The KUNDAL Protein Bonding Treatment Violet Muguet works on that with eight molecular forms of \u003ca class=\"sn-ilink\" href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/hyaluronic-acid\"\u003ehyaluronic acid\u003c\/a\u003e, from surface-film sizes down to fragments that bind at cuticle level, alongside seventeen free amino acids restocking the shaft. It is the rinse-off step of the Protein Bonding range from Seoul-based KUNDAL, built on the view that hydration and structural repair are one problem rather than two products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater goes in at eight depths rather than one:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sodium hyaluronate, hyaluronic acid itself, a crosspolymer, two hydrolysed forms, an acetylated form, a cationic form and potassium hyaluronate each occupy a different molecular weight range, from the film that sits on the outside of the strand through to the fractions small enough to bind at the cuticle. Single-weight formulas hydrate at one level and lose it from there.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeventeen free amino acids do the structural half:\u003c\/strong\u003e Glycine and alanine for cohesion, cysteine and methionine as the sulphur-bearing pair keratin is built from, and fifteen others alongside them, all at the smallest molecular scale a hair fibre can take in. These sit in the ordinary body of the ingredient list, which is what makes them the working part of the formula.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe hydrolysed proteins are a signature rather than the mechanism:\u003c\/strong\u003e KUNDAL declare rice protein at 100 parts per billion and soy and oat at 10 ppb each on the Korean label. Those are the brand's own figures and they are trace inclusions, so read the repair here as coming from the amino acids and the hyaluronic acid rather than from the named proteins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSealing the cuticle afterwards falls to eight plant oils:\u003c\/strong\u003e Argan, camellia japonica, calophyllum, olive, avocado, castor, rosa canina and jojoba span the oleic, linoleic and linolenic ranges, closing the surface over the water that has just gone in. Without that step the hydration leaves as fast as it arrived, which is the failing of a treatment that is all moisture and no seal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTexture \u0026amp; Finish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cream is thick and coats heavily on wet hair, with enough slip to detangle coarse or curly lengths without a comb catching in them. It rinses away completely, and dry hair afterwards feels soft and weighted rather than grippy, which is the eight oils and the cationic conditioners doing their half of the work. Violet Muguet runs through the whole range, a green floral of violet and lily of the valley that stays faintly on the hair once it is dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal For\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHair types:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to coarse hair at high porosity, bleached, colour-treated, permed or chemically straightened, across wavy, curly and coily patterns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHair concerns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Breakage, elasticity loss, dryness that returns within a day, frizz, and hair recovering from chemical processing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBest used by:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hair whose conditioner stops making any difference within an hour of drying is the clearest case, particularly where bleach or a perm has left it porous enough to lose water as quickly as it takes it in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does this compare with the KUNDAL Honey and Macadamia Protein Treatment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Both address structural damage, and they weight it differently. The Honey and Macadamia version carries hydrolysed keratin, silk, soy and collagen in the ordinary part of its ingredient list rather than at trace level, which makes it the stronger choice if protein specifically is what you are after. This one puts its weight on the eight-form hyaluronic acid system and the amino acids, so it is the better match for hair that is dry again within a day rather than hair that is snapping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is hyaluronic acid in a hair product just a skincare ingredient borrowed for the label?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: It does a real job on hair, but a different one from the job it does on skin. Hair is not living tissue, so hyaluronic acid is not drawing water into cells; it binds water at the cuticle surface and in the porous gaps that chemical damage leaves through the shaft. The catch is that in very dry air a water-binding ingredient with nothing over it will give that water back up, which is why the eight oils sealing the surface are not an optional extra in this formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How often should I use it, and can I alternate it with a keratin treatment?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Every wash suits bleached and significantly damaged hair, while two to three times a week is enough for moderately damaged hair. Alternating with a keratin-led treatment is a sensible way to run it, since the amino acid profiles differ and hair rarely wants the same protein every time. A stiff or straw-like feel is the cue to space both of them out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDamaged hair is rarely short of conditioner; what it is short of is anything that keeps the conditioner where it was put, and that is a different shopping list entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sn-explore-more\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExplore more\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShop our \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/damaged-hair\"\u003edamaged hair\u003c\/a\u003e edit, browse all \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/hair-care\"\u003ehair care\u003c\/a\u003e, or see more from \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/collections\/kundal\"\u003eKUNDAL\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KUNDAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59240448328014,"sku":"KDHS05-TTV","price":13.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/5057\/0062\/files\/KDHS05-TTV.png?v=1779229178","url":"https:\/\/skinnomid.com\/en-eu\/products\/kundal-protein-bonding-treatment-violet-muguet","provider":"Skin-Nomad","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
