Cadiveu Plástica dos Fios Treatment Set 3x1 Liter

This set is a well-known professional hair straightening and anti-frizz treatment, often referred to as a "Brazilian Keratin Treatment" or "Thermal Sealing." It's designed to provide intense straightening, reduce volume and frizz, and deliver shine and softness, while also treating the hair fiber.

Description and Effects:

The Cadiveu Plástica dos Fios treatment is known for its effectiveness in delivering smooth, disciplined, and healthy-looking hair. It typically works by sealing the hair cuticles, reducing porosity, and providing deep conditioning.

Intense Straightening and Frizz Reduction: Its primary effect is to provide highly effective and long-lasting straightening for all hair types, from wavy to coily. It significantly reduces frizz, leaving hair disciplined, manageable, and with a natural-looking straight finish.

Active Ingredients: The formula is usually enriched with a blend of beneficial ingredients that work synergistically:

Acai Extract: A powerful antioxidant that nourishes the hair, protecting it from environmental damage and helping to restore vitality. It also provides essential fatty acids.

Arginine: An amino acid that helps reconstruct hair fibers, promoting strength and reducing breakage.

Acids (e.g., Acetic Acid, other organic acids): These acids, in combination with heat, work to realign the hair's disulfide bonds (temporarily), contributing to the straightening effect without the use of formaldehyde. This allows for long-lasting straightening.

Keratin: A fundamental protein that restores the integrity of the hair fiber, improving elasticity, strength, and overall hair health.

Deep Hydration and Nourishment: The treatment deeply hydrates and nourishes the hair, combating dryness and leaving strands soft, silky, and pliable.

Shine and Softness: Leaves hair with an intense, mirror-like shine and a remarkably soft, smooth touch.

Hair Reconstruction: The combination of keratin and other active ingredients helps to replenish lost mass and reconstruct damaged areas of the hair fiber.

Versatility: Suitable for all hair types, including colored, bleached, and chemically treated hair, though a strand test is always essential.

Long-lasting Results: The straightening and frizz-reducing effects can last for approximately 2 to 4 months, depending on hair type, maintenance, and frequency of washes.

Mode of Use (Professional Use - 3 Steps):

The Cadiveu Plástica dos Fios Treatment Set typically comes in three steps:

Step 1: Pre-Treatment Shampoo (Anti-residue Shampoo)

Wash: Apply the Pre-Treatment Shampoo (Step 1) to wet hair.

Massage: Gently massage the scalp and strands to create a rich lather, focusing on deep cleansing to remove all impurities, residues, and open the hair cuticles.

Rinse: Rinse completely.

Repeat: Repeat the washing process once or twice, leaving the shampoo to act for a few minutes (e.g., 5-10 minutes) during the last wash to ensure optimal cuticle opening.

Dry: Dry the hair 100% with a hairdryer.

Step 2: Thermal Sealing (Active Treatment)

Divide Hair: Divide the dry hair into four equal sections.

Apply Product: Wearing gloves, apply the Thermal Sealing (Step 2) using a brush, strand by strand, from mid-lengths to ends. Maintain a distance of about 0.5 to 1 cm from the scalp.

Distribute: Use a fine-tooth comb to distribute the product evenly through each strand, ensuring thorough saturation without excess.

Processing Time: Let the product act on the hair for the recommended time, which typically ranges from 30 to 50 minutes, depending on hair type and desired intensity.

Rinse: After the processing time, rinse the hair only partially (e.g., 50-70% of the product removed) to remove excess. For very fine or blonde hair, a more complete rinse might be recommended by the manufacturer.

Blow Dry & Brush: Blow-dry the hair 100% completely, aligning the strands with a brush. This step helps to pre-straighten the hair.

Flat Ironing: Divide the hair into very thin sections. Flat iron each section slowly and repeatedly (usually 10 to 15 times, but can be more for very resistant hair).

Temperature: Adjust the flat iron temperature according to hair type:

Blonde, bleached, or damaged hair: Use lower temperatures (180°C to 200°C / 350°F to 390°F) to prevent damage or color alteration.

Dark or more resistant hair: Higher temperatures (210°C to 230°C / 410°F to 450°F) can be used.

The heat from the flat iron is crucial for activating the straightening process and sealing the product into the hair.

Step 3: Restorative Mask (Post-Treatment Mask)

Cool Down: Allow the hair to cool completely after flat ironing.

Apply Mask: Apply the Restorative Mask (Step 3) throughout the hair, focusing on mid-lengths and ends.

Processing Time: Leave on for 5 to 10 minutes to deeply hydrate and restore the hair.

Rinse: Rinse hair completely until all product is removed.

Finalize: Style the hair as desired.

Important Precautions:

Professional Use Only: This product is intended for use by qualified hairdressing professionals.

Strand Test and Patch Test: Always perform a strand test (to check compatibility, hair resistance, and the final result) and a patch test (to check for skin sensitivity or allergies) before full application.

Ventilation: Perform the procedure in a well-ventilated area.

Follow Instructions: Always adhere strictly to the manufacturer's specific instructions provided on the product packaging.
