It is often marketed as the “Step Two” follow-up after the ApHogee Two‑Step Protein Treatment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe product contains a proprietary Pro‑Phytamine complex composed of collagen amino acids, botanical extracts, emollients, vitamins, and humectants to help lock in moisture, soften hair, smooth the cuticle, and protect against humidity effects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts
