I am incredibly excited to introduce the latest innovation in hair bond repair to the studio. For years, we have relied on technology to protect hair during chemical services, but the science has recently taken a significant leap forward.
The Science Behind the Bond
Epres was created by Dr Eric Pressly, the lead chemist and material scientist behind the original Olaplex formulas. With Epres, he has evolved the technology into a highly sophisticated, one-step system designed to repair chemical, thermal, and mechanical damage at a molecular level.
Unlike many traditional treatments that use heavy silicones to coat the hair, Epres uses Biodiffusive Technology. This allows the active repair ingredients to continue moving through the hair fibre even after the hair is dry, constantly seeking out and repairing broken bonds.
Why I Have Chosen Epres for the Studio
This treatment aligns perfectly with my commitment to high-performance, ethical hairdressing.
- Instant Structural Integrity: You will notice your hair feels stronger and more elastic after a single application.
- Pure Formula: It is entirely vegan, cruelty-free, and silicone-free.
- Sustainable Innovation: The system uses highly concentrated formulas to reduce shipping weight and CO2 emissions, with fully recyclable packaging.
Your Professional Epres Experience
I believe so strongly in the protective power of this technology that I have integrated it directly into my technical workflow.
In the Studio: Enhanced Colour Protection
I now include the Epres Professional Bond Repair in all my lightening services. I mix the concentrate directly into your colour or lightener; it works to reinforce the internal structure of your hair while the colour processes, ensuring the healthiest possible result without adding any extra time to your appointment.
At Home: Maintaining the Results
To ensure your hair remains resilient between visits, I recommend the Epres Home Delivery System. This is a unique, spray-on treatment that you apply to dry hair before your usual washing routine.
How to use your Epres Home Kit:
- Mix: Pour one concentrate vial into the Epres spray bottle and fill with water.
- Saturate: Spray onto dry hair until it is thoroughly damp.
- Wait: Leave the treatment for a minimum of 10 minutes. Because the technology is biodiffusive, it never stops working; you can leave it on for several hours or even overnight for maximum repair.
- Cleanse: Shampoo and condition as normal.
One starter kit provides approximately six months of weekly treatments, and I stock the glass refill vials in the studio to help you reduce plastic waste.
