Do you need to use a clarifying shampoo prior to using the lanza keratin infusion?

No you don't. I originally just bought the keratin infusion and love how it feels on my hair. I have thicker wavy hair that can sometimes be hard to manage as it gets frizzy. The keratin infusion keeps the friz away without weighing it down and leaves it really soft. I decided to try the shampoo later. I think they work really well together as the shampoo eliminates buildup, but its optional. They both smell great and are sulfate free as well.

I do not know whether I need to first wash with a clarifying shampoo, but I do. I actually purchased the keratin infusion as a complement to the clarifyer.

yes, it works much better than other deep conditioners, but only if you use a clarifying shampoo first.

It is not creamy in the way you probably mean. An example of creamy would be the Pureology Volume (the Pink one). This one is a mixture between creamy and clear. However, if you are asking because clear shampoos tend to be harsher on hair, this one is NOT harsh on hair. As an example, a clarifying or purifying shampoo, which is meant to clean product build up (and should be used once a week), would be clear. This shampoo will not clean up product build up. This is an every day shampoo that will leave your hair feeling silky and soft, but very clean as well.

No, this shampoo won't lather like regular shampoo. It is similar to the "wen" shampoo, thought much cheaper. It is a basic 3:1 mix of conditioner and shampoo. The first time I used it I thought the same thing. You don't need much of the product to wash your hair. I have shoulder length hair and use 1-1.5 pumps for my entire head. What I do like is having no more tangles when I go to comb through my wet hair.

I believe that was probably an accident in the description. I have both the shampoo and conditioner and the conditioner needs to be diluted 7:1 (it says it on the bottle), but I always just used the shampoo straight and it was fine.

Hi Bonnie, Yes they do. Just look for the 'system kit' with the number you're after, and follow it with 'cleanser' for the shampoo or 'scalp revitaliser' for the conditioner. Sincerely, Matthew Crowson Beauty Cloud

No. The Rinso Blue was a laundry additive, not shampoo.I'm not advising you to do it. Use the Pantene. It's great! In in Florida & the sun & pool water, & ocean can really be hard on any hair. I have no problems using Pantene.

NO! You only need a small amount depending on the length of your hair. I used it on towel dried hair and styled and let it air dry. It didn't have that real stiff or waxed look and I got the soft messy look I wanted. If I wanted to "comb" my hair I would just wet my hands and restyle. I love this product, my hair is still short but longer than when I first started using it and it is also a great pre styling product before I dry and use a curling iron or brush.I am very confident that you will love this product and remember a little goes a long way! I hope this helped.

Yes. You use the set in the order it is set up in the picture. the shampoo, the rinse and then the treatment in the jar last. The rinse is still conditoner, you just rinse it out right away rather that letting it sit for the 20 0r 30 minutes that you have to let the treatment in the big jar sit in your hair for. Hence the name rinse.

Before you do a keratin treatment on your hair, you have to wash your hair with a clarifying shampoo that rids the hair of all residues. After the keratin treatment you should wash the hair with sulfate and sodium free shampoos.

I use my regular styling products and my curling iron, etc. I normally put a small amount of Nioxin conditioner on the top of my head, rub in and then I use my regular conditioner on the ends, I do have longer hair, so it helps to de tangle and give it a smooth silky feel.

Yes you must use a neturalizing shampoo after applying the relaxer to stop the chemical process.

I generally use conditioner after the shampoo. Strawberry scented is especially effective.

No. It's conditioner that cleanses, so there isn't any lather. I rub some through the ends of my hair as a leave in conditioner too! Massage it in well, and rinse!

You should use a clarifying shampoo before-hand, any brand but make sure it is clarifying. Then for maintenance you need a sulfate free shampoo. You can use other shampoo but the keratin will not last as long.

I use it about every month. In between the protein, I use argon dry oil daily. and yes, if you use a clarifying shampoo like it says to use, it will strip some color. However, it isn't the protein that strips color, it's the clarifying shampoo that may take some color out.

you can use any brand of keratin safe shampoo and conditioners I have been using this product for years and I have always used another product with it. what I do recommend you purchase is the leave in conditioning treatment that Liquid keratin brand offers. I think it works pretty well and adds an extra layer of protection to your hair if you flatiron.

I will ask my hairdresser. I also did a Google search and found these: http://www.lanza-hair.co.uk/lanza-faq/, and http://www.bhuz.com/belly-dance-beauty-costuming/71970-avoiding-sulfates-shampoo.html, which specifically mentions L'anza - scroll down to #9. Will post again if I get more information.
