What is Keratin?

Working from the very core of each hair fiber, a keratin treatment shuttles:
• Anti-aging peptides
• Microproteins
• Argan oil
• Collagen
• And a potent elixir of hydrating fatty acids into the hair cortex to fortify its structure.


Together, these ingredients strengthen your hair to protect it from daily aggressors like UV, hard water minerals, and heat styling.
When your hair structure is strong and resilient, it does not break, and it can hold any style all day long

How does it work?

The outer layer of your hair (cuticles) are like roof tiles. And their primary purpose is to protect the inner hair cortex from external damage.
Now imagine what happens when your roof tiles have cracks, holes, big gaps, or worse – some of them were blown away by a storm?
• Water will leak into your house
• Your roof will start to lose its structural integrity
• Leaks will damage your electrical wiring
Similarly, when you overwork your hair with chemical treatments and heat styling, they ruffle up and crack.
Run a hairbrush through, and you’re more likely to end up tugging and breaking your hair.
A keratin treatment seals the hair cuticles to make them flat again.
And with an extra film-forming silk-protein layer, it restores smoothness and heals the snags and tears.
