Why Do I have to Praise Someone Just For Doing Their Job?

By Liz Uram Do you ever feel like there is way too much appreciation going

on in your workplace? If you said no, you’re not alone. Your team would probably say the same thing. A Gallup survey revealed

that 65% of employees haven’t received recognition in the last year. This directly correlates to the studies that consistently report that 2/3 of American workers are disengaged.

Employees who don’t receive recognition are 51% more likely

to look for another job; are less motivated to produce more and better work; and they are less likely to respect you as a leader.

It’s easy to see that one of the most important communication

skills in a leader’s skill kit is the ability to give positive feedback.

EDITORIAL LETTER

by Jessica De Vault Hale

Get Quality Hair Care With Quality Electrical Tools When we think of hair and beauty products, it’s easy to focus our attention only on wet products. However, there’s an entire world of electrical items to consider, as well. Without flat irons and blow dryers, we’d hardly have any reason to use heat protectants. A barber has no need to use alcohol products on his clients if he isn’t going to use a set of clippers to trim their hair.

Wet products and electrical items go hand-in-hand. That’s why we dedicated an entire issue to the wonderful world of hair and skin appliances. You can’t have quality hair care without quality electrical products. These big-ticket items can drive sales for your store. While it’s common to lock up these items and keep them behind your register, remember that these electrical items should be visible to the customer so they can know exactly what you have on hand. Don’t miss a sale because a shopper failed to see what was available in your store.

Need some inspiration for your next inventory purchase? Check out our Top 5, featuring our highest selling electrical products on page 38. And you can encourage your customers to buy more by telling them about some of the most popular leavein conditioners and heat protectants on the market. We curated a list of our favorite 12 conditioners on page 10 for your easy reference! And in this month’s feature story, we compiled a list of our favorite electrical items for at-home use – because not all of your customers are professionals. Check it out on page 36.

MARKET PLACE

Conditioners & Heat Protectants After cleansing your hair, the next step must be a leave-in conditioner and styling aid. There are leave-in and styling products for just about every need. Whether you need a conditioner for hydration, definition or heat styling, there’s something out there for everyone. We compiled a list of our favorite leave-in conditioners and heat protectants because both protect the hair and can make or break the health of the hair. Check out our 12 favorites and ensure your store has these products available for customers.

Strengthening Leave-In

When the goal is to have strong and clean hair, you’ll naturally reach for the Taliah Waajid Thick and Full Bamboo and Coconut Milk Moisturizing Mint Shampoo.

This sulfate-free shampoo restores, moisturizes and strengthens the scalp and hair for strong, healthy hair.

Curl Milk

For instantly lush, hydrated tresses, the Triple Butter Hydrate & Define Curl Milk Leave-In is your best bet. Infused with moisture-rich Mango Butter, curl-enhancing Murumuru Butter and softening shea butter, your hair is sure to thank you for using this nourishing conditioner.

Repairing Leave-In

Shea Butter is a popular ingredient to use in leave-ins, but the Earth Supplied Moisture & Repair Leave-In Conditioner boasts a formulation made of 20% African Shea Butter and Southeast Asian Coconut Oil to replenish moisture, detangle, soften, and repair coily and curly hair. This is a great option for dry, coarse hair.

10

OTC Beauty Magazine November 2020

Restorative Conditioner

Grapeseed continues to be a power ingredient used in leave-in and wash-out conditioners alike. This simple ingredient can become the star player and help with a variety of issues. One of our favorites is the Cantu Grapeseed Strengthening Repair Leave-In that’s infused with kiwi, rosemary and shea butter. This conditioner repairs and restores dry, brittle hair to its natural, healthy state.

Thermal Protector Spray

When adding heat to your hair, you want to be sure you have a protectant on your strands to avoid heat damage.

For extreme-heat styling (think: a blowout), try the Dominican Magic Thermal Protector Spray. Formulated with amino acids complex, this spray binds to the hair to protect it from heat-generated styling.

Cleansing Shampoo

When your tresses need a dose of moisture, you’ll fall in love with the Mielle White Peony Leave-In Conditioner. Chock full of organic and natural ingredients, this product will give you the moisture and protection your hair deserves. Tame those frizzies and flyaways with this popular conditioner.

Conditioners & Heat Protectants

Silkening Serum

There’s nothing worse than blowing out your hair, only to be left with frizzy, dry tresses. The ORS HAIRepair Silkening Serum Thermal Protector helps put a stop to that. The multi-benefit, oil-enriched serum not only improves moisture and shine, but it protects against thermal damage — the end result: silky, smooth hair without the frizz.

