Our Cell Therapy Systems are the perfect way to experience the amazing benefits of Ovation products. These three-step systems provide a Shampoo, Cell Therapy and a Conditioner that work synergistically to maximize performance and cost-savings.
The Cell Therapy formula is the centerpiece of each system. The difference between the combination resides in the moisture levels in the Shampoo & Conditioner which complete the system. We recommend choosing your complementary products to create your own system based on your hair type and/or hair care concern. Individuals with dry, damaged hair we recommend our Moisture System. For those with baby fine or limp hair, we recommend our Volume System which provides minimal mositure. A balancing combination of volume shampoo and moisture conditioner for most hair types, including fine hair types with dry ends. Our Color Protection System is perfect for color-treated hair, formulated with Quinoa, rice proteins, amino acids and nutrients which provide color protecting properties.

How long do Ovation products take to work?
Our product formulations are hair maximizers, and most customers notice that their hair appears stronger and thicker after a few uses; however, typical results are apparent after 4-6 weeks. Results can vary for each client.
I only wash my hair a few times a month. Will Cell Therapy Hair Treatment work for me?
Yes. When washing hair, use the Routine Therapy Treatment method as directed on the bottle. Between shampoos, apply Cell Therapy Hair Treatment to moist hair. Massage the product into the scalp using your fingertips. Leave in for as long as two hours, then rinse. Many clients do not want to rinse their hair because of the styling that they receive every 1-2 weeks, so they leave Cell Therapy massaged into their roots like a lotion and wait for the next shampoo to rinse. Do not exceed three Cell Therapy Hair Treatment applications between shampoos. Overuse of Cell Therapy Hair Treatment may result in stiff or weighed down hair, and possible breakage.
If I wear extensions or relax my hair, can I still use Cell Therapy Hair Treatment?
Yes. The ingredients in Ovation products are all naturally derived, so they do not interfere with any chemical processing. Real extension hair may absorb excessive protein and do not contain oils that can cause extensions to slip, so it is important to concentrate application to the scalp. Refer to stylist care recommendations for additional information.
Men:
Are the shampoo and Cell Therapy in your Men's Max Pack different from the other Ovation products?
Why doesn't the Men's Max Pack include the Conditioner?
Can I apply the Hair Gel to dry hair?
Conditioners:
Will the Moisture Conditioner weigh my hair down?
No. We do not use oils or waxes that can weigh down your hair.
Why do I need to use Moisture Conditioner?
Our Moisture Conditioner adds moisture and softens your hair, as well as increases shine, prevents breakage, and maximizes hair length. Using the Moisturizing Conditioner enhances the effectiveness of all other Ovation products by working synergistically to balance proteins and maintain nourished, moisturized hair.
Will Ovation's Volume Conditioner weigh my hair down?
No, ingredients are added for volume. We recommend the Volume Conditioner for fine hair.
Mask:
How often should I use the Intensive Repair Hair Mask?
Should I replace my crème rinse/conditioner with the hair mask?
Shampoo:
Can I use Ovation Hair Shampoos every day?
Yes. Our Shampoos offer a gentle cleanse perfect for everyday use. We recommend using Ovation Clarifying Shampoo 1x per week – 1x per month depending upon hair needs.
Do Ovation Hair Shampoos contain sulfates?
The Volume and Moisture Shampoos are sulfate- free. Our Clarifying and Lux Shampoos formulas include Sodium Laureth Sulfate, a gentle, foaming surfactant that is derived from natural coconut extract. It is gentle on hair, and will not strip away highlights, unlike other products containing harsher sulfates.
