K18 Pro Hair Repair Mini Kit: Hair Mist 30 ml + Leave-In Mask 15 ml

K18 Pro Hair Repair Mini Kit holds two K18 products in small sizes: the Molecular Repair Hair Mist in 30 ml and the Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask in 15 ml. It is a professional two-step set.

What to expect

Two products with two different moments. The brand says the mist works against split ends, and it is part of a bleach or colour service. During its 4-minute wait it cares for and strengthens the hair; the brand presents it as protection against chemical damage before colouring or bleaching. The mask cares for and strengthens damaged hair, with better elasticity and less breakage.

Who it is for

Stylists who want to try the mist and the mask in small sizes before larger bottles.
Colourists taking both on a session: the mist for the step before bleach or colour, the mask for after the wash.

Who it is not for

Home care with the mist alone: its directions build it into a bleach or colour service.
Anyone sensitive to the fragrance allergens on the mask's list: Geraniol, Linalool, Hexyl Cinnamal and Benzyl Alcohol.
Anyone avoiding wheat-derived ingredients: Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein and Hydrolyzed Wheat Starch are on the mask's list.

How to use

The kit's own six steps as published, translated from Dutch. In them the two products are called PRO Molecular Repair Mist and PRO Molecular Repair Mask. Our tip for long or thick hair: work in small sections, for the mist and for the mask.

Method A: the kit's six steps

Apply the PRO Molecular Repair Mist to washed, towel-dried hair before your service begins.
Let the mist soak in for four minutes without rinsing it out.
Then carry out your service as usual.
After the service, wash the hair with shampoo, but do not use conditioner.
Work the PRO Molecular Repair Mask through towel-dried hair.
Let the mask soak in for four minutes as well, and do not rinse it out.

Where it fits in the K18 range

The mist also comes in 150 and 300 ml, and the mask in 5, 50 and 150 ml. The 15 ml mask of this kit is also listed alone, as the 15 ml size.

Two products: the Molecular Repair Hair Mist in 30 ml and the Leave-In Molecular Repair Hair Mask in 15 ml.

Four minutes on towel-dried hair, and it is not rinsed out. The mist works the same way before the service: four minutes, and it stays in.
