Our Ligthening System

Many traditional powder lighteners release airborne particles during mixing, creating a messy and uncomfortable salon environment. Our dust-free technology helps minimize airborne dispersion during preparation for a cleaner, more refined and more comfortable professional application experience.

Lightening removes both natural pigment and essential moisture from the hair fibre, often leaving the hair feeling stressed after processing. Our conditioning complex helps support lubrication and moisture retention throughout the service to improve manageability, softness and cosmetic feel.

Clients care about how their hair feels after a lightening service, not just how light it gets. LINEAGE is designed to deliver powerful lift while helping the hair feel softer, smoother and healthier.

Traditional lighteners can swell unevenly during processing, causing inconsistent lift and patchy blonding results. LINEAGE is formulated with a stabilized creamy oxidation system that helps maintain more even saturation and controlled oxygen release throughout the lightening process for cleaner, more predictable lift.

High pH lightening systems can leave the cuticle excessively raised, resulting in roughness, dryness and a porous feel after rinsing. LINEAGE combines conditioning agents and an acidic support system designed to help smooth the cuticle surface for hair that feels softer, shinier and more conditioned after the service.

Unstable developer systems can create inconsistent oxidation rates that affect lift, tone and processing reliability. The LINEAGE Cream Developer uses a stabilized peroxide system engineered to deliver controlled oxidation performance for more predictable cosmetic results and refined tonal clarity.

PlexProtect™ Bond Support Technology

During lightening, persulfates and oxidation can weaken structural bonds within the hair fibre, increasing fragility and loss of elasticity. PlexProtect™ Technology is designed to help reinforce and support the hair structure during processing by helping maintain the integrity of the fibre while lightening takes place.
