How to use

Use whenever your hair feels dull and damaged. Or after you've been on holiday and subjected it to sun, sea and chlorine. 

1. Wash hair first

2. Apply plex treatment to wet hair

3. Leave on for at least 30 minutes (you can leave it on overnight). The longer it's left, the more time it has to repair your hair

4. Rinse off

5. Complete steps 1-5 of Merwave routine as normal

Restoring damaged hair takes time. There's no overnight miracle product. So you may need a few treatments before you see results.

Restore damaged hair from the inside out

How does your hair become damaged?

95% of our hair is made up of protein bond structures. These hold our hair shafts together, giving it its strength and stability. They keep the hair in the natural shape it was formed.

During heat styling, colouring and day to day life, these bond structures are broken down before being hardened into a new shape. This is referred to as ‘hair damage’.

This leads to spongy, weak hair strands and split ends that eventually break off. The hair is overly dry, rough and tangles easily. It loses its shine and looks dull.

The only effective long-term solution is to restore the internal structure of your hair.

How does this plex treatment work?

Using two small molecule ingredients (Hydroxypropylgluconamide and Hydroxypropylammonium Gluconate) Merwave’s Repair & Restore Plex Treatment restores and reconnects these damaged and broken bonds from the inside out.

Both molecules are designed to strengthen your hair from inside the fibre by penetrating deep into the cortex to create new hydrogen and ionic bonds.

This then supports the internal protein structure, providing up to 3X strength compared to untreated hair.

What results can I expect?

As the plex treatment re-builds your hair bonds, it strengthens the hair from within, making it more resistant to breakages and damage.

Damaged hair's more porous than healthy hair. Moisture cannot be retained, causing brittleness and frizz. This plex treatment will repair those damaged cuticles. Your hair will now retain the vital moisture required to stay soft and frizz free.

By restoring the bonds, your hair elasticity will be improved. Your hair will become more manageable and more resilient to styling. It'll be visibly shinier and healthier.

How to use

Use whenever your hair feels dull and damaged. Or after you've been on holiday and subjected it to sun, sea and chlorine.

1. Wash hair first

2. Apply plex treatment to wet hair

3. Leave on for at least 30 minutes (you can leave it on overnight). The longer it's left, the more time it has to repair your hair

4. Rinse off

5. Style as normal using foam and gel.

Restoring damaged hair takes time. There's no overnight miracle product. So you may need a few treatments before you see results.

Merwave...The Best for my hair!

I started on my Merwave wavy journey during covid lockdown (recommended by my curly stylist Emma @ Studio Barnsley)
I've tried other brands...as you do.. but always come back to Merwave.
The Wave cream is ace

Excellent products for the perfect waves

So after 40+ years of straightening and abusing my hair I decided to embrace my waves. I started with supermarket buyable brands because they were “cheap”, but they didn’t give lasting results. Then I tried another well advertised brand (that really wasn’t cheap) but it dried my hair out to the point of it breaking! Turns out even though advertised as for all curl types it really only was for 3b upwards!
So I reset and read up and decided to go for a curly cut to rid myself of damage and learn how to manage my wave patterns.
Thats where I discovered Merwave! The Salon loved it and I did too, they showed me the started pack, how to use all the products in it, and how little you needed to use to get results. I walked out of the appointment with the most amazing hair! And it was 5 days before I needed to wash again, which was spot on because my starter pck had arrived by then. I was so happy that recreating what my hairdresser had done was simple, these products are perfect for home use. Your hair tells you when you need #3 or Plex in the routine! The microfibre towel is just perfect too! I can’t wait for the hair mask to be back in stock so I can add that in to treat my hair!
You can tell this is a lightweight well thought through brand, that works on waves and curls, it has light and refreshing not overpowering fragrance. It’s designed so you don’t need a lot of product at each step, so it will last a while. Each product I tried before this range caused scalp itching, this has caused no irritation at all.
I 100% recommend Merwave x
