What is the One-Step Smoothing System?

 

The BASIC One-Step Smoothing System combines new technology and proven results for a safe alternative to harsh keratin treatments. The process is based on the One-Step Smoothing Foam and does not involve multiple trips to the shampoo bowl, multiple blowdries and multiple passes with the flat iron. One-Step Smoothing System is available to professionals only for use in the salon.

 

Does the One-Step Smoothing System contain chemicals?

 

The active ingredient in the One-Step Smoothing System is " Cystine Amino Acids." Anything that is measured on the Ph scale is considered to be a chemical, even water--which has a pH very close to seven. BASIC's One-Step Smoothing System has a pH of 1.5 which means it is acidic (like lemon juice) and very low on the pH scale. Therefore, BASIC's One-Step Smoothing System poses no harm to the hair like harsh chemicals, such as relaxers and permanent hair colors, which have a much higher pH. Additionally, the system does not contain chemicals that break disulfide bonds, therefore the effect is not permanent

The One-Step Smoothing System can be used on ANY type of hair, including relaxed, naturally curly, color-treated, grey and previously relaxed hair. 

The One-Step Smoothing System is not a chemical. While the One-Step Smoothing System is not chemical-based, it does have a pH similar to lemon juice. 

 

I have customers who are happy with their natural curl pattern. How does One-Step affect the curl pattern?

 

The One-Step Smoothing System will slightly elongate the natural curl pattern, seal and rebuild damaged cuticles, and eliminate frizz and swelling in the hair. Depending on the amount of heat that is used during the smoothing process will determine if the natural curl pattern will be compromised. Hair is made of Keratin Protein, and excessive heat styling to the hair shaft will cause the hair to create a "straight memory," and reduce the hair’s natural ability to spring or coil back. Using less heat will retain more and using more heat will retail less curl.
