K18 is designed to be used consecutively for 6 washes and then every 3-4 washes to maintain your healthiest hair possible. K18’s primary goal is to restore your hairs strength and elasticity by repairing the keratin chains damaged from bleaching, coloring and thermal heat. K18 is most effective on clean, towel dried hair. Conditioner formulas use silicones and conditioning agents that form heavy coatings on hair that prevent K18 Peptide from penetrating to the broken disulfide bonds within the cortex. You may use conditioner after K18 has processed for 4 minutes if needed, not before.

K18Peptide™ is the miracle molecule haircare was waiting for. Clinically proven to reverse damage in just 4 minutes. Christmas Collection! Featuring a host of skincare and makeup treats, these beauty showstoppers will please everyone (including yourself) on your gift list. Essentially, the K18 Hair Mask is a bond builder treatment that works to repair broken polypeptide keratin chains within the hair. These chains form the inner structure of hair that become damaged over time by things like chemical treatments and heat styling, leaving hair looking frazzled and dull, and feeling dry and rough.

K18Peptide™ is not able to regenerate bonds in the presence of too much water inside the cortex. However, the hair needs to be slightly damp to help with penetration of the product into the hair. Benzyl alcohol is an aromatic alcohol used at 0.5% in the formulas and acts as a preservative. It does not contain ethanol and therefore is used in products that are marketed as alcohol-free. Detangling and conditioning benefits are just an added bonus. As long as you leave it on for 4 minutes, you can add a leave in conditioner, if desired. If heat styling, it is important to use a heat protectant after the 4-minute processing time. Why do you skip conditioner? Cetearyl alcohol is a fatty alcohol with a wax-like consistency. It is often used in hair care conditioning formulas because of its smoothing and softening qualities. It does not contain ethanol and therefore is used in products that are marketed as alcohol-free.

Results observed in a clinical study while using mist and mask as part of a bleaching treatment. Results may vary depending on hair type, quality and history.We recommend applying K18 to clean hair as products can include oils, silicones, and film formers which will act as a barrier and can alter the efficacy of the product. In severe cases of product buildup, it may be necessary to use a clarifying or detoxifying shampoo for best results so that K18 may penetrate into the cortex. Is K18 applied to dry or damp hair? In chemistry, the term “alcohol” is used to describe a broad range of organic compounds. Although the ingredients have “alcohol” in the name, they all behave differently and serve different functions in a formula. Many of them are very different in appearance and function from Denatured or Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol. We do not recommend using K18 Mist or Mask prior to Brazilian or Keratin treatments. However, we do recommend that you use our K18 Mask on your first hair wash after treatment and for 6 consecutive times after.
