Bblonde from Jerome Russell
It is hard and rather expensive going to the salon to change your hair colour blonde, but not only that, we often moan because our colour when done seems to fade away right before our very eyes! But follows is how you can have beautiful blonde hair at home using the system from Jerome Russell.
Jerome Russell was very quick to see the problem many girls and guys were having with bleach blonde hair and his JPLEX range was developed to repair and maintain healthy bonds of hair whilst having frequent colour treatments. The formula is so effective that over time it has gained somewhat of a cult following amongst his customers even with a multitude of hair types and colours.
But it is no longer just for blondes as his JPLEX system has been given a new lease of life along with clever new packaging. You can now use his system as a regular at-home treatment whenever you feel your hair feels like it needs an added boost of resilience. The recommendation is to use the full 4 step treatment plan around once a month, or as your hair requires. However my absolute favourite of the 4 steps is the Bond Maintenance which I use every time I style my hair, actually I got rather addicted to it as the results I get make me smile! Would love a larger size but perhaps I just need to organise myself better and always have a spare in the bathroom.
JPLEX Bond Primer
This is your first step as this is a primer, a pre-shampoo treatment that prepares your hair for cleansing and the bond building treatment by lifting and penetrating your hair cuticle. This means that the rest of the treatments will penetrate the core of your hair shaft and therefore be effective. This primer is suitable for all hair types and colours and is also sulphate free.
Apply to your dry hair from roots to ends and comb through with a wide-toothed comb or try a wet brush to ensure that your hair is saturated with the primer. There is no need to rinse out before applying shampoo as this will help absorb the bond building technology.

JPLEX Bond Building Shampoo
Now your next step is the JPLEX shampoo which has been created to gently cleanse your hair of impurities and any product build up whilst it repairs the damaged bonds of your hair. The shampoo gets your hair ready for Step 3 and helps the treatment work effectively.
Just apply a generous amount of shampoo to wet hair and massage into a lather. Work the ends before thoroughly rinsing your hair. Again this shampoo is suitable for all hair types & colours and is sulphate free and vegan

This nurturing bond building conditioner is designed for regular use following the bond building shampoo. This conditioning treatment smooths and seals your hair shaft so your hair is strong, vibrant and healthy-looking, which is what we are all after isn’t it? The conditioner penetrates your hair to the core as it strengthens and repairs damaged bonds, it makes such a difference. Suitable for all hair types & colours and is sulphate free.
Please make sure you allow the mask to work by leaving it to process and work its magic for a full 10 minutes, otherwise you’ll not get the full benefit of this mask-like treatment.

JPLEX 4 Bond Maintainer Spray
The JPLEX Bond Maintainer will improve your hair condition from within by reinforcing and strengthening bonds. This is a salon-quality leave-in treatment that has been designed as step 4 of 4 in the Bond Building range. It offers heat protection up to 230˚C and will appeal to so many of us that use straightening irons. Suitable for all hair types & colours and is sulphate free.
After rinsing out the conditioner, towel dry you hair and spray the bond maintainer evenly over your damp hair. No need to rinse out just style your hair as usual. The maintainer can be used regularly whenever you wash and style your hair.

Taken from the JPLEX website:
Our 4 step JPLEXTM range has been formulated to protect, strengthen and restore your hair’s natural resilience from the very core. It penetrates the hair shaft to repair damaged bonds caused by colouring, heat styling and general environmental damage. JPLEX is the foundation needed for consistently great hair days.
How it Works
Hair is made up of 3 main layers, the cortex, cuticle and medulla (not always present). The cortex, is responsible for pigmentation (colour) and hydration and is made up of disulphide and hydrogen bonds. The cuticle consists of overlapping cells that protect the cortex from damage. When hair is damaged the cuticle is raised and the bonds within the cortex can be weakened and broken. Damaged hair may look and feel dry, lifeless, dull and can either become stretchy or lose elasticity and break.
JPLEX works in stages to lift the cuticle, penetrate the cortex and repair bonds and finally smooth and reseal the cuticle to protect that hair from further damage.
Initially intended to repair and protect hair during and after the bleaching process, JPLEX has shown significant results on all hair types leaving hair shiner, softer and more manageable. Truly resilient hair.
