Donna Indiana Queen Care New Packing Set 3x1 Products

This "3x1" set typically refers to three essential products in the Donna Indiana Queen Care line, generally including:

Volume Reducer Gloss Indiana Queen Care (Step 1): This is the primary straightening/realignment product, often called "Gloss Glühen Indiana" or similar. Its advanced formula is based on organic acids (rather than formaldehyde) to effectively reduce volume and provide a long-lasting smooth effect. It's designed to promote hair realignment without damaging the hair structure, simultaneously treating and conditioning the hair. It contains Keratin and other components to rebuild and strengthen the hair fiber. This gloss is usually a 1-liter bottle.

Balm pH Neutralizer Indiana Queen Care (Step 2): This crucial step is a pH neutralizing balm. It acts to rebalance the hydrogen potential (pH) of the hair and scalp after the realignment process. This step is vital to prevent breakage, hair loss, and dryness that can occur from chemical procedures. It also helps eliminate the unpleasant smell sometimes associated with organic acid-based progressive treatments when hair is wet, and it works to reconnect disulfide bonds in their new straight position, prolonging the chemical result. This is typically a 500ml bottle.

Multifunctional Reconstructive Mask (Step 3): This mask is designed for intense hydration, nutrition, and recovery of capillary fibers. It helps to replenish lost nutrients and lipids during the chemical process, enhancing shine, softness, and manageability. This is usually a 500g jar.

The set is marketed for professional use and is compatible with chemically treated hair, provided the strands are in good condition to receive the procedure. It claims to yield up to 15 applications, depending on hair size.

Effects on Hair
The Donna Indiana Queen Care New Packing Set offers a comprehensive range of beneficial effects on the hair:

Effective and Long-lasting Straightening: Provides a powerful smoothing effect, significantly reducing volume and completely eliminating frizz for a disciplined, sleek look that lasts.

Deep Hydration and Nutrition: The included mask and conditioning agents deeply hydrate and nourish the hair, leaving it healthy, soft, and lightweight.

Intense Shine and Softness: Hair gains a remarkable, intense shine and becomes exceptionally soft and silky to the touch, greatly enhancing its overall appearance.

pH Balance and Breakage Prevention: The pH Neutralizer balm is a key benefit, rebalancing the hair's pH to prevent breakage, hair loss, and dryness. It helps to ensure the integrity of the hair after the realignment.

Elimination of "Wet Hair Odor": The neutralizer specifically addresses and eliminates the unpleasant smell that can sometimes occur in hair treated with acidic organic progressive formulas when it gets wet.

Replenishes Nutrients and Lipids: The reconstructive mask and other treatment components help to replenish essential nutrients and lipids that may be lost during chemical processes.

Prolongs Chemical Results: By balancing the pH and aiding in the re-connection of disulfide bonds in their new straight position, the treatment helps to extend the longevity of the straightening effect.

Frizz Control and Easy Detangling: Delivers frizz-free hair that is much easier to comb and detangle.

Formaldehyde-Free Application: Being formaldehyde-free, it provides a much more comfortable and safer experience for both the professional and the client, with no harsh odors or irritation.

How to Use (Professional Application)
The Donna Indiana Queen Care New Packing Set is for professional use and requires adherence to specific steps for optimal results and client safety. Always perform a strand test and allergy test before beginning the full procedure.

Hair Preparation (with Anti-Residue Shampoo):

Wash the hair thoroughly with an Anti-Residue Shampoo. Massage well until a rich foam forms.

Rinse thoroughly. If necessary, repeat the washing process to ensure the hair is deeply cleansed and cuticles are open.

Dry the hair completely (100%) with a hairdryer.

Application of Volume Reducer Gloss (Step 1):

Apply the Volume Reducer Gloss Indiana Queen Care (Step 1) strand by strand throughout the hair, ensuring even distribution.

Preserve the scalp, applying the product about 1 cm away from the roots.

Let it act for at least 60 to 80 minutes. The pause time varies depending on the degree of hair resistance. Using a disposable thermal cap can enhance the process. After the initial pause, some guidelines suggest waiting an additional 20 minutes without the cap.

Partial Rinse and Drying:

After the pause time, rinse the hair to remove approximately 30% of the product. Some resistant hair types might benefit from slightly less rinse, but ensure it's not fully rinsed at this stage.

Dry the hair 100% with the help of a hairdryer. It is not strictly necessary to brush the hair at this stage, but some prefer to.

Flat Ironing:

Divide the hair into 4 parts, and then divide each part into very thin strands.

Using a professional flat iron that reaches at least 230°C (446°F), flat iron each thin strand repeatedly until sealing and shine are achieved. The number of passes usually ranges from 10 to 20 times, depending on hair resistance.

Observe the condition of the hair during this process.

Cooling and Full Rinse:

Allow the hair to cool down after flat ironing.

Rinse the hair thoroughly, removing 100% of the product. Some instructions suggest washing once with a moisturizing shampoo with a pH of 4.5 to 5.0 after the full rinse.

Application of Balm pH Neutralizer (Step 2):

With damp hair (after rinsing the gloss), apply the Balm pH Neutralizer Indiana Queen Care (Step 2) from root to tip.

Massage the balm into the hair.

Let it act for 10 minutes.

Rinse again, removing the product completely.

Application of Multifunctional Reconstructive Mask (Step 3):

Remove excess water from the hair with a towel.

Apply the Multifunctional Reconstructive Mask (Step 3) strand by strand.

Massage the strands.

Let it act for 10 minutes.

Wash the hair, removing the product.

Finalization:

Apply a liquid thermal protector (if available/desired).

Finish by blow-drying the hair. You can model the ends with a flat iron at a very low temperature if desired.

Important Precautions and Professional Tips:
Professional Use Only: This product is exclusively for professional use by trained hairdressers.

Strand Test and Allergy Test: Always perform both tests before full application to check hair resistance, compatibility with previous chemicals, and potential allergies. This is crucial for safety and optimal results.

Incompatibilities: The product is incompatible with Henna/Hennê and discoloration (bleaching) processes immediately prior to application. It's compatible with other chemically treated hair, but always assess the hair's integrity first.

Scalp Preservation: Always preserve the scalp by applying the product at least 1 cm away from the roots.

Temperature Control: Use a professional flat iron with adjustable temperature. Adjust the temperature according to hair type (lower for fine/damaged hair, higher for resistant hair).

Maintenance: Advise clients to use a good quality, sulfate-free home care line to prolong the effects of the treatment and maintain hair health. The retouching time is typically 3 to 4 months, applied only to the newly grown part of the hair.
