some two years ago and I don’t suffer from hair loss or dry unhealthy hair, but I know friends of mine who do.
April 7th, 2008 at 8:30 pm
I’m thinking about getting my hair rebonded
but I’ve been hearing that it damages your
hair. Where do I get my hair rebonded but not
damaged? Any great places?
April 8th, 2008 at 2:31 am
I had done rebinding twice. I already had the problem of hair fall. After rebonding it stopped. My hair are coming back to normal. I had got my last rebound done a year back. I am in a fix.Should i get my rebinding done again or it is better without it?
April 15th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
hello, rebonding is not always damaging, it depends on the brand of the treatment, i only use branded treatment to my clients, and in 7 years of doing this, i haven’t got a complaint but a lot of praises. and i always include a cellophane treatment after. im in manila,. u may contact me thru 09294438943.
April 18th, 2008 at 1:45 am
I hate my rebonded hair. I rebonded my fringe and now it is frizzy and dry. VERY dry. I thought it was supposed to be silky.. thats rubbish. Rebonding sucks. Any idea how to get back my old hair without leaving it to grow? As in re-bond the ions in my hair and then get back my old hair?
May 6th, 2008 at 9:29 am
I was thinking to get my hair rebonded this May. I got my hair rebonded last 2 years, but when I was surfing the internet I taught to check if rebonding is safe or will it damage my hair, then I saw this site. I’m so shocked for the possible effects of HAIR REBONDING!!!! AND now I’m not sure if I should get a rebond! But my hair still looks good after being rebonded two years ago. I’m only 16 years old and I was born with a natural long and straight haor but I jsut want to look better and my parents are willing to pay for my rebond expenses. Guess what! The one’s who are rebonding my hair are from China! and Chinese people do have great hairs!By the way I’m a Chinese-Filipino as well.

i had my hair rebonded last march 17,2008 at bhoks straightening salon at olongapo city and just after i washed it after two days, i saw my hair very dry so i come back to the salon where i had it and they retouched my hair but after i spend my 8 hours sitting there, my hair still very dry and i feel so very dissapointed so i told them to just cut my hair so the damaged would be cutted. but then after a few days, my hair still look so bad so i go back to the salon and told them to cut my hair up to my shoulder length, anyway my hair was long upto mu waist line before i get it rebonded but now my hair is just on my shoulder lenght. after one month i got my hair “hair reborn treatment” to other salon “reyes haircutters” and it was okay and now i just had a cellophane. but im still worried that my hair got damage again. i promise not to go back to bhoks salon anymore and will not rebond my hair anymore. waaahhhhh!!!! but “reyes haircutters” is great!
May 18th, 2008 at 11:36 am
Hi i m shaan from nasik…… i want to re-bound my hairs but i m really confused between brands which r best for re-bounding……some saloons say Loreal is the best n some say wella n others abt scrafkopf…….. plz suggest which brand to use??????
May 23rd, 2008 at 2:33 am
the best way if you want to go rebonding is to choose a professional one, coz i have already a lot of experience
when I was in the philippines I do rebonding a least 1’s a year
and have a good result, there is a lot of professional one like ricky reyes they know the amount of the chemical they use through the texture of your hair.
Actully I try one of the salon here in Doha for rebonding treatment as well, but its a bad experience for me coz i am experiencing hair loss and dry hair
May 28th, 2008 at 10:47 pm
I am canadian and had my har rebonded by some great filipino girls last week. So far it is AMAZING!! Feels great and looks perfect. I have very thick, coarse frizzy hair. Now I look great! What a fantastic product!

I have naturally weavy hair. I wanted to get my hair curled. To save few bucks, I went to a stylist who was cheaper. Stylist ruined my hair. My hair looked very damaged. So, 2 months after chemical treatment (for curling) I decided to go for rebonding as my self-esteem was going down and down. I got my hair rebonded in July 2006 from a hair saloon with 5 year history of doing rebonding. The result was perfectly straight and shiny hair – NO FRIZZ AT ALL. Problem started after 2 months when I noticed hair breakage at ends AND few grey hair. I got very worried. My stylist suggested regular trimming of ends to keep my hair healthy and also suggested use of lots of conditioner(as my hair was already damaged before rebonding) Then, I made it a rule to trim my ends after every three months and enjoyed perfect hair for a year and half. No hair breakage no more grey hair. My hair didn’t fall after rebonding. Now, my hair have completely grown and back to the same weavy texture without casuing any damage to my hair. So, moral of the story is that REBONDING is the best technique available at this point of time only that you should keep two points in your minds. Firstly, get it done by a professional who has a history of doing rebonding. Don’t become part of stylist’s learning curve to save few bucks. Beauty treatments are like medical treatments. Select your stylist carefully. After all, you’d be spending $ 250-300. This is how much it costs in my country, Secondly, remember that rebonded hair are vulnerable. Pamper them with oil treatment, conditioners and REALY GOOD shampoo (with special formula for chemically treated hair). Get them trimmed like you do with your natural hair (I am sure you guys already know for healthy hair trimming is very important). So anyone who experienced damage after rebonding is because their stylist didn’t do it properly or because they didn’t maintain their hair they way rebonded hair should be maintained. Rebonding rocks!!

which shampoo and conditioner should i use on my rebounded hair.
June 3rd, 2008 at 11:44 pm
I rebonded my hair a year ago at a salon called Ystilo here in the philippines.. it was very very nice and and people were very professional and knew exactly what to do with my type of hair ( thin strands but thick hair, frizzy, curly, wavy, wah!) and there were no side effects or damage…(just the price!) but i think it was worth it…having good or bad hair really makes all the difference when it comes to the way you look and feel about yourself..
but always remember you always take the risk..with anything that has chemicals in it…as for me… i think i’ll take that risk =]
June 4th, 2008 at 2:19 am
that’s why you have to ask a professional about your type of hair and see if it would work. with the right knowledge, none of those things would happen but you also need to have an experience hair stylist with these type of things.
i’m not racist but i dont let anyone except an asian experience stylist touch my hair becuz of many reasons. one is that i am asian and they understand wwhat they have to do with my type of hair, if i go to a normal sttylist in the US , they treat my hair like their hair type which is little strands and most dont consider it might be different than their hair. two becuz rebounding have been used in asia for quite amount of time before it wwas introduced to the north and they are more experience.
if you do it with caution , with the right stylist who you trust, with knowledge and with the right type of hair.
nothing this bad would happen but who knows
it might be true about how damage it could cause .but i did my studying, did you do your?
it’s just my point of view, dont go hatin on me
bye
June 7th, 2008 at 9:32 pm
Nonsense! My mom rebonded her hair for 5 yrs already and nothing happened! There’s some shampoo which she used which doesn’t make the hair fall out. And there is also hair rebonding shampoo to make the hair strong. Whoever typed this rubbish? Maybe the saloons not doing a good job? How are you so sure? If the chemical really caused damage to the hair, then would they take the chance to modify it? Nonsense! Eat your own wordS!
June 9th, 2008 at 3:42 am
hehe. i rebonded my hair 2 years ago and its still quite straight and i din have hair loss.
June 14th, 2008 at 4:08 am

June 18th, 2008 at 7:31 am
I’m in a quandary now.Should i trim my shoulder-length rebonded hair?I had my hair rebonded this january and it’s almost half a year.It’s starting to curl back and i swear it’s unbearable as it looks like a helmet now.I feel so embarassed.I’ve thought of growing back my long hair,but ppl said i’m not suitable as i look like an auntie.Will it curl if i cut my hair?
June 19th, 2008 at 6:44 am
im looking forward to rebond my hair this weekend.Frankly,im really surprised to find out that hair rebonding can cause this much of problem, as i thought it’ll be juz some hair dameges which are not apparent, and i think that hair loss is a common problem for us who’s having long hair.Never thought that after rebonding have to do so much of treatment as i feel like juz put some oil and moisturiser will do.Hmm,so confused now.Maybe rebonding juz isn’t suit lazy fellow like me.
rebond or no???????????
June 25th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
i had my hair rebonded last April. And, i am bot really happy about it. Yeah, it made my hair straight but it is dry and the ends are really bad. My question is… can i perm my hair eventhough i had it rebonded (maybe at least after 6 months).
June 30th, 2008 at 12:26 pm

