FAQ — SH-RD Protein Cream

Q: What is this product used for?
A: The Protein Cream is a leave-in, protein-rich hair treatment and styling cream designed to repair, strengthen, and revitalize damaged or stressed hair — while adding shine, softness, and protection against heat, UV, or chlorine. 

Q: What hair types benefit most from using it?
A: It’s formulated for all hair types — from fine to coarse, straight, wavy, curly or chemically treated. However, hair that’s dry, brittle, heat-styled, color-treated or chemically processed tends to see the most noticeable improvement. 

Q: What results can stylists or clients expect after using it?
A: With regular use, hair becomes stronger, smoother, shinier, more manageable, and less prone to breakage or split ends. It also improves softness, elasticity, and overall health of hair fiber, while sealing the cuticle and locking in moisture.

Q: What are the key ingredients / technology — and why do they matter?
A:

• The core is a “Silk Protein Complex” — combining silk amino acids (for nourishment & hydration) and hydrolyzed silk protein (to help repair and strengthen hair shaft). This helps rebuild hair structure damaged by chemical treatments, heat or environmental stress. 

• It also contains rosemary extract — which can stimulate scalp circulation and support scalp/hair health. 

• Pro-vitamin B5 (Panthenol) — improves elasticity and moisture retention in hair strands. 

Q: How should the Protein Cream be applied for best results?
A: After shampooing and conditioning (if using), towel-dry hair. Then apply a small amount to palms, rub together, and distribute evenly through hair — typically from mid-lengths to ends. Do not rinse; leave in and style as usual. Works great before blow-drying or using heat tools for added protection.

Q: Is this product safe for color-treated or chemically processed hair?
A: Yes — SH-RD specifically indicates the Protein Cream is safe for color-treated, chemically processed, or heat-styled hair. Its protective and restorative properties help maintain hair integrity after chemical services. 

Q: Does it offer protection beyond repair (e.g. heat / UV / chlorine)?
A: Yes — the formula provides protection from UV, heat styling tools, and chlorine (useful for clients who swim or expose hair to sun/humidity), making it a multifunctional treatment + protective cream.
