When can I wash, style, or color my hair after applying the serums?Updated a month ago

Washing: Allow the serums to absorb for as long as possible (ideally greater than 6 hours) or at least 60 minutes before washing your hair. This ensures that the active ingredients penetrate the scalp and follicles effectively. Washing too soon after application may reduce their effectiveness. For best results, apply the serums at night and wash your hair the following morning.

Damp hair: The serums can be applied to either dry or slightly damp hair. After washing your hair, towel-dry it gently to remove excess moisture, then apply the Prevention and Treatment serums directly to the scalp. Avoid applying to dripping-wet hair, as this can dilute the product. Allow the serums to absorb for at least 30 minutes before applying any other styling products or heat tools.

Heat styling: Avoid blow dryers, curling irons, or straighteners for about one hour after application to prevent heat from breaking down active ingredients. If you prefer to style in the morning, apply the serums at night instead.

Coloring: The formulas are safe for color-treated hair (including Henna) and should not fade or alter your color. We recommend pausing serum use for one day before and after coloring to allow the dye to fully set. Because the Prevention serum contains vitamin C, which is an antioxidant, avoid applying it immediately after hair dyeing to prevent potential interference with the color.