July 1st, 2008 at 3:16 pm
i have done rebond for 4 times now, for the last 4 years. 1 per year. so far i still have healthy hair. take note – i did it in 4 different salons – and i’m still okay. The only issues i had were if the one doing the rebond has very heavy hands – they pull on the iron a little too hard. In cases like this, all you have to do is speak out and they’d be gentler.
Rebond for me is the best that ever happened in hair styling history. before, all i have is frizzy hair and asking for regular straightening just leaves my hair dry and stiff. Just be careful where you go to because I think the reason there are issues is because some salons use the regular straightening cream, mix it with some stuff and fake it as rebond. You would really have a problem that way.
I suggest using conditioner everyday after the process — and getting hot oil (even those apply-yourself-types) once in a while to maintain it (the hot oil part is not necessary).
tucking hair or tying them after the treatment doesn’t damage them, but if you do it right after the treatment, your hair will follow the curves created by the action. that’s all. nothing to worry about. this article is exaggerated.
July 2nd, 2008 at 6:38 am
To get this site, just when I’m seriously thinking of gettin a rebonding done… Man! I had got my hair straightened almost 10 years back, but that was horrible! I could feel the burning sensation in my sclap, & the lady was like it’s suppose to feel that way…. I washed my haiar as soon as I got home, & had chunks of hair out from the roots that very wash… :@ I had to face a very bad hair during my wedding, & hence chopped of my locks in 3 months…
Since now a days it’s more common here in Dubai, I’m thinking of gettin it done… But this time the stylist told me not that she can’t strainghten my hair, but I should rebond it… & that I’ll have to spend nearly 6 hours there. This time too I have a family function to attend…. So I’m confused whether to do it now or later, after the function???? I do have a straightening iron, but my hair curls up after a few hrs… any tips on how to prevent that?
Btw, what’s the difference between straightening & rebonding?
July 2nd, 2008 at 11:32 am
i just had my hair rebonded a year ago,.now i’m thinking if i should undergo this kind of treatment again,,its because last year may 2007 i brought my hair to ANGLES SALON.A salon near our house.,
they rebonded my hair for 8 HOURS!!!then they told me not to wet my hair for 3 days,,then ofcourse i followed..but after 3 days of sacrificing because my scalp is so itchy..,i really got shocked that it is still have waves. the i brought it back to that salon.,they told me that they will going to repeay the whole procedure again…but still after 3 days,,it just made my hair more curly and really unmanageable..after that i went to their salon again and i demand for my money back..and for those liar who just made my hair more ugly..i hope that you get karma!!!!so please think twice or even a million times before you trust a salon!!!!
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:23 am
last 2 days i got my hair rebonded.this time they straightened my hair using the hair dryer instead of the iron,AND the result was great!(they still use the same chemical for rebonding) my hair looks so natural, so soft and not so flat. plus the hairstylist said that it damages the hair lesser than the iron!
trust me!Sebastian (evokativ and potion9)is the best.period.
July 6th, 2008 at 1:50 am
I guess the only reason why, this person wrote this “topic” is
because the salon staff in really experience with the “Hair rebounding treatment” or either the product they were using was
really damaging and cheap. Rebounding is not to damage your hair but to make it straight, and to repair you hair, etc.
If you don’t want your hair to fall out and become bald, go to
a Professional or specialist that has experience with this
product for many years.
If your hair has been damaged from this product, there is many
ways to get your hair back to normal, such as “Oil treatment, reborn treatment, etc”
July 6th, 2008 at 9:16 am
Hi… I got my hair rebounded last week …& it looked excellent.. but only after 3days after the wash i realized that the coloured portion started to FRIZZ badly .. i wen back to the parlor & they suggested that i cut my hair in those frizzzzy areas n had some gloss coat applied on my hair.. but yet it looks frizzy.. i dont know wat to do now it looks thin & lifeless girls please dont ever rebound ur hair..
July 7th, 2008 at 10:31 pm
i had my hair rebonded last year and was not very happy with the results. my hair is thick, long and curly. it has too much volume so you can just imagine how big it looks if i don’t tie it up. i have had it relaxed for a couple of years and had straight manageable hair. the problem is that my hair grows so fast, so i need to have it straightened again after 6 months. i was okay with relaxing for like three years since i had a good stylist. however, i realized that my hair was starting to get immune to the chemicals used in relaxing. (if ever there is such a thing as hair being immune to it). it just was not as straight anymore. so i tried rebonding. i had high hopes for it because ive heard positive feedback from people. it was extremely straight for three days but it changed when i hit the shower. the waves came back, especially the part where i tie it with a scrunchie. some parts of my hair are still straight, though. someone told me not to tightly tie my hair anymore because it would cause more waves that are difficult to straighten. i wear it down most of the time. i just use clamps or chopsticks to pull it in a bun when it is really hot. i have been taking good care of my hair so i can have it rebonded again. this time i’m going to a professional stylist. i have a good feeling that i’ll get good results this time. i’m planing to have it done this week, so wish me luck you guys…
July 8th, 2008 at 1:12 pm

i’ve been rebonding my hair since 2006. the hair fall is there, but nothing too alarming. i do it once every 3 or 4 months cos my hair is really curly and it grows quite fast. so far, im liking my straight hair, although i wish it’s a little more smoother like before.
July 22nd, 2008 at 2:04 am
Hey,i have a virgin hair but a dry hair and damage hair……
today i went to a salon ,the price is quite cheap and free treatment…but i just afraid that it will damge and cause my hair to fall..sounds scary….and if didnt went for the 2nd rebonding….will it become more worst than the previous hair (virgin hair)? i am 18 this year
July 22nd, 2008 at 8:01 pm
well i got my hair rebonded a month ago and reading makes me a little uneasy….
i took precautions before getting it done though. i asked around: cousins, friends, and stuff. i had this oen cousin who got her hair rebonded in december and REYES haircutters. and she said its doing ok for her, no burining, and no balding. i got my hair done at reyes haircutters in san fernando and it came out good and straight. but its going back, so idk.
but no hair loss or burining, so i just have to maintain good care. any help for good care?
July 25th, 2008 at 1:52 am
im a guy
after read this article i tink i will keep my natural curls
boy was i so going to rebond it
July 27th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
I just got my hair straightened with L’Oreal Extenso about 1 month ago. I love it. I haven’t had any problems whatsoever. I had virign hair when i did it and it was so frizzy and it took me 1hr to straighten my hair with a straightening iron and get it to be as straight as this. (it wasn’t even guaranteed everytime I straightened it, I had to use ATON of product and do tiny sections very slowly). everyone’s hair is different, but if you’re going to listen to a few people out of the thousands that get this done, you might be missing out on the best hair decision you ever made.
July 29th, 2008 at 8:30 am
when i read this topic i got a little scared for my hair..i plan to have a hair rebounding this august,but im still scared what are the effects after the treatment..
August 1st, 2008 at 11:24 am
first of all its rebonded (past tense)rebounded is not even the correct verb.
August 6th, 2008 at 8:31 am
usually long hair gets rebonding for better look so what about short hair? what do u think?
August 11th, 2008 at 4:27 am
Hi, I’m about to get my hair rebonded day after tomorrow. But i am also gettin hair extensions 3 days after this. Is this a bad idea??????
August 14th, 2008 at 2:37 pm
im getting my hair rebonded hopefull in a couple of weeks.
but having read this article, im kindof scared.
but from friends who experienced hair rebonding&& commetns too,
i think hair rebonding depends on your hair stylist.
just make sure that you can TRUST your srylist, && also has to be experienced =]

i can’t even remember how many times i’ve rebonded my hair, i think at least 5 times since 2003. I’m gonna get it done again tmr. I haven’t experienced a single problem mentioned in this article. No hair loss, bald patches, burning (burning?? lol), etc. Actually it kinda depends on the quality of the rebonding and what type of hair you have. Its better if you get it done at a reputable salon, of course you will have to pay more. And if your hair is naturally fine(even though its curly/wavy), the end results will be much better than if u have naturally rough or thick hair.

