My first cleanse for both routines: the Soothing Scalp Care Shampoo.
STEP 01
Start with a fresh foundation.
Before you begin, wet your hair and gently detangle. If you are coming out of a protective style, start by lightly misting your hair with a spray bottle instead of fully saturating it. Over-saturating tangled hair after a protective style can make tangles harder to work through. Take your time and detangle from the ends toward the roots before adding shampoo. Complete your shampoo steps before moving on to conditioner.
Kenra Triple Repair Shampoo
An additional step when hair feels weak, shows signs of damage, or is coming out of a protective style. Use when needed.
Kenra Platinum Luxe Shine Shampoo
For silk press prep, follow with Luxe Shine Shampoo. Gently detangle again during this moisturizing shampoo step, working from the ends toward the roots.
Amika Hydro Rush Shampoo
For natural style prep, follow with Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Shampoo. Gently detangle again during this moisturizing shampoo step, working from the ends toward the roots.
STEP 02
Condition with intention.
After all shampoo steps, choose the conditioning path for your routine. Detangle again after applying conditioner, working gently from the ends toward the roots.
Kenra Triple Repair Conditioner
If you use Kenra Triple Repair Shampoo, you must also use Kenra Triple Repair Conditioner. You can create a conditioner cocktail by mixing it with Kenra Platinum Luxe Shine Conditioner.
Kenra Platinum Luxe Shine Conditioner
This conditioner provides extra shine and helps soften the hair shaft, with or without an additional treatment. Make this your final step in the wash process if you do not need a treatment. Leave on for 3 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
Amika Hydro Rush Conditioner
Use the Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Conditioner after shampooing.
STEP 03
Treatments tailored to your hair.
Treatments are tailored to your hair’s condition, porosity, and individual needs and can be used with any styling process. During your salon visit, I’ll help you choose the best option for your hair.

Stimulating Super Moisturizing Conditioner. A treatment option selected for your hair’s needs.

Matrix Food For Soft Rich Hydrating Treatment Mask

STEP 04
Prep. Protect. Get ready.
Detangling throughout the wash process helps keep your hair pliable and makes the next steps of prepping and sectioning for blow-drying easier. Apply the products in the order below. Keep application light and adjust the amount to your hair’s density, length and needs.
01 · Mizani 25 Miracle Milk
For general use, apply 3 to 4 pumps of Mizani 25 Miracle Milk to your hair.
01 · Amika Hydro Rush Leave-In
Start with Hydro Rush Intense Moisture Leave-In Conditioner.
02 · Kenra Silkening Heat Crème
The next prep step for both routines. Use 1 pump for fine hair or 2 pumps for thick, coarse hair. If your hair is past your shoulders, use 2 pumps regardless of texture.
03 · Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Serum
An additional prep step for the silk press routine. Use 1 pump for fine hair or 2 pumps for thick, coarse hair. If your hair is past your shoulders, use 2 pumps regardless of texture.
Finish · Kenra Platinum Blow-Dry Spray
The final prep product for both routines, before blow-drying.
STEP 05
