Five steps
to flawless hair
with Reset

Reset (with Turbo)
Treatment time: 2-3 hours (including 30-45 minutes of sink-in time).
Step 1: Consult
Listen, advise and agree on a plan.
It starts with innocent questions. The less you know, the more you learn.
We use two simple but oh-so-powerful questions.
- Tell me about your hair (or for a returning client, ‘Tell me, how’s your hair been?’)
- What would you love your hair to be?
If your client has colour, explain that Reset can shift the tone and intensity of vivids, coppers, reds, pinks and areas where there’s a build-up of dark colour.
Introduce the aftercare they’ll need to take home (Build or Hydrate Shampoo and Conditioner).
Step 2: Prepare
Shampoo twice with Zero. For the second shampoo on normal, virgin, very curly, Afro or resistant hair, cover with a cap and leave Zero on for up to 5 minutes.
Rinse, towel-dry, comb and analyse the hair’s porosity and weakness. Look for weak and dry hair, strength of curl and areas that are already drying out.
Spray Regulate in 3-4cm sections, starting at the nape. Comb through. Concentrate on the most porous areas. Don’t dry in.
Apply Reset (or your Reset/Turbo mix) in 2-3cm sections, starting at the nape, close to the root but not on it.
DON'T APPLY DIRECTLY TO THE SCALP.
Turbo is an optional additive that makes the treatment penetrate further. It’s used on hair that’s normal, virgin, very curly, Afro or resistant. Use up to 2ml Turbo per 10ml Reset. Do not use on highly porous and weak hair.
Cover with a plastic cap to make sure the hair stays damp while the treatment sinks in for 30-45 minutes.
For extra straightening power on resistant, very curly and Afro (but not weak or fragile) hair, you can add an optional extra step by drying in the treatment with medium heat before rinsing. You might also choose to just dry the treatment in with particular areas - the choice is yours.
Rinse for 20 seconds. For white and light blonde hair, rinse for an extra minute.
Gently towel dry, apply Lock, comb through, and leave for two minutes.
Rinse for 30 seconds.
Blow-dry the hair until it’s 100% dry. Blast it dry quickly before finishing with a brush.
Iron from the roots to the ends in one smooth motion. On the first pass, let each section cool for two seconds before continuing.
Using Fabriq irons and the EasyComb, iron the hair slowly in 2-3cm sections.
Give the hair one final pass with the irons set at 180°C/355°F in giant sections.
Hair can be shampooed from just 30 minutes after the treatment, (for maximum straightening power on the curliest hair, we recommend not shampooing for the first 48 hours).
Hair must be rinsed with cool water for 3-5 minutes first.
Most clients do that first wash at home, so make sure you tell them this before they leave. They’ll need to use Fabriq Shampoos and Conditioners to get maximum results from the treatment and make sure the effects last for the guaranteed time of up to 4 month.