If anyone wants to do rebonding, pls read below. Its real.
My niece who had wavy thick long hair like mine, had it rebonded and it looked gorgeous. When I visited her in Singapore I decided to do the same and I went to the same salon in Sembawang, below her flat. I was so excited thinking all my blow drying and styling days were over.
Alas! Horrors! Seeing is believeing. I still have the pics. While rebonding, my hair fell out in clumps in 2-3 patches. If this was terrible, wait. Once the lengthy process was done, I sense something wasn’t right. My hair seemed unusually rigid and hard. As I went home, everyone stared at me as if I looked like a moron. My hair looked dry hard and brittle and burnt a strange orangey color. The ends were frizzy. I couldnt wait for the three days hoping it would change once I washed it off. To my disgust, they became worse, hard like crispy friend noodles or and color of burnt toast. Everyone joked and laughed calling me Ah Meng, the orang utan in Singapore zoo. They had warned me not to do it. I went back to the salon asking why mine didnt turn out like my niece but they turn away not listening saying my hair was not virgin hair, it was processed hair, with years of chemical dyes etcetera…I was so hurt I cried. Not only did I spend S$200 plus. My lovely thick wavy healthy hair was dead. The moment I got back home to Abu Dhabi, my hairdresser was so crossed at me for damaging my hair. The only thing left to do was to chop it all off into a very short boy cut and keep a low profile and wait till my new hair grew back.
Now I shiver to think rebonding ever works, if it does it is sheer luck or really professional salon. I wish I could rememeber the name of the salon ( I remember the place) so I could warn all of you not to go there.
August 31st, 2008 at 11:04 pm
Oh Samsam…that was so bad!!And thanks a lot to you for sharing this information. All you people please read this article before going for any of the rebonding processes. Also those saloon ppl should have told you that your hair were processed and they should have warned before doing that rebondig process on ur hair..u can sue them for that…and here’s hoping that your nice original hair grow back faster again:-)

Hi People,
I ahd my hair rebonded only 5 ays ago, and am already facing a lot of problems. I trusted my stylist perfectly, but after what happened, I swear never to do anything to my hair anymore.
I asked her if it was okay for me to have my hair colored after rebonding. She gave me a full assurance that it would be fine, and we did proceed to doing so. A day later, the ends of my hair tunred very frizzy, and when I accidently had it a little wet and was trying to dry it with my towel, my hair broke very very easily. I was so terrified. the 3rd day when I could actually wash my hair and did so, it turned back to being normal – as in not as smooth. It’s very very dry, damaged, frizzy and non-manageble. I am very upset about the state of my hair right now knowing that it’s been only 5 days that I made such a dumb decision. I have never get problems with dandruff, but now, even when i touch my hair a little bit, i have dandruff falling onto my shoulders. It’s so frustrating!!!
Those of you who are thinking of doing rebonding, pls think again about your decision. There are many other ways to make your hair silky and smooth although it might be a little time consumming. But healthy hair is better than nothing.

September 15th, 2008 at 6:19 am
hey folks..relax..
I’ve got my hair rebonded twice..with excellent results.. i did get some hairfall during rainy season. but i had that before rebonding also. so no harm with it. even after 14 months since my last rebonding, my hair still look great. only the new growth that has come is rough and curly.. so im planning to get rebonding done the third time. a gap of an year between two rebonding sessions is essentials. and a few precautions. i use olive oil to massage my scalp for five minutes every sunday. leave on for two hours and wash with shampoo prescribed by my hair dresser. i take hair spa almost every month. thats all. go ahead. get beautiful hair.only make sure you get it done by skilled and reputed hairdresser. good wishes.
September 18th, 2008 at 3:36 am
i’ve got my rebounding done 3 days back…any suggestions for a gud shampoo and conditioner????????????shiseido/goldwell/sebastian/loreal??
September 21st, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Loreal is the best. I have tried products of a few other brands too. But, surely Loreal is the best.
September 24th, 2008 at 7:31 am
Ok ive had my hair rebonded twice my advice to everyone is dont do it..its not worth it in the long run or the risks you take for the money you pay. I had it done once and the reslt were amazing.
Second time my new roots are starting to grow frizzy ! ! ! so i cant cut my hair or anything coz the new roots are coming out burnt, has anyone else experienced this ????
September 24th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
i am going to get my hair rebonded!!!!!!!!!
no matter what half the websites say!! i guess it all depends on where u get it done right??? ad how u take care after it!!
elvive – the loreal product is great!! use it..and oil ur hair regularly…mix curd and egg and apply to the scalp and then wash with wotever shampoo u use! its great for nourishing the hair..also get deep conditioning frm a saloon!!!

i had several hair rebonds done, 6 to 7 up to a year apart and none of those side effects had happened. my advise is to go to a person who has been trained to do it and the only people i know are the filipinos. hanna from t’s salon in waipahu (if you’re from hawaii) is the person i would recommend.
October 19th, 2008 at 12:06 pm
hi!just had my hair rebonded at reyes haircutters.actually, this is my second time with them.i did not have any prob last time, and i guess because they are using milder products, they call it milk rebonding.
my advise is just to go to a reputable salon to have your hair rebonding.remember our hair is our crowning glory.
October 21st, 2008 at 5:04 am
omg..this is like so scary..
i’m planning to straighten my hair next month..
my parents said its ok but if i use my own money..
im really thinking hard whether to do it now after reading ur comments..

October 23rd, 2008 at 2:49 am
is rebounding safe in early pragnancy,cz like few aroma tharapies which can give u problem in pragnancy.i’m worried cz i want 2 have rebounded hair
October 23rd, 2008 at 8:12 am
To those who goes to cheap salons with super affordable price that advertise something like 999rebonding any length — beware! I interviewed a stylist who use to create chemicals for rebonding he told me that cheap rebonding actually uses liquid sosa and aircon cleaner chemicals and just uses pineapple juice to balance the smell and the strength of the chemical. These chemicals can damage your hair so if you really want rebonding save up your maoney and just go to reputable salons.
October 25th, 2008 at 2:10 pm
I wanna get my hair rebonmded,too confused regarding its mantainance ! What to do plz help.