Conditioning Heat Protectant

Can you add heat and condition your hair at the same time?

With the Pantene Pro-V Gold Series Thermal Heat Protector, you can do just that. Infused with Argan oil to help prevent heat damage, this wonderful ingredient aids in resisting breakage and leaves hair looking smooth and beautiful.

Exotic Shine

The Creme of Nature Argan Oil Heat Protector Smooth & Shine Blow Out Creme is another great option for heat protectants. The cream can protect hair up to 450°F during the blow drying process. It smoothes hair, leaving it full of body with Exotic Shine™.

When your tresses need an instant boost of hydration, look no further than the Lottabody Milk & Honey Nourish Me Leave-in Conditioner. Restore dry, rough strands back to a moisturized state with one use. Perfect for detangling and frizz control.

Strengthening Protectant

Protecting textured strands is a must, but if your shoppers are looking for something that will repair the hair and protect it from the damage of electric tools, recommend the SheaMoisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Strengthen & Grow Thermal Protectant. The spray contains reparative omegas that repair and protect curls and coils.

Blow-Out Spray

When a shopper is looking to blow out their curly hair to create an afro, they’ll fall in love with the Afro Sheen ‘Fro Out Blow-Out Spray. It moisturizes and protects against heat damage; it also smooths the hair, stops frizz in its tracks and adds shine.

The Truth About Hair Grease (Hair Dress) Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment-Now Broadly Available To Drive Your Textured Hair Sales Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment has no sulfates, no mineral oil, is not tested on animals and is “konscious,” just like the many consumers that have made it a part of their hair regimen.

This allows versatile style creators to be confident and use products that promote healthier hair.

Kuza® 100% Indian Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment has a blend of fine oils (including Coconut, Sweet Almond & Avocado) and natural herbs. Soybean Oil is also included, and it is an unsung hero for moisture retention. Naturally Curly shared in April 2018 that soybean oil’s main asset to hair is moisture retention because it is full of good fatty acids, manganese, and vitamins.

“Kuza® 100% Hemp Hair & Scalp Treatment is wonderful for curly, coily and kinky hair. It seals in moisture for the many textured/highly textured hairstyles we love to wear, and it does it affordably,” Lane says. “The truth about hair dress/grease is that it is the best way to seal in moisture.

BUSINESS TIPS

Does Your Corporate Culture Get All The proactive process to shape the team culture you want A’s?

It’s an instant gratification world where people/employees/leaders want things to change immediately. They want progress to be a flip of a switch.

They want the easy button. Every leader, team and organization wants to snap their fingers and magically arrive at their desired outcomes.

Assess — Many cultures don’t even know where they are on the map.

Where are you succeeding and where are you falling short? You’ve got to be honest about your current state as a culture. Momentum begins to build when you can establish urgency and identify opportunities to improve.

However, developing people and culture doesn’t happen like that. There is no quick fix or hack to developing leaders and the team culture you desire. It’s a process. It takes commitment, discipline and focus. The most compelling team and organizational cultures invest time, energy and resources into shaping the culture they want, not just the culture they’ve experienced in the past. They know that one of their greatest competitive advantages in today’s day is not just WHAT they do as a company, but the culture of HOW they do it. People want to be a part of a compelling culture and contribute their skills to something greater than themselves.

Align — People are the lifeblood of every team and organization and in

Every team and company wants to be known for having an amazing culture, but only some understand how they are created and are disciplined enough to lead a culture-shaping process. If you’ve studied change theory in your spare time (you know, the process for how any person or group stimulates change) then you understand the reality that we grow as individuals and groups one step at a time.

All change follows the same pattern. The best leaders and teams on the planet know that growing the ecosystem they desire within their organization takes proactive leadership and support. The best team cultures don’t just magically happen, they are intentionally designed and led along the process. And it’s not a top-down dictator style of leadership that is compelling to people, but a participatory style that invites cross-functional representation throughout the organization to share in the dreaming and creation of the culture they desire.

The process to create your culture requires 6 A’s and participatory leadership: 24

OTC Beauty Magazine November 2020

today’s world your people want to participate. They want their mind and heart to be engaged and connected to the “Why,” the Mission at the heart of your efforts. It takes time and space to establish alignment with your people and constant efforts to stay in alignment along the way.

