Brazil Protein Bioplastia Vegan Salon & Home Care Kit (1600 ml) is the Bioplastia Vegan smoothing service with its take-home blonde care in one set. It pairs the Bioplastia Vegan 1 L smoothing cream for the salon with the Blond Vegan Shampoo and Conditioner to send the client home with. The cream smooths the hair with a cysteamine and cysteine reducer, and the Bioplastia Vegan 1 L ingredient list also carries the violet dye CI 60730 (Acid Violet 43).

Why the salon-to-home kit

A smoothing service on blonde hair lasts and stays clean when the client goes home with the right wash. This kit puts both sides in one set. Bioplastia Vegan is the smoothing cream: a cysteamine and cysteine reducer smooths, and the flat iron seals the result. The Blond Vegan Shampoo and Conditioner are the aftercare, a shampoo and conditioner printed for blond, coloured and grey hair that keep the lengths soft between visits. Sold together, the kit covers the service in the chair and the routine that maintains it, so the salon can smooth and send home from one purchase.

What is in the kit

• Bioplastia Vegan 1 L: the professional smoothing cream, built around a cysteamine and cysteine reducer with the violet dye CI 60730 (Acid Violet 43) on its list, plus acai, coconut and onion extracts.
• Blond Vegan Shampoo 300 ml: the take-home wash, printed for blond, coloured and grey hair.
• Blond Vegan Conditioner 300 ml: the matching conditioner that keeps the lengths soft and manageable between salon visits.

What to expect

In the salon, Bioplastia Vegan smooths the hair through its cysteamine and cysteine reducer, and the flat iron seals the result. No animal-derived ingredient appears on the printed ingredient list of the Bioplastia Vegan 1 L cream. At home, the Blond Vegan duo keeps the smoothed hair conditioned so the finish stays fresh for longer. The kit is the salon service plus its aftercare, not a home smoothing treatment: the cream is applied and sealed in the chair, and the shampoo and conditioner are the routine around it.

Who it is for

• Salons that offer a smoothing service on blonde, lightened, highlighted or grey hair and want the matching aftercare in the same set
• Stylists who want to send clients home with a matching blonde-care routine for smoothed hair
• A first Bioplastia Vegan purchase that covers both the service and the take-home in one

Who it is not for

• Home users wanting a wash-in smoothing: the cream is a professional service applied in the salon
• Anyone needing only the wash: the Blond Vegan duo is also sold on its own
• Hair that has not had a strand test: always test a section before a full application
• Applying to dry hair: work the violet cream on damp strands only for a clean, even result.

Professional tip

Work it into damp hair in thin sections, keep it a finger-width off the root and give it the full processing time before you rinse and seal. When the client leaves, set them up with the Blond Vegan duo and explain the routine. The shampoo cleanses, the conditioner keeps the lengths soft, and together they look after the smooth finish between visits.

How to use

The salon service uses the Bioplastia Vegan cream; the Blond Vegan duo is the take-home routine. Always run a strand test before a full application.

Method A: the manufacturer protocol (Bioplastia Vegan)

1. On damp hair, apply the cream strand by strand, keeping it 1 cm off the root.
2. Leave it on for 10 to 50 minutes depending on the hair type.
3. Rinse and dry the hair.
4. Flat-iron thin strands until they are sealed, at an average temperature of 204 °C / 400 °F.

Method B: the Brazilian method

1. Clarify and prepare the hair, then dampen it evenly for the cream.
2. Section the hair into four to six and apply strand by strand, keeping the cream 1 cm off the scalp.
3. Comb each section from root to tip so the fibre is aligned and evenly coated.
4. Process for 10 to 50 minutes by hair type, then rinse out thoroughly with warm water.
5. Blow-dry to 100 percent, then seal in thin sections with the flat iron at around 204 °C / 400 °F.
6. At home: the client washes with the Blond Vegan Shampoo and follows with the Conditioner on the lengths.
