Frequently Asked Questions
Will glosses darken my hair?
They can, if desired — but they can also be completely sheer and tone-only.
Do glosses damage the hair?
No — they are extremely gentle and add shine + moisture.
Is a gloss better than a toner?
Yes. Glosses last longer, look shinier, and condition the hair.
