DIRECTIONS

Preparation Of The Hair: 
Carefully follow recommended processing times and directions for use to avoid hair loss, hair breakage or skin irritation. Perform a strand test prior to application even if your client has previously used this or a similar straightening product in the past. Strand Test: Wearing gloves, separate a small portion of hair at the back of the neck. Apply the reducing agent evenly to the portion, starting about ¼ inch from the scalp (if the hair has already been straightened, only apply to new growth). Comb the reducing agent through the hair very carefully, without force. Follow processing time for application directions not to exceed 15 minutes.

In case of irritation, rinse immediately and thoroughly with warm water.
During processing time, check the hair regularly every 2-3 minutes, until you achieve desired straightness; if desired straightness is achieved before the end of the processing time, use this time for overall application and more to the rinsing step. Never exceed this time. Proceed to apply rods using the Step 2 Shape Transformer. Follow application directions. Do not exceed maximum processing time.
Keep the gloves on to rinse the hair thoroughly with warm water and apply Step 3 Shape Lock for 10 minutes. Rinse thoroughly, dry and check that hair does not break and that the scalp is not irritated. If hair breaks or scalp is irritated during or after the test, do not use this product.

Application: Wear suitable, disposable gloves during application and rinsing of the product.
Apply the reducing agent starting about a ¼ inch from the scalp. If the hair has already been straightened, only apply to new growth. Use a timer. The application time must be counted in the total processing time.
Do not leave the reducing agent in contact with the hair for more than the time determined by the strand test; never exceed the maximum total processing time of 15 minutes. If the duration of the processing time is exceeded before the application is finished, rinse the treated area.
Do not pull hair during application. Do not leave treated hair in contact with skin.
Rinse thoroughly with warm water for at least 5 minutes until all traces of the reducing agent Step 1 Shape Release are eliminated. Keep the rinse water from running into the eyes. In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water and consult a physician. Apply Step 2 Shape Transformer follow instructions carefully.
