What was the inspiration behind ProRituals, and how did the brand get its name?
Twenty-three years ago at Christmas time, budding entrepreneurs Simon and Jason Brandler--blood brothers and Sassoon soul mates--were walking through London’s Piccadilly Circus when the song “Jingle Bells” began wafting through the air. Somehow, the song struck a chord and the brothers christened the newly formulated, pro-only hair brand “Jingles.” Today, thirteen years after Robanda purchased Jingles and added a permanent single concept hair color line, the brand has been completely revamped and relaunched as “ProRituals by Jingles”.

ProRituals Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil
Containing 100 percent natural botanical oils and silicone free, Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil is a safe way to moisturize hair and promote shine. And (professionals) can use it as a profit-boosting item on their menus. Check out these three ways to use ProRituals Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil.
Use #1: Chemical Services - Adding an extra level of moisture to your hair, as any chemical service takes a toll on it during processing.
Recipe: Add 5 grams /1 teaspoon to any color or bleach mixture.
Outcome: Adding Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil to your color or bleach replaces the fatty acids that are depleted from hair during the chemical service, leaving hair moisturized and shinier than you ever thought possible after a color or bleach service! And don’t worry--adding oil won’t slow down processing time.
*Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil can also be used as a barrier to protect the hairline from staining, and it can be added to your color formula if the client has sensitivity to hair color.
Use #2: Hot Oil Treatment - A great way to tame your textured hair and treat yourself in the process.
Recipe: Mix equal parts Hair and Scalp Therapy Oil and ProRituals Hydrate Intense Moisture Treatment
Process: Microwave the mixture for approximately 5 seconds or heat in a plastic bag in a hot pool of water. Then apply to clean, damp hair. Work it through the hair with your fingers or a wide toothed comb, and leave on for 5 to 15 minutes. Rinse with a little shampoo to remove the botanical oils.
Use #3: Humidity Shield
Recipe: Mix hair and Scalp Therapy Oil with ProRituals Dream Cream Leave-in Styling Conditioner. Apply to dry or damp hair.
