rebonding
Chemical hair restructuring
Rebonding is a hair treatment that chemically restructures curly or wavy hair into a permanently straight form.
The process breaks and reforms the protein bonds in hair, resulting in sleek, smooth strands: She got her hair rebonded before the wedding.
The treatment is popular in Asian countries and requires regular touch-ups as new growth comes in.