October 27th, 2008 at 3:33 am
I had several hair treatments since I was in College. First, I had it “relaxed”. It was nice, really nice. Adding the fact that I have long hair. But the second and third time (maybe 6mos to 1year intervals) I went to a hair salon (the same salon I went before) and it did not turned out as I’ve expected. It was kind of wire-looking. Then my boyfriend suggested to have my hair be rebonded by her high school teacher. She was a cosmetology teacher and attended seminars regarding beauty care. The treatment turned out nice. No pain or itchiness. Even while on the process of rebonding, I did not feel any irritations, even on my skin. I returned to their house just last Saturday for another rebonding (after 6mos). And the result is still remarkably beautiful! I still have healthy and thick hair.
Maybe those salons you went to use “harmful” chemicals and also are not really rebonding solutions. Cause if they are, they should not hurt or sting even your skin. My, let’s say, hairdresser, even applies the solution on my hair with her bare hands.
October 27th, 2008 at 3:37 am
I forgot to mention that my first rebond was the “normal” type then what she gave me last Saturday was a “milk” rebond.. Haha.. nice isn’t it???
October 29th, 2008 at 9:47 am
i’ve made my hair rebonded once,,,and it was great…it looked so natural and when they stylists wer rebonding me i didnt feel anyhurt at all…the chemicals were kinda minthy but it doesnt hurt….at first they were wearing gloves but afterward they removed it..it shouldnt suppose to hurt your scalp…the salon was kind of expensive but it is so worth it..and the rebonded hair was permanent…now my hair is curly again because my hair grew longer but the rebonded hair stayed straight….the salon is “David’s salon” but it was in the philippines im just not sure if there’s one in other countries
October 30th, 2008 at 10:44 am
I had my hair rebonded at WOW salon in boni, madaluyong..1 month ago..the result is not good..they have damaged my hair,,i went to complain but they would just offer a 200 peso hair spa treatment..that salon sucks..
November 2nd, 2008 at 8:49 am
wtf .. im so not gonna rebond my hair .
November 6th, 2008 at 1:33 am
I had my hair rebonded 6 months ago. During the rebonding, I felt that my head was burning and thought that my brain cells were dying. But anyways, I have straight hair now, but every time I comb my hair, at least 15 strands of hair gets stuck on my comb. AT LEAST 15. I think I’m going bald.
November 12th, 2008 at 11:34 pm
hey im 15 year old gal..n im thnkng 2 get ma hairs rebounded..!plzzzz tell me shuld i go for rebonding if yes…den which rebonding product should i use???
November 16th, 2008 at 1:28 pm
I had very thick n curly hair, but I went for straightening with creams. IT made them really bad and rough. I went to HABIBS saloon at sec 17 chd and was advised not to use any chemical again and just to oil hair regularly to make them strong. I am having a head massage with mustard oil daily for last 1 month. NOW, can I go for hair rebonding. My hair are still less than 6 inches in length. Please suggest. I always wanted light, straight, silky and shiny hair.. What should be the expenses for that, and where in chandigarh/panchkula, I can get them rebonded????????
November 20th, 2008 at 4:06 am
I have also experienced a rebonding disaster like many of you. Its been just a week and the ends are really frizzy. Cna anyone advice how long it took your hair to come back to it natural state? Would it ever be the same again?
November 21st, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Rebonding causes obvious and visible dents at the regrowth. I got my hair rebonded about 6 months ago and was not happy with it coz you can see the dents all along your hair part, which doesn’t look nice at all. Also there was considerable hair loss and it is difficult to style. So I don’t recommend it
November 23rd, 2008 at 7:54 pm

December 3rd, 2008 at 1:13 pm
Hey frendz, the re-bonding process seems to be scary and weird. Of course, initially the hair looks outstanding and eqaully closer to any other commerical gals! However the pain and the risk involved in breaking the bond is highly pathetic. So my sincere advise to u all is, plzz for heaven sake dont get into the fantasy of rebonding ur hair as it is hard to get back ur natural gift given to u.
December 7th, 2008 at 2:08 am
Can any 1 tell….. Which place(salon) is the best in chandigarh/panchkula to get hair rebonding? my hair lenght is abt 5 inches. What are the expenses to maintain the rebonded hair…
December 10th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
hey..i got my hair rebonded last year in july but in an attempt to save my money,i got it done from d stupid salon called CLEOPATRA. i took care but as soon as i washed it,my hair became the same..it damn hurt me. I complained to them and they gave me a rebonding touchup which did not work too..They even advised me to get my hair colored just within a week..god knows why i trusted them..it very much ruined my hair But now i have talked to a hairstylist of a reputed salon called LOREAL TRESS LOUNGE and he has assured me good results this time..ofcourse im scared but i have no choice. i dont like my hair this way. its dry,frizzy and rough but as i dont have any problem of hairfall or dandruff,im gonna take the risk..n i have faith on these guys now FOR THOSE WHO ARE PLANNING TO GO FOR IT, DO GET IT DONE..YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH YOURSELF BUT BE PREPARED TO PAY.

