Apply by gently massaging into the hair. Leave on for a few minutes and rinse thoroughly with water.

Charcoal (Vegetal): Charcoal has been used since ancient times for its medicinal properties. It is a black, porous, carbon-based material naturally produced by burning wood. Its main characteristic is its purifying power, as it absorbs and eliminates impurities and toxins from the skin and hair. When applied to bleached hair, it enhances the toning of golden shades, providing a soft, natural platinum tone.

Sweet Almond Oil: Obtained from the mature seeds of the almond tree, it is rich in natural lipids, oleic acid, and linoleic acid. It is an excellent emollient that provides a light, non-greasy sensation. It is ideal for treating dry, dull hair that has undergone bleaching, as it penetrates deeply into the hair fiber, regenerating it and restoring shine and softness. In the shampoo, sweet almond oil is present as suspended droplets that deposit on the hair’s surface, forming a thin hydrating film.

Plex-Cystine Bond Complex: An innovative and exclusive active ingredient from Abril et Nature, rich in cysteine, which generates bonds within the hair’s keratin chain. It targets broken links in the hair fiber’s keratin, repairing and reconnecting them. It reconstructs and protects the hair fiber, strengthens it, and prevents breakage during and after aggressive chemical treatments such as bleaching, perming, or coloring.

Centella Asiatica Extract: Centella extract has strong epithelium-regenerating and healing properties and stimulates the activation of fibroblasts in the skin and scalp. Fibroblasts are skin cells responsible for producing collagen proteins, which support the skin’s structure. It is a powerful regenerating agent for the scalp and is ideal for helping repair potential damage caused by aggressive chemical treatments.

Positively Charged Conditioning Actives: These are made of two parts: one positively charged part that neutralizes the negative charge of the hair fiber, eliminating static electricity and preventing frizz; and one emollient (softening) part, similar to the natural lipids of our scalp, which hydrates, nourishes, and conditions the hair.

Is the toning hair mask suitable for all hair types, or only for blonde hair or hair with golden and yellow tones?

The toning hair mask is specifically designed for blonde hair or hair with golden and yellow tones, as it helps neutralize warm tones and provide a cooler, more neutral shade. However, some toning masks can also be suitable for other hair colors, such as gray or silver hair. It is important to carefully read the product labels and verify if it is suitable for your specific hair type and color before use.

How can I know which shade of toning hair mask I need?

To determine which shade of toning hair mask you need, consider your current hair color and the results you want to achieve. If your hair is light blonde or platinum, look for a mask with violet or purple pigments. If your hair is dark blonde or golden, look for a mask with blue pigments. If you have gray or silver hair, look for a mask with silver or gray pigments. If you are unsure, consult a stylist or hair care professional.

How often should I use a pigmented hair mask to maintain my hair color?

The appropriate frequency for using a pigmented hair mask to maintain hair color depends on the specific product and your individual hair care needs. Generally, it is recommended to use a pigmented hair mask once a week or every two weeks to maintain the desired color and tone. It is important to read the instructions of the product you choose, as some may recommend more or less frequent use. Factors such as how often you wash your hair and the level of damage or dryness can also influence the ideal frequency for using a pigmented hair mask.

What ingredients does the toning hair mask contain, and how do they work to neutralize yellow tones in the hair?

Toning hair masks may contain different ingredients depending on the brand and specific formula. Generally, these masks contain violet or blue pigments that work to neutralize yellow and golden tones in the hair. They may also include ingredients such as oils and plant extracts, wheat or soy protein, and keratin, which help to hydrate and strengthen the hair. These ingredients work together to improve the appearance of the hair, reduce unwanted tones, and provide additional hydration and strength.
