Too thin, too dry, too soft, too curly ... The micro-pavement improvised at the writing is formal: our hair do everything wrong. Are they stiff and flat? We dream them thick and wavy! We try everything - permanent, coloring , smoothing, sweeping and straightening of all kinds - they do not change. And worse, they are spoiled. The solution ? Accept them as they are and pamper them. The best hairdressers repeat it in a loop: the trend is to well-being . Less aggression, more attention. Today, all the ingredients are gathered to finally take care of our mane. More extensive, the ranges meet the specific needs of each hair type . Care is more pleasant, easier to use. The stylists are gourmands. Unpublished materials, subtle perfumes, not to mention chic looks, which really make you want.

I dream of a silky material

We like ... to pass the hand in its long hair , it is soft, one feels beautiful. The problem : by dint of tangling, the hair ends up breaking. Silk turns into hay. Lengths and tips lack hydration while the roots grease quickly and flatten. Our solutions : think of disentangling them several times a day with a bristle brush with soft bristles ( Mitsie Attitude , in large and medium surfaces). Choose lightly cleansing shampoos and expressive care . Apply by avoiding the roots so as not to grease the scalp . Rich in soothing plant extracts and polymer art, lighter than silicone, they moisturize and encase the hair to the ends.

I aspire to calm

We love ... savoring a zero stress moment and finding a healthy scalp . The problem : pollution, repeated brushings , limescale water ... Naturally fragile scalps see in all colors. In the face of itching and overheating, one loses one's self-control. Our solutions : restore strength to the hydrolipidic film , the natural shield of the scalp, with trace elements , minerals , vitamins and essential oils "relaxing", such as mint. Take advantage of this sensory care with the hungry perfumes to relax: close your eyes and breathe deeply.

I want sublime loops

We like ... play with its pretty ripples, a 100% seduction gesture! The problem : quickly dried up, weakened by external aggressions, the loops hate moisture that breaks the curl and gives a foaming effect. They then become impossible to comb , and it puts our nerves in ball. Our solutions : a pre-drying towel that absorbs a max of water. Then, warm dryer, wrap the locks on the finger. For the care , creams and jellies based on moisturizing and nourishing oils , which gloss each loop and give spring. To have a light hand: you want a soft and lively material, not frozen.

I discover the care of Jouvence

We like ... test high-tech treatments that offer density and vitality to tired manes. The problem : like our skin, our hair grows old. It is less thick, less firm. It whitens, the mass refines and abnormal falls occur. Our solutions : doping with anti-oxidant active ingredients to densify and protect the fiber, and make two dietary supplements per year (Léro, Innéov) for boosters from the inside. And treat them gently! Avoid brushing , choose soft colors , even natural. Or test the first anti-aging version developed by L'Oréal Pro: it covers white hair while its patented active redensifies the fiber and gives volume ( Color Supreme , in salons).

I taste the pleasure of styling

We like ... fun to fix, sublimate, or squarely transform everything. The problem : very numerous and very targeted, it is a little difficult to find the styling we need. In addition, they require a real technique ... Otherwise, it's back to the box shampoo ! Our solutions : finished the sticky, the mat, the fat. Nacreous emulsions, fixing waters and gorgeous jellies are nowhere to be found. It feels good, it's fun to use, the result is supple and natural: we love it. Provided to put very little, to melt the matter previously in the hand and to apply it in small touches. In a word: to mimic the gestures of his hairdresser !

Small house massage

Elbows on a table, one takes his head in the hands as if one wanted to take off the scalp . Small circles of the neck are massed towards the front of the skull and then on the sides, from the ears to the top. Perfect to soften the scalp, unblock microtubes and promote circulation to the roots . Rhythm ? 3 minutes a day. And before each shampoo , it's even better.


I make vibrate my coloring

We like to ... shine with a bright color that illuminates the face and look. The problem : under the action of coloring and oxidizing chemicals, the hair "opens" to absorb the pigments . Its fiber is altered, it is more porous, drier, duller: it is sensitized. Our solutions : it is imperative to repair and protect daily. On the program: ointments and syrups rich in vitamin A , ceramides and fruit acids . The goal ? Intensively nourish the fiber and smooth the scales . One thus limits the fading of the color and one boosts the brilliance. Also ensure that the care contains a filter to protect the color from UV rays. Lastly, respect the deadlines between two colorations , at home and in the living room.

I repaired ... illico

We like ... to feel under his fingers a beautiful strong, thick, living matter. The problem : the scalp does not secrete enough sebum . Poorly lubricated, the fiber is rough, dull, it breaks. It is therefore necessary to give him rich and intense care on a daily basis ... but it takes a lot of time! Our solutions : thanks to the labs who have finally created restorative formulas without time laying. Their ultra-soluble active ingredients penetrate very quickly to nourish and repair. Their soft textures leave a silky touch without weighing down. Provided to spin well his hair before, and then avoid the burning dryers!

I like smoothing without overheating

We like to ... smooth her hair , get rid of frizz and get an icy effect. The problem : in the hairdresser , it works. But at home, impossible to tame these rebellious locks . One then becomes "addict" of the smoothing iron or ceramic plates. Very quickly, the hair looks like horsehair. Our solutions : prepare for a "peaceful" brushing . Apply first on pre-dried hair a sheathing cream rich in featherweight silicones, vitamins and proteins. During shaping, heat the strands very quickly and always wait 5 s to let them cool. Let go. Guaranteed hold and shine .

Atmosphere Spa

Alerted by the success of the Spas , hairdressers decided to create their "wellness brackets". A blessing for hair that only needs to be regenerated in depth. Also ideal for the morale: who would refuse a pause in papules instead of the traditional passage to the bac?
