TeraBond™

U.S. Patent No. 11,273,120

TeraBond™ is a reactive system that covalently bonds to amino acids and keratin fragments in human hair, including broken disulfide linkages, and is a natural, high performing Plex bond multiplier.

Other Plex technology uses controversial ethoxylated chemicals (e.g. diglycol, PEGs) that may contain 1,4-dioxane, but TeraBond does not. It is 100% natural, safe, and renewable.

Uses:

TeraBond can be used in Salon services where developers and neutralizers (peroxides or enzyme oxidizers) are used, such as:

Bleaching, Balayage, and Highlights
Demi and Permanent Color
Perms or Hair Relaxer treatments

TeraBond also repairs bonds in home-use formulas. It can be added to conditioner and leave-in treatments formulas to restore hair without quats or silicones.

Benefits:

There are numerous benefits to using TeraBond in Salon formulations:

Reduces client & stylist exposure to toxic chemicals
Repairs hair to the same standard as leading Plex products
Increases sheen & strength,
Repels moisture, less breakage
Conditions without quats or silicones

Sustainability & Flexibility:

TeraBond is a powder, and is five times more concentrated than Olaplex Step 1.

It can be used as-is and added directly to salon processes and it can be formulated into two-part salon systems (e.g. Step1 and Step 2) as well as at-home treatments (e.g. Step 3, etc.).

Hair Lightening

In the image below, virgin black hair tresses were repeatedly bleached (50 minutes, five times, 40 vol developer), followed by an extreme two-hour bleaching. A trained panel evaluated the No Treatment-, TeraBond- and Olaplex-treated tresses.
