Luxury Atomic Blowdry with Peptide Protection (Thick/Long Hair)

What the Treatment Involves

The service combines a peptide repair protocol with full styling, so you leave with both healthier hair and a finished look.

• A thorough cleanse to prepare the hair and remove build-up
• Application of a peptide and amino-acid rich treatment to rebuild internal bonds and strengthen the fibre
• Careful rinsing and detangling, especially important for thick or long lengths
• A leave-in peptide mask or cream for lasting strength, frizz control and heat protection
• A luxury blow-dry finish, where warm air helps activate the treatment while the hair is shaped and polished

Because thick and long hair needs more product and finer sectioning to saturate every strand evenly, this appointment allows extra time to get a smooth, even result throughout.

What to Expect Afterwards

Immediately after your appointment, hair typically feels smoother, denser and more resilient, with noticeably reduced frizz and added shine. The finish can be styled sleek and glossy or softly voluminous, depending on what you prefer, so it's worth mentioning your preferred look when you book.

One session gives a visible lift in condition and finish, but peptide repair is cumulative. Clients with more significant damage, from bleach, colour, or repeated heat styling, generally see the best long-term results from repeat treatments alongside good home care.

Who It Suits

This treatment is aimed at clients with thick or long hair looking for extra strength, manageability and shine, including coloured or chemically treated hair. It's best suited to those willing to ease off harsh chemical processing and excessive heat styling afterwards, since ongoing damage can undo the internal repair fairly quickly.

If your hair is severely compromised, your stylist may also suggest a supportive cut to remove the most damaged ends alongside the treatment for the best overall result.

Aftercare and Maintenance

Simple home care habits help the treatment last and keep results looking their best.

• Use gentle, sulfate-free shampoos where possible
• Incorporate regular hydrating masks or conditioners
• Use a peptide-rich leave-in and consistent heat protection when styling at home
• Avoid overwashing and unprotected high-heat styling between visits

The Timba team, including senior stylists and colour specialists, can talk through the right aftercare routine for your specific hair type during your Cardiff appointment.
