The Forever Liss Semi-Definitiva Zero Exclusive 3D Technology Set is a professional hair straightening and volume reduction treatment. "Semi-Definitiva" indicates a long-lasting, but not entirely permanent, straightening effect. The "Zero" signifies that it is formulated without formaldehyde, offering a safer alternative for straightening. The "Exclusive 3D Technology" refers to a sophisticated blend of active ingredients (often including elements like Hydrolyzed Keratin, D-Pantenol, and a complex of nourishing oils like Murumuru, Argan, and Ojon) designed to promote intense hair realignment, reconstruction, hydration, and a vibrant shine with a three-dimensional visual effect. This 2x1 liter kit typically includes an Anti-Residue Shampoo (Step 1) and a Volume Reducer/Hair Straightening Treatment (Step 2), making it suitable for professional salon use.
Effects:
Progressive Straightening: Provides a powerful and long-lasting straightening effect, effectively reducing curls and waves.
Zero Frizz: Eliminates frizz completely, leaving hair perfectly disciplined and smooth.

Hair Alignment: Promotes a strong alignment of the hair cuticles, leading to highly disciplined and manageable hair.
Formaldehyde-Free: Offers a safer application experience, free from the strong fumes and discomfort associated with formaldehyde-based products.
Mode of Use:
As this is a professional-grade treatment, it is crucial to follow the specific instructions provided on the product packaging precisely to ensure safety and achieve optimal results. However, a general mode of use for the Forever Liss Semi-Definitiva Zero Exclusive 3D Technology Set typically involves:
Hair Preparation (Step 1 - Anti-Residue Shampoo):
Wet the hair thoroughly.
Apply the Anti-Residue Shampoo (Step 1) to the hair, massaging gently to create a rich lather. This step is crucial for deeply cleansing the hair and opening the cuticles.
Rinse thoroughly. Repeat the washing process two to three times if necessary, especially for virgin or very resistant hair, ensuring all residues are removed.
After the final rinse, dry the hair completely (100%) with a hairdryer. Do not use a brush at this stage.
Product Application (Step 2 - Volume Reducer/Hair Straightening Treatment):
Shake the Volume Reducer/Hair Straightening Treatment (Step 2) bottle well before use.
Divide the hair into very thin, manageable sections.
Wearing protective gloves, apply the treatment evenly to each section using a brush, starting about 0.5 to 1 cm away from the scalp and working towards the ends. Ensure consistent distribution with a fine-tooth comb.
Allow the product to act for the recommended processing time, usually between 40 to 60 minutes, depending on the hair type (e.g., finer hair needs less time, resistant hair needs more).
Rinsing (Partial or Full):
This step is critical and varies by formulation: Some formaldehyde-free treatments require a partial rinse (e.g., 50% to 80% of the product) to remove excess before drying and flat ironing, while others may require a complete rinse or no rinse at all before drying. Consult the product's specific instructions for the exact rinsing protocol. Generally, for a "Zero" product, a partial rinse to remove excess is common.
Drying and Flat Ironing:
After the instructed rinse, dry the hair 100% with a hairdryer, using a comb to align the strands.
Once the hair is completely dry, divide it again into very thin sections.
Using a professional flat iron, set to the appropriate temperature (typically between 180°C and 230°C / 350°F and 450°F, adjusting for hair condition – lower for delicate/blonde/damaged hair, higher for resistant/coarse hair), pass the iron over each thin section multiple times (e.g., 10-20 times) from roots to ends. This step seals the product into the hair and activates the straightening and smoothing effect.
Finalization:
Allow the hair to cool down completely (around 10-15 minutes).
Optionally, wash the hair with a pH-balancing or post-treatment shampoo and conditioner, then style as desired.
Important Precautions:
Always perform a strand test and a patch test (skin test) prior to full application to check for any allergies, sensitivities, or unwanted color changes, especially on colored, bleached, or previously chemically treated hair.
Ensure the application area is well-ventilated.
Not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
For optimal and prolonged results, use sulfate-free and paraben-free hair care products for maintenance.
