COCOA BRASILIS Straightening Instructions

Step 1
- Wash the hair 2 to 3 times with Clarifying Shampoo - Step 1 (be careful not to scratch the scalp)
- At the last shampoo, leave the shampoo on for three minutes, then rinse
- Wring out the hair with a towel then dry it with the hair dryer at 80%
- Do not brush or untangle the hair so as not to close the cuticles
- Divide the hair into 4 parts to prepare them to receive the treatment

2nd step

- Shake the bottle (Step 2) and pour the product into the bowl
- Apply the treatment 1cm from the scalp on not too thick locks, starting with the nape of the neck
- Comb through for a good distribution of the product

- Cocoa Brasilis smoothing is very concentrated, put a maximum of 50ml for one application

Step 3

- To seal the product in the hair, pass the straightener several times over fine strands (see table temperatures and passages)
