RDS Bond: The Game-Changing Science Behind Hair Repair

When your hair feels fried, brittle or like every end is split, the damage isn’t only on the surface. It’s happening deep inside each strand. Most haircare products give you temporary cosmetic effects that target only the outer most layer of the hair strand, which is why when we decided to target damage deeper than ever, we had to hit the labs for some serious formulation work. The result? RDS Bond, an active complex exclusive to TYPEBEA that repairs damage from the inside out, powering our new Repair range.

RDS Bond: The Game-Changing Science Behind Hair Repair

Here’s the lowdown on what’s really going on inside your hair and why this tech is a big deal.

Your hair isn’t as simple as it looks

Every strand has three layers:

Cuticle – the outer shield that keeps moisture in and blocks damage.

Cortex – the core that gives hair its strength, shape and bounce.

Medulla – the inner layer found in thicker strands, adding structure.

Your hair’s strength comes from protein chains held together by bonds. There are three main types, but disulphide bonds are the heavy lifters. When these strong links snap — thanks to bleach, heat or chemical overload — your hair loses its backbone. Weak, dull, frizzy strands are the result.

Disulphide bonds: the glue holding your hair together

Think of disulphide bonds as the scaffolding inside your hair. They keep it elastic, resilient and smooth. When they break, your hair literally can’t hold itself together. That’s where RDS Bond Technology steps in to rebuild these vital connections.

Meet RDS Bond: Repair, Defence, Shine

TYPEBEA’s RDS Bond Technology isn’t just a surface fix. It’s a triple threat that repairs internal damage, protects from future stress and makes your hair instantly glossier.

1. Repair Complex – Taking damage repair deeper

What it is: Hydrolysed keratin from New Zealand sheep’s wool that’s 91% homogenous to human hair, making it both stable and effective. A blend of three keratin types repairs damage inside and out.
How it works: This bioavailable keratin binds to the most damaged parts of your hair, restoring strength and forming new disulphide bonds in the cortex.
After one use:

  • 80% less breakage
  • 52% stronger hair
  • 67% less colour fade
  • 58% better condition after sun exposure
  • 35% more shine
  • Repairs damaged hair close to virgin state — in just one application

2. Defend Complex – Your armour against everyday damage

What it is: A powerhouse liposomal antioxidant trio of Ferulic Acid, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E. 
How it works: Encapsulated antioxidants reach deep into every strand (even the medulla) to stop UV, pollution and heat from wrecking your hair.
After one use:

  • Stops split ends and breakage in their tracks
  • Prevents frizz and dryness so hair actually behaves
  • Maintains keratin strength
  • Protects against colour fade and environmental stress

3. Shine Complex – Gloss and hydration without the weight

What it is: Pineapple, cocoa and banana extracts, packed with natural acids and minerals for nutrition and moisture.
How it works: Revives dull, damaged hair with a silky feel and serious shine — without the heavy protein overload that otherwise leaves hair flat.
After one use:

  • 44% boost in shine when using the full system

Why do you need bond repair haircare?
