Clear Glossing: The Salon Secret to High-Shine Hair

When your clients want healthier-looking, shiny hair, a full colour transformation doesn’t have to be the answer. Sometimes, clients just want their colour but better! And that’s where Quif’s Magi:gloss comes in.

Being a part of the Magi:gloss Demi Permanent Liquid glossing range, the Magi:gloss Clear shade is designed to give hairdressers greater control over their colour result, while enhancing the overall appearance of the hair. It’s perfect for easily softening strong tones to create polished, high-shine finishes. Plus, it’s another service to add to your salon menu! In collaboration with our Quif Educator, Sara Simpson, let’s take a deep dive into why Magi:gloss Clear is a salon essential, and how to use it with your clients…

Magi:gloss is Quif’s Demi Liquid Glossing and Toning colour range, designed to refresh, enhance and refine the tone of the hair. It can be used to refresh faded colour, tone after lightening, add shine and bring your client's locks back to life. It makes it ideal for everything from blonde maintenance to low-maintenance colour refreshes. But, there is one shade in the range that can give hairdressers more control than they thought… Magi:gloss Clear 000.

Think of Magi:gloss Clear 000 as a control tool rather than another shade in the chart. When mixed with another Magi:gloss shade, the Clear dilutes the concentration of pigment, which allows you to soften the intensity and create more delicate results.

This means you can:

It gives you the flexibility to adjust your formula depending on the client's hair and the result you’re looking to achieve.

Magi:gloss Clear isn’t only there to dilute colour; it can also add the most stunning shine. If your clients aren’t in need of a tonal refresh but still want the benefits of a gloss service, Magi:gloss Clear can do exactly that! Add shine, smoothness, and a polished finish to your clients' look without adding additional colour. It’s a win win!

So, how does it work? Magi:gloss coats the hair shaft and smooths the cuticle, helping light reflect more effectively from the hair's surface for an instantly more luminous finish. Containing Quaternium 80, Avocado Oil and Jojoba Seed Oil, this formula helps to lock in moisture and leaves the hair feeling super soft and manageable. Once the cuticle is smoothed, Magi:gloss Clear can also help reduce the appearance of frizz and flyaways, making the hair easier to style and giving the finished result sleek and glossy, which your clients will love!

Blonde clients are desperate for their blonde to look fresh, glossy and super expensive, and luckily, Magi:gloss Clear can help tick all of these boxes. Magi:gloss Clear can be used on blonde hair after lightening to enhance the appearance of the hair, keeping the result soft and luminous. It’s perfect for maintenance services when the blonde is looking a little dull, keeping the midlengths and ends looking refreshed between lightening appointments.

For salons, one of the biggest opportunities with a salon essential such as Magi:gloss Clear is the opportunity to become a standalone service. Not every client needs a full colour appointment, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t an opportunity to refresh the appearance and condition of their hair. It’s the ultimate hack to up your margins!

With Magi:gloss Clear, you can gain the flexibility to do more with your colour formulas while giving clients something they’ll instantly notice… shiny, smooth and expensive-looking hair. Give your clients a natural-looking refresh and glossy boost, and make Magi:gloss a bigger part of your salon colour services. Discover Magi:gloss Clear exclusively at Alan Howard in-store and online.
