The words zero-gravity usually bring to mind astronauts floating in space.  But that’s how Philip’s weightless moisturizers work in the hair!  Philip’s smart technology products are loaded with humectants that lock essential moisture deep inside the hair fiber. 

They help protect from heat styling and color/chemical services, create shine, help hold color, reduce static and all without weighing the hair down.  That’s why we refer to them as zero-gravity or weightless! 

As stylists we can then hydrate any texture and scalp leaving them with a light, never-heavy feeling.  Other products try to create the illusion of moisture by coating the outside of the hair/scalp with cheap polymers that make hair temporarily “feel good” while wet, but do not have any substantial benefits. 

Instead Philip’s hundreds of revolutionary humectants; Patent Pending Hydro-Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex, Cassia Angustiolia Seed, Hyaluronic Acid, Milk Thistle Oil, Matricaria, Sunflower Seed, Blackberry, Grapeseed, Asafetida, Honey and Guar, just to name a few, have incredible long-lasting effects!

Let’s face it, the higher quality the hair fabric the better our design looks and the happier the guest!  This was Philip’s exact motivation to create his cosmeceutical breakthrough the Hydro-Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex! 

After years in the making, this exclusive Patent Pending Micro-emulsion (micro meaning small molecule, emulsion meaning mixture) helps restore hair to a healthier state by penetrating the hair fiber and binding plant derived ceramides to reinforce damaged sites making hair perform more like stronger, healthy hair.

Philip’s revolutionary Hydro-Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex helps keep the cuticle layer tightly in-tact helping to seal in color molecules further protecting the customers color investment and the designers color creation!  Scalp and hair retain more moisture to help resist against damaging factors such as color, chemicals and thermal styling. 

Bottom line…hair will feel and look healthier, more lustrous and shiny.  Better fabric means better design!  Remember we wear our hair everyday and so do our guests!  You will find the Hydro-Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex in every P2 by Philip Pelusi Shampoo and Conditioner as well as throughout the entire P2 and Tela Beauty Organics product lines.

P2 by Philip Pelusi Polish is now both Silicone Free and Vegan!  P2 Polish contains Tomato Fruit Extract loaded with fortifying vitamins and minerals including Calcium, Iron, Magnesium, Phosphorus, Potassium, Zinc, Copper, Selenium, Vitamin B6, B12 and Folate (a form of Vitamin B9).  Tomato Fruit Extract is also rich in antioxidants Vitamins A, C and E that help protect hair strength and chemically and color treated hair.

Organic Baobab Seed Oil hydrates, creates lustrous shine and provides heat protection and frizz reduction.  Philip chooses the gold standard cold-pressed Organic Baobab Seed Oil meaning it retains its nutritional value during processing.  It is rich with Vitamin D3 and 5 Fatty Acids that nourish and moisturize hair and scalp without weighing down hair.

The Hydro Charged Pelusi Ceramide Complex joins the ingredient listing giving P2 Polish next-level color protection.  This is a universal-texture complex of plant derived ceramides mimics the ceramides (known as lipids) found in between cuticle layers.  It helps seal each cuticle layer to each other and to the cortex helping seal in color molecules below.  This proprietary mixture strengthens, hydrates, helps protect color and creates shine.

Jojoba Oil joins the P2 Polish ingredient lineup, derived from the seeds of the Simmondsia chinensis plant, a shrub native to AZ, CA, and northern Mexico.  It possesses excellent healing and hydrating properties as well as providing heat protection, shine and detangling.

Squalane has also been added to the formula as a key source of antioxidants beneficial to hair color preservation.  Extracted from various plants, vegetables, and grains, Squalane also provides moisture and increased shine.

Chic Geek ~ Hair Structure Refresher!

Posted on Posted in Chic Geek

What is the cuticle layer of the hair?  The outer cuticle is the “armor” of the hair laying like shingles on a roof protecting the inner workings of the cortex.  The cuticle is made of protein!  Larger hair strands such as resistant 100% grey or thick or coarse hair contain more cuticle layers while finer strands contain less.

When the cuticle is healthy and smooth it reflects light and appears shiny, hair styles and performs better.  When the cuticle is damaged hair looks dull, dry, tangles easily and won’t hold a style or color as well.
