The "Clean Slate" Method
Using Our Products For The First Time:
Before you can begin using IntrinsiCurly Me, you will need to remove all build up from silicones and waxes which may already exist on your hair.
We call this the IntrinsiCurly Me “Clean Slate Method”.

Experience the ultimate scalp massage with our Exfoliating Scalp Massage Brush. With IntrinsiCurly Me's Exfoliating Scalp Massaging Brush your scalp woes will be a thing of the past. Add this massaging scalp brush to your hair care regimen for a good head massage and deeper exfoliation.
Bon Bon Deep Conditioning Cap
Without heat, your treatment can only do so much to improve the quality of your hair.
Typically, the cuticle is closed, so the treatment is only able to work on the surface of the hair shaft. The results are minimal and superficial when compared to heat enhanced deep conditioning treatments. Using the Bon Bon enables the hair cuticle to open for an extended period, allowing the treatment to penetrate the hair shaft, nourishing it from the inside out.
Instructions
Step #1: Wet Your Hair
Start by thoroughly wetting your hair with warm water, making sure that it is sopping wet.
Step #2: Apply Shampoo
Using the applicator nozzle, apply the Just To Clarify Clarifying Shampoo to your scalp.
Step #3: Massage Your Scalp
Using your fingerpads or an Exfoliating Scalp Massage Brush, gently massage the shampoo into your scalp in a circular motion. Work the product into your scalp for about 2 - 3 minutes.
Step #4: Lather
Work the product through your hair from your roots to your ends. Adding more water and more product if needed, then emulsify. Continue washing ensuring your hair remains sopping wet as you go. Wash for 2-3 minutes to thoroughly remove dirt and buildup.
Step #5: Rinse & Repeat
Rinse your hair thoroughly with clean water.
Step #6: Repeat, If Desired
If you feel like your hair needs an extra dose of clarifying power, you can repeat the shampooing process. If it didn’t foam the first time it’s a good indication that you need another wash. If you’re trying to remove silicones from your hair a second wash is needed.
Step #7: Deep Conditioning
Because clarifying shampoos are so effective in removing buildup and impurities, your curls may feel a bit dryer after washing. To keep your curls in tip-top shape, we highly recommend treating them to a deep conditioning session using our One & Only Creamy Conditioner.
