I just finished rebonding my bleached hair last night. Yes. My hair is colored (and bleached heavily) 6 months ago. And this week, I just need a fix for my hair but really don’t have the luxury of time to stay at the salon for 10 hours. My awesome salon stylist really takes care of my hair and so the process of all the treatment for my unruly hair takes time. I’ll go see her next month for Brazilian Blowout treatment. But for now, I’ll share about what I did to my hair and how it turned out. Let me start with a background of my hair:
1 – Chemically treated every year since (probably high school)
2 – The most reent treatment was in June 2020 at the salon
3 – Had hair rebond, bleach, hair color, Brazilian blowout
4 – Often subjected to heat for styling (mostly curling) – well, if you ask why do I have it straightened only to curl it, the answer is simple I like it not fizzy and relatively less bouncy. I also don’t like the waves near the crown. I like them just at the mid part to the tips of my hair.
5 – Only use conditioner for my hair these past months, can’t go to the salon for proper keratin treatment
(Bought them at SM store; you can also buy them online – I inserted the links where to purchase)
1 – MONEA Hair Rebond System – Php 269
2 – (2PCS) OMG developer 100 ml – Php 58
3 – (2PCS) Monea bleaching powder – Php 56
4 – Loreal Excellence Hair Color – Dark Blonde – Php 349 (Originally 449 but has Php100 discount)
5 – Coloring brush/applicator and mixing cup – Php 75
(I already have)
6 – hair clips (I suggest you buy more and buy plastic ones)
7 – Hair iron. If you don’t have it yet, here is an affordable and highly-recommended hair iron from LAZADA.
8 – Electric fan (I don’t have a blower, if you have it it would be more convenient but I recommend the fan to really see how effective the chemicals reacted on straightening your hair)
9 – dark towels
10 – extra surgical gloves
11 – Pantene Collagen Miracle conditioner. But if you have extra budget, you can use Monea Keratin Purple Blondie Conditioner or MONEA POWER DOSE
12 – plastic comb
THINGS I SHOULD HAVE REMEMBERED BUYING (and you should too for more efficient and effective application)
I. REBONDING
The rebonding process is easy. The products to use come with easy-to-follow instructions. Anyhow I’ll break them down for you:
II. BLEACHING
For my hair bleach, I used OMG developer and MONEA highlights pro. I mixed this together and applied to my damp hair. IMPORTANT NOTE: THERE IS NO SKIN TEST FOR SENSITIVITY TO BLEACH THAT YOU CAN PERFORM. Each of us has a different sensitivity or tolerance to bleaching. When you apply the bleach to the hair, it is common to feel burning sensation, but if you feel a severe discomfort during the process, you have to stop and rinse your scalp right away.
For the bleaching, I followed the instruction written on the bottle and on the plastic packet. I applied the bleach first to my hair regrowth and after a few minutes (based on what is written in the instruction on the sachet) I combed it down to the rest of my hair strands. After my hair is bleached, I rinsed it with water.
III. HAIR COLOR
For my hair color, I used L’OREAL. I just followed the instructions written on the manual that comes with the box.
IV. CONDITIONING
My hair looks really soft and straight and shiny because the chemicals were newly applied. I expect a little change however after I wash this on Tuesday… Nevertheless, I know that my hair will be more manageable, softer, shinier, and straighter THAN before the rebond.

As you can see, it is not THAT bouncy and shiny – because i wasn’t able to iron it well 🙂 But i am happy with the result because it is so much better than unrebonded hair.
I don’t recommend rebonding your own hair at home if:
– you don’t know your hair strands that well
– you have sensitive skin
– you have chemical allergies
– you are pregnant!!!!
– you don’t have a good ceramic hair iron
– you expect your hair to be like that of Sarah G in the commercials

My newly grown hair began to give the least appealing waves on the crown [and perhaps me worrying about it too much had spawned 3 huge pimples on my face] so I decided to rebond my hair last night, ALONE, inside my room… I worked on my magic from 8 PM and finished 3 AM today…. Whew! The long hours of rebonding was tedious but I’d say it’s worth it!
Here are the products I used (bought them all from WATSONS in SM CITY TAYTAY):

Ah! Before that here’s my hair condition prior to the rebonding:

(actually the hair strands to be ironed should be paper thin)
