Brazil Cacau Eco Keratin Step 2

INDICATION:

• It can be used on all hair types, including colored, previously straightened, or highlighted hair. In these cases, always perform a prior diagnosis.
• In any case, for the hair to be straightened, it must be healthy and in perfect condition.
• If the hair is very damaged, weak, or broken, it is better to do a keratin treatment to repair the hair fiber before straightening.
• Perform the pre-straightening treatment Regenaramax to prepare the hair fiber before straightening.
• Its use is not recommended for pregnant women or minors (only with parental authorization).

ACTIVE INGREDIENTS:

• It is an exclusive and differentiated treatment for the intense restoration of hair with a formula based on:
• Cocoa Butter, which has essential fatty acids, with nourishing, moisturizing, and antioxidant properties.
• Hydrolyzed keratin, a protein that wraps the hair with a film, making it more resistant and elastic.
• D-panthenol, which treats and deeply hydrates.
• Pro-vitamin B5, an important nutrient in maintaining hair health.

ACTION:

Its formula based on keratin, panthenol, and cocoa is responsible for the total reconstruction of the hair and an astonishingly silky and smooth final touch.
Its action occurs due to the variation of pH in the hair:

• The alkaline pH of the shampoo: opens the hair cuticle and intensifies the absorption of the main active ingredients, promoting absolute hydration and nutrition.
• The acidic pH of the finisher: closes the cuticles allowing the storage of nutrients inside the hair fiber, prolonging the results of the treatment and promoting intense shine.

RESULT:

Restored hair, treated from within the hair fiber, silky touch, and full of shine with a straight effect for up to 6 months.

HOW TO USE:
Perform a hair diagnosis for the client. It is recommended to do a strand and allergy test. Wash the hair with the anti-residue shampoo. Massage to create lather, let it act for 5 minutes. On virgin or resistant hair, repeat the operation. Dry the moisture with a professional dryer up to 80%, using only your hands; brushing is not necessary.

Divide the hair into 6 equal sections, securing with plastic clips. Apply an appropriate amount according to the type and amount of the client's hair, of the Brasil Cacau straightening treatment. Hold a section of hair from the nape and with a brush, make firm and unique strokes all along the base of that section, near the root. Do not apply directly to the scalp. Distribute the product with a fine comb throughout the hair. Do not oversaturate the hair with the product, as excess makes application difficult and will not allow for a correct smooth effect. Proceed to dry the first two applied sections at the nape with a professional dryer using cold air up to 100%. Only using hands or with a special brush for brushing. It is necessary to dry only two sections to ensure comfort for the professional and the client, as this will prevent the product from volatilizing and reduce gases to a minimum. Repeat the previous steps on the next two sections and then the two front sections until finishing all the hair.
Divide the hair into 4 sections and perform the ironing. It is recommended to take a fine strand of half a centimeter in thickness, diagonally in a perpendicular (90º) manner to achieve a smoother result from the root.
The temperature will depend 100% on the condition of the hair:

• If the hair is virgin and resistant: the temperature of the straightener should be 230º. In this case, it is important to pass the straightener at least 10 times from root to tip. If this type of hair has undergone a chemical process: perform a good diagnosis and determine if despite the applied chemistry, it is resistant hair.
• If the hair is very chemically processed and fragile: it should be straightened at a temperature of 200º. The straightener should be passed 10 to 15 times at the roots, 7 to 10 times in the mid-lengths, and 4 to 6 times at the tips, depending on the case of dehydration and porosity.

Important: Do not use a heat greater than recommended, as excess heat can damage the hair fiber. To have the ends look natural and healthy: only straighten the ends 6 times on blonde or damaged hair at a temperature of 180º. On normal and resistant hair, straighten the ends 3 times at 210º. After straightening, rinse the hair with cold or lukewarm water. Apply the finishing mask over all the hair and massage. Let it act for 10 minutes and rinse after this time.
Dry the hair with a professional dryer and finish as desired.
Every client who undergoes the Brasil Cacau straightening must maintain at home with salt-free products. It is recommended to do the molecular treatment between treatments to prolong its smooth effect for longer. If the client wants to color their hair, they must wait 5 days before dyeing. Avoid contact with seawater or swimming pools, as the salts from the sea and chlorine from the pool extract the product from the hair fiber. If the client exercises, it is important to wash the hair and proceed to dry it with a dryer or, if it is not their washing day, at least dry the sweat from the scalp with a towel.
