Blue Gold
Salvatore Blue Gold is Salvatore's two-step taninoplastia smoothing system: a preparatory Step 1 and a smoothing Step 2 built on plant tannins. It is a focused, streamlined system for the stylist who wants to smooth curly, frizzy or chemically treated hair without formaldehyde. Blue Gold comes in Original and in the concentrated Premium. With the right home care, the smooth result lasts three to five months.
How Blue Gold works
Step 1 is a preparatory shampoo that cleanses the hair deeply and readies the fibre to take up the active ingredient. Step 2 is the smoothing conditioner with the tannin actives: tannic acid together with plant extracts. They bind to the proteins in the hair fibre and are activated by the heat of the flat iron, so the fibre is aligned and smoothed. Blue Gold works with tannin, not with formaldehyde or glyoxylic acid: no product in the system contains formaldehyde or a formaldehyde-releasing ingredient.
Original and Premium
Blue Gold comes in two versions around the same tannin mechanism. Original is the standard version of the two-step system. Premium is the concentrated version, for those who want a more intense, more concentrated application. Both follow the same logic: a preparatory step and a smoothing tannin step, sealed in with the flat iron.
Who it is for
Blue Gold is a professional system for stylists and salons who want a simple, repeatable two-step smoothing protocol. The treatment suits almost every hair type, including coloured or bleached hair, because the smoothing does not rely on formaldehyde. A professional hair analysis beforehand helps you choose Original or Premium.
