Product Recommendation using the Wet Stretch Test

The wet stretch test is simple, quick, and easy to perform. It is a great way to determine the proper MONAT treatment system for your customer’s hair to achieve and maintain healthier hair.

STEP 1:
Separate about 10 strands of hair and spray with water.
For best results, make sure the hair is well saturated.
STEP 2:
Hold hair firmly between both hands.
STEP 3:
Gently but firmly pull hair away from your head. Ensure you
pull with enough tension to assess if the hair strands stretch.
STEP 4:
Observe how the hair stretches and returns.

Analyzing the results:

· Hair which stretches to 30% of its length and then returns is healthy.
Recommendation:  Balance System for normal to thick hair, Volume System for fine or thin hair to maintain its health, and protect from UV rays and environmental pollutants.

· Hair which stretches but doesn’t return to its previous length is weak in protein.
Recommendation:  Volume System. 
The Volume System contains Hydrolyzed wheat protein which helps to rebuild strength, add fullness, flexibility and reduce the risk of breakage.

· Hair which doesn’t stretch is low in moisture.
Recommendation:  Balance System.
The Balance System helps to equalize moisture and oils, boost hydration to the cuticle and provide healthy equilibrium.

· Hair that stretches and breaks is low in protein and moisture.
Recommendation:  Balance System and Volume System. 
Rotate between the two systems regularly to build both moisture and strength, and  bring hair back to optimal health and vitality.