January 1st, 2009 at 11:01 pm
Hello, there!
I’m from the Philippines. I’ve got a serious problem here. Last week, I did apply the Hortaleza product to rebond my hair at home. I followed every bit of instruction to make sure that I could never be wrong.
But, unfortunately after a few hours of the application, I was experiencing too much hair loss. I couldn’t comb my hair. In fact, I couldn’t even rinse it.
It was obvious that my hair was damaged. It has been a week and my hair is still non-stop falling, getting thinner and thinner. My scalp is itchy too. I couldn’t even wash it because I fear of lossing pieces.
Now, I am seeking serious medical treatment and advice.
What shall I do?
Can anyone help me with my dilemma?
Any help would be greatly appreciated…
January 3rd, 2009 at 4:23 am
all i can say is:
cheng is the best rebonder of all time..!
try to check her saloon here at bulacan..
January 6th, 2009 at 7:13 am
Michelle that’s really scary it will be best if you consult a doctor. What kind of product in Hortaleza did you use exactly? its complicated to rebond your hair yourself without any help of a hairstylist.
Last year i got my hair rebonded by someone who worked at a known hair salon here in Phils. She did it in our house and it turns out great, until now my hair is still straight (i have wavy hair before). Since then i’ve never been to any hairstylist but her. She does all the hotoil treatment and my haircuts here in our house since then. I let her take care of my hair.
January 9th, 2009 at 4:11 am
i am a professional marketing person. there is many rebonding products but namely. i suggest schwarzkopf rebonding is great.
January 9th, 2009 at 12:04 pm
i just had cellophane wax treatment from reyes cutters,im not satified the results and in wondering if they really use l’oreal in my hair,which i choose..its becoz i never seen the container..i think reyes cutters should really show the products with the containe,before applying it..for clients satifaction..mga salon kasi ngayon parang mga manloloko,kahit sikat pa ang name nila.
January 18th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
I just had my rebonding wd cellophane last week from salon in motion in angeles..my hair turns straight and flat for three days but after I washed it, my hair turns out dry and wavy..I think the stylist did not do his job as he promised. the cellophane is also fake because after I washed it I did not see any stain of the color in my towel or while washing it. I returned to them but they told me that they will retouch my hair after a week because the chemical is still there. pls advice me do i need to return so they can fix my hair? after reading this statement i became afraid now..pls
January 22nd, 2009 at 12:37 am
not everyone will have the same outcome… it all depends on the individual’s hair condition… I got my hair rebounded for the first time when I was 15… I went with 3 other friends and all of us had different outcomes… One of my friend’s hair came out awesome while my other friend’s hair came out worse than before… From then on, I’ve gotten my hair rebounded once a year or once in two years and I still have a full head of hair… I also have friends who have their hair rebounded once or twice a year and they also still have a full head of hair… I got my hair rebounded yesterday at Reds salon in Plaza Singapura and they’ve done an amazing job!! they’re also very nice and professional, especially the dude who did my hair(not only did he do an amazing job on cutting my hair, but he was cute as well)… Hair rebonding is fine, but just make sure you go to a prestigious hair salon this way they can tell you what treatment is more suitable for you and do a good job because they have their reputation to keep… it may be costlier but hey, wouldn’t you rather spend more money and have amazing hair or spend less money and have irreversable damages done to ur hair?? you can earn back your money but you can’t get your original hair back…
January 22nd, 2009 at 10:43 am
gud day everyone!!!
i just drop by to this site coz i want to read some articles abt hair bonding…I was so amazed to hear some “bad hair stories” posted. I would like to share mine…
I got my hair rebonded last july 2008 from the salon i trusted “HEADLINERS” here in Batangas.First,i only want “hair relax w/ cellophane” because it already gives my hair “rebond look” at a cost of 750PHP.And i had it done for almost 4x,from 2004-2007(dec.). Since i got natural straight hair, it also becomes wavy when i put in a pony tail and do some hairstyles. I cut my hair short last summer 2008,and dye it and i got a problem when it reaches my shoulder coz it “flies away”…
When i go to salon, they dont to relax my hair becaus or its hair dye.. so i decided to rebond for the first time…
i didnt wash it for the first 3days(as they instructed) and they are selling “KERATIN” conditioner after shampoo…
I got a very noticing, amazing, hair!!! and im proud to tell that my hair was rebonded. Even my cousins, aunties, and my mom also want it…I use Citre Shine Shampoo ang Conditioner.
But on the first 4months, i noticed some hair fall during bath. But it stopped afterwards and i shift to Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner.
Then yesterday, i went to the salon for another hair rebond but they refused to do so. They said that I is still got straight , shiny hair and I dont need another treatment even its been 6mos. ago!
January 22nd, 2009 at 11:20 am
I just want to comment to some post…
Yes, I believe that not all salon are telling the truth abt the brand or chemicals that will put in your hair. That’s why, its really important to go to reputable and trusted salon. Make sure to make a background check of any history of the saloon.
I agree that “Reyes HC” is not a good salon. Especially their branch here…I almost tried 5 services they offered but nothing really happened to my hair(even the very basic hair trim is not a good one). They even destroyed my friend’s hair when she got her hair rebonded.
We must also know the fact that “every BODY is UNIQUE” in all aspects of being a human.It doesn’t garranty that if its works good on me it will also works for them. In some case like my sister in law. She got her hair rebonded May 2008(in same salon), she has a wave / curly hair.It turns out straight and shiny. She repeated it 3x from May-September 2008… Even we both have good outcomes,it differs in terms of number of treatment.
Another thing…Never do it yourself!!! Some hair products indicates “for professional use only”, so be it…Dont you think some hair professional did mistakes at salon…so as you!Especially if its not branded or can easily bought to any “cosmetics stores”.I think hot oil treatment is the safest hair treatment to do at home.
Pregnant woman can not undergo hair rebonding.Even hair coloring and relax. Because of the strong chemicals that can be inhaled and damaged to skin. As much as possible, pregnant woman are not advised to go to salon.
January 23rd, 2009 at 4:49 am
Just this afternoon, i was about to go to a salon to have my hair rebonded for 3,500 pesos. but when i looked at my hair, i said im gonna do it tomorrow coz it looks straight and shiny today.(sometimes it gets really dry and wavy). but after reading this article and the badcomments about it, i got scared. at first, i thought that the difference of hair relax and hair rebond is that in hair rebond(since its expensive), you’ll have to do it just once and your hair will be straight forever. but as i read the comments, i realized that you have to repeat it again which would mean more cost. what shall i do? my hair is not curly. its just wavy. but i want a straight hair. what shall i do to have it without damaging it?
January 23rd, 2009 at 4:51 am
by the way, im from cebu, philippines. and im still a student. what salon will you recommend that i go to to have a straight hair without having to spend much?
January 24th, 2009 at 11:34 pm
I got my hair rebonded about 7 months ago.
I was dumb enough to undergo the process without doing my research. My aunt and my mom’s best friend rebonded their hair and it looked totally fine. They showed no symptoms of falling hair and what not.
Like I said before, I had my hair rebonded some months ago, and like my relative, I am seeing no signs of loss of hair. The process did not burn at all, and I found parts of it relaxing.
After reading this article, I’m scared of what might result from this. I still want to keep my hair intact.
So the question I was wondering is:
Are there some people who have done this and come up with reasonable results (with their hair still on their scalps, etc.)?
And if I do happen to be one of the people to experience this issue, is there any products I could use to restore my normal hair?
Thank you in advance!
January 31st, 2009 at 8:06 am
my hair was rebonded 4days ago my hair becomes worst gosh my hair is beautiful before rather than now.. its looks like a rubber when its wet and looks like kinky when dry.. this is the worst…i wish i never did to my hair now I’m always stress i want to cut my hair very short and wear wig what i can do to make my hair like before especially my hair was colored almost 2months ago before rebonding.. any suggestion? please make any suggestion email me @ trust_triumph@yahoo.com to anyone concern thanks
February 2nd, 2009 at 4:25 am
i’ve been rebonded my hair 2 years ago and that is my 1st time. What you need when you don’t have any experience about it is you must done it by a professional. Then, i’ve got permanent straight hair until i cut the hair because it became long.My stylish hair said don’t wash your hair before 1 week after you rebonded and please be careful about your hair. Other than that, i used specialize shampoo for rebonded although it quite expensive and it really good.
February 5th, 2009 at 2:23 am
i got my 3rd hair rebonded last year and still nice, pretty shiny straight hair, i treated my hair alone by using coconut milk soaked for an hour and washed thoroughly, shampoo and conditiner…the best thing make it more lovely is the vinegar for final rinsing..when my hair dry off i apply a little virgin coconut oil on my baby little curly hair on my forehead to look more neat (have no bangs)…my hair is long reaches my butt…
i can say i don’t have any complain about hair rebonding coz it is depend to a person as well how she manage and treat her hair…
February 7th, 2009 at 4:29 am
im planning to have my hair rebond but after reading all of this im so really scared!!!! coz i have long but thin hair… its too risky for me at the same time it is more expensive if il go for nothing (i mean if i have kinky and damage hair after being rebonded)waisting of money and time…maybe ill go for cellophane maybe it is safer/lesser damage hair than rebonding…
you should think many times before you go under this treatment…
and as they say research some professionals hairstylish…. and as far as i know before rebonding your hair, you must not have any hair color/relax/straightening or other hair treatments for the past 6mo.-1 year because it can cause reactions on your hair (burn,brittle,rough or frizzy hair after rebond) coz of the chemicals combined. dont go for trial and error and dont take risk….
hope this will help you guys
February 11th, 2009 at 2:30 am

February 11th, 2009 at 2:33 am
suggest me if i go 4 rebounding will it help me n wat care cn be taken at home also normally how does it costs?
February 11th, 2009 at 6:28 am
I had my hair rebonding a year ago because i had really curly and thick hair.
After rebonding, i was really pleased with the results because my hair was long, straight and silky.
The only problem was, the hair rebonding chemicals used on my head caused me alot of irrations and i also felt a burning sensation all over my scalp.
Because i couldn’t handle the ich, i started scratching my hair and this caused me to damage my own scalp without realising. Luckily the damage is not that serious but even now, the hair line on the front of my forehead looks like its been slightly burned and it’s also really dry. On a warm day, my head starts to ich alot too. I also have less hair now unfortunately.
So my recommedations is, stick to the heat straightening device. Otherwise, make sure that you know your hair stylist very well to make sure that they will treat your hair and scalp with the most absolute caution. Otherwise, you’ll end up regretting.

is hair rebonding good for a four months pregnant woman like me?
March 18th, 2009 at 10:57 pm
hi,
just want to give input how to take good care of your rebonded hair….first you need to have a weekly hot oil treatment using virgin coconut oil, next use a hair gloss to protect it shaft,shampoo your hair every other day only…use hair treatment conditioners (Matrix Biolage is the best)……and lastly use only one kind of rebonding cream ask your hairdresser what product he is using so that you would know and use the same product everytime you get your hair rebonded……if its extenso then use only extenso…never mix products because it has a chemical reaction…your hair will become frizzy…use products that are branded even though its a little bit expensive…

