SUGGESTED USAGE:

For best results, use as directed below.

1. Use a minimal amount of Folligen Therapy Shampoo to cleanse the hair. Gently massage. Rinse thoroughly.

2. Next, apply Folligen Therapy Conditioner as a deep conditioning treatment. Leave on for at least 5-10 minutes. To enhance deep conditioning effects, leave on for 20-30 minutes before rinsing thoroughly.

3. Dry hair gently and style as usual.

TIP! To fortify healthier hair, apply a very light amount of Folligen Therapy Spray, Folligen Cream, Hair Signals Solution, or Hair Signals Cream directly to the scalp after cleansing the hair. These products are scalp treatments that can be left on until the next time the hair is washed. In about 6-8 weeks, many clients notice an improvement in the appearance and look of thickness of their hair.

HOW IT'S DIFFERENT:

Folligen Shampoo and Conditioner are designed similar to the specialized shampoos and conditioners used by Long Hair Clinics. Our products contain very high levels of premium quality hair-protective ingredients.

Excessive shampooing is the main cause of damage to the hair shafts. Folligen Therapy Shampoo is formulated at a relatively low pH of 5.8, allowing effective cleansing of your scalp and hair while avoiding the harsh alkaline pHs of many cosmetic shampoos.

Biochemist Dr. Loren Pickart's Folligen Shampoo is designed to support your hair's natural proteins that have a high sulfur content from the amino acid cysteine. These easily form cross-links to other cystines in the hair molecule. These bonds are responsible for your hair's strength and abrasion resistance, while the cross-links hold hair fibers together. As long as this synergy is not disrupted, hair fibers stay strong.

Folligen Therapy Conditioner is a concentrated formula that helps re-acidify hair after shampooing. Restoring a natural acid environment to the hair & scalp helps keep hair proteins hard. This product contains the highest quality amino acids and pantothenic acid (vitamin B-5) to re-seal the hair cuticles after shampooing.

Why is it important to use a conditioner after shampooing? Keratin is the major hair protein which forms biologic filaments into hard, tough, insoluble, hair shafts. Three layers of keratin form every hair. The outer sheath of cuticle forms overlapping scales. After shampooing the hair's keratin must be hardened (fortified). Use Folligen Conditioner after every shampoo to help de-tangle hair and add a lustrous shine.

Dr. Pickart's formulas combine copper peptides enhanced by antioxidants. Folligen products also contain the amino acids that binds to the hair shaft to thicken the look of hair in the manner used by specialized hair conditioners.*

IMPORTANT TIPS:

Folligen Shampoo and Conditioner are very concentrated (containing high levels of premium quality ingredients).

If you find the formulation too thick (or heavy), make sure you are using very light amounts. Some clients add a small amount of water to their hands to dilute the product down right before they wash/condition their hair. Use a minimal amount of the product to cleanse the hair. There is no need for repeat applications.

Only wash/condition the hair as needed. Always handle wet hair very gently.

ADDITIONAL SUGGESTIONS:

Air dry your hair whenever possible. Limit use of heat (blow dryers, curling irons, hot combs, flat irons) to special occasions only or not at all. Supplements of MSM (2-4 grams daily) and flaxseed oil (4 grams daily) may also help with hair health.
