UP AND AWAY
Whether you follow the trail of floral, citrus, green or woody notes, the latest fragrances have one thing in common: the ability to sweep you off your feet.
s there a better feeling than stepping out of the salon with freshly coloured tresses? While you may have walked in with lacklustre locks, there’s a spring in your step when you exit knowing your locks are luminous, healthy and radiate shine. The caveat? That glossy, bouncy head of hair may have required a few hours in the salon chair. But what if you could replicate that same silky finish in just 30 minutes?
Redken Shades EQ Gloss is the answer.
IWhat is a hair gloss?
While the time and application of Shades EQ Gloss is simple, the formula itself is innovative. The demipermanent colour (lasting six to eight washes), which is applied by your stylist in the salon, works three-fold.
Firstly, it boosts your existing colour or natural shade. Whether you’re blonde, brunette, pastel or silver, there’s a Shades EQ Gloss to dial up your existing tone or even experiment with a chic variation on your current shade. On the flip side, if your colour looks dull between salon appointments (think brassy balayage, faded blonde or pastels that have lost their punch) a speedy Gloss service will even colour correct and have you looking salon-fresh again. Aside from all of this, the universal appeal of Shades EQ Gloss lies in its shine-enhancing expertise. The conditioning benefits of ingredients like wheat amino acids mean every Shades EQ Gloss treatment delivers your shiniest hair yet.
Why should I try it?
Aside from the fact that it’s ammonia-free, Shades EQ Gloss is also gentler than permanent hair colour, meaning you’ll feel good about your next salon service. The added bonus? With a Gloss, you might even find yourself stretching out those lengthier colour appointments. The beauty of the ultra-shine finish and subtle shade boost is that it masks regrowth (grey or otherwise), meaning you’ll enjoy salon-fresh colour for longer.
What can I expect?
Did we mention a Shades EQ Gloss treatment is speedy? After an initial consultation with your colourist, Shades EQ Gloss is applied directly onto dry hair, taking just 20 minutes to develop. Postrinse and blow-dry, you’re sporting refreshed and revitalised locks. But it’s not just a neat refresher. If you’ve previously shied away from a complete colour-switch up, consult your stylist about experimenting with different hues. Think of Shades EQ Gloss as colour without the commitment.
