Piur London S.P.R. Conditioner Home Care (250 ml) follows the shampoo at every wash of the S.P.R. home routine, on lengths and ends only. Piur London describes it as sealing in that wash's dose and keeping the hair soft and manageable between salon visits. It stays on for 2 to 3 minutes and is rinsed. It is not a leave-in, and not a substitute for the weekly mask.

Why the conditioner comes at every wash

This is the home half of the S.P.R. reconstruction service: the salon rebuilds the fibre in one appointment, and the home range keeps feeding it between visits so the result does not wash back out. Piur London names the technology AcerolaForce, after the acerola fruit extract every product in the range carries. The conditioner is the daily close: on lengths and ends after the shampoo, then rinsed.

Key ingredients

• Malpighia glabra (acerola) fruit extract: the acerola behind the AcerolaForce name.
• Crambe abyssinica seed oil: Abyssinian oil.
• A hydrolyzed protein blend: the source is not named.
• Marine algae extract.
• A cationic conditioning base carries them.

What to expect

Softer, easier-to-comb lengths.

Who it is for

• Anyone following the S.P.R. home routine, at every wash
• Lengths and ends that need softness and manageability between salon visits

Who it is not for

• The scalp: lengths and ends only
• A leave-in: it is rinsed
• A substitute for the weekly mask or Power Dose when the fibre needs a heavier dose

Professional tip

Detangle while the conditioner is in, from the ends up, never from the root down.

How to use

Two ways to read it: Piur London's directions, and the advice we would give a client for using it at home.

Method A: manufacturer method

1. Apply to damp hair after shampooing, focusing on the lengths and ends.
2. Leave for 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Rinse.

Method B: our advice for home use

1. Squeeze the water out of the lengths after shampooing. Our advice to pass on to the client.
2. Lengths and ends, not the scalp; leave for the time in Method A, then rinse.
3. Comb it through with a wide-tooth comb while it sits.
4. Mask day: mask first, then this. Power Dose day: not at all.

Where it fits in the Piur London range

Every wash: S.P.R. Shampoo Home Care, then S.P.R. Conditioner Home Care on lengths and ends. Once a week, the deep step: either S.P.R. Mask Home Care, a ten-to-fifteen-minute treatment, or Ampola PowerDose S.P.R., a three-minute single dose for a week with no time for the mask, never both on the same wash. On mask day, the mask goes on after the shampoo and the conditioner still closes the wash. In the salon, the S.P.R. Full Protocol is the service this routine maintains. The home routines sit in Piur London Home Care.
