The Felps RP Premium Felps Reconstrução Kit Duo is a professional-grade hair treatment system designed for intense reconstruction and repair of extremely damaged, elastic, chemically treated, and porous hair. This duo kit typically includes a shampoo and a reconstructive mask or conditioner, working together to restore hair health. "RP" often stands for "Resgate Profissional" (Professional Rescue) or "Reconstrução Potencializada" (Potentiated Reconstruction), indicating its high efficacy.
Effects and Hair Types
This kit aims to provide:
Deep Reconstruction: The primary benefit is to rebuild the internal structure of the hair fiber, filling in damage caused by chemical processes (coloring, bleaching, straightening, perms) and heat styling.
Mass Replacement: It replenishes lost hair mass and proteins, which is crucial for hair that has become thin, brittle, or "rubbery" due due to severe damage.
Strengthening and Breakage Reduction: By fortifying the hair, it significantly increases its resistance to breakage and improves elasticity, preventing future damage.
Anti-elasticity Action: It specifically targets hair that has become elastic and weak from chemical overload, restoring its strength and firmness.
Intense Hydration and Nourishment: While focused on reconstruction, the products also deliver deep hydration and essential nutrients, leading to softer, healthier-looking hair.
Shine and Softness: Helps to restore natural luminosity and a silky-smooth feel to the hair.
Frizz Control: Contributes to smoother cuticles, which helps in controlling frizz.
This kit is highly recommended for extremely damaged, brittle, elastic, porous, and chemically treated hair. It's a rescue treatment for hair in critical condition.
Key Ingredients
While specific formulations can vary slightly, reconstruction kits like the Felps RP Premium typically feature a blend of powerful restorative ingredients:
Keratin: The main structural protein of hair, essential for rebuilding damaged bonds and restoring strength. Often in hydrolyzed form for better penetration.
Arginine: An amino acid that helps to strengthen the hair shaft, reduce breakage, and stimulate hair growth.
Creatine: Another amino acid derivative that helps to reinforce the hair's internal structure and protect it from damage.
Plant Proteins: Such as wheat protein, soy protein, or rice protein, which provide essential amino acids to replenish the hair's structure.
Nourishing Oils: Like Argan oil, Macadamia oil, or Coconut oil, which provide lipids, hydration, and shine while helping to seal the cuticle.
Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5): For deep hydration and improved elasticity.
How to Use
The Felps RP Premium Felps Reconstrução Kit Duo generally involves two main steps:
Step 1: RP Premium Reconstrução Shampoo
Application: Apply the shampoo to wet hair, massaging the scalp gently.
Lather and Rinse: Create a rich lather and rinse thoroughly.
Repeat (if necessary): If your hair is very dirty or oily, you can repeat the shampooing process to ensure a clean base for the treatment.
Step 2: RP Premium Reconstrução Mask / Conditioner
Preparation: After shampooing, remove excess water from your hair with a towel.
Application: Apply the reconstructive mask or conditioner evenly from the mid-lengths to the ends of your hair. Ensure all damaged areas are covered.
Massage and Enlube: Gently "enluvar" (massage the product into each strand in a downward motion) to ensure deep penetration of the active ingredients.
Processing Time: Let the product act for 5 to 10 minutes. For extremely damaged hair, you might extend the time slightly as per product instructions, or apply heat (e.g., a thermal cap) to enhance penetration.
Rinsing: Rinse your hair thoroughly with lukewarm water until all product residue is removed.
Finishing: Style your hair as desired.
Important Considerations:
Frequency: This is an intensive treatment and is usually recommended for use weekly or bi-weekly, depending on the severity of the damage. Overuse of protein-rich reconstructive products can lead to protein overload (stiff, brittle hair), so balance is key. It's an essential part of the reconstruction phase of a capillary schedule (cronograma capilar).
Professional Use: Due to its potent formulation and targeted action, this kit is often favored by professionals but is also available for home use. Always follow the specific instructions on the product packaging for best results.
Complementary Products: For ongoing maintenance and to maximize results, consider using other products from the Felps RP line or alternating with hydrating and nourishing treatments.
