KEY BENEFITS:

*based on consumer test results, acidic bonding curls system
**system of acidic bonding curls shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in vs. non-conditioning shampoo1. What hair types and concerns is this conditioner best suited for?
This conditioner is designed for wavy, curly and coily hair (curl patterns around 2B through 4C) that is damaged, chemically-processed or heat-styled, and needs bond repair, hydration, elasticity and frizz control.

2. What are the key benefits stylists should highlight to clients?

• Formulated with the brand’s Curl-Bond Technology (citric acid + glycine + urea) to rebuild internal bonds and restore curl structure.

• Up to 96 hours of conditioning and hydration when used as part of the full system. 

• 92% of users saw healthier and more defined curls in one use.

• Up to ~85% less frizz for up to 96 hours (when used as part of the full system).

• Silicone-free and sulfate-free, making it safer for color-treated curls. 

3. How should stylists apply it in a salon or professional setting?
After shampooing with the matching system (ideally the Redken Acidic Bonding Curls shampoo), apply the conditioner to wet hair, focusing on lengths and ends. Leave on, then rinse thoroughly. Follow with the Leave-In Treatment step for full effect.

4. Can it be used on color-treated hair or on relaxed/transitioning curls?
Yes — it’s safe for color-treated curly or coily hair and built for damaged textural hair. For relaxed hair (where the curl pattern has been removed), the brand suggests alternative formulas may be more appropriate, but it still offers benefits for hydration and repair.

5. Will it weigh down the hair or leave residue?
Because it’s silicone-free and formulated for curls/coils, it delivers deep conditioning and definition without heavy residue. It’s designed to improve curl pattern and elasticity without flattening or coating the hair. 

6. What unique advantage does it bring compared with generic curl conditioners?
Unlike many conditioners that purely focus on moisture or styling, this one also addresses the internal structure of the hair via bond-repair technology (Curl-Bond Technology). That means you can promote it as a dual-benefit product: style/definition + structural repair — which is a strong selling point in a salon environment.
