Let’s Talk About Gloss
(Or why your hair always looks its best when you leave Equo)
Gloss is one of those treatments that flies under the radar—until you’ve had one, and then you can’t stop thinking about it. It’s the thing that gives your hair that lit-from-within glow. The thing that makes color feel soft and seamless. The thing that makes your hair look like you... but better.
So what exactly is a gloss?
In simple terms: it’s a sheer, tone-enhancing treatment that adds shine, smooths frizz, seals the cuticle, and leaves hair feeling like silk. No harsh lines, no long-term commitment, and no damage. It’s more nourishing than traditional color, and it fades out gradually—making it perfect for both color maintenance and overall hair health.
At Equo, we often use gloss as the finishing step after a color service. Once your highlights or lowlights are where we want them, gloss allows us to fine-tune the tone—bringing warmth back into a bright blonde, canceling brass in a brunette, or softening the edges of a bold copper. It’s the polish that makes everything look intentional.
But here’s the part most people don’t realize: gloss isn’t just for people who color their hair. If your hair has been looking a little dull, dry, or frizzy (hello, San Diego sun and ocean), a standalone gloss treatment can bring it back to life in under an hour. It’s quick, it’s hydrating, and it gives your hair that effortless, healthy look you didn’t know you were missing.
So if you’ve ever left Equo wondering why your hair suddenly looks shinier, softer, and just better—gloss is probably why.
Subtle, powerful, and always worth it.
