Mucota: the celeb overhaul for world-weary hair

Every time I get my hair treated at a salon, I feel like I’m cheating on a lover; I’ve mastered the art of denial (the beach! new color! etc.), at the same time dodging the look of disappointment on my (current) stylist’s face as s/he looks at my dry, damaged strands. Only recently has it been getting better–pleased to report that I’ve been a good girl, hair masks and all–and a most recent discovery at Park Jun’s Beauty Lab, the famed Mucota Reaction Treatment, may actually make an honest gal out of me yet.

As with everything awe-inspiringly high-tech, the treatment comes from Japan, and I’m told is already favorite of Korean celebrities and high rollers due to its exceptional hair-rehabilitating qualities. Something about its highly reparative mix–a cocktail of lamella liquid crystal structure, keratin proteins, hyaluronic acid, and polypeptides–keeps moisture, nourishment, color vitality, and elasticity from seeping out of the hair strand. And, bonus, it’s aftercare at-home range has different products for colored, waved (permed), or all-around damaged hair as well. Whatever it is, the miracle blend instantly rejuvenated my fried, fresh-from-Coron locks… and, shockingly, has locked in the softness for days on end without the weigh down (read: it still feels silky when I wash it, daily attacks by the blow dryer notwithstanding). It’s been two weeks and, for the first time in a long time, I’ve gotten compliments on the new bounce in my strands, which is a big deal if you’ve got fine locks and a full fringe to go with it. A healthy sheen, silky-softness, and color that stays bright for weeks… fidelity was never this easy.

The Mucota 6-Step package treatment costs P2,200 (short hair),  P2,700 (medium-length hair), P3,200 (long hair), and P3,700 (extra-long hair).
