REDAVID, the family-owned professional haircare brand founded in 1990 by Canadian master hairstylist Leonardo Redavid, has introduced Blonde Dual Therapy Treatment. Part temporary leave-in toner, part hair repair system, the daily treatment not only reduces brassy tones but also repairs damage from overprocessing or environmental stressors.

The chemical-free treatment, which offers fast, jaw-dropping results, is as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Shampoo with Redavid Blonde Therapy Shampoo, a gentle daily toner and cleanser with purple pigment that helps eliminate brassiness. Orchid Oil nourishes moisture-deprived hair, improving shine and manageability.
2. Condition with Redavid Blonde Therapy Conditioner, a gentle daily conditioner that nourishes and detangles. Purple pigment eliminates brassiness, while shea butter and orchid oil nourish moisture-starved hair, improving shine and manageability.
3. Apply the two-step Blonde Dual Therapy Treatment to brighten, tone and repair. Finish with heat.
