MUMBAI: Hair today, stronger tomorrow. Dove is flipping the damage-care narrative with its biggest launch in 15 years the Peptide Bond Strength range, fronted by a powerful campaign titled ‘Reborn Stronger’. But this isn’t just about split ends and smooth strands. This is about scars, strength and strand-by-strand self-acceptance.
Drawing inspiration from Kintsugi, the Japanese art of honouring cracks with gold, Dove isn’t just sealing split hair, it’s celebrating the story behind it. Just like the artform, the new campaign doesn’t aim to return things to their former state. It shows that every break can lead to beauty that’s more profound, more radiant, and more resilient than before.
At the centre of the campaign is a poetic film that quite literally glows. Fractured hair strands are mended with soft golden light, a visual metaphor for Dove’s new Protein-Peptide Complex, which rebuilds hair from within by restoring broken bonds. The result? Not just repaired hair but reborn hair.
“The campaign isn’t about hiding damage, it’s about redefining it,” says Unilever vice president for hair care Sairam Subramanian. “This is for every woman who’s picked herself up and rebuilt, stronger and more radiant. ‘Reborn Stronger’ is her story, told strand by strand.”
With warm tones, gentle voiceovers and real women in everyday acts of care brushing, tying, letting their hair down the campaign paints a picture that’s less about vanity and more about vulnerability. The message: resilience isn’t loud, it’s lived-in.
Dove’s Peptide Bond Strength range is more than a formula upgrade. It’s a philosophy. Powered by the Protein-Peptide Complex, the new line works at a molecular level to repair internal hair damage and strengthen fibres from the inside out.
The brand that has stood for real beauty now invites everyone to see hair and healing as more than a return to form. As the campaign quietly declares: It’s not about going back. It’s about coming back stronger. And that’s a promise as deep as the roots.
