How to Use (Single Step)
As a "single step" product, the application process is simplified, generally without the need for a specific pre-treatment shampoo. However, it is essential to perform a strand test and sensitivity test before full application to ensure compatibility and avoid adverse reactions.
Here is a general mode of use:
Preparation:
Wash hair with a regular shampoo (not necessarily a deep cleansing one, unless hair is very dirty or oily), towel-dry it completely, and divide it into 4 sections.
Important: Some single-step product manufacturers recommend applying the product to dry hair, while others suggest applying it to slightly damp hair. Always check the specific instructions on your product's packaging.
Product Application:
Using a brush and a fine-tooth comb, apply the Rice Water Sealing section by section, spreading the product evenly from roots to ends.
Ensure all sections are well saturated with the product, but avoid excess. Remove any excess with the fine-tooth comb.
Maintain a safe distance from the scalp (approximately 0.5 to 1 cm).
Processing Time:
Allow the product to act for a determined time, which may vary according to hair type and resistance. Recommendations usually range from 10 to 60 minutes.
Finer or chemically treated hair may require less time.
More resistant, curly, or virgin hair may need a longer processing time.
Drying:
After the processing time, dry hair 90% with a blow dryer and a wide-tooth comb, aligning the strands. It is not necessary to rinse the product at this stage.
Flat Ironing (Sealing):
Divide the hair back into 4 sections.
With a professional flat iron, iron very thin sections 10 to 15 times each, or until you feel the strands are sealed and intensely shiny.
The flat iron temperature should be adjusted to the hair type: use higher temperatures (up to 230°C/450°F) for resistant and virgin hair, and lower temperatures for blonde, fine, or damaged hair.
Rinsing and Finishing (Optional):
Allow hair to cool for about 10 minutes.
If desired, you can rinse your hair with water and apply a nourishing mask, work it in, rinse again, and then dry and style as preferred. This step helps to further seal the cuticle and provide extra treatment.
Important Precautions:
Strand and Sensitivity Test: Essential before application to verify product compatibility with your hair and prevent allergic reactions.
Professional Use: Although it's a single step, correct application and flat ironing are crucial for the success of the treatment and the safety of the hair. Professional supervision is always recommended.
Storage: Keep the product out of reach of children, in a cool, ventilated place, and away from light.
