What is Liss Komplex Pro Kit?

Liss Komplex Pro Kit by Edelstein is the salon kit for the complete Liss Komplex smoothing service: Liss Komplex Alkaline Shampoo pH 8.2, Liss Komplex Treatment and Liss Komplex Restoring Mask, the three steps that turn frizzy, unruly hair into smooth, silky and shiny hair. The treatment with glyoxylic acid, keratin, collagen and silk is calibrated on fine, medium or thick hair, natural, coloured or bleached, and fixed with the flat iron, between an alkaline preparation at pH 8.2 and an acidic closing mask at pH 3.5. One kit covers around 10 smoothing services.

Specifications

What's in the kit

Who Liss Komplex Pro Kit is for

• Salons that offer the complete Liss Komplex smoothing service with one kit, from the preparation to the closing step.
• Frizzy, unruly and hard-to-manage hair that needs a smooth, disciplined and shiny look.
• Coloured, bleached or highlighted hair, with the shorter processing times and lower flat-iron temperatures of the protocol.

For the version with the home care included, or for the preparation and closing steps only, see the comparison below.

Key ingredients

• Glyoxylic Acid (treatment): the smoothing active that disciplines the fibre and fixes the smooth shape with the heat of the flat iron.
• Hydrolyzed Keratin and Hydrolyzed Silk (all three products): proteins for a stronger, softer feel and a silky shine at every step; the treatment adds Hydrolyzed Collagen and Sodium Hyaluronate for suppleness.
• Alkaline pH 8.2 (shampoo) and acidic pH 3.5 (mask): Sodium Hydroxide lifts the cuticle before the treatment; Citric Acid brings the hair back to an acidic pH at the end, for a smoother surface and more shine.

Results

After the service the hair is visibly smoother, silkier and more disciplined, with a mirror-like shine and far less visible frizz. It falls fluidly, brushes easily and dries faster, so daily styling takes less time.

How to use Liss Komplex Pro Kit

1. Preparation: apply Liss Komplex Alkaline Shampoo pH 8.2 to wet hair and leave on for 5-10 minutes, so the alkaline solution acts on the cuticle; distribute it with the Flexion (L) brush and begin detangling gently, without mechanical stress. Rinse thoroughly and dry with medium heat, with slight tension at the roots.
2. Application: divide the hair into thin sections (about 0.5 cm) and apply Liss Komplex Treatment evenly on each strand with a brush.
3. Processing time by hair type:
   • Fine to medium hair: 30 min (natural), 25 min (coloured), 10-15 min (bleached/highlighted)
   • Thick hair: 40 min (natural), 30 min (coloured), 20 min (bleached/highlighted)
4. Thermal fixing: blow-dry with medium heat, then flat-iron each strand with 6 to 9 passes at the calibrated temperature:
   • Fine to medium hair: 230 °C (natural), 200 °C (coloured), 180 °C (bleached/highlighted)
   • Thick hair: 230 °C (natural), 220 °C (coloured), 180-200 °C (bleached/highlighted)
5. Closing step: distribute Liss Komplex Restoring Mask (pH 3.5) evenly on damp, towel-dried hair with the Flexion (L) brush or a wide-toothed comb. Leave on for 5-10 minutes; for more intensive care on heavily damaged hair, extend to 10 minutes.
6. Rinsing: rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and proceed with the final styling.
