Minimalist Maleic Bond Repair Complex 5% Hair Serum, 50ml. Targets damaged hair bonds from heat/chemical styling. Ships across Nepal with COD.Heat styling and chemical treatments break hydrogen and disulfide bonds within hair keratin, leading to breakage and rough texture. Minimalist's Maleic Bond Repair Complex Hair Serum (50ml) uses Maleic Acid Complex at 5% concentration, formulated to target these broken bonds. Maleic acid is a category ingredient known in cosmetic chemistry for bond-rebuilding action; Minimalist states its formulation at 5%.Key BenefitsBond-Level Repair: Maleic Acid Complex at 5% is formulated to target hydrogen and disulfide bonds broken by heat and chemical styling — this is category-level ingredient science, not an independently verified clinical percentage from MinimalistBreakage Reduction: Bond-repair actives are studied in cosmetic chemistry literature to reduce mechanical breakage from brushing/styling; individual results varyImproved Manageability: Bond-strengthening formulas are brand-stated to improve hair smoothness and reduce tangling after regular useLightweight Application: 50ml serum format designed for leave-in or pre-styling use without heavy residue (brand-stated)Compatible with Styling Routines: Formulated for use alongside heat styling and chemical treatments, per brand guidanceIngredientsIngredientFunctionBenefitMaleic Acid Complex (5%)Bond-repair activeCategory-known for targeting broken hydrogen/disulfide bonds in hair keratinHumectant base (brand-stated)Moisture retention agentHelps retain hydration in hair shaft during treatmentLightweight carrier (brand-stated)Serum baseEnables even application without heavy buildupHow to UseApply to towel-dried or dry hair, focusing on mid-lengths and endsUse 3–4 drops for short hair, 6–8 drops for long hair (adjust as needed)Distribute evenly using fingers or a wide-tooth comb; do not rinseUse daily or before heat styling, per brand guidanceComparisonFeatureMinimalist Bond Repair SerumL'Oréal 8 Second Wonder WaterPlum Bond Repair SerumSize50ml200ml (approx.)50ml (approx.)Key Active %Maleic Acid Complex 5%Not disclosed publiclyNot disclosed publiclyDamage-Repair ClaimBrand-stated bond repairBrand-stated "instant" repairBrand-stated bond-buildingFAQ SectionDoes Minimalist serum work on chemically treated hair?Minimalist's Maleic Bond Repair Complex is formulated to target broken hydrogen and disulfide bonds, which commonly occur from chemical treatments like coloring or keratin smoothing. Brand does not publish independent clinical data specific to chemically treated hair; patch-test recommended before full use.How is bond repair different from regular hair serum?Regular hair serums typically coat the hair shaft for shine and frizz control. Bond-repair serums, like this 5% Maleic Acid Complex formula, are designed to target internal bond structures within hair keratin — a different mechanism than surface-level conditioning serums.Can I use this on color-treated or keratin-treated hair?The product is formulated for general damaged hair repair, including chemically processed hair, per brand guidance. Always check current packaging for specific compatibility notes and patch-test 24 hours before full application, especially in Nepal's humid or dusty climate conditions.How long does it take to see results?Minimalist does not publish a specific clinical timeline for visible results. Bond-repair actives generally require consistent use over several weeks; individual results vary based on hair damage level and styling frequency.Is this serum better than hair oil for damaged hair?Bond-repair serums target internal keratin bond structures using active ingredients like Maleic Acid Complex, while hair oils primarily provide surface-level lubrication and shine. Both serve different functions; serum-based bond repair is a distinct category from traditional oiling.Trust/Proof LineMinimalist products are formulated with dermatologically-reviewed actives (per brand claims — verify current certification on official packaging)Ships across Nepal with Cash on Delivery (COD) available
