Take Control of Your Hair with Shape Control - Redken's NEW Texture Services to Achieve Waves, Curls or Straight Styles
Achieve the hair you want with Redken’s new Shape Controlsystem, which is formulated without formaldehyde, and provides permanent thermal straightening, gorgeous curls or luscious waves. Shape Control is available only in Redken salons and can be adapted to the desires of the consumer, whether they’re seeking frizz control, straightening or curling effects.
There is a growing trend in the market for long-lasting smoothness in the US and Latin America. This is evident in the increase of keratin treatments offered in salons. According to a 2008 US market study:
- 37% of salons currently perform keratin treatments in their salons
- 29% are exploring the possibility of adding keratin services
As the popularity of the treatment has grown, so have health concerns about the ingredients used in it, including the cosmetic-grade solution of formaldehyde called Formalin.
“The majority of smoothing treatments (such as keratin treatments) currently available in salons are tied to serious health concerns about the ingredients used in it, including the cosmetic-grade solution of formaldehyde called Formalin,” says Elena Marchettini, Assistant Vice President of Brand Marketing. “Redken’s new Shape Control system features the benefits of a keratin treatment but is formulated without formaldehyde.”
Shape Control provides benefits to the consumer such as reduced styling time/improved manageability, reduction/elimination of frizz, and increased shine, softness and condition of the hair. The new texture range features Kera-Shape Complex technology that contains shaping agents for permanent smoothing or curling, cationic conditioners for moisture and shine and emollients for control and manageability. Shape Control is ideal for consumers who want the end result of long-lasting waves, curls, smooth or straight styles without compromising their health and condition of their hair.
