How do you use the STeampod 4.0 + Keratin Alpha Sleek set?
Wash your hair and dry it about 80% with a hairdryer.
Apply the Keratin Alpha Sleek Smooth Transform Hair Treatment (150 ml). Distribute it evenly from root to tip.
Choose the right comb: fine for fine hair (type I-IV), medium for thicker hair (type V), or wide for very thick or afro-textured hair (type VI-VII).
Set the temperature. L'Oréal Professionnel recommends 180°C for fine, coloured or bleached hair, and 200-210°C for thick, natural hair.
Slowly glide the straightener through each section. The steam releases automatically as you go.
Finish with a small amount of Keratin Alpha Sleek Serum (30 ml) for shine and protection.
The steam from the STeampod opens your hair’s outer layer, allowing the treatment formula to absorb better. This makes your hair feel smooth and strong again. The serum seals the hair structure, keeping shine longer. Your hair instantly feels softer and looks sleeker.
Which temperature should you use for fine or sensitive hair?
Use 180°C for fine, sensitive, coloured or bleached hair. This is the lowest setting on the STeampod 4.0 and the safest choice for fragile hair. For thicker or natural hair, 200°C or 210°C works better as the steam penetrates more effectively.
Which comb of the STeampod 4.0 suits my hair?
The set includes three combs for different hair types. The fine comb is for type I to IV, the medium for type V, and the wide comb for type VI and VII. Fine and straight hair is type I-II, wavy or curly hair is type III-V, and afro-textured hair is type VI-VII.
Is the L'Oréal Professionnel Steampod 4.0 + Keratin Alpha Sleek Duo suitable for coloured hair?
Yes. The STeampod is one of the best options for coloured hair because the steam is gentler than dry heat. At 180°C, you style without fading colour or drying hair out. If your hair is severely damaged from bleaching or frequent dyeing, the Absolut Repair Molecular Leave-in Hair Mask complements this routine well.
Who is this set best for?
This set is ideal if you style regularly while caring for your hair. The treatment makes a difference if your hair frizzes easily, feels dry, or is hard to smooth. If you follow the loreal sTeampod instructions and want salon results at home, this duo set is a complete choice. Check out the Hair Tools collection from L'Oréal Professionnel to compare.
