What the gurus are saying

One expert found it genuinely effective at repairing colored hair and appreciated the paired shampoo and conditioner, though the high citric acid concentration means it's best used sparingly, around once a month, to avoid throwing hair's pH balance off. However, another expert felt it didn't deliver enough for the price and wouldn't repurchase, so there's real disagreement on whether this one's worth the investment.

"I have used this a couple of times so let's say in the last two months does it work yes. Damage my hair are not damaged they're just colored. It works really well. This is a product which they say you reduce it to once or twice a month then you reduce it to once a month and then you use it only as a treatment. High level concentration of citric acid it is recommended that you don't use it every week. Beyond a point alkaline levels you can have other products other problems so this is a range that needs to be used carefully. I've used it three to four times so I personally think that I'm going to use it like once a month every month and that should be fine. What I really did enjoy is the acidic bond repair shampoo and conditioner it is a really really nice product definitely conditioner repurchase because this is something I really liked."
