Fixing lotion is the second step of the lash & brow lift treatment that brings the pH of the lash or brow back to neutral so the cuticles will close and "fix" the hair permanently into its new shape. Many fixing lotions use harsh ingredients such as Sodium Bromate — a substance several countries have banned from using in cosmetic products. Ruthie Belle's radically gentle fixing lotion contains no sodium bromate and works like a hair conditioner after shampooing — to close cuticles and leave lashes and brows healthy and strong!
