Bio Ionic® ReTeXpress Uses Breakthrough Ion Technology & Advanced Application Techniques to Deliver Better Results, Faster
As profitable as permanent retexturizing is, the fact is that the time it takes to achieve straightened perfection can not only wear on a stylist physically and emotionally, but also consume a huge chunk of time that could be used to attend to other clients. Additionally, first-time retex clients are often time one-time retex clients because they have a hard time stomaching the idea of sitting in a salon for what seems like an eternity again to keep their tresses’ silky-straight condition.
Now, Bio Ionic®, the first to harness the power of natural negative ion technology into a permanent retexturizing process, is again revolutionizing this salon process by introducing ReTeXpress™, a breakthrough permanent retexturizing process that delivers silky-straight, ultra-shiny, healthier hair, 50 percent faster than any other professional system currently available.
