ULTIMATE REPAIR

1. THE RISE OF ROUTINES

THE SKINIFICATION OF HAIR

Skincare inspired, science-based products and personalized routines.

The haircare category is evolving, from hygiene to beauty, following skincare trends.

Hair repair and damage prevention is the No.1* hair concern of clients.

2. CAUSES OF DAMAGE

9/10 OF YOUR CLIENTS DAMAGE THEIR HAIR EVERY DAY

BEAUTIFUL HAIR TODAY SHOULDN’T MEAN DAMAGED HAIR TOMORROW.

HEAT

Blow-drying and hot tool usage can contribute to hair damage.

POLLUTION

Pollution and metal impurities can build up on hair, contributing to dullness, stress on the hair fiber, and visible damage.

DAILY

WEAR & TEAR

Damage doesn’t just come from styling — it can happen during everyday moments like washing, brushing, and combing.

UV

UV exposure from the sun can contribute to hair damage.

CHEMICAL TREATMENTS

While color changes can contribute to damage, the bigger impact often comes from the daily routines and environmental stressors hair faces over time.

3. TECHNOLOGY

PATENTED TECHNOLOGY FOR HEALTHY LOOKING HAIR

HEALTHY LOOKING HAIR NEEDS TO BE STRONG FROM THE INSIDE AND OUT.

OMEGA-9 REPLENISHES HAIR OUTSIDE

Alpha-Hydroxy Acid is an organic acid, small enough to penetrate the hair fiber at the deepest level. Rebuilding hydrogen bonds in the cortex, for a strong hair core.

FUN FACT

In skincare, AHA is widely recognized for its exfoliating benefits and its role in supporting collagen production to help strengthen the skin. In haircare, AHA helps reinforce the hair fiber by supporting the rebuilding of hydrogen bonds. AHA REBUILDS BONDS INSIDE

A bio-identical lipid that targets the outer layer of the hair fiber, coating the surface and helping fill the cuticle to recreate a protective barrier.

A powerful combination of AHA and bio-identical Omega-9 delivers ULTIMATE REPAIR results you can see and feel.

THE RESULT: HAIR IS REPAIRED INSIDE & OUT

4. PRODUCTS & ROUTINE

FOLLOW THE FULL ROUTINE FOR ULTIMATE RESULTS

ULTIMATE REPAIR IS THE COMPLETE SOLUTION FOR DAMAGED HAIR, WITH A LUXURIOUS 5-STEP ROUTINE.

THE ULTIMATE ROUTINE, INSPIRED BY SKINCARE

01.

ULTIMATE REPAIR SHAMPOO

Apply shampoo to wet hair. Work a small amount between clean palms, then gently massage throughout the hair and scalp. Rinse thoroughly, continuing to massage with water until all lather is removed. Gently pat hair dry with a soft towel. For hair with heavy styling product buildup, repeat cleansing as needed.

02.

ULTIMATE REPAIR CONDITIONER

For moderately damaged hair OR

ULTIMATE REPAIR INTENSE MASK

For heavily damaged hair

After cleansing, towel-dry the hair gently. Apply Conditioner or Mask evenly on lengths & ends.

Conditioner: Let sit for 30 seconds –3 minutes.

Mask: Allow the treatment to sit for 5–10 minutes, gently massaging the scalp for a more pampering experience. Rinse thoroughly.

THE ULTIMATE ROUTINE, INSPIRED BY SKINCARE

03.

ULTIMATE REPAIR MIRACLE HAIR RESCUE

Apply ULTIMATE REPAIR Miracle Hair Rescue to repair hair damage in just 90 seconds. Mist evenly throughout the hair, focusing on the lengths and ends in the front, back, and sides. A light spritz is all you need. Allow it to absorb for 90 seconds before layering on any additional products.

04. ULTIMATE REPAIR PROTECTIVE LEAVE-IN

As dermatologists often emphasize, protection is one of the most important steps in any skincare routine — and the same idea applies to haircare.

Apply 1–4 drops of ULTIMATE REPAIR 5-in-1 Protective Leave-In to help protect hair against five key concerns: breakage, heat, UV, mechanical damage, and frizz.

05. ULTIMATE REPAIR NIGHT SERUM

Before bed, apply 2–4 pumps of ULTIMATE REPAIR Night Serum to dry or damp hair, focusing on mid-lengths and ends. Leave in overnight—no rinse needed. As you sleep, the serum helps protect hair by creating an invisible shield against night stressors like friction and frizz.

CLEANSE & PREPARE

ULTIMATE REPAIR SHAMPOO

ULTIMATE REPAIR Shampoo is a rich, creamy shampoo that gently yet effectively cleanses with a luxurious lather. It helps remove impurities that can be harmful to hair — including metals, product buildup, oils, dirt, and pollution — while beginning the repair process.

