You know that feeling when your curls and coils are poppin', and you've got that extra pep in your step? The key to great hair days is all about keeping those locks conditioned weightlessly and doing so is a science. Lucky for you, we’ve got just the tips you need to soften, smooth, and detangle your curls and coils. 


If the whole DIY hair routine isn't your thing, no problem. We've got your back with the K18 PRO service in the salon. Your stylist will start with K18 pro chelating hair complex and detox shampoo to get rid of metals and buildup. After towel drying, they'll work their magic with the K18 professional molecular repair hair mask, clinically proven to reverse the damage and restore softness, smoothness, and bounce in just four minutes. After waiting four minutes, your stylist will condition with the DAMAGE SHIELD protective conditioner, applied from mid-lengths to ends. The result? Curls and coils that are defined, softened, and so easy to detangle, you'll wonder why you didn't do this sooner.

K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH protective shampoo + protective conditioner

haircare at home

Now, for those days in between your glam sessions (aka salon visits), meet your new essential routine: the K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH protective shampoo + protective conditioner. Think of them as your secret weapon to shield your healthiest hair against the daily trio of trouble: mechanical styling, sun, and pollution. These aggressors can wreak havoc on your hair, causing everything from breakage to frizz and even dulling your color.


The DAMAGE SHIELD protective conditioner defends against three forms of daily damage: mechanical, UV, and environmental, for up to three days. DAMAGE SHIELD fortifies hair’s exterior lipid barriers to make hair more resilient against damage, and K18PEPTIDE™ replenishes strands during washing. Plus, it softens, smooths, and detangles hair without film-forming silicones or waxes that can weigh hair down—meaning you get weightless conditioning protection.

So, there you have it. The 411 on softening and smoothing curls and coils with DAMAGE SHIELD protective conditioner. Here's to making every day a good hair day.
