With the Korean invasion hitting Philippine shores, it has been inevitable for Filipinos to dabble into anything Korean – from music, fashion, beauty, and whatnot. As far as beauty is concerned, Filipinos, now more than ever, aspire to pull off how Koreans effortlessly carry distinct hairstyles that showcase curls or fringes, which are equally stylish and edgy, but most importantly healthy and shiny.

The L’Oreal Professionnel Korean City Style hair texture collection highlights the perming technologies of X-Tenso moisturist and Dulcia Advanced to give dull hair a volumized boost. This product duo provides great results through a hybrid technology that smoothens and treats the hair at the same time, thus nourishing every hair fiber without fear of damage.

Dulcia Advanced is the first fortifying long-lasting cold perm with Ionene G technology that targets every hair zone.
- Zone A+B, on surface - It fixes to the fiber of the hair and ensures smoothness and helps detangle hair.
- Zone C, on hair core - Fixed to the cortex, it restructures the hair fiber to give more flexibility and acts as a tutor for the hair: the curls are easily formed and last longer.