SHAMPOO HOW TO USE

PREPARE HAIR FOR TREATMENT WITH METAL PURIFIER TECHNOLOGY, HELPING DETOX THE HAIR* FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS.

BRUSH THE HAIR

Gently brush through the hair to remove knots, tangles, and product residue, helping prepare the hair to better receive the treatment. Wet hair thoroughly.

EMULSIFY FROM SCALP TO ENDS

Apply ULTIMATE REPAIR Shampoo to your hands and work into a rich lather. Massage from scalp to ends, ensuring even distribution throughout the hair. For best results, shampoo twice using a smaller amount each time, as this can be more effective than one larger application.

REMOVE IMPURITIES

Work the luxurious lather through the lengths and ends to help remove impurities that can be harmful to the hair, including metals, product buildup, oils, dirt, and pollution.

CONDITION & MAINTAIN ULTIMATE REPAIR CONDITIONER

ULTIMATE REPAIR Conditioner is a creamy daily conditioner that helps detangle, deeply strengthen, and repair hair without weighing it down. It delivers intense inner strength while leaving hair feeling soft, clean, fresh, and touchably smooth.

REPAIR & PAMPER ULTIMATE REPAIR INTENSE MASK

ULTIMATE REPAIR Intense Mask features a rich, creamy texture and adaptive technology that targets the most damaged areas of the hair. It helps repair where hair needs it most, leaving strands smoother, easier to detangle, and intensely conditioned — without a heavy feel.

CONDITIONER/MASK HOW TO USE

INTENSE INNER STRENGTH AND REPAIR.

CHOOSE THE BEST OPTION FOR YOUR CLIENT

Choose ULTIMATE REPAIR Conditioner for damaged hair or when a lightweight feel is desired.

Choose ULTIMATE REPAIR Intense Mask for heavily damaged hair or when hair needs intense smoothness and deeper care.

START WITH THE MOST DAMAGED AREAS

Begin applying the product where hair is most damaged, typically at the top of the head and through the most compromised areas. Warm the product between your hands before applying to help ensure even distribution.

PROCESSING TIME

Conditioner: Leave on for 30 seconds to 3 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.

Mask: Leave on for 5–10 minutes, gently massaging the scalp for a more pampering experience. Rinse thoroughly.

BOOST MOISTURE

Soak a towel in warm water, then wrap it around the head for a relaxing, spa-like experience. The warmth helps soften the cuticle and supports faster product penetration, helping boost treatment benefits without causing stress to the hair.

TREAT & REPAIR

SALON EXCLUSIVE

PRE-TREATMENT ULTIMATE REPAIR RECOVERY LIQUID LAYER

CO-DESIGNED WITH ROMEU FELIPE

to address hair concerns prior to lightening and coloring services.

A salon-exclusive pre-lightening and color treatment that balances porosity for even color payoff while helping repair existing damage. Leaves hair feeling healthier after lightening and oxidative services—with zero additional wait time.

• Ideal for stressed, porous, or chemically treated hair

• Helps create an even and clean canvas before lightening / coloring services

• Reduces breakage after lightening services* and, detoxes hair from metals

RECOVERY LIQUID LAYER

HOW TO USE

ULTIMATE REPAIR RECOVERY LIQUID LAYER

Apply ULTIMATE REPAIR Recovery Liquid Layer to dry, unwashed hair before lightening and coloring services.

BLOW-DRY

Blow-dry into hair using a cool or medium heat setting, without brushing. The formula dries quickly into the hair with no oily residue.

LIGHTEN OR COLOR

Proceed immediately with desired lightening or coloring service and technique.

ULTIMATE REPAIR Recovery Liquid Layer begins the repair journey by addressing the outside damage at the cuticle layer.

THE RESULT WHY IT WORKS

ULTIMATE REPAIR Recovery Liquid Layer is powered by patented AHA and Omega-9 technology to help recover existing cuticle damage before Wella Professionals lightening or oxidative color services. It helps improve cuticle integrity and prepare the hair for a more supported color or lightening service.

Enhanced with Metal Purifier Technology, it also helps encapsulate metals, making it especially ideal for clients in high-metal water regions or new clients with unknown hair history.

To further support the repair journey, ULTIMATE REPAIR Miracle Hair Rescue can be used after lightening or coloring services to help rebuild the hair’s inner strength with AHA.

AHA is small enough to penetrate deep into the hair fiber, helping rebuild hydrogen bonds within the keratin structure for core strength.

Omega-9 works on the outside of the hair fiber with a bio-identical lipid that helps coat the surface, fill the cuticle, and recreate a protective barrier.

Together, AHA and Omega-9 help support repair from the inside out and outside in.
