1. CLIENT CONSULTATION
We always recommend that you begin with asking questions about hair traits, hair concerns, chemical history, desired results and client’s committment (Service maintenance requires committment from the client) to help you determine the best steps moving forward with your treatment service.
2. PREPARE THE HAIR
Using an Anti-Residue Clarifying Shampoo, gently shampoo the hair twice, and towel dry the hair very well. Remove the remaining moisture using a blow dryer. SEE DRYING TABLE
IMPORTANT: For overprocessed/fragile or blonde hair - shampoo with a Silk Touch System Shampoo only, for all other hair types shampoo once with Anti-Residue Clarifying Shampoo.
3. SECTION THE HAIR
Wear protective gloves and use a comb to divide hair, sectioning from the forehead to the nape and from ear to ear to create 4 sections. Start with the section at the back of the neck.
4. TREATMENT APPLICATION
SHAKE WELL BEFORE USE. Start with 1-2 oz., adding more to your bowl as needed, depending on the hair length and texture. Take your first 1/4” section starting at the nape, horizontal to your parting. Starting 1/8” from the root, apply a thin layer, saturating evenly to the ends. Continue until all hair is completely saturated with product.
5. PROCESSING TIME
Process the keratin for 20-35 min. w/plastic cap. Comb the hair every 5 minutes while processing; this important step will evenly distribute the product throughout the hair and ensure the smoothest results. SEE APPLICATION TABLE
6. RINSE
Rinse the product completely from the hair with warm water for 10-15 seconds and towel dry.
SEE APPLICATION TABLE
7. BLOW DRY
Apply a few drops of Silk Touch System Serum to protect the ends. Using a Vent Brush blow dry the hair 100% smooth.
EXPERT TIP: For clients with gray, resistant or heavily highlighted hair - allow the hair to completely cool prior to flat ironing to avoid color shift or lift.
8. FLAT IRON
Before using the flat iron, make sure the hair is completely dry. Use a comb to divide the hair, sectioning from the forehead to the nape and from ear to ear to create 4 sections. Adjust the temperature of the flat iron by testing it on the first strand and start from the section at the back of the neck. SEE TEMPERATURE TABLE
EXPERT TIP 1: When using the flat iron, it is recommended to make between 10-12 passes, or until the hair is silky and smooth.
EXPERT TIP 2: Pay close attention to the root area during ironing as it often has more texture or frizz. If the client’s hair is compromised, fine, or heavily processed, keep the iron temperature setting low. If the client has virgin, coarse, very dense, or heavily textured hair, raise the temperature gradually up to 410˚F to 450˚F
9. FINISHING
To add moisture and smooth any fly-aways, you may add a few drops of Silk Touch System Serum for a polished finish. (Optional)

Makeup for special events: shine uniquely!
A special day requires a special look, and bright makeup will be its highlight. Regardless of whether it is a wedding, a corporate event, or a romantic dinner, the right makeup will help you feel confident and unforgettable. An effective skincare routine starts with an effective cleansing routine. Far from being the overly aggressive detergents of yesteryear, today’s cleansers often have gentle, mild formulas that work well with the specific needs of different skin types, removing impurities and make-up residue without stripping the skin of its natural oils.
Make-up should harmonize with your outfit, hairstyle and accessories.
If you’ve been following Care to Beauty for a while, you that our specialty is French pharmacy skincare. These were the first brands we worked with and we continue to identify with their ethos–for us, there’s nothing better than gentle skincare products that focus on resolving skin concerns without disrupting the skin barrier.
If you’re looking to replenish your skincare stash with French pharmacy products at discounted prices, we have offers of up to 50%–time to stock up on iconic moisturizers like Avenge Tolerance Control Soothing Skin Recovery Cream, or rich lip balms like NUKE Rave de Miel Honey Lip Balm Ultra Nourishing and Repairing.
Here at Care to Beauty, we’re sunscreen evangelists: if you use nothing else in your daily skincare routine, use sunscreen. Sunscreen has multiple benefits, ranging from the cosmetic (it helps prevent photoaging and some forms of dark spots and hyperpigmentation) to the health-related (it’s our first line of defense against skin cancer). Between mineral and chemical sunscreens, tinted or untinted, in milky or creamy textures, or even gel-like consistencies, there’s a world of sunscreen options out there, so we know there’s one for you.
