K18 Professional Molecular Repair Hair Mist

K18 Professional Mist is a pre-service treatment that strengthens hair before a chemical service. The pH level of 7.5-8.0 shifts the cuticle layer to penetrate hair’s inner cortex and hone in on damage sites.

Takes damage repair further – the biomimetic peptide seamlessly integrates within the hair and reconnects broken polypeptide chains at a molecular level. Disulfide bonds are also reconnected for improved strength along the length and width of hair. This means comprehensive, lasting repair.

Renews hair for better in-salon results – chemically-damaged hair is restored and made more resilient for optimal salon transformations. Use before any service for a stronger foundation and to help prevent damage during services.

Resets hair strength and elasticity – gives you the opportunity to push transformations further with confidence.

  • Made without emollients, the PRO mist won’t interfere with chemical and color services

Description

Professional Molecular Repair Hair Mist

The 4-minute 2-step salon service to reverse hair damage

Patented bioactive peptide treatment prepares, protects and repairs hair before and after in-salon chemical services. Reverses damage and prevents breakage while strengthening hair and improving elasticity. Reconnects broken keratin chains, renewing hair with strength, softness, smoothness, and bounce, with visible results after one use.

 

hair like new

no matter what you put it through

 


The award-winning hair care brand has landed in South Africa.


A breakthrough in biosciences

K18Peptide™ was patented after a decade of scanning and testing the 1,242 decapeptides that cover the entire genome of human hair keratin proteins. The K18Peptide™ is the one unique sequence unlocking the science of transforming damaged hair back to its original, healthy state.

Patented K18 is not just a temporary fix — it’s the first product to utilize biomimetics to reconnect keratin chains once broken by bleach, colour and chemical services, resulting in soft, smooth, strong hair that feels like new. No more worrying about damage sitting in the salon chair. Now you have a healthy, clean canvas of strong hair.

The more damaged the hair, the more dramatic the results.

 

For all hair types, for every generation.

This is BIOMIMETIC HAIRSCIENCE — a new frontier in the hair industry.

Heals hair in 4 minutes.


A radically different approach to hair damage.

Until now, hair care products covered up damage with conditioning treatments that coat the hair in oils, bringing superficial hydration and sheen. Repair treatments patch damage like internal glue – strong but brittle — but provide temporary results.

K18 is the first product that actually heals your hair from the inside out. K18 is clinically proven to undo hair damage caused by chemical services, thermal styling, mechanical styling, and environmental damage.

Damage is universal, and now lasting repair can be too.

Science, not cosmetics.

 

with just one treatment, hair is restored to

Use during and after any salon service.

Use K18 after ANY salon service that creates ANY form of damage.

Lightening chemicals used in colouring wreak havoc with your hair, and damage is a real threat. Nothing spoils a new hair colour like damage. Get rid of that that damage with the repairing and rebuilding action of K18. Imagine this: a platinum transformation with no damage.
Chemical services like relaxers can cause major damage. Using K18 reverses the damage for smooth, silky hair with none of the brittleness and damage. Now your perm or relaxer can look as you intended it to.
Frequent use of hot styling tools can create dry, brittle hair with an unhealthy look any feel. K18 reverses this damage so your styling looks stunning on healthy hair.
Hair damage is a disaster for maintaining any curl or wave pattern. K18 reverses this damage so curls and waves retain their structure and vitality. Rejuvenate the hair for bouncy waves and curls.
