. 1 Begin with a thorough consultation with your client. Be sure that the hair is healthy enough for a BTX smoothing service. Explain the importance of the Brasil Cacau home after care maintenance range. 2 Apply BTX smoothing treatment to clean dry hair. 3 Section the hair into 4 parts for application. 4 Pour 50-60ml of the BTX smoothing treatment into a clean bowl and apply with a tint brush in sections that enable full saturation of the hair, avoiding the scalp area. Emulsify through with fingers. DO NOT USE WHILST PREGNANT OR BREAST FEEDING We have provided you with a guide to heat temperatures on hair types. This is a guide only and would be used in conjunction with a full consultation and strand test. The hair should never be overheated (start on a reasonable heat and turn iron up by 5 degrees at a time until iron runs through easily and steams). In all cases the iron should be creating steam, even on a low temperature; a silky shiny appearance should be visible. If this isn’t the case, turn your iron up in 5 degree increments, until it is sliding through the hair freely. This will help you determine the most accurate temperature for your client. Do not apply unnecessary high temperatures to delicate hair. By taking a strand test, and following manufacturer’s instructions, you will eliminate overheating this hair type. Spending the time conducting a thorough consultation will enable you to achieve sensational results. Using the table as a guide, we ask you to do a strand test first to determine the most appropriate heat required for your hair type/condition. 5 Use a wide tooth comb in a downward motion to eliminate all tangles. 6 Process for 45-60 minutes, depending on hair texture/resistance, but DO NOT exceed 60 minutes. 7 Rinse partially (30%) removing only the excess product and gently towel dry. 8 Blow dry hair in a flat and downward motion until 100% dry. Finish must be flat and smooth. 9 Divide the hair into 4 equal parts. 10 Take fine sections, passing iron evenly through the hair until a smooth, glossy look is achieved (refer to table). Continue until entire head is complete. After finishing the ironing process, do not rinse. Use Brasil Cacau Shine Serum to finish for a fabulous result. NB We recommend using Brasil Cacau Gradual Smooth Serum 1 - 2 times per week to refresh your smoothing treatment. S
