You know that feeling when the curls and coils are poppin', and you've given your client that extra pep in their step? The key to great hair days is all about keeping those locks weightlessly conditioned and doing so is a science. Lucky for you, we’ve got just the tips you need to smooth and define curls and coils that need added detangling + softening after the reparative K18 PRO mask


K18 molecular repair works for every client and every service because the K18PEPTIDE™ works to repair hair on the molecular level where all hair is the same.  So after shampooing, rinsing, and towel drying, apply the K18 professional molecular repair hair mask, clinically proven to reverse the damage and restore softness, smoothness, and bounce in one use. After waiting four minutes, for added detangling and softening, apply DAMAGE SHIELD protective conditioner from mid-lengths to ends, then rinse thoroughly. The result? Curls and coils that are defined, softened, and so easy to detangle, you'll wonder why you didn't do this sooner.

K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH protective shampoo + protective conditioner

For those days in between your clients’ visits to the salon, send them home with a new daily protective routine: the K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH protective shampoo + protective conditioner. Think of this duo as a secret weapon to shield your clients’ healthiest hair against the daily trio of trouble: mechanical styling, sun, and pollution. These aggressors can wreak havoc on hair, causing everything from breakage to frizz and even dulling of color.


The DAMAGE SHIELD protective conditioner defends against three forms of daily damage: mechanical, UV, and environmental, for up to three days. DAMAGE SHIELD fortifies hair’s exterior lipid barriers to make hair more resilient against damage, and K18PEPTIDE™ replenishes strands during washing. Plus, it softens, smooths, and detangles hair without film-forming silicones or waxes that can weigh hair down—meaning your client get weightless conditioning protection between K18 mask days and between salon visits.
