Repairs Damage Caused By

  • Bleach + Color
  • Heat
  • Chemical Services
  1. Shampoo, do not condition. Towel-dry thoroughly
  2. Apply 3-9 pumps of K18 leave-in molecular repair hair mask based on your length and density, starting at the ends and working up towards the roots
  3. Let sit for 4 minutes. Do not rinse out
  4. Comb, add product + style as usual. Use for 4-6 washes post-salon service, then as needed

Takes damage repair further – biomimetic peptide seamlessly fits in and reconnects broken polypeptide chains at the molecular level. As a result, disulfide bonds are also reconnected for reinforced strength along the length + width of hair—offering comprehensive, lasting repair

Restores hair from even extreme damage - by working at the innermost layer of the hair, core strength and elasticity are renewed for strong, smooth, bouncy hair

Delivers immediate and lasting results – hair is repaired from the first use and lasts past your next wash, for ongoing reparative benefits

Simplified repair - convenient, leave-in formula works in just 4 minutes, with no extra rinse required

Works on all hair types – because K18PEPTIDE™ works on a molecular level (where all hair is the same), this product is effective on all hair types and with every service

  • K18PEPTIDE™ is a biotech-developed peptide that mimics hair's structure to reverse damage by reconnecting polypeptide chains and disulfide bonds broken during bleaching, color and chemical services, and heat*.

  • pH-optimized (5.0-6.0) to help minimize cuticle swelling + put hair proteins in their most resilient state after salon service or shampoo

  • Cream format enables easy, lightweight application across all hair types, with detangling and softening benefits.

  • Vegan, color-safe, cruelty-free

  • DO clarify before K18 if your client is a heavy product user (demineralize for mineral + metal buildup)
  • DO apply on clean, damp hair
  • DO wait the full 4 minutes before combing or styling
  • DO add whatever styling products you love after the 4 minutes
  • DON'T use conditioner before applying K18 mask (you can apply after the 4 min but most find they don’t need it)
  • DON'T overdo it—less is more
  • DON'T rinse it out

got questions?
Get started here
K18 is engineered to work with every hair type, in every service, and with every routine.
Traditional conditioners leave a film on hair that blocks our peptide from penetrating effectively. Once the 4-minute wait time is up, feel free to use a conditioner, a leave-in, or any type of styling product.
Water in damp hair swells the cuticle (the outside layer of hair) to open the gates for our biomimetic peptide to enter and travel to the innermost layers of hair. If the gates aren’t open, the product will stay on the surface—giving you mostly superficial repair. By applying on damp hair, you can use less, waste less, and still get the best results.
Think of the K18 mask as a highly concentrated treatment. It restores hair’s strength + elasticity in the innermost layers of hair, instead of traditional conditioners that coat the outside of hair. After the 4-minute wait time post-K18 mask, feel free to add a leave-in for a boost of conditioning if needed.
Yes, both formulas are the same. The PRO mask is conveniently sized for PRO use.
soft, strong, bouncy hair for everyone
Repair damage for hair like new* in 4 minutes.

    Love K18

    I’m at hairstylist in K 18. Tina has been a complete game changer for me. I use it on myself and I am completely loving the results. I’m using the hair oil to leave in restructuring cream and the shampoo and conditioner and have had absolutely wonderful results. my hair is so silky brought the shine back instantly right after I had highlighted my hair, which usually takes a couple weeks for it feel healthy again.
