A "protein filler" fills in and strengthens weakened "hot spots" on the hair (hair that has been damaged by coloring - "porous hair") to ensure a more even process when color is added to your hair again.  If you find that color does not really "stick" to your hair anymore or if your hair is really damaged and breaks a lot, I would recommend you have this done.  It might take more than one application depending on the condition of your hair.  It took THREE applications for my hair.  Good luck!