Aspire — What do you want to be different in the future? You have to be able to dream together and paint the vision for the future culture you desire. Give your people the opportunity to see beyond your current reality and into possibilities for a newly created future.

Articulate — If you can’t describe where you’re going and the values you want to guide you as a culture then you can’t be surprised when it doesn’t exist. Your people need common language and the ability to see and share the story of where you’re heading, together. “Language drives behavior” so the best cultures have compelling language linked to actions and behaviors for the future they are creating.

Act — All change requires action. However, action without vision and alignment is a nightmare. Once the aspirational vision for the culture is established, the best leaders and teams empower a bias toward action and identify the next steps they will take to stimulate progress. All change happens when actions grow out of an intentional vision and spirit.

Anchor — Culture-shaping is not a drive-thru experience. It’s not a onetime company meeting or a singular poster on the wall. Every culture must create habits that anchor the values within their organizational ecosystem.

The organization intentionally anchors them with their structures for how

they hire, onboard employees, identify emerging leaders, do performance evaluations, raise the bar on leadership at all levels, and develop and empower culture ambassadors.

It’s way easier to ignore studying, practicing, engaging with your people, and just put your head down and “do your job.” And because that is easier, that’s why many team cultures do not become compelling places to work.

So, does your team culture get all A’s?

The process for developing high-performing and engaged cultures never stops and the best leaders, teams and organizations are committed to the continuous journey of development, vision, communication, engagement, authenticity, and action.

Good grades don’t just magically happen. Great schools, great companies, great teams, great communities, and great collections of humans anywhere and of any kind in the world, don’t just magically happen. They are grown, developed, cultivated and led with intentionality.

Good luck on your next test. I hope you get all A’s.

Why Do I Have to Praise Someone Just For Doing Their Job?

4

And Other Questions Leaders Have About Appreciation Do you ever feel like there is way too much appreciation going on in your workplace? If you said no, you’re not alone. Your team would probably say the same thing.

A Gallup survey revealed that 65% of employees haven’t received recognition in the last year. This directly correlates to the studies that consistently report that 2/3 of American workers are disengaged.

Employees who don’t receive recognition are 51% more likely to look for another job; are less motivated to produce more and better work; and they are less likely to respect you as a leader.

often if they received personal recognition for their efforts.

That seems like a good return on investment for a few sincere words of appreciation.

I don’t need praise, why do they?

Who knows? Everyone has different internal drives that determine what motivates them. Recognition is one of the top motivators along with challenging work; growth opportunities; job security; being part of a team; and compensation.

It’s easy to see that one of the most important communication skills in a leader’s skill kit is the ability to give positive feedback. This is also one of the most underdeveloped skills for many leaders. The reason is that some leaders just don’t know where to start.

If you happen to be motivated by growth opportunities you may not understand why someone needs a pat on the back.

You might even think they are being needy. Beware. That kind of thinking is a barrier to your own growth and could hold you back from achieving your goals.

Here are the 5 most common questions leaders have about giving praise:

The best leaders understand that everyone is different and they meet people where they’re at without judgement.

Why should I praise someone for just doing their job?

Two words – positive reinforcement.

Do you want them to keep doing their job? Keep this phrase in mind: what gets rewarded gets repeated. If you want them to keep doing their job let them know that their work is appreciated.

How do I give praise without sounding phony?

The secret to meaningful recognition is to make it sincere, specific, and timely.

1.

One study concluded that 81% of employees would produce better work more 26

OTC Beauty Magazine November 2020

Sincere. This part is easy. If you are specific and timely and you are genuine with your praise you will automatically come across as sincere.

OTC Beauty Magazine November 2020

27

2.

3.

Specific. Instead of a generic ‘Good job!’, try saying ‘Thanks for taking the initiative to help John get that order out. I really appreciate your teamwork.’ The person is more likely to repeat the behavior when they know what the praise is for.

Timely. Say it as close to the event as possible. If you wait it loses its impact. Follow this rule for keeping your praise timely: when you see it, say it.

Should I praise in public or in private?

You should give your praise where the employee is most comfortable.

However, many leaders are hesitant to give recognition in public. They worry that it will create jealousy or resentment. Forget those fears.

One benefit of praising in public is that it shows the lower performers what’s possible. It can actually be the shot in the arm they need to step up.

Looking for opportunities to give shout-outs for positive behaviors, both big and small, in public creates a culture of appreciation.

