What this product is

Written from the ingredient list. Where it describes how a formula behaves, that is inferred from what the ingredients are and where they sit in the list, not measured.

Overview

Protein Bonding Care Shampoo is a shampoo from Kundal, aimed at fine hair, straight hair and wavy hair. On the evidence of its ingredient list, the formula works on moisture, oil control and frizz control. The ingredients doing most of that work are Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine and Glycerin. The list runs to 54 ingredients, 20 of which carry a role we recognise for hair.

How it cleanses

It cleanses with Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate, a sulfate detergent — effective on oil and product, and the thing people move away from when colour fades fast or the lengths feel stripped. It is buffered with Cocamidopropyl Betaine, which softens that considerably.

How it feels on hair

The formula reads as lightweight: humectants lead and there is little in the way of heavy oil or silicone, so it should not weigh fine hair down. There are no silicones in the list.

Protein

There is a small amount of protein in the list: Hydrolyzed SOY Protein, Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein, Hydrolyzed Corn Protein and Arginine.

On the scalp

A sensitive or easily irritated scalp may want something milder — the detergent here is the strong kind.

Where it goes

It is the first step of a wash: it goes on wet hair before anything else. Moisten hair and scalp with lukewarm water. Apply an appropriate amount to your hands, foam and massage your hair and scalp. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

What it is not for

Nothing in this formula is aimed at volume / lightweight, color protection and shine — not a fault, just the shape of what is in the bottle, and the reason one product rarely covers a whole routine. No ingredient here is one we recognise as supporting hair growth. Reducing breakage and growing hair are different things, and this formula's evidence is for the first.

In short

Working for it

  • No silicones
  • Light enough for fine hair

Worth knowing

  • Cleansed with sulfates
  • Contains fragrance
  • Not the gentlest option for a reactive scalp
