One United: Your Secret Weapon
One United is a stylist’s secret weapon. This lightweight, sulfate-free, paraben-free, and vegan leave-in treatment offers 25 benefits focused on manageability, protection, and overall hair health. It preps, protects, and perfects all hair types and textures (even fine hair types) without weighing hair down, making it a must-have for every service.

One United isn’t just a treatment; it’s a multi-tasking miracle worker for any of your clients. “It’s my first step to every look,” shares Redken Artist Lindsey Olson. Powered by Redken’s Cationic Complex (xylose, lactic acid, and coconut oil), One United delivers serious results. It’s an exceptional cutting and detangling lotion that smoothes the hair shaft and allows for effortless comb-through and precision cutting.
Use it alone for a quick refresh and detangling boost between clients, layer it with other treatments to amplify their effectiveness, or cocktail it with styling products for enhanced manageability and a flawless finish—the possibilities are endless!
Pro Tip: Remember, your lightest product goes on first when layering. This means that One United should usually be applied first, creating the ideal foundation for any styling service. It’s especially valuable during cutting services, where ease of combing and sectioning is paramount for achieving a precise and polished look.
Quick Blowout: Blowouts Just Got Faster
Want to give your clients the perfect blowout in record time while boosting your service ticket? Redken’s Quick Blowout is a game-changer for cutting down drying time while adding incredible shine and safeguarding hair from heat styling damage. The goal is to "make every blowout quick and easy," explains #ItTakesAPro Team Artist and Redken Ambassador Marc Mendez.
