MATRIX Pro Backbar smoothing leave-in porosity-equalising spray Insta Cure, 500 ml

Insta Cure porosity spray prepares the mid-lengths and ends for toning when the surface is uneven across different areas. The lightweight formula evens porosity, eases detangling and helps balance pH. It is a practical preparation step between assessing hair condition and applying the chosen toner.

Panthenol, or provitamin B5, and glycerin provide moisturising care, while wheat protein helps condition the surface. The leave-in formula helps smooth the cuticle and reduce frizz, providing lightweight conditioning before toning.

Uneven porosity can make toning preparation difficult, particularly through the lengths and ends. The leave-in spray helps smooth the surface, detangle strands and prepare porous areas for the next colouring stage.

MATRIX Insta Cure is a leave-in porosity-equalising spray for preparing hair for toning and easier combing.

The spray provides professional preparation before toning and care for porous hair. It helps balance pH and smooth damaged cuticles, making work with the mid-lengths and ends easier.

Leave-in porosity-equalising spray: key benefits

• Helps equalise porosity before colouring.
• Eases detangling and combing.
• Lightweight formula for leave-in care.
• Panthenol and wheat protein support the conditioning formula.

How to use

Spray onto clean, damp hair and comb through for even distribution. Do not rinse. To equalise porosity, apply to porous areas before colouring or toning.

Practical application guidance

• Identify the most porous areas first, particularly previously lightened mid-lengths and ends. Spray onto clean, damp hair and comb thoroughly to distribute evenly across the chosen areas.
• Do not rinse. If toning next, adjust moisture levels to the chosen colour's instructions; for example, Super Sync requires hair that is at least 80% dry.
• Before toning, concentrate application on porous mid-lengths and ends, then comb through for even distribution. Do not rinse.
• Unlike a rinse-out mask, this spray provides preparation and leave-in conditioning.

Key ingredients and their roles

• Panthenol, or provitamin B5, supports the moisturising and conditioning formula.
• Hydrolysed wheat protein helps condition the hair surface.
• Glycerin is a moisture-binding ingredient in the lightweight leave-in base.

Product story

Insta Cure focuses on hair preparation before toning. Porosity can vary across areas, so professionals must consider not just colour but also the surface condition. This lightweight leave-in spray helps equalise porosity and makes preparation for the next service easier. Spray into damp hair and comb through for a straightforward workflow.

The conditioning formula contains panthenol and wheat protein, and also eases detangling, balances pH and reduces frizz. It remains in the hair as part of the preparation stage. Insta Cure belongs before colour application: assess condition carefully, equalise porous areas and prepare hair for more precise toning.
