It's National Gloss Week: Ready To Get Glossing?

Published date 16 June 2025

Back to article listing

Get ready to elevate your gloss game! For Redken's National Gloss Week, we sat down with Redken Artist Kayleigh Jane on how to achieve the ultimate glossy finish. Follow her step-by-step guide and create hair that shines.

Step 1

Precision Foiling Techniques from a Pro

Kayleigh Jane begins by utilising Redken's Flash Lift Bonder Inside with 20 volume developer (1:1.5 ratio), processing for 50 minutes. This lift creates the perfect canvas for a stunning gloss.

For the overall gloss, she applies Shades EQ 09GR with a processing solution to dry hair for 20 minutes. This choice of gloss adds a beautiful, soft, warm, shimmery blonde.

  

Pro Tip: The "Stitches" (also known as "Weaves") technique employed by Kayleigh Jane involves a combination of regular and skip slices. This creates ribbons of brightness and dimension throughout the hair, using diagonal back and horizontal placements. For a softer face frame, she recommends using micro and regular towards the parting, using a diagonal back placement. This detail adds softness, brightness and personalisation to the look.

Step 2

Soft Finish with Professional Haircare

To complete the gloss service, Kayleigh uses Redken and Conditioner. These products are essential for maintaining glass-like shine and colour vibrancy.

Styling:  Prepping the hair with Redken's Acidic Colour Gloss Leave-In Treatment and a touch of Redken’s NEW Acidic Bonding Concentrate 24/7 Serum before blow-drying with a round brush to create soft movement and bounce.

Finishing Touch

A final application of Redken's NEW adds the perfect finishing touch, smoothing the hair and enhancing shine.

Why This Gloss Works: Acid Colour Gloss Shampoo and Conditioner is a stunning match for your Shades Eq Gloss. The Acidic Shine Complex, paired with the Acidic balanced pH formula of Acidic Colour Gloss, ensures the hair is at the healthiest pH of 4.5-5.5, maintains colour vibrancy and boosts the glass gloss shine.
