Discover the magic of a hair gloss treatment! This salon-favorite service adds shine, enhances color and smooths hair without long-term commitment.
This treatment is a semi-permanent service that adds a translucent shine to your hair without deeply penetrating the strands, so it won't dramatically alter your natural color.
Hair gloss treatments are packed with benefits. Not only do they boost shine, but they also smooth down the hair cuticle, making your hair feel silky and soft.
Hair gloss works by sitting on top of the hair cuticle, filling in any gaps or rough areas to create a smooth, reflective surface.
There are two main types of gloss treatments: clear and tinted. Both types offer the same smoothing and hydrating benefit.
If you're happy with your color but want added shine and smoothness, a clear gloss is ideal. It boosts moisture, shine and controls frizz without changing your color.
Tinted glosses contain subtle pigments that can neutralize your hair’s natural or dyed color. The tint is subtle but can make a significant difference in reviving dull hair color.
Gloss treatments typically last anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks, depending on how often you wash your hair and your hair type.
While getting a gloss treatment at a salon ensures professional application and expert results, there are at-home options available.
To keep your gloss fresh, use sulfate-free, color-safe products and avoid frequent washing to prevent faster fading.
With minimal upkeep, you can keep your hair looking fresh, glossy and healthy.
