Struggling to manage your hair? Then you are not alone. With Singapore’s humid weather, it makes handling frizzy and curly hair even more difficult.
That is why most of us with curly and unmanageable hair visit hair salons for some treatment to relax the hair, making it easier to manage on a daily basis.
This type of treatment is also known as hair rebonding.
What is hair rebonding?
Hair rebonding is a type of temporary hair straightening technique that was first developed in Japan. It rapidly became popular across Southeast Asia given its proven effectiveness in making curly and frizzy tresses much more manageable.
Hair rebonding essentially is a type of chemical hair treatment. This process first starts with the hair stylist applying a heavy-duty straightening lotion which is meant to relax your hair. Thereafter, a flat hair iron is used to straighten your hair before a hair neutraliser is applied to maintain the straight hair tresses.
The techniques of hair rebonding have evolved over the years, promising better-looking straight hair end results. While this type of hair treatment is still recommended for those who struggle with frizzy and difficult-to-manage hair, new techniques of hair rebonding such as soft rebonding and volume rebonding are gradually gaining traction as well.
Types of hair rebonding available in Singapore
With the introduction of new hair rebonding techniques, how exactly do they work and are they vastly different from classic hair rebonding?
Classic rebonding
Classic hair rebonding is the traditional type of hair rebonding. The aim is to straighten the hair to its full extent. However, this may result in your hair looking flatter and seemingly “plastered” to your head.
Classic hair rebonding is typically recommended for those with extremely curly and frizzy hair, in which classic hair rebonding can help to tame the unmanageable curls.
Soft rebonding
Soft hair rebonding is similar to that of classic rebonding in that it aims to straighten the hair. However, instead of delivering the straight blunt ends that are a result from classic hair rebonding, soft hair rebonding focuses on creating naturally-looking straight locks. At the same time, it helps to take care of your hair’s frizziness and dryness.
Volume rebonding
If you are looking for a mix between wavy tresses and straight hair, then perhaps volume hair rebonding is the solution.
Volume hair rebonding creates soft and bouncy curls at the end of your hair while straightening the roots of the hair and mid-length. The best part about volume rebonding is that it is suitable for both fine as well as coarse hair textures.
Treatment rebonding
Treating hair rebonding, as its name suggests, involves applying targeted hair chemicals during the hair rebonding process to minimise the damage of rebonding on the hair. Different hair salons offer varied types of hair treatment rebonding. Hence, always check with the hair salon the type of treatment hair rebonding they offer and which treatment rebonding is suitable for your hair texture.
How long can I expect the results of my hair rebonding to last?
The results of hair rebonding usually lasts for around six to seven month. However, this also depends on the rate of your hair growth.
You will also need to go for regular hair rebonding touch-ups depending on your hair growth rate. Some may need to go for a hair rebonding touch-up every three months, while others may only need to have a hair rebonding touch-up every six months.
How should I take care of my rebonded hair to maximise the results?
After going for your hair rebonding treatment, here are some precautions to take to ensure lasting results.
Hold off on washing your hair immediately after your session
Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind – never let your hair get wet immediately after rebonding. In fact, some salons recommend waiting for around 72 hours or 3 days before washing your hair.
The reason for this is because the chemicals used during the post-rebonding treatment is good for your hair and helps to balance the effects of other chemicals that were used during the rebonding process. Washing your hair immediately simply removes these “good” chemicals, leaving you with suboptimal results.
Minimise use of hair ties or hair accessories
After your hair rebonding treatment, it is time to give up those hair ties and hair accessories. These hair ties may leave an imprint on your hair if they are tied too tightly or left tied on your hair for a long period of time.
Similarly, avoid tucking your hair behind your ears as this may leave unwanted imprints on your hair from the constant action of doing so.
Pamper your hair with nourishing hair products
Hair rebonding, regardless of the type that you go with, will almost definitely damage your hair. Hence, it is imperative to give your hair some TLC post-rebonding.
When washing your hair, use products that are specifically meant for rebonded or straight hair. After washing, slather on some conditioner and leave it on for some time in order to allow your hair to absorb the moisture and essence.
Avoid damaging your hair with additional heat or chemicals
Consider hair rebonding as an irreversible damage to your hair. The last thing that you will want to do is to overprocess your hair further.
After rebonding your hair, you should avoid any other type of hair treatments. This includes hair colouring and even blow-drying your hair. If you really cannot survive without a blow dryer, use the cool settings to avoid damaging your hair.
Maintain a healthy diet
Believe it or not, your diet has a major role to play in the health of your hair! While it is important to take the necessary efforts to maintain your hair’s health after rebonding, you will also need to upkeep a healthy and well-balanced diet. This helps to ensure that your hair is growing out healthy from its roots.

Review 1 | Toshie has been the most amazing, gentle and attentive stylist I’ve ever had. Wishing her all the best in her journey with Art Noise as she travels across the branches around the world to help people like me become more confident and comfortable with hairstyles that suit their physiques and personalities! Gambatte and Arigatou gozaimasu 🙂 |
Review 2 | Thank you Masami san. This is my first visit & I did rebonding + cut. Masami was the one throughout, handling my hair, making effort to check if that’s the style I wanted etc. I told her I leave it up to her to decide for me. Wonderful experience & I’ll definitely go back for my next hair-do. |
Review 3 | I have tried many different hairstylists since I moved here many years ago and the result was almost never satisfactory. I recently found Art-Noise through beautyundercover, what attracted me to it is the first time customer discount. 🙂 After doing a lot of research and looking at their portfolio, I decided to give it a try and I selected Masami as my hairstylist. I went in for a rebonding + haircut. Initially I was very worried of how it’s going to turn out because of my past experiences, but in the end, the result was much more than I expected! This is probably the first time I have ever had such a nice hair style!!! Masami is very skillful, patient, and humble. The service she provided is worth a lot more than what I paid for. I never write a review for anything, but Masami really deserves one. Thank you Masami for your great work and service! |

Review 1 | Emiko san is really very good. She takes good care of one’s hair. Very meticulous and courteous. Her staff are very polite too. Excellent experience! |
Review 2 |
Emiko is caring and meticulous! She dutifully worked on my hair while I relaxed on my seat for 8 hours, as I wanted to go from black to ash beige! The end result was a darker shade that faded upon washes to the ashy tone which I wanted, which made the colour longer lasting.
I also highly recommend getting the care bleach with Olaplex when dyeing your hair with Emiko. Personally I did 2 rounds of bleaching then. Fast forward to another hair appointment, the stylist (from another salon) commented that my hair is pretty durable even another 2 rounds of bleaching (making it 4 times thus far!) and that she has seen other clients with their hair breaking off by then.
Thank you Emiko, I’ll come again!

Review 3 | Keiko as always is patient and attentive. Good service and restful ambience. My 5th visit already! |

I had chanced upon Rubik Hair Salon in an article by Beauty Undercover. I had a fringe cut done badly in another salon and was anxiously searching for someone who can help to rectify the error. Teru was my saving grace and was patient hearing me out, understanding what I need and did a wonderful job.
Went back again today for a dye and he recommended colors that suit me. Am happy with how he go about getting it done as well as the end result. Recommend this salon to anyone who wants a trusty stylist who is meticulous in details and reliable. Btw, this is the only salon that wrap your hair in a hot towel after washing it, it is so relaxing and pampering
