Repair Damage with Cysteic Acid

First, let’s talk about the magic of gloss. Glossing is a subtle hair coloring and conditioning technique that involves applying a tone-on-tone or semi-permanent colorant to the hair. This enhances its shade and adds a vibrant, glossy finish that also helps seal the cuticle. It’s a fantastic way to refresh existing hair color, add depth, neutralize, and achieve that coveted salon-quality shine.

After bleaching, hair can sometimes appear overly porous and lackluster. This is where gloss comes into play. It not only imparts rich, beautiful tones but also enhances the overall appearance of the hair. The result is a striking visual transformation that leaves the hair looking healthier, less brassy, and incredibly shiny.

 Acidic Technology

Now, let’s talk about the importance of acidic technology. Unlike alkaline technology, which is commonly used in traditional hair color processes such as bleaching and permanent coloring, acidic technology respects the natural pH balance of your hair. This means it works in harmony with your hair’s natural state, making it an ideal choice after bleaching. When you bleach hair, you’re essentially altering its structure as the alkaline pH swells the hair cuticle allowing for optimal lift and color deposit. This process is necessary to achieve certain results but it can also lead to damage and high porosity. Acidic technology helps to seal the cuticle of the hair, which is crucial for maintaining its health and integrity. 

Color Excel Gloss

Here’s where Color Excel Gloss creamy acidic formula comes into play! Our revamped caring cream is formulated to add up to 4X more shine (vs. bleached hair) and to recover the hair’s natural condition from the first application. Natural hair contains an amino acid called cysteine. When hair is healthy, the amino acid bonds are strongly intact. However, when these bonds break they create a by-product called cystine acid. After using Color Excel patent-pending technology, the cysteic acid contents are neutralized, the hair structure is rebuilt and repaired, and the hair is returned to its natural state.

In addition, the care only our cream can deliver is formulated in a lipid rich cushion that protects hair condition throughout the coloring process. This reinforces the hair’s natural structure and avoids alcohols commonly found in other liquid acidic hair colors that can strip the natural lipid layer, leaving it unprotected. 

This sealing action after bleaching ensures that your client’s hair color is locked in by the GLOWin System™ technology that primes the hair for uniform color deposit, excellent pigment retention, and optimal light reflection. It also deposits highly reflective pigments 1,000 times smaller than the hair fiber for optimal pigment diffusion within the hair structure to create a glow-from-within effect. It then seals the surface-smoothing finishers to help align the hair cuticle for maximum light reflection, locking in color and care! You can expect color to not only last longer and glow more but also prevent external aggressors from causing further damage. All this in only a 10 minutes processing time!