You might even notice team members praising each other which will result in increased morale and trust. One study showed that 90% of direct reports agree that team spirit is increased when the leader provides appreciation and support.

Meet Liz Uram

How often should I offer praise?

We know that once-a-year praise is not enough, but many leaders don’t know how often they should acknowledge good work. This is a good question because praising too often can be as bad as not praising often enough. Running around giving high-fives, thumbs up, and generic ‘thanks’ is exhausting for you and uninspiring to your team.

A good rule of thumb is to provide positive praise to each person on your team once a week. I know what you’re thinking... some people aren’t doing anything worth praising on a weekly basis. Look harder.

the role of “mom-ager” for her daughter’s modeling career, raised money for charity and looked for love and spirituality. With much anticipation of a third season, viewers will see how the heroic LisaRaye has finally come full circle in her journey.

Voted one of the “Top Five Rising Female Stars” by Ebony Magazine and twice voted “Sexiest Woman of the Year” by Black Men Magazine, LisaRaye initially captured Hollywood’s attention through her breakout performance as ‘Diamond’ in Ice Cube’s directorial debut film, “The Players Club,” costarring Academy Award winner Jamie Foxx. She starred as the leading role in “Contradictions of the Heart” and continued to work with notable actors such as Queen Latifah in MGM’s “Beauty Shop,” Terrence Howard in the indie feature “Love Chronicles,” Omar Epps in Paramount’s “The Wood,” and Mos Def in “Civil Brand” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.

In television, LisaRaye appeared in “The Parent ‘Hood,” “In the House” and was featured on Bravo’s “The It Factor” before she landed her starring role on the CW Network’s hit comedy series “All of Us.” Produced and inspired by the domestic adventures of Will and Jada Smith, the show focused on adults juggling ex-spousal relationships while maintaining a nurturing environment for their child. Since concluding her time in “All of Us,” LisaRaye has appeared alongside Jada Smith in her show “Hawthorne.”

Off-screen, LisaRaye captured the hearts of hopeless romantics worldwide as she became a real-life aristocrat upon marrying the former Premier of the Turks and Caicos Islands in an extravagant ‘royal’ wedding attended by celebrities and dignitaries such as former BFF Vivica A. Fox, Rapper Da Brat (McCoy’s sister), Ambassador Andrew Young and Perry Christie, the Prime Minister of the Bahamas. She wore a one-of-a-kind couture gown by Amsale and a Chopard tiara from the personal collection of the only other American actress to marry a royal, Princess Grace Kelly of Monaco.

As the former Turks and Caicos First Lady, LisaRaye juggled her busy Hollywood career while serving as an ambassador for the British Overseas Territory, with official duties that included state visits with the Queen of England. She was the face of an extensive ad campaign for the TCI Board of Tourism and created industry-focused events to increase the island’s appeal as a playground for the rich and famous. Her successes include founding the Turks and Caicos Film Festival with fellow actress Jasmine Guy, as well as the island’s first Christmas Carnival; developing the island’s only movie theater, the state-of-the-art LRaye Cinema; and attracting stars such as Will and Jada Smith, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones, Star Jones, Gabrielle Union, Lil’ Kim, Donovan McNabb, Michael Clarke Duncan, Chris Tucker, Essence Atkins and Shaun Robinson for visits.

Later, rumors of her husband’s infidelity and political corruption brought the fairytale to an end, and LisaRaye persevered through a long, bitter and very public divorce.

With her Hollywood comeback firmly established and her career on the rise, LisaRaye continues to use her celebrity to highlight issues close to her heart. She is the Global Ambassador for the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® foundation and passionate about the organization’s mission to promote early detection and screenings for women. In addition, she created the Miss Rayediant Jewels teen pageant to increase self-esteem and mentor girls aged 13-15. LisaRaye resides in Los Angeles, California, and is a proud mother to daughter, Kai.

Singer, Actress and Dancer

Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas Singer, Actress and Dancer

Atlanta native Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas is the embodiment of the term triple threat. The singer/actress/dancer is best known as Chilli, one-third of the iconic R&B group TLC. Comprised of Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins, Lisa “Left-Eye” Lopes and Chilli, TLC is one of the greatest musical groups of all time, having several No. 1 singles, selling over 45 million albums worldwide and winning countless awards, including six Grammy’s and

three American Music Awards.

TLC tackled self-esteem issues and blasted the industry’s often distorted standard of beauty. The group received a large outpouring of appreciation letters and videos from fans. The Grammy-award winning single “Waterfalls” aggressively tackled the stereotypes associated with AIDS/ HIV and solidified the group as leaders of the AIDS education/awareness movement.

