First Look O Straight Story Grant your clients’ wishes for achieving permanent sleek-straight strands without damage using the new Organic Ceratin Systems rganic Salon Systems is devoted to delivering products that protect hair health and contain as many natural and organic ingredients as possible, and the new Organic Ceratin Systems permanent straightening treatment is no exception. The formaldehyde-, thioglycolates-, ammonia-, paraben-and sodium hydroxide-free technology is designed to not only condition hair, but also to strengthen it by penetrating deep into the cortex, rebuilding each strand during the treatment. The plant-derived keratin works to repair existing damage, while the cysteamine amino acid realigns the bonds that give hair its unmanageable curly or frizzy texture. The range— including Sealing Conditioner, Setting Lock, Smoothing Gel, Straightening Lotion, Strength Adjuster and Structure Spray—is also fortifi ed with organic oils and extracts like chamomile and calendula for optimum shine and conditioning. “I’m thrilled to have a permanent straightening system that also provides a reparative effect for the hair,” says Jennifer Andrews of Roots Salon in St. Petersburg, FL. “It’s like doing a relaxer and a conditioning smoothing treatment in one step. organicsalonsystems.com —M.R.
