With this 1-minute hair mask, Shopping Writer Meghan might have just the thing you need if you’re looking for a quick, affordable fix for dull, dry, or damaged hair.
This year, I’ve been looking for the best hair care products to restore dry and brittle hair. As someone with bleached hair, it can be challenging to keep my hair healthy and nourished, especially after a trip to the hairdresser when it’s most fragile. After trying various brands and products, I always end up returning to OGX. My hair has been transformed by their one-minute hair mask.
I’ve used OGX shampoo and conditioner for years, but they recently introduced the Bond Repair 1-Minute Treatment Mask, which can be used to repair dry, discolored hair in as little as 60 seconds. That’s a bold claim to be made, so I thought I’d put it to the test. Needless to say, I was surprised by the outcomes.

Currently retailing for an affordable £11.99 on Amazon, Boots, and Superdrug, this OGX Repair and Protect Bond Repair Mask promises to deliver rapid repair to damaged hair, providing shiny and smooth results that last. Boasting an innovative Bond Protein Complex, this repair mask is formulated with dual-action repair technology that rebuilds bonds in the inner hair cortex and binds to damaged sites on the hair cuticle to help keep hair strong, smooth, and resilient.
Without sulfated surfactants, the one-minute damage repair hair treatment mask is designed to prevent hair from getting more damaged or exposed to powerful chemicals. For stronger and healthier locks, the mask effectively nourishes the hair while minimizing the visible damage.
After using my favorite OGX products, I frequently reach for the OGX Coconut Milk Shampoo and Conditioner (4 each), and this mask, as instructed, was used. The hair mask was then evenly distributed throughout my damp hair from mid to end, and I then generously applied it to my hand. Given that I have short and thin hair, I used a similar amount and almost covered it all, though the amount you will need will depend on how thick or thin your hair is.
Then, you’re supposed to wash the mask off and enjoy the results for a minute. I put on the mask before going to bed the first time, as I’ve found that they work best when they’re left on for more than one time. My hair felt even more youthful when I woke up and washed out the mask, which was unbelievably soft and silky-touch.
Dealing with dry hair can seem like an uphill battle, especially with the hot weather that has lasted through the spring and into the summer, but this OGX hair mask has completely transformed my dry and bleach-damaged hair.
After making this incredible first impression, I decided to experiment with the results by using the mask for a minute as directed. The results were comparable to sticking the mask on for eight hours with one-minute use. My hair appeared healthier, shinier, and lustrous to the touch.
The low amount of money I needed to get these results is just as impressive as the brief treatment time. This hair mask, which costs just £12, has the same long-term results you’d expect from a salon treatment while remaining affordable for dozens of treatments.
This mask is loved by more than one person, as Amazon customers have given it numerous 5-star reviews. One customer exclaims, “The Treatment Mask has a really lovely scent and isn’t too thick.” Without making my hair greesy, it made my hair soft and glossy. Highly recommended.
Another user commented, “Used this as a quick fix before a night out—worked a treat! My split ends were much smoother without feeling greasy, and I now have a much cleaner look. Even with my thick hair, a few pumps was sufficient. Small bottle, but it’s important. Great for quick touch-ups at the last minute, but I wouldn’t use it daily.
A third chimes in with “I have used a lot of the OGX shampoo and conditioner range, especially the coconut one.” My hair needs all the conditioning it can get because it is completely bleached in the beginning of its life. Therefore, I was eager to try out OGX Bond Repair. The treatment mask is applied the same way to any other hair mask. Apply a sizable portion of the hair mask evenly into damp hair from middle to end after shampooing and conditioning with your favorite OGX products. Leave in place for at least one minute and rinse.
The mask is white, creamy, and has a nice, subtle scent, they continue to add. I usually leave the mask on for the entire 30-minute soak in the bath after washing and conditioning it. Without leaving any greasy residue or weighing my hair down, the mask makes my hair feel really soft and silky. I’m actually quite impressed with how thoroughly my bleached, damaged hair is deeply treated. Results will vary from person to person based on hair type and condition, as with all hair care products. I can only say that so far my personal opinion of using this product has been very positive.
