About this product
THE ANSWER EX Gloss Treatment is an in-shower conditioner from Kao's 5-ingredient repair complex, formulated specifically for damage caused by curling irons and straighteners. Higher concentrations of malic acid and lanolin fatty acid target heat-stressed strands, leaving hair glossy, smooth, and manageable, finished with a refined bergamot & daphne scent.
How to use
- After shampooing, gently squeeze excess water from hair.
- Apply an appropriate amount (about a marble-sized dollop for shoulder-length hair) to the mid-lengths and ends and work through thoroughly.
- Rinse thoroughly with water.
Ingredients
- Hydrolyzed Keratin (Wool) — Protein-derived ingredient that helps reinforce and smooth the hair fiber.
- Ceramide α (Bismethoxypropyl Amidoisodocosane) — Kao's proprietary ceramide-type ingredient that helps replenish lipids lost from heat styling.
- Malic Acid — Mild acid included at a higher concentration in this formula to support repair and shine.
- Lanolin Fatty Acid — Conditioning lipid included at a higher concentration for smoothing.
- Olive Fruit Oil (Glyceride α) — Rich emollient that coats hair for a glossy, smooth finish.
