Frequency depends on hair condition and service history. Typically every 4–6 weeks for severely damaged hair, and every 8–12 weeks for maintenance. Your Headquarters stylist will assess porosity and recommend a schedule tailored to your texture and styling habits.

Yes. Protein Treatments rebuild and temporarily strengthen damaged strands by filling gaps in the hair cortex. They improve texture, reduce breakage, and support healthier color retention. Multiple sessions may be needed for extensive damage; we'll customize treatment intensity.

Results vary by hair type and home care. Expect improved strength and shine for about 4–8 weeks. Using gentle shampoos, minimizing heat styling, and following your stylist's recommended maintenance will extend the benefits between salon visits.

Yes, but timing matters. Protein Treatments pair well after color correction or chemical services to rebuild structure; however, some services require spacing. Your Headquarters stylist will plan sequencing to protect color and ensure optimal repair results.

Fine or thinning hair can benefit from targeted protein, but strength without weight is important. We tailor product concentration and application to avoid stiffness while adding resilience and gentle volume. A consultation will determine the right approach.

Rinse with sulfate-free, gentle shampoos, limit hot tools, and use leave-in moisturizers recommended by your stylist. Schedule follow-up treatments as advised and protect hair from sun and chlorine to maintain repair and prolong treatment effects.
