DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF TOKIO INKARAMI TREATMENT AND OLAPLEX TREATMENT
When it comes to repairing damaged hair, two top-of-the-line treatments often come up: Tokio Inkarami and Olaplex . These treatments promise a profound hair transformation, but they work differently and address specific needs. So, Tokio or Olaplex? While we always perform a hair diagnosis at the beginning of each treatment at the GRENADINE salon in Lyon , here's a detailed guide to understand the technology behind each treatment.
TOKIO OR OLAPLEX?
Tokio treatment: the power of keratin and fullerene
Tokio Inkarami treatment, of Japanese origin, is designed to intensely repair and strengthen the hair fiber . Its technology is based on:
- Hydrolyzed keratin : penetrates deep to rebuild hair structure.
- Amino acids : provide hydration and suppleness.
- Fullerene : a powerful antioxidant that allows active ingredients to better penetrate and protect hair from external aggressions.
- The Inkarami process : it allows keratin proteins to bond together for lasting repair.
Results : Hair is shiny, more resistant, nourished and strengthened for several weeks.
🔬 Olaplex: reconstruction of disulfide bonds, Plex technology
Olaplex, on the other hand, is based on a patented technology that targets disulfide bonds , essential for hair strength.
- It contains a unique molecule ( Bis-Aminopropyl Diglycol Dimaleate ) which repairs bridges broken by bleaching, coloring and other chemical treatments .
- It reduces breakage , improves elasticity and protects the hair fiber from future damage.
🛠 Result : less brittle, more resistant hair protected from chemical damage .
Which treatment should I choose according to my hair type?
Colored, bleached, highlighted hair → Olaplex recommended : it protects and rebuilds the fiber weakened by coloring.
Dry, brittle, damaged hair → Tokio Inkarami recommended : it nourishes deeply and provides intense repair.
Fine and fragile hair → Both treatments are suitable : Olaplex reconstructs, while Tokio strengthens and hydrates.
Hair that has undergone straightening or chemical treatment → The two are complementary : Olaplex to protect and repair, Tokio to nourish and hydrate.
Can you combine Tokio and Olaplex?
Oh yes, these two treatments are complementary ! The ideal is to use Olaplex after bleaching or coloring to repair the fiber in depth , then do a Tokio Inkarami to moisturize, nourish and strengthen the hair .
The routine recommended by Grenadine :
- Olaplex post-bleaching/coloring to rebuild the internal structure.
- Tokio Inkarami a few weeks later to restore strength, shine and elasticity to the hair.
A simple and effective recap?
If your hair is very damaged by chemical treatments → Opt for Olaplex . 📌 If your hair is dry, brittle and lacking nutrition → Tokio Inkarami is the best option . 📌 If you want a complete and lasting repair → Combine the two treatments!
Whatever your choice, the main thing is to maintain your hair with suitable products and to favor deep treatments for shiny and healthy hair! ✨
