Frequently asked questions
What is an acidifying mask?
It has a low pH that helps close the hair cuticle after washing, so the strands hold moisture better and reflect more light.
Can I use it on coloured hair?
Yes. Acidifying care is often used after colouring to help seal the cuticle and keep the hair shiny.
Does it contain nuts?
Yes. It contains sweet almond, Brazil nut, macadamia and argan oils, so it is not suitable if you are allergic to nuts.
