CHELATING AGENTS AND PREPARATORY SERVICES

Before coloring, bleaching, or a perm, hair preparation makes the difference. In this category, you will find chelating agents and pre-treatments that eliminate product residue and mineral deposits, or protect the fiber and scalp before technical services. Some examples: OLAPLEX Broad Spectrum Chelating Treatment and L'OREAL Serie Expert Metal Detox Pre-Treatment.

Alongside chelating agents, there are deep-cleansing shampoos, primers, and scalp protectors. Choose based on the service you need to perform and the condition of the hair: if there is a lot of residue, start with a deep cleanse; if the fiber is fragile, opt for a protective pre-treatment. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for application.