Anyone who spends time in her presence knows that Chilli’s number one priority when it comes to charity is her non-profit organization, “Chilli’s Crew,” which works to empower middle and high school-aged females; but she also uses the events as an opportunity to empower the parents to be more vocal.

Her hit VH1 show, “What Chilli Wants,” offered a glimpse into her life as a single mother raising a responsible son, juggling career and family while being open to the idea of finding true love. “What Chilli Wants” was the No. 1 show on the spring ratings for VH1.

She is beautiful, youthful, has an undeniable sex appeal and yet after a conversation with her, women find themselves confiding in her as if she were their best friend. Her ability to be transparent yet endearing is what continues to make her a fan favorite of all ages.

5 Electrical Tools That Every DIY-Stylist and Barber Need “

There are certain tools that you should always have on hand in case of an emergency. Most of us own a hammer or a screwdriver for any at-home DIY projects. But what about our hair? Don’t we all need certain tools for our delicate tresses, too? When it comes to the essentials, having the appropriate styling tools can make or break a hairstyle. That’s why every at-home stylist needs to keep several basic electrical appliances around to ensure they’re always prepared.

That’s why we gathered our five favorite tools that we’re convinced should be in every household. Help your shoppers stay on top of any hair crisis with these must-haves.

Flat Iron

”

Whether you’re a natural hair girl

or prefer to wear your chemicallyprocessed tresses bone straight,

a flat iron is an absolute necessity.

But applying temperatures upward

of 450 degrees on your strands can

be detrimental to your hair health, so picking the right iron is highly

important. That’s why we’re a fan

of the FHI Heat Platform Ti Sleek

Titanium Pro Styler. This premium

flat iron features titanium plates,

infused with magnesium to heat up

quicker and transfer heat to the hair

faster for smoother, silkier results.

Thanks to its extended plates, this iron can also make styling easier,

while moisture-locking negative ions keep the hair healthy and hydrated.

Pressing Comb

Many of your shoppers have experienced a pressing

comb at least once in their life. These heavy, brass combs are often left on a stovetop to heat up. Once heated

through, the comb is used to straighten coarse, kinky

hair. These days, the old-fashioned varieties are being

replaced with electrical combs like the Challenger Electric Pressing Comb. This comb has strategically straightened teeth to avoid snagging or damaging your hair as

you straighten it, making this a critical tool that won’t compromise the health of the hair.

Trimmer

Many fellas found themselves avoiding the barbershop this year in light of COVID-19.

While many shops are back open now, this season has shown many that one must always be prepared to do their own hair at home. With a steady hand and the right

trimmers, gentlemen can keep their hair at a reasonable length until they are able to

see a professional. Our favorite pick for this tool is the BaByliss PRO Silver FX Skeleton Trimmer. This cordless unit has an adjustable, zero-gap T-Bade and a high-torque, brushless Ferrari-designed engine to give you optimal service.

Hair Waver

When you’re looking for easy, tousled

curls, ditch the curling wand or iron to

create individual ringlets. Thanks to the Gold ‘N Hot Jumbo

Ceramic Triple Barrel Waver, those easy-going waves can be achieved

effortlessly. It can reach temperatures up to 450°F, but it’s ceramic technology still protects the hair’s natural moisture and luster and helps reduce static and frizz.

Clippers

If you’re looking to cut and style your own hair, you can ditch the barbershop with a set of trimmers and clippers. Since choosing the right tool can be tricky, the

Wahl Barber Combo takes out all of the guesswork. The pack comes with The

Legend – a fast, cool-running clipper that features a “crunch” blade technology

for cleaner cuts and longer throws – and The Hero – a miniature T-blade trimmer

that’s perfect for lining up your hairline and designing artwork. Together, you can preserve your haircut until you make it back to the barbershop.

CLIPPER TIPS Sponsored by Andis Co.

New Beard Beginnings

By Danny Amorim Andis Educator

During these unprecedented times, we’ve all had to make adjustments. For me personally, one of those adjustments happens to be about beards! Since masks and beards are not very compatible, you may find yourself facing the decision to cut off some length just like me. I had sported a long, burly beard for quite a few years and finally decided to just take off the length. It was an extremely tough decision to make, but after wearing a mask for six to eight hours a day, it began to leave a ring around my beard.

