Works Great!

My hair felt very clean. I was skeptical about not using conditioner and my heat was so soft without it. Great product!

K 18 product

The Product K18 is excellent. It is perfect for my hair and my hairdresser tried it for the first time on me and expressed how much she liked the product herself. It you use it, you will definitely see the difference in your hair. Keeps your hair clean and very manageable. Love it.
