how does the k18 mask work?
The K18 mask works as a treatment to reverse damage in 4 minutess,It's powered by our biomimetic K18PEPTIDE to seamlessly fit in and reconnect broken polypoptide chains at the molecoular level, As a rosult,disulfide bonds are also roconnected for roinforced strongth along the length t width of hair-offering comprehensive, lasting, and progressive repair.
what is the k18peptide?
what is the k18peptide?
K18PEPTIDE is a biotech-develpped peptide that mimics hair's structure to reverse damage by reconnecting polypeptide chains and disurfide bonds broken during damage from bleach + color, chemical services, and heat*
why skip conditioner?
why skip conditioner?
Conditioner leaves a film that blocks our peptide from penetrating effectively. Once the 4-minute wait time is up,feel free to use a conditioner, a leave-in, or any type of product.
i noticed there's alcohol in the formula, isn't that bad for you?
i noticed there's alcohol in the formula, isn't that bad for you?
We like to keep our formulas minimal,only using the exact amount of ingrecients needed to get the peptide where it needs to go. Here the alcohol serves as an agent to optimize the hair environment for the K18 mask to work on a deeper level. Our unique blend of 3 alcohols functions to open the hair cuticdle so the K18PEPTIDE can penetrate the innermost layer of hair, reaching the broken polypeptide chains (keratin chains).
when should i expect to see results?
when should i expect to see results?
Most see results after 2-3 uses. The more damaged the hair,the more dramatic the resuts so it may vary depencing on your hair type and level of damage.
how to use molecular repair mask
1. Shampoo, do not condition. Towel-dry thoroughly.
2. Apply 1-3 pumps based on your length and density,starting at the ends and working up towards the roots.
3. Let sit for 4 minutes. Do not rinse out.
4. Comb, add styling product + style as usual. Use for 4-6washes, then as needed.
our story
Our story began with a decade of complex research into the bioscience of hair, resulting in our patented molecular repair peptide. Through this research and the application of Synthetic biology, we are able to do more with less,simplifying formulations and routines to support hair health and expression at home and in the salon.

K18PEPTIDE
K18PEPTIDE repairs hair at a molecular level across
multiple types of bonds including polypeptide chains and disulfide bonds to reverse damage from bleach, color,chemical services, and heat*. Developed through biotechnology, the K18PEPTIDE is optimized for human biology and uniquely matches and clicks into hair's keratin structure, reconnecting damage sites at the molecular level, K18PEPTIDE delivers durable repair for all hair types, restoring strength and elasticity.
odorBIND
odorBIND revolutionizes what's possible when targeting and eliminating odors. Using biotechnology and synthetic biology, K18 bioscientists utilized DNA databases to find and mimic the strongest olfactory systems (our sense ofsmell) found in nature. odorBIND harnesses that understanding of nature and biology to uniquely recognize,trap, and eliminate malodors, rendering them undetectable and releasing a subtle fragrance in their place. This smart-release molecule is vegan, cruelty-free, and cortified Kosher and Halal. Find it in AirWash, the reinvention ofdry shampoo.
resilicore
Patented resilicore heat-shielding technology protects from heat deeper than ever before*. Unlike traditional heat protectants that only coat hair's cuticle, the size +molecular makeup of resilicore allows it to penetrate into hair's core to defend against heat from the cuticle to the cortex*-as deep as heat damage goes. Inspired by proteins in nature that can withstand extreme tomperatures, this protective shield fortifies hair from within for maximum protection against color fade, dry feeling,dullness, and breakage. This heat-shielding tech is inspired by nature, and recreated in the lab to be vegan, sustainable+ and cruelty-free. Find it in HeatBounce, the future of heat protection.
How much leave-in mask do you*really* need?
In most cases, the more hair you have, the more pumps of the mask you'll need to use. But it's not always that cut-and-dry. For instance, you may have fine hair but a lot of it. Or perhaps you have curly hair but it's on the thinner side.Similarly, maybe your stands are short but you bleach them super often. All of these discrepancies will inffuence how much of the mask your hair actually needs.

The Top K18 Mask FAQs
How often should I use it?
How often should I use it?
Our mask is designed to be a powerful treatment that repairs damaged hair. But the key to using it effectively is understanding how often to apply it and how much to use.
Generally, you can use it once or twice a week, depending on how much repair your hair needs. If your hair is very damaged or over-processed, you might want to start using it more frequently, but if you're maintaining healthy hair,once a week should be plenty.
How much should I use?
How much should I use?
For most people, a little bit will go a long way, and using too much can actually weigh hair down or leave it feeling greasy. So, it's important to use just the right amount. Use our calculator to find your ideal dosage.
Does it work for all hair types?
Does it work for all hair types?
Yes. Whether you have straight, wavy,curly,coily, fine,thick, or aging hair, the mask has the ability to help repair and strengthen your strands.
I have curly and coily hair. Should I use it?
I have curly and coily hair. Should I use it?
Yes! The mask works beautifully for this hair type because it helps to detangle and define cur's while also providing essential repair. After applying the mask, detangle with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to help enhance the shape and definition of your cur's as you let them air dry or diffuse them (the mask's treatment properties will also protect
curls from heat damage during the styling process).
I have aging hair. Is this product for me?
I have aging hair. Is this product for me?
Yes! Aging hair is often more fragile and prone to breakage, and the mask can make a significant difference in preserving your hair's natural integrity. One key tip: when applying the mask,focus on the areas that need the most care first. With aging hair,this is usually around the temples, crown, or nape of the neck. This can help you achieve aneven, nourished result without overloading your hair with product.
My hair is really damaged. How should I mask?
My hair is really damaged. How should I mask?
The mask is especially effective on damaged hair, whether caused by heat styling, chemical treatments, or environmental factors. To apply: Focus on the most compromised sections first-such as the mid-Iengths and ends before working the product toward healthier areas, using a gentle touch. This will ensure that your hair gets the concentrated treatment it needs without over-saturating healthier sections.
Should I skip conditioner after?
Should I skip conditioner after?
This is our most-asked question of all time, and the short answer is: yes, you can skip conditioner after! The mask itself is highly conditioning and also works as a light detangler, so simply apply and let it work its magic. If you have particularly dry hair, though, you might choose to follow the mask with a light leave-in conditioner or styling product,but it's generally not necessary.