I first used the Andis Cordless Envy® Li Andis Nation Fade clipper for some freehand sculpting, gradually cutting it down in increments until I reached the desired length and shape.

This approach ensures you don’t cut off too much. Next, I used the #8 attachment comb to trim down a little more on the sides and cheeks, moving to a #6 and then a #4 to give it a smoother transition at the sideburns and up into my haircut. Finishing with the Andis Cordless T-Outliner®, I gave me a clean line underneath and defined the back ends of my beard. Cordless tools are definitely the way to go, whether for yourself or on a client.

For anyone looking to make that leap to a shorter beard, it’s worth noting that a good cut and shape-up is actually very healthy for it. Change can be good, and can even take years off your appearance. Let’s not let COVID-19 change the beard culture. Instead, let’s learn to adapt and embrace change along with new beard beginnings.

Danny Amorim is a master barber, platform artist and instructor known for his ever-changing facial hair looks. He is also the owner of three Klippers Barbershops based in New Jersey. Danny continues to familiarize himself with the current trends and products to stay ahead of the fast-paced barber and beauty industry and embraces every opportunity to grow professionally.

THERAPY TRENDS The Strength of Fortifying Sales

By Elayne McClaine

CURLY, WAVY, OR

Haircare dollars are spent mainly on beautifying instead of fortifying. OTC consumers are under attack. They are experiencing battle fatigue from thermal styling, anti-aging and chemical excesses, both internal and external. Consumers experience many maladies that suppress the density and vibrancy of their hair: medication, thermal styling, pollution and other environmental stress. Often, the products designed to beautify the hair are the same products that deliver damage.

Several factors attack hair and scalp. When there is an outbreak of thinning strands, blistered cuticles, or chemical fatigue, consumers need strength. Strengthening products begin at the root and must also address the loss of density along the strand.

Manufacturers are creating formulas that feature a myriad of exotic fruits, seeds and extracts. All across the globe, there are products that are used to strengthen and reinforce hair with fiber sealing serums, fermented minerals and bio-functional peptides. The sophistication of these formulas is often launched by smaller brands that have sourced remedies from Africa, Brazil and China. Larger firms are addressing the issues with targeted systems against relaxers or hair color formulations. OTCs need to take leadership in featuring these products. Efforts to create awareness is typically promoted online.

SILKY STRAIGHT STYLES

Your consumers may respond better to this category if they are merchandised in an off-shelf therapeutic section. This is not about dull hair that needs conditioning! These remedies are being developed to restore, regrow or repair hair that has lost its density, rate of growth, and ability to style. There are products that offer stem cell and fibroblast therapy. Consumers recognize that hair strength will come from proven remedies that are a cut above those used to moisturize and condition. Several online brands are featuring the serious science behind the need to fortify sales with proven remedies. OTC customers are aware.

Elayne McClaine has identified and developed emerging domestic and global trends in hair care, skincare and other consumer categories for such firms as Chesebrough-Pond’s, Revlon and Pharmacia (div. of Pfizer). Her expertise in therapeutic treatments for hair, skin and scalp led to the creation of the Women’s Institute for Fine and Thinning Hair, sponsored by Rogaine.

McClaine has been acknowledged by the American Academy of Dermatologists for marketing and promotional excellence.

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT

ApHogee Two-Step Protein Treatment There’s nothing worse than dealing with dry, brittle hair or tresses that are too moisturized for their own good. When you run into any of these dilemmas, reach for ApHogees’s Two-Step Protein Treatment and Balancing Moisturizer.

The Two-Step Protein Treatment process was developed to repair severely damaged hair, including hair that is breaking off, over-processed, over-bleached, severely damaged, and it can also be used as a pre-treatment to coloring hair. No method is better at repairing damaged hair than a two-step approach. This remedial process is highly recommended for hair that: • • • • •

It is too weak or fine to take a perm or relaxer. (use the week PRIOR to service) It is over-bleached.

It will not hold color. (use PRIOR to a color application for 30% less fade after 10 shampoos) Breaks when combed or brushed.

It is mushy when wet and brittle after drying.

Once you’ve used the Two-Step Protein Treatment, you can then choose to move on to the Balancing Moisturizer. This is a moisturizing conditioner that contains ApHogee’s exclusive Pro-Phytamine complex, a blend of collagen amino acids, emollients, vitamin derivatives and herbal extracts.

Used separately, it helps protect styles in humidity and is recommended as a regimen for processed hair, dryness and the ends of long hair.
