Why we stand behind it
After surveying more than 700 customers, volume emerged as the single most desired hair benefit. Amaranth was selected to address it directly: in third-party tensile testing, it helped improve the appearance of hair fiber diameter by approximately 14%, supporting bounce, reducing friction between strands, and enhancing style retention.
A patented aniseed myrtle extract addresses scalp health at the source — helping stimulate specialized pro-resolving mediators, inhibit inflammatory mediators, rebalance scalp pH, and reduce the appearance of dandruff and excess oil.
Kombucha ferment, produced through SCOBY fermentation of black tea, brings a measured layer of scalp exfoliation. Its organic acids (lactic, glucuronic, gluconic, acetic) help loosen follicle-blocking residue and product buildup without disrupting the scalp barrier — leaving the scalp clean and primed to receive the full benefits of the Power Fol Scalp Treatment that follows. Fermentation also amplifies polyphenol antioxidant activity, contributes postbiotic compounds that support microbiome balance, and enriches the formula with B vitamins and Vitamin C.
The formula rinses cleanly, leaving nothing behind that could interfere with treatment absorption.
In Dia-Stron MTT third-party testing:
• Appearance of hair volume more than doubled (150%) vs. untreated tresses
• Appearance of shine improved up to 105%
• Appearance of excess sebum reduced by 59%
• Appearance of dandruff reduced by up to 100%

What is an undertone?
An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.
