Description

I always recommend that my clients come to get glossed and toned between salon visits to extend the life of their color. I’m finally able to give them, and you, something that is easy to use at home. This in-shower treatment is formulated to instantly boost vibrancy and shine, while neutralizing warmth on color treated or natural bronde (between dark blonde and light brown) hair. It will help you keep your color looking fresh, shiny and healthy between appointments.

Choose this color if you have dark blonde or light brown hair (aka: bronde) and want to neutralize or tone down warmth.

HOW TO:
(Read all instructions thoroughly before glossing your hair)
1. wet your hair thoroughly in the shower.
2. mix bottle 1 and 2 together, shake gently and apply all over.
3. wait 10-20 minutes, depending on the result you want, then rinse thoroughly.
4. shampoo and condition as usual.

VIBRANCY BOOSTING TECHNOLOGY:
creates a protective shield over the hair to instantly boost shine and
help lock-in your color.

ANTI-OXIDANT COMPLEX:
smooths and softens hair from root to tip making hair more
manageable.

ALKALINE NEUTRALIZING SYSTEM:
protects from color fading by preventing hard water minerals from
being deposited onto the hair and scalp.

WHO NEEDS THIS?
anyone with dark blonde or light
brown hair (aka: bronde) looking to
tone down warmth and enhance
shine.

WHAT IS IT?
in-shower treatment that nourishes
strands and restores vibrancy.

WHEN DO I USE IT?
in-between salon visits or any time
your hair color looks too warm
or “brassy”.

WILL IT COVER gray HAIR?
ammonia-free formula will not lift,
lighten or cover grays.

IS IT PERMANENT?
color lasts 3-4 weeks and will
gradually fade, depending on how
often you shampoo


Color + keratin safe.
Single application.

Q: Is there a way to remove the temporary color more quickly than the 3 to 4 weeks?

submitted by J - 1 year ago

  • A: Hello! Thank you for your question! To speed up the process, you can always incorporate a clarifying shampoo into your washing regime to help. How quickly a gloss fades depends on the porosity and condition of your hair as well as how often you shampoo. Hope this helps!

    Saved my hair! Looks like I just left the salon!

    I don’t leave reviews but how this fixed my hair was a miracle. I got my hair done in April, my stylist left a horrible harsh line at my root and I’ve hated my hair ever since. I’m a natural level 7, and the rest of my hair was very light bleached blonde.. I did the first application on damp hair, it added a nice tint, but I did a second on dry hair and omg, my hair is fixed! The harsh outgrown root line has blended out sooo well! It gives my hair such a pretty ashy medium blonde. I would have spent $400 for this result and instead only about $25. I might never use anything again this is exactly what I wanted! Adding a deep conditioner after shampoo and conditioning also did wonders!

    Just the worst

    Awful. Dried the heck out of my hair and no visible difference in tone, color or shine. My hair is like straw now. Hoping that some tlc helps this mess.

    Needed 3 boxes for my longer hair, left in longer than requested, still didn’t see much difference. Not worth the hype I saw on TikTok.

    LOVE!

    Amazing! I loved the color of my hair, but coming into winter I wanted something just a touch darker to go with my pale complexion :) this did exactly what I wanted and was a much cheaper option than heading into the salon. Can’t wait to see how long it lasts, but with how cheap it is have no problem doing it again.
