System Professional is the haircare brand that always
seems to have its finger on the pulse. Well, it does come under the Wella
umbrella so you would expect the products to be cutting edge and perform to a
high standard.
Having been under the weather with one of the many viruses
doing the rounds, my hair was in much need of a boost. So, I wanted to try out
the new System Professional with Energycode Complex.
What appealed to me about this treatment is that it has been
geared to your hair type. The scientists at System Professional, in
collaboration with leading stylists, have discovered the Holy Grail to creating great hair. They found that all of us has, in
their words, “our own hair energy profile” which they conclude is as unique as
our fingerprint.

According to Dr Ramon Grimalt, independent hair biologist
and professor of dermatology at the University of Barcelona, managing the right
levels and condition of both keratin and lipids in an individual’s hair is the
key to influencing its structure which ultimately will determine whether hair
is smooth or frizzy, shiny or dull, limp or full of bounce.
Apparently, hair with the right energy levels is
well-behaved and does exactly what it is told. It holds a style and has that
mirror shine which we all lust after. Glossy hair can instantly make you
look younger.
Can my limp and lifeless locks be transformed that easily?
Paris, my stylist, at HOB Salons, Baker Street, started by asking me about the
state of my hair, what I liked and did not like about it. This was all part of
System Professional’s new Energycode Mapping hair and scalp analysis to
diagnose my unique hair energy profile. Using an in-salon app, she asked
a series of questions regarding my crowning glory.
When Paris created a hair energy profile for me, she gave me
my personalised regimen of goodies which was packed full of Energycode Complex.
Like me, you are probably wondering
what exactly this is wondering what exactly this is.
Here is what you need to know. Galvanised by the world of
luxury skincare, this potent elixir is a melange of five naturally occurring
ingredients help to revitalise the hair. It comprises scalp active ingredients
to improve blood circulation (caffeine), moisturiser for the scalp (vitamin B3
Amide) and active ingredients (two natural lipids) to revive and hold hair
keratin together as well as histidine, an amino acid, said to recharge every
strand and help fight free radicals.
With over 174 million care systems to choose from, this was
my personal prescription.
Hydrate Shampoo (H1)
Smoothen Conditioner (S2)
Luxe Oil Reconstructive Elixir (L4)
Smoothen Curl Definer
Treatment: Hydrate Mask plus Smoothen Mask
My hair was washed, a treatment applied and a touch of
Smoothen Curl Definer applied before blow-drying.
There was certainly a difference in my hair, thanks to the
treatment. It was incredibly sleek and smooth with just the right amount of
body and the shine was almost mirror like.
I am now using the products at home and have been really
pleased with the results. When your hair looks good you feel good.