wow ! after reading all the comments i am even more scared and confused than before ! looks like there is NO guarantee as to what may or may not happen after a hair rebonding ! like many others, i also want to get hair rebonding done for my dry n frizzy hair and i just don’t know where to go n what to do…i live in india and was researching information on what are the ‘best’ products or ‘best’ salons here, even if they may cost a bit more …useful info so far ??…a ) go to a reputed parlour ,b ) schwarzkopf has some votes as does matrix biolage c) u gotta take the risk cos everything ‘depends on ur hair type’
So all the best to me and my kinda ppl out dere ! dish out the money n take the plunge ? or…keep ur original hair and be happy u have them at least ….geez !!!I STILL DON’T KNOW !1 HELP !!!!
March 24th, 2009 at 1:43 pm
hi,
you better keep your natural hair if you don’t want to loose the natural healthiness of it, just buy a professional hair blower and iron if you want your hair straight once a while. I got my hair rebonded last year (Mar.2008) and it was not cheap eh it cost me almost 20000 pesos ($500 Cad.)
I went to a “”PROFESSIONAL HAIR DRESSER daw” but she just ruined my hair, i was devastated even my husband, my hair starts breaking and falling , i even got a bald patch, (scary) she used the best branded product thats why i spent that much money. “NEVER AGAIN” better use my professional iron(CHI) and blower (DANNYCO) if i want my hair straight
and its not funny, after this you have to do this, do that, use this, blah blah…… extra couples of dollars to spend
be happy with your natural hair ladies because once you put chemical on your hair it wont be the same again, am glad that my hair is getting back to normal now, shiny and healthy
ciao
March 25th, 2009 at 1:56 am
i had written here on march 22..n now here i am again….allright here\\\’s the thing….first i did a lottttt of reading online…then i went to 4 different salons all around the city and enquired EVERYTHING about hair smoothening, rebonding , and Strait therapy from schwarzkopf …these r like the BEST salons and they seemed to be recommending either l\\\’oreal or schwarzkopf treatments….apparently rebonding is the most damaging…and is best avoided…anywayz, i requested for some kinda guarantee which they refused, or strand test at least and only 1 salon agreed for it….they did 10 mins application of Wella cream to some strands of my hair ,it had curled at the bottom. the person there says no prob cos those hair were damages ones (gosh ! rolls eyes ) and 2 hrs later those same hair died and fell off….they looked BURNT !! I was shocked !! they wanted me to pay something around Rs. 6,500 to Rs. 10,000 to get my hair ROYALLY BURNT !!! no wayzz am i gonna go for rebonding or any other chemical treatment now !! I happen to love my hair n i wanna keep them ! my hair looks gr8 even now except that they are not straight (they are wavy)…so for that i am gonna buy me a straightening iron which will cost me lesser, and NOT damage my hair, and not put em at risk of any kind either….so dats my decision ppl….now if anybody knows which iron is the best to buy ( available in india pls ) then i\\\’ll go get it asap ! thnxxx…p.s. i am gonna get a hair spa today to celebrate my hair being well and alive n still on my head ! cheers !!
March 25th, 2009 at 11:00 am

dunno what to do.. my hair is naturally straight and soft.. but i want it to look shinny and nice.. what should i do? is rebounding really damage hair????
April 3rd, 2009 at 7:43 pm
I just got my hair rebonded yesterday and it really is an amazing result! Before my hair was super curly, dry, and frizzy and now it’s moisterized and silky smooth.
But I highly suggest that you do not do this process manually but by a professional who has a lot of experience with it (Mine has been doing it for over 7 years). and rememeber, this process is also very expensive..so if you get an offer thats really hard to believe it will leave you with terrible results. Also, before starting have your salonist look at your hair and see what products are best. I mean, I have mixed (racial) hair so my salonist switched to a set of products especially for my type of hair. It’s a great process but make sure you get it done at the right place! good luck everyone!~
April 6th, 2009 at 1:28 am
I was thinking of rebonding my hair but after such coments I dn think I should go for it, could u please suggest me If I could go for a better treatment of hair as it is too dry n damaged.
April 17th, 2009 at 3:14 am
hi guyz! i was just wondering if i will be going to rebond my hair or not because im afraid if what will be the outcome result if it will be shiney or it might be worsen my hair,,,oh it totally sucks! OMG,,i think i should think a million times ohh please help me!! I had my hair straightened 3x,, during the first time it was so great,,,i love it very much but then the second time around i went through a stupid salon which led my hair into dull,, frizzy and very very dry hair!!! and lastly after a year i went through freshair salon it sounds good but i think not that good enough because whenever i comb my hair it is very very dry can’t comb it coz i had so much thick hair!!
Until now i planned to have my hair rebonded for i will be having a vacation somewhere in the european countries because i just wanted to look great especially in my hair but then now i am a little bit confused when i read this article about this and i was a little bit hesitant to have it rebonded,, Last month i am very much sure that i will be having my hair rebonded bec i had visited a salon which is cheaper that would only cost 15OO hair rebonded any length so i was so happy to heard that since i had a long hair,,,But then Luckily i had searched this article and found out that it could take you to danger i am really really afraid and i think i still want to have my hair rebonded but i think i will rather go to Ricky Reyes or watever
So guys please help me
April 17th, 2009 at 11:57 pm
i have my hair rebonded every year ,,, and this year is my third time …. it did not give me much damage …. i think it all depends on how it has been done … and how you take care of it …. when i had my 2nd rebond … i had it colored after a month and it’s still good …
April 18th, 2009 at 8:37 am
i have my hair rebond every 6 months…
is it bad??? and im only 13years old…..
plzz… give me an answer…
April 18th, 2009 at 9:42 pm
I hav naturally curly hair. i straightened my hair 6 months back..and the results were great. They used schwarzkopf. Now its time for rebonding as my hair has grown about 3 inches and it looks odd, with some hair curly and some silky-straight. my stylist has adviced to rebond only after leaving a minimum of 6 months in between each session and i’m just waiting.
its better to be patient when you’re gonna use such harsh chemicals on your hair…

i would highly recommend soiree salon for rebonding. they charge 3500 to 5000 for schwarzkopf strait therapy. let them know if you have a tight budget, they’ll suggest alternatives na lower ung rpice but still use a very nice product. i had my hair rebonded there and paid 4250 for medium length hair. then i brought my secretary there and she paid almost half price of what i paid using a difd product. the result was really nice, it looks natural.
April 20th, 2009 at 1:49 am
listen gals,
the problem of falling hair, baldness and scalp sensitivity happen only when they touch the chemicals to the scalps.ALWAYS GET IT DONE FROM BEST WELL KNOWN SALOON AND ASK THEM NOT TO TOUCH THE CHEMICAL TO THE ROOTS.. after rebonding, oil your hair eqularly, apply serum after the wash.. use wood comb and always comb ure lower hair first then towards the scalp..
remember always for big experiments like these, dont compromise on cost.. always go to the well known palour..:)
drink lots of water n milk.. take protein tablets for hair (hair vit)..
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:22 am
its really true about rebonding?because i didnt experienced it ….after i read all other comments better i will not proceed to rebonding
April 23rd, 2009 at 10:56 pm
I got a hair rebond and I look fabulous on it. At first I was wary but it turned out great.
The thing is go to a professional. I heard that there are some parlors who offer cheap rebond prices because they mix their chemicals with muriatic acid and liquid sosa.
Some claims it’s rebond but only hair relax with the questionable ingredients on it that’s why hair turns out frizzy after a few days.
April 25th, 2009 at 1:30 am
My advice to people who are crazy about rebonding hair, well. it is not for everybody, you have to make sure you have tough scalp and hair. because the chemicals tends to either burn your scalp or damage your hair so bad, (you would wish million times that you could undo it). so thats the first thing you have to know.
Secondly, dont go to salons or hair dressers that doesnt have clue. ask questions, let them know your concern and go fromthere.
Third. do you really need to alter your natural hair? i know , iknow, i would. because i have long, frizzy, and sort of wavy hair. i want it tamed. unfortunately, split ends and dryness is part of the process of having very straight hair and also falling hairs. just take good care of your hair after the treatment, make sure you always have oil to minimize split ends and use conditioner to help your hair recovered from the chemical assault. hope this help. ciao.

