How does Bio-Ionic Natural Ion hair therapy treatment work?
Bio Ionic Ion Hair Treatment is a chemical process that permanently straightens or "repairs" curly hair.

The Bio Ionic Natural Ion Hair Therapy Treatment Professional Hair Care Retexturising System utilises patented and technologically advanced natural Ion energy to deliver natural negative Ions to the hair. Natural negative Ion energy is powerful enough to atomise water by breaking down water molecule clusters into micro fine particles that can penetrate the hair shaft, restoring the moisture balance of the hair while sealing the hair cuticle to retain that moisture.

What makes Bio Ionic Professional Hair Care System different from other hair care lines? The Bio Ionic Professional Hair Care System is the first professional hair care system in the Western Hemisphere that utilizes Natural Ion Complex to deliver natural negative ions to the hair.

What are Ions? Ions are atoms that have gained or lost an electron and carry a charge of energy. Positive ions, found in dust, smoke and other toxic substances, have lost an electron and are considered unhealthy. Negative Ions have gained an electron and greatly assist in the body's overall health, energy level and mood.

What is Natural Ion Complex? Natural Ion Complex is the name for the active mineral complex that naturally produces negative ions, that was discovered in Japan .

How do negative ions affect the hair? Research shows that negative ions can break water molecule clusters into micro-fine particles, allowing moisture to penetrate the hair shaft. Therefore, natural moisture balance is restored to the hair.

Does the Natural Ion Complex in the products ever wear out? No, it does not. It will be effective for the life of the product. Results achieved with the Bio Ionic Professional Hair Care Retexturising System Products are immediate. Hair is renewed, repaired and revitalised, leaving it with a softer, smoother and shinier finish.

What are the results? Hair is naturally moisturised and conditioned. It becomes smoother, softer, and shinier with less frizz and static electricity. Hair becomes stronger and healthier overall.

What type of hair can be Bio Ionically treated?
Thermal reconditioning can be done on all hair types depending on the condition, YOUR HAIR IS UNIQUE! You should consult a hair stylist prior to the treatment to view your hair and discuss whether you are a good candidate. Highlighted hair can be treated, but the process is more involved. The bleached strands are woven out and treated differently. Protection and fillers are applied to reduce damaged and a milder solution is used on bleached hair.

Are Bio Ionic products for all hair types, or only for people who have curly hair but want to wear it straight? Bio Ionic products are for all hair types, with the exception of the Ion- Retexturising System. The Ion- Retexturising System is a permanent straightening process designed for people with curly, frizzy or unruly hair who want to wear their hair permanently.

Can I straighten my hair if it has color or highlights or seems a little damaged? Yes. A technician will determine the condition of your hair by doing a test on the most damaged area. At that time you and the stylist will look at the choices you have and make a decision about the product. What is important is that your hair maintains its integrity so that the best results can be achieved. Please do not colour for two weeks before and two weeks after. Please note that split ends will be visible for two weeks after and will need to be trimmed.

How long does the process take?
Three to six hours, contingent upon length and condition ( colour, highlights, etc.) of the hair.

How much does Thermal Reconditioning cost?
This depends on the length and texture of hair. The determining factors are how much hair you have, your hair length, condition of your hair and what chemical treatments have been used in the past. This is a labour intensive job and must be done by a qualified technician and not a shamphooist . On average a salon will charge between R1500 - R5500. Quotes cannot be made over the phone and a quote will be given during a consultation only.

How long does the treatment last?
Treated hair is straight forever! New growth is your natural texture. We touch up re-growth every 6 months to 18 months, as we would a tint, depending on tightness of curl. This usually costs 30 to 40% less.


Will I still need to blow-dry or style after the treatments?
Yes, but drying time will be dramatically reduced. It really depends on the level of finish desired. Your hair will be straight and it will feel soft and silky with a lot of shine. Long term care of treated hair?
Your hair is now chemically treated. The process cannot be guaranteed if you are not using professional products. Even though the illusion is that your hair is in much better condition you must use a recommended professional Shampoo & Conditioner to maintain the illusion. Please treat your hair regularly.

Your appointment
Please allow a half day for your first visit. It is imperative to have a consultation with the stylist prior to having this process. It can't be stressed enough how important it is for clients to tell the truth. Clients can be embarrassed to admit that they use supermarket products or other styling products not stocked by the salon. However for this system to work best, it is imperative for the technician to know all the products that is used in the hair.

If you booked your appointment without seeing a Bio Ionic Technician first, then allow for slightly more time. Please wear, or bring along, an old top, as quite a lot of moisture is used during the process.

There are a number of thermal-reconditioning systems in the market place, but none of them can claim the superior results of the patented Bio Ionic System, which was developed by a Japanese bio-molecular scientist.
