Presentation
The kit contains:

• 1 Smoothing Cream 80g
• 1 Neutralizing 80g
• 1 Explanatory Guide
• 1 Pair of Gloves

Directions

1. Wick test:
   • The lock test is very important, as it evaluates the time necessary for the product to take effect, in addition to verifying the degree of resistance of the strands, indicating if the hair is in good condition for transformation - Fine Hair (5 20 minutes); Medium hair (15 to 25 minutes); Thick hair (20 to 35 minutes). Never exceed 35 minutes!
2. Application:
   • Divide the detangled hair into 4 quadrants with non-metallic pins.
   • Protect the shoulders with a towel and put on the gloves.
   • Start with quadrant 1. Separate a strand.
   • Start counting time and apply HairLife Smooth & Natural Smoothing Cream, respecting 0.5 cm from the root, up to half the threads, in fine locks, with a fine-tooth comb.
   • IMPORTANT: Leave the wicks loose, since the pins can mark and break the threads.
   • After applying the HairLife Smooth & Natural Smoothing Cream to all the strands of quadrant 1, go to the following quadrants, repeating the same procedure.
   • Go back to quadrant 1 and, with the help of the comb, bring the HairLife Smooth & Natural Smoothing Cream from the root (always respecting 0.5 cm from the root) to the tips of the lock. For long or high volume hair, it is recommended to use two or more containers. Before proceeding to the next strand, use your fingers to distribute the HairLife Smooth & Natural Smoothing Cream from root to tip, to ensure that it is well distributed.
   • Repeat the procedure for the following quadrants.
   • Leave HairLife Smooth & Natural Smoothing Cream to act according to the time observed in the Strand Test.
   • Distribute the entire content of HairLife Smooth & Natural Neutralizer from the roots (respecting 0.5 cm from the roots) to the ends, evenly, throughout the hair. With a fine comb, comb through, leaving the strands very straight, respecting the direction of growth of the strands, and keep them like this for 15 minutes.
   • NOTE: If heating of the scalp occurs, wash with plenty of water and repeat step 10.
   • Remove HairLife Smooth & Natural Neutralizer with plenty of running water. Next, wash the hair with a Novex Shampoo of your choice.
   • After washing the hair, we recommend the use of a Novex Hair Mask. Leave to act for 3 minutes. Rinse and finish as usual.
3. Retouching the root:
   
   • Retouch: The pause time between application and Retouch depends on hair growth - approximately 60 days after application. Follow the above application ritual by applying HairLife Smooth & Natural only at the root (part of the hair grown in this period, respecting 0.5 cm from the root) without spreading to the length and ends.

Frequency of use
The straightening can be repeated every 60 days.
