  deck: "A gloss is not a colour. It's the step that makes colour look like colour — a clear or tinted semi-permanent treatment that seals the cuticle, adds weeks to your last appointment, and turns ordinary hair into something that actually catches the light.",
  intro: "The single most misunderstood thing in colour: a gloss and a glaze are nearly the same service with a different pH. A gloss is acidic — it sits on the cuticle, deposits a little pigment or none at all, and lasts four to six weeks. A glaze is often used as a synonym, though some colourists use 'glaze' for the in-salon version and 'gloss' for the at-home bottle. What both do, reliably: seal the cuticle, amplify shine, deposit a translucent wash of tone, and extend the life of a permanent colour underneath. Below is everything we've published — from clear glosses to the tinted ones that can warm a blonde or knock brass off a brunette.",

    h: "Gloss vs glaze — the actual difference",
    body: "Both are semi-permanent, deposit-only treatments that don't lift the hair. A gloss is formulated at a low pH (around 3.5–4.5), which causes the cuticle to contract and lie flat. That's the shine mechanism. A glaze is a near-synonym, though in-salon glazes are sometimes higher-pH and penetrate the cortex slightly. At home, treat the terms as interchangeable. The key point: neither replaces permanent colour, and neither can lighten.",
