Magic Sleek Traditional Step 1: Prepare Shampoo is a professional pre‑treatment clarifying shampoo for stylists performing the Magic Sleek smoothing service. ✨
A high‑foaming blend of SLES, cocamidopropyl betaine, and cocamide MEA deep‑cleans heavy product residue, oils, and pollution, while disodium EDTA chelates hard‑water minerals for a truly clean canvas. By opening the cuticle and purifying the fiber, it helps Step 2 adhere evenly. Dense lather speeds uniform coverage and rinse‑out—great for chair‑side workflow. 1 L backbar size keeps services moving. For professional use only; follow PPE per SDS. 🧴🛡
Hair is left squeaky‑clean and residue‑free, primed for smoother, more uniform results clients can see and feel. 💦✨
Add to your backbar to standardize Magic Sleek prep and keep results consistent.
Benefits
- Deep-Cleans Product Buildup And Oils: High-foaming surfactant system (SLES + cocamidopropyl betaine + cocamide MEA) effectively lifts and rinses away styling residue, sebum, and pollutants.
- Helps Remove Hard-Water Minerals: Disodium EDTA chelates calcium/magnesium and other metals to aid removal of mineral films that can impede treatment performance.
- Even, High-Foam Coverage: Balanced surfactant blend boosts lather for fast, uniform application and thorough rinse-out.
- Preps Hair For Next Step: Intensive residue and mineral removal leaves a clean surface that optimizes adherence and performance of the subsequent treatment step.
Active ingredients
Sodium Laureth Sulfate (Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate): Primary anionic surfactant that delivers high-foaming, strong detergency to break down heavy oils, styling polymers, and pollutant residues for a thorough, clarifying cleanse.
Cocamidopropyl Betaine: Amphoteric co-surfactant that boosts foam and helps solubilize sebum and buildup while moderating the harshness of the primary surfactant for effective, even cleansing.
Cocamide MEA: Nonionic surfactant/foam booster that increases micelle formation and grease-cutting power, improving lather density and rinse-off efficiency.
Disodium EDTA: Chelating agent that binds calcium, magnesium, and trace metals to help lift hard‑water and mineral deposits and enhance surfactant performance.
Sodium Hydroxide: pH adjuster that controls the formula’s pH to support effective cleansing in the preparation step.
