Redken Shape Control Reducer 8.45 Oz

Redken Shape Control Reducer.
Step 1: Reduce.
Redken Shape Control Reducers allow you to reshape the inner structure of the hair.
There are three reducer formulas to choose from based on hair type:
-Sensitized. For hair that has been sensitized from chemical treatments.
- Normal. For finr to medium hair that has not been chemically treated.
- Resistant. For medium to coarse, resistant hair that has not been chemically treated.
All three reducers have a rich, creamy texture and are fortified with cationic conditioners to provide softness and shine, smoothing waxes for frizz taming and detangling, and dithioglycolic acid to minimize the risk of breakage. They also contain a specially developed odor-neutralizing fragrance for optimum comfort for both you and your client.
DIRECTIONS:
1. Clarify and cleanse hair, then divide into four quadrants.
2. Beginning in the nape, take a 1/4 to 1/2 inch horizontal slice and apply the Reducer with a brush, starting 1/4 inch from the scalp and extending through to the ends. Complete both back quadrants. In the front quadrant, switch to vertical sections and complete the entire head.
3. Process according to the instructions for the formula that you’ve selected—Normal, Resistant or Sensitized. Do not exceed maximum development time of 30 minutes. Rinse hair thoroughly, 5 to 10 minutes.
4. Working one quadrant at a time, dry hair with hands until it is 80% dry. Hair should not be completely dry before smoothing. Beginning in the nape, take 1/8 to 1/4 inch horizontal slices. Place a ceramic flat iron approximately 1/8 inch from the scalp and iron each parting 2-3 times. Complete the quadrant. Dry the next quadrant to 80% and iron in the same manner. Work through all quadrants until the entire head is complete.
5. Begin in the nape and take a 1/4 to 1/2 horizontal slice. Apply the cream neutralizer 1/4 to 1/2 from scalp through the ends. Smooth hair with gloved fingers. Process 10 minutes. Rinse hair thoroughly for 5 to 10 minutes with warm water, ensuring that the product is completely eliminated. Towel and style the hair.

For cold smoothing service (without flat iron): Follow steps 1 through step 3.
