Sebastian Professional NO.BREAKER

NO.BREAKER is Sebastian's bond-building system for hair that breaks. If you lighten often, use heat daily, or notice short snapped pieces through your lengths, this is the Sebastian range we'd point you to.

Which NO.BREAKER product, and how we use it +

The Anti-Breakage Pre-Shampoo Crème goes on dry or damp lengths before you wash, to protect them during shampooing. Then the Nourishing & Bonding Shampoo, followed by the Bonding Melting Mask, which replaces conditioner and is the core treatment step.

After washing, choose a leave-in: the Bonding & Styling Leave-In Cream for thicker or drier hair, or the Bond-Building & Styling Treatment Spray for finer hair that doesn't want weight. Both can go on before heat styling. You don't need all five; the mask and one leave-in do most of the work. Our NO.BREAKER guide explains the routine in more detail. It's all genuine salon stock from our Wānaka studio, posted NZ-wide, with free shipping on orders over $75.

Questions we get asked +

What does the NO.BREAKER spray do?
The Bond-Building & Styling Treatment Spray is the lighter of the two NO.BREAKER leave-ins. Spray it through damp, towel-dried hair after washing, comb it in, and style as normal. It suits finer hair that would feel weighed down by a cream. You can use it every wash, and it's the product people ask us about most from this range.

Should I choose the NO.BREAKER spray or the leave-in cream?
Go by your hair's thickness. The Treatment Spray is for fine to medium hair that wants strength without weight. The Bonding & Styling Leave-In Cream is for thicker, coarser or drier hair that can take something richer and benefits from extra softness. Don't use both at once; pick one and stick with it.

How often should I use the NO.BREAKER Bonding Melting Mask?
It replaces your conditioner, so you can use it every wash. Very damaged hair does well on it every time for the first few weeks. Once your hair feels stronger, some clients switch to using it every second wash. Leave it on for a few minutes so it has time to work before you rinse.

Is NO.BREAKER or Penetraitt better for damaged hair?
It depends on the kind of damage. NO.BREAKER is for hair that snaps and breaks, often from lightening or a lot of heat. Penetraitt is for hair that feels rough, weak and tangly but isn't snapping off. If you're seeing short broken pieces through the lengths, start with NO.BREAKER.

How does NO.BREAKER compare with other bond builders?
It's Sebastian's take on at-home bond building, built around a pre-shampoo, mask and leave-in rather than a single treatment. It's a full routine rather than a once-a-week step. We've done an honest side-by-side in our NO.BREAKER comparison.
