The Repair Edit: Discover Next-Gen Hair Repair at Capital Hair & Beauty

Still bonding like it’s 2015? Start repairing like it’s 2030.

The Future of Professional Hair Repair

Bond repair transformed the professional haircare world. For the first time, stylists had the tools to rebuild the hair structure from the inside out, unlocking opportunities for creativity and confidence in chemical services.

But hair repair science hasn’t stood still. Bond repair was once groundbreaking for damaged hair, but now you face new challenges that demand the latest and greatest solutions.

Next-gen hair repair treatments go further than before: detoxifying, strengthening, smoothing and shielding from deeper within so hair looks healthier and feels stronger for longer.

The Problem

Hair is under constant attack, before your client even walks into the salon:

At the same time, expectations are higher than ever. Clients want instant results they can see and feel, with strength and shine that last long after their appointment.

The Solution

Next-gen hair repair treatments deliver. These advanced, in-salon formulas go further than bonds alone, working on every layer of the hair to:

• Seal cuticles
• Detoxify metals
• Rebuild strength from the core
• Shield against future damage

For professionals, the impact is clear. Hair that looks and feels healthier keeps clients coming back, strengthens your reputation and sets your services apart.

This is the next essential step in professional hair repair, designed to future-proof your results and your business.

K18 Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask

How It Works: AHA penetrates deep into the cortex to rebuild hydrogen bonds for a stronger core, while Omega-9 coats the fibre’s surface to replenish the cuticle and recreate a protective barrier.

FAQs

Q: What is peptide repair?

A: Peptide repair, like the technology used in K18’s Hair Repair Mask, works at the molecular level, reconnecting broken protein chains inside the hair. This strengthens from within, restoring elasticity, resilience and smoothness for healthy hair that stays healthy.

Q: Why should I choose Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate for hair repair?

A: Redken ABC is an innovative line of hair repair products which strengthen and balance pH with citric acid, and condition with Redken’s Conditioning Care Complex. The range blends bond repair with deep hydration for maximum results.

Q: Why should I choose L’Oréal Metal Detox for hair repair?

A: L’Oréal Metal Detox is designed to track and neutralise metals (like copper) that build up in the hair from water, helping to prevent breakage and colour fade. This next-generation technology can contribute to stronger, healthier hair with more impactful colour results for clients.

Q: Why should I choose K18 for hair repair?

A: K18 repairs hair faster and deeper than traditional bond repair products. It works in just 4 minutes with no rinse required, using biomimetic peptide technology that mimics the natural protein structure of hair.

Q: What is the best alternative to bond builders in 2026?

A: The best alternatives include K18 for speed and depth, Redken Acidic Bonding Concentrate for colour clients, and L’Oréal Metal Detox for blonding and hard water protection.

Q: Do bond builders like Olaplex still work?

A: Yes, bond builders like Olaplex still help rebuild broken bonds. Newer technologies like K18 and L’Oréal Metal Detox can offer fast application times and targeted results for modern services.

Q: Can I mix K18 with colour like Olaplex No.1?

A: No. K18 is used after rinsing out colour or bleach; it’s not mixed into colour like Olaplex. It’s a leave-in molecular repair treatment that doesn’t require rinsing.