I GOT MY REBONDED 2 YEARS AGO AND NOW I’M BALD
May 4th, 2009 at 2:38 am
plz tell me true hair rebounding is safe or not?
May 5th, 2009 at 11:52 am
there is a really great risk in rebonding. When you want your hair to be rebonded, you should have at least have a good stylist. I have been rebonding my hair for three years for the past 2 years, I am satisfied with the service and my hair really looks shiny and straight. My rebonded hair lasted for more than one year for the two rebond. For my last rebond I decided to try this new asian salon.(marami kasi nagtry dito) but unluckily I was not satisfied with the rebond.After 3 days I came back to their branch because I feel that it was not properly rebonded.They said that they only rebonded the upper portion of my hair because they told me that the lower portion of my hair was already rebonded before and it is damage.I feel so terrible because they should have told me first that they will not put some medicine on the lower part of my hair so at least they could have given me the option if Im gonna pursue my rebond session with them and also upon knowing that I should have not waste 5k and a lot of my time for hair rebonding. Aside from that my last rebond before that was more than one year ago and I did not do or put anything to my hair.My friends also rebonded their hair and all of us are not satisfied with the service and 75% of us returned because not all our hair is rebonded. We promised to ourselves not to return with that salon again.And we will return nalng dun sa dati na maning hairstylist.
May 6th, 2009 at 12:00 am
well..hi guyss
i’m only 13 and i’ve been rebonding my hair every 6 months(this is my 4th time) my hair is really kinky and my hair now is being curly again….well now, i wanted to have my hair relaxed..is it fine if relax my hair coz i dont want to have my hair rebonded again coz i dont want to damage it further…….
so is it fine to have my hair relaxed?(my hair had been rebonded since january so my hair now is 5 months rebonded) plzzzz i nid some suggestions if i can continue to relax my hair..
May 6th, 2009 at 12:38 am
my hair has been rebonded last year.. my hair is still a bit straight.. i’m happy with the results. or maybe because i have very strong hair that’s why it doesn’t fall off or something.. i’m gonna have another treatment about 3 weeks from now. I think you should just rebond when you have really really thick strands of hair like mine..
May 7th, 2009 at 7:38 am
Actually, I was born with straigh hair. Then when I turned 4 or 5 years old my grandmother decided to curl my hair. Since I was just only below 6 I didn’t know what I was doing so I agreed to her. Then when I was 8 years old, I started to feel irritated to my hair because it was damaged. It became curly and kinky. I decided to rebond it before first year high school. And I do it every year before the start of new school year. If I do it every year will it cause further damage when I grow old? I need answers. I’m really afraid I’ll lose my hair.
May 7th, 2009 at 9:15 am
i used to temporarily straighten my hair for many years and my hair ended up with split ends, and i used to be teased as Sisal hair. i later just went for hair ironing which was equally damaging to my hair.
when i heard about hair rebonding, i went for it without a thought. i have had no problems with it. its been 2.5yrs since i got it done. i dont have split ends, my hair is soft, doesnt fall off and i dont need to worry about rain falling on my hair and making it all frizzy again.
the only problem i face is retouching it every 6 months.. which is also very expensive..
i think rebonding is way safer than the harm we do to our hair for styling and straightening it only temporarily.
i think it was just unfortunate of those who get some adverse effects from it…but as long as u choose the right place to get it done, and a trusted product, like Loreal, u will be fine
May 11th, 2009 at 1:43 pm
Im a guy, and i have straightened my hair for atleast thrice already during high school. Then I\’ve had it rebonded, a period after that I\’ve had it rebonded again. Then atleast 5 months before today I\’ve had it relaxed. Guess what my hair looks like now: it\’s still healthy, maybe even better, (healthy, shiny, and supple) despite the fact that we guys are more susceptible to hair loss and damage. It\’s not as bad as you think, you just have to learn about proper maintenance. NOTE: OF COURSE YOU SHOULD CONSIDER STUFF LIKE WHEN YOU HAVE WEAK SCALP OR HAVE BEEN TAKING DRUGS LIKE ISOTRETINOIN OR MORE IMPORTANTLY, IF YOUR STYLIST IS REALLY A PROFESSIONAL AT WHAT HE/SHE IS DOING TO YOUR HAIR.
May 13th, 2009 at 1:12 am
hi..had had a curly perm 2 months back…which is all weird now..looks really messy…have a few split ends and dryness…very little breakage…i guess cause this was my first chemical treatment ever…anyway now its a mess and i want it straight back again…can i get it straightened using loreal extenso..or should i wait it out for 6 months using hair irons?
plsss help ..i really dont know how to fix my hair!!!!
May 16th, 2009 at 5:23 am
i got my hair rebonded awhile ago. reading what’s written here made me really scared. my hair is weird coz the outer layer is wavy, the middle is so curly and the innermost is straight… i’m thinking not to have another rebond for the rest of my life. do you think curly perms are better than rebonding??
May 22nd, 2009 at 5:22 am
Hey … had my hair rebonded in singapore the end half of last year and its really good except they put the straightener too near your scalp which can cause roots and streaks of damaged white hair sometimes and when i visited the doctor she said its not becoz of stress only bcoz of the damaged they did ….
May 22nd, 2009 at 6:39 am
i have done my hair strightning three years ago and i am quite comfertable with it,but thing is you have to take care of it, follow the instruction what hairstylist says..and also you can go with hair spa..
May 30th, 2009 at 7:35 am
Hair bonding isnt for everybody. You stylist should have tested a small portion of your hair to make sure it could stand up to such a harsh chemical. Try deep conditioning your hair once a week and go to african american hair care tip websites. we have been processing our hair from a young age so we know how to take care of it after a chemical process. Next time research before you act, the internet is a huge place for info. hope your hair gets better.
June 4th, 2009 at 8:19 pm

