How to Use (Professional Use)
Here's a general step-by-step guide for using the Felps XBTX Quiabo Okra Thermal Sealing. Keep in mind that specific instructions might vary slightly, so always refer to the product's packaging.
Preparation: Wash hair with an anti-residue shampoo (or a deep cleansing shampoo) once or twice to ensure the cuticles are open and ready to receive the treatment. Rinse thoroughly.
Drying: Dry hair with a blow dryer until it's about 80% to 90% dry. It's important for the hair to be almost dry but still slightly damp.
Application:
Divide the hair into fine sections.
Using a brush, apply the Felps XBTX Quiabo Okra Thermal Sealing product evenly to each section, starting from the roots and extending to the ends.
Maintain a safe distance of about 0.5 cm from the scalp to avoid direct contact with the skin.
Comb through each section with a fine-tooth comb to ensure even distribution and remove any excess product.
Processing Time: Allow the product to act for 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the hair type and desired level of volume reduction. For more resistant or very curly hair, a longer processing time may be necessary.
Partial Rinse: Rinse the hair lightly with water, removing only the excess product. Do not rinse completely; leave a small amount of product on the hair.
Drying and Alignment: Dry the hair completely with a blow dryer, aligning the strands with a comb or brush.
Flat Ironing:
Divide the hair into very thin sections.
Flat iron each section 10 to 15 times (or more, depending on the hair's resistance and desired effect) at a temperature between 180°C and 230°C (356°F to 446°F). Ensure the heat is consistent from root to tip.
For bleached or chemically treated hair, use a lower temperature (around 180°C to 200°C) and fewer passes to prevent damage.
Final Rinse (Optional but Recommended): After the hair cools down completely (wait about 15-20 minutes), you can rinse the hair again and apply a hydrating mask to seal the cuticles and prolong the treatment's effects. Then, dry and style as desired.
Important Considerations:
Professional Use Only: This product is formulated for professional use and should be applied by a trained hairdresser.
Strand Test: Always perform a strand test before full application, especially on chemically treated or sensitive hair, to check for compatibility and desired results.
Maintenance: To maintain the effects of the treatment, it's recommended to use sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners, along with hydrating masks from professional lines.
