The L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape is a salon-exclusive permanent hair straightening cream powered by a THIO complex and Oil Trio. Unlike standard treatments, this L'Oréal Professionnel hair smoothing cream transforms and straightens even the most resistant, rebellious hair while nourishing the fibre — delivering sleek, frizz-free, salon-quality results with a low-odour formula.
2. How does the THIO complex in the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso straightening cream work on resistant hair?
The THIO complex in the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso straightening cream restructures hair bonds at a deep level, permanently relaxing even the most stubborn curls and waves. Its low-odour innovation makes this Xtenso hair straightening cream a more comfortable experience for both the client and stylist throughout the entire in-salon service.
3. What hair types benefit most from the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream?
The L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream is specifically designed for rebellious, frizzy, wavy, and curly hair — from sensitised to extra-resistant textures. Available in multiple formula strengths, this hair straightening cream allows stylists to personalise every service, ensuring safe, effective, and long-lasting smoothing results suited to each client's unique hair condition.
4. What are the three oils in the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape and what do they do?
The L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape Oil Trio combines sweet almond, cottonseed, and rice oils. Together, these nourishing oils deeply hydrate, strengthen, and protect the hair fibre during the chemical process, setting this L'Oréal hair smoothing cream apart from conventional straightening treatments by delivering smooth, shiny, conditioned hair without compromising structural integrity.
5. How long do results from the L'Oréal Professionnel hair straightening cream last?
Results from the L'Oréal Professionnel hair straightening cream are permanent — the hair retains its smooth, straight texture until new growth appears. With the Xtenso Care post-service range, clients can maintain the benefits of the Xtenso hair straightening cream for months, keeping hair sleek, frizz-free, and manageable between salon visits.
6. Is the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape hair straightening cream suitable for colour-treated hair?
The L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape should be applied to colour-treated hair only after a thorough professional hair assessment. The Oil Trio and cationic actives within this L'Oréal Professionnel hair smoothing cream nourish and protect sensitised strands throughout the process, though a trained stylist must select the appropriate formula strength to minimise potential damage.
7. What results can I expect immediately after the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape treatment?
Immediately after the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream service, hair feels noticeably softer, smoother, and more manageable. Frizz is visibly reduced, shine is enhanced, and even the most resistant curls are transformed into sleek, straight locks — making this Xtenso hair straightening cream a true game changer for unruly hair.
8. How should hair be prepared before the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream is applied?
Before applying the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream, hair must be shampooed with a clarifying shampoo — conditioner skipped — and thoroughly towel-dried. The stylist then sections the hair into four parts and applies this hair straightening cream section by section from the nape, without pulling or stretching the strands.
9. Is the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape an exclusive salon service or available for home use?
The L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso Oleoshape is a professional, in-salon-only hair straightening cream recommended for trained hairstylists only. Correct formula selection, precise application, and proper neutralisation demand expert handling — key reasons this Xtenso hair straightening cream consistently delivers superior, damage-conscious results that no over-the-counter L'Oréal Professionnel hair smoothing cream can replicate.
10. What post-service care should be followed after the L'Oréal Professionnel hair straightening cream treatment?
After the L'Oréal Professionnel hair straightening cream service, maintain results with the Xtenso Care range — sulfate-free shampoo, Pro-Keratin masque, and serum. Avoid washing hair for at least 48 hours post-service. This routine preserves the smoothness delivered by the L'Oréal Professionnel Xtenso smoothing cream and keeps hair healthy, shiny, and frizz-free long-term.
