why hair needs a shield

Damage happens every day from UV rays, mechanical styling, and environmental aggressors — weakening, dulling, and causing frizz on all hair types.

how the shield works

Protect hair before daily damage begins. Our biology-first approach to haircare is inspired by nature’s ability to thrive in the harshest environments — engineered into 3-day conditioning protection, with no need to reapply.

The mask and conditioner each serve a unique purpose. The K18 mask reverses damage in just 4 minutes, while the K18 conditioner protects hair from daily damage for up to 3 days*. For best results, use the mask first, wait 4 minutes, then apply the conditioner for extra softness and detangling on the days between mask treatments.