hey can we use the any shampoo after rebonding?
June 7th, 2009 at 10:07 pm
Just last June 2008 I got my hair rebonded again in Salon de Morbai in Intramuros, Manila here in the Philippines. Needless to say my hair was silky straight- the hair that you see in Rejoice, Pantene and Palmolive commercials. People knew that my hair was treated but they kept on praising how smooth and soft it is. I guess the stylists in that salon knew their stuff. I suggest going there to have your hair rebonded since two of my friends got their hair rebonded at some salon last December 2008. Compared to mine, I’m happy to say that my hair looks far better and as if I had mine as recently as theirs.
And speaking of any post-treatment, I just used conditioners everyday (since we shower everyday) and my silky straight hair lasted for almost a year (May 2009).
Right now my natural hair is growing but it somehow followed the softness and silkyness of my rebonded hair.
June 8th, 2009 at 9:54 am
FOR ALL THOSE WHO WANT TO GET THEIR HAIR REBONDED, GO FOR LOREAL PRODUCTS ONLY…. YOU WILL NOT SUFFER, I BET. ITS MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. COZ THESE ALL R MYTHS THAT HAIR GETS DAMAGED OR IT RESULTS IN HAIRFALL. BELIEVE ME THERE ARE HARDLY 2-3% PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD WHOSE HAIR GETS DAMAGED & THAT TOO BECAUSE THEY DONT TAKE PROPER CARE. IF YOU ARE CAREFUL & USE GOOD PRODUCTS, YOU DONT HAVE TO ASK ANYONE.
THANX….
June 9th, 2009 at 10:54 am
aaaww…i will have my rebond within this week, but i got my hair colored last week of January.. well, i dont know if i will still continue rebonding my hair because i had my hair colored, could anyone please help me? im from the philippines, and can anyone suggest any good and safe salon here that is not so expensive? because i just dont have that enough money..thanks contact me pls? 0927469126 tnx..
June 10th, 2009 at 12:05 pm
Rebond hair by yourself so can do it.
DIY, save money in good rebond condition with any product come to market and seem they need to keep all your natural and seem not chemical .. sound perfect.. but you can try by yourself as me. I;m happy after looking for some product and then select it.
find out DIY product in ebay as this name Rebonding Gel.. Looking for seller as “vnusband”
June 11th, 2009 at 5:22 am
i’m addicted to rebonding, have been doing it for almost 7 years now (every year or every 1 1/2 years). have tried piandre salon, hairbytes, bench fix, reyes haircutters. so far have not yet had any bad experience yet BUT i have to admit the ends of rebonded hair do get a little dry so it’s really essential to have a follow-up conditioner and/or repair treatment after every shampoo. it’s also a hassle to not put up your hair for a month or take a shower for a week after the rebonding treatment. plus, it’s expensive too (but reyes haircutters was really cheap at only P2000). still, i can’t live without it because it saves me a lot of time getting ready in the morning PLUS without it i would look like a bruha with my naturally coarse, frizzy, kinky hair.
June 13th, 2009 at 6:54 am
is rebiunding really nice?
June 16th, 2009 at 1:00 pm
I rebounded my hair before 3 months.. I got curls back on back side of my head… what should I do? what should be done to look my hair silky and straight with smoothness?.. Because my hair is so curly.. I used to use protein pag… But give me solution please…
June 18th, 2009 at 9:04 pm
I had my hair rebonded 2 years ago. It turned out well my hair was like those of commercial girls’. (My hair is really thick and frizzy.) Haha. It lasts longer than relaxing the hair, which I had done twice in the span of two years before I had it rebonded. But now I stopped.
Advice to those who want to have their hair rebonded:
Tell your stylist previous stuff done to your hair (i.e. rebond, coloring, cold wave)
They should make sure that chemical will NOT touch your scalp, to be safe.
Cons of Rebonding:
As stated in the article, hair loss yes and your hair might get dry, especially at the ends.
June 21st, 2009 at 10:54 am
FIRST OF ALL… ITS REBONDING NOT REBOUNDING FOR CHRISSAKE. WE’RE NOT TALKING BASKETBALL HERE. LETTER B, ITS SCHWARKOPF NOT SCARZCOF. AND LASTLY, SCHWARZKOPF IS THE BEST BRAND FOR HAIR CARE OUT THERE, WHEN IT COMES TO MAINTENANCE. CELLOPHANE IS ALSO A MUST AFTER SINCE IT HELPS TO NOT MAKE THE ENDS DRY (I DIDNT HAVE ONE, THATS WHY MINE ARE DRY. IT WAS EXPENSIVE BUT I THINK ILL JUST BUY A HAIR TREATMENT PRODUCT ALSO BY SCHWARKOPF, AS WELL AS SHAMPOO+CONDITIONER).
June 25th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
umm… i just got rebonded yesterday. 2nd time. both in philippines. 1st time was years ago. never had results like thoe described. i guess some do, but ths probably is going to scare a lot of people…
my hair is smooth & shiny.
i gave in bc straightening my hair often would make it dry & damaged.
do what yu do people.
btw i use creamsilk, i didnt know we had to do special aftercare…
oh well.
June 25th, 2009 at 7:59 pm
oh i had cellophane too…
July 3rd, 2009 at 1:06 am
I got my hair rebonded in S’pore at a salon my Aunt had hers done at.
I’m from Canada and only speak english, but she left me there for at least 3 hours with three chinese women. At one point they were all working on my hair straightening it at once.
I’m 1/2 indian and 1/2 white.. but my hair is very thick and strong and curly naturally.
Rebonding it made it PINSTRAIGHT at first, and I had no side effects or anything.
I just used normal shampoo by the time I was allowed to wash it, and then ran a few drops of this oil the salon gave me thru.
That was Dec 2007, and it wore off sometime last year.. I’m really thinking about doing it again.. but now I’m a little worried about hairloss..
My hair grows back really fast but idk.
All the stylists that have looked at my hair were amazed that it looked so healthy!
July 6th, 2009 at 12:01 pm
I got my hair rebonded a couple of times..and my hair ofcourse straightened..but just last week..when i went to reyes haircutters..the rebonding sucked!!!they didn’t even straightened it near the scalp so my feels like grass at the top of my head..and whenever i shampoo it i got bulks of hair fall..and when combing it..there it is again..bulks of hair fall..damn!!hate that salon!!don’t go on any branch of that salon!and when i read some of the comments here..i felt that i shouldn’t have rebonded my hair!!

So i found a website where I can order the ION HAIR REBONDING products. However, i don’t remember all the process and what I need. I know that the salon i went to before used the ION hair rebonding cream, then they iron my hair and then put neutralizer. but i don’t know what elese i need to complete the process . I wanna order the products so I can rebond my hair on my own and don’t need the salon or anybody else to do it.
Does anybody have any suggestions of what products i need for the whole rebonding process?

I know that the salon i went to before used the ION hair rebonding cream, then they iron my hair and then put neutralizer. but i don\\\’t know what elese i need to complete the process . I wanna order the products so I can rebond my hair on my own and don\\\’t need the salon or anybody else to do it.
Does anybody have any suggestions of what products i need for the whole rebonding process?

after reading all the comments on ” HAIR RE BONDING”
i came up to a simple thought that this whole process depends upon various facts and i suggest people to take these measures
1) allergic people must test there skin(scalp) before rebonding
2)people having hair fall and weak hairs must treat there hair before rebonding like to provide all protiens to hairs
hope this will going to work

this is actually not true. well it probably depends.
if you have thick but strong hair (like mine) and want to go for rebonding, then its most probably alright.
Im 15 and i got my hair first rebonded when i was 12 and during the 6 months and more, it was awesome. No hair fall or whatever. Though after a year or so, the top end of my hair became a bit wavy but the bottom end was still straight.
thats the part i hate the most about rebonding.
But i guess, you just have to take good care of your hair and use the right products.
I guess, natural is much much better. But if your hair is unmanageable then go for rebonding..;]

actually, the problem of hair loss after hair rebounding is not the product nor the process… it is the hairstylist who deals with the process… it is his/her due responsibility in supervising the whole process of reconstructing the hair texture… remember that every product bears this “FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY”… if unwanted result may happen, then the blame will be to the hairstylist… he/she may be otherwise…

My message to the folk is this ………….. the thing that given in this site regarding hair rebonding only happens when cheap products are used and has done by the unexperienced person….. Rebonding is no ta bad thing…. I have also rebonded my hairs and after rebondings there’s great improvement in my hairs… I feel reduction in my hairfall.. the reason of hair fall is not always the products used on the hairs…its can also due to internal problem and defficiency of Vitamin and minerals in body….. I have used Matrix products and rebonded hair always need a great care and i am still using Matrix Shampoo , conditoner and Serum
Before going through the process of rebonding check the website related to it and notice all the steps properly and you can also take advice of specialist.
Thanx

HOLD ON Ladies!!!! FOLLOW MY TIPS!!!
my hair is thin and slightly wavy. have mild hairfall as well.
But despite all tht i did hair rebonding in November 2007 by a professional salon in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
In the first few month my hair looked like plant roots (like permed). So often for a different i had to blow dry once a while if i wanted a smooth straight look.
Dont bother to oil, shampoo or use anything in your hair for min of 3 days to a week. then try hair conditioner tht is very mild n gentle for your hair. Use the once that contains egg.
Thing of oiling ad shampooing your hair only after a month. so mean while stick to egg conditioners. this way not only ur hair will stay healthy due to the harsh chemical treatment of rebonding but also improve and look natural.
this way you rebnded hair will last for more than a year!!!!!

I rebonded so many different kinds of rebonding products and i will say that WELLASTRATE is the best! about the falling hair i think it’s because the hair is not properly washed… and not use the proper procedure of rebonding.

I rebonded my hair last October 14. Right then and there I lost clumps of hair and 4-5 big bald patches appeared in my head. I really got scared and cried. I even told the hair stylist to stop the process already. But he urged to continue and he will fix the damage. 4 days after, my scalp got itchy, got dandruff and even lost more hair. I am really scared now to even touch or shampoo my hair. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I dont wanna get bald. HELP ME PLEASE.

I think rebonding, just like any other treatment works for some and not for others.
I’ve had my hair rebonded several times now and I am always pleased with the result. I even have baby-fine hair which might be considered weak or easily broken. Yes, there are some breakage during the treatment particularly when the hair is being ironed. But the number of breakage is not that much.
I’m very happy to have discovered rebonding. Because of rebonding, I bid goodbye to wavy, unruly hair. I literally just wash-n-go. I don’t even have to blowdry it all the time because it really dries up straight.
It usually takes 9 mos before I need to come back for another treatment. ‘Coz after this time the the “non-rebonded” hair growth becomes very noticeable. Just get the treatment done by a reputable stylist ‘coz I think it is important that the rebonding solution is put in correctly (i.e. not applied to the scalp) and washed off at the right time (i.e. letting stay on too long is bad).
