Common Questions

FAQ

Application, ingredient, and pricing guidance for recommending the right weekly Correct treatment.

Can I use Healing Gloss and Restorative Treatment Mask in the same service?

Yes. Apply Restorative Treatment Mask first, process for 2–3 minutes, and rinse. Shake Healing Gloss to activate, apply from roots to ends, process for 3–5 minutes, and rinse.

Will combining them overload the hair with protein?

No. Alpha Keratin 60ku® is a bio-identical protein designed to integrate with the hair rather than build up on its surface.

Is one treatment better for color-treated hair?

Both are color-safe. Recommend Restorative Treatment Mask when color-treated hair feels dry or brittle. Recommend Healing Gloss when it looks dull or lacks shine.

Does Healing Gloss replace a mask routine?

No. Healing Gloss is designed to deliver shine and smoothness. It does not replace a conditioning treatment when the client’s primary goals are hydration, softness, and strength.

Which treatment contains silicone?

Restorative Treatment Mask’s conditioning complex includes a silicone for slip and softness. Healing Gloss is silicone-free.

What should I charge for the service?

The suggested add-on fee for either treatment is $40. Set combined-treatment pricing according to your salon’s service menu, product usage, and positioning.
