Kenneth’s Classic Favorites

Smoothing Gel

Designer Smoothing Gel

A botanical-rich leave-in conditioner and softening balm, Smoothing Gel tames frizz and coaxes curls into smooth, shiny submission. It’s perfect for blowouts that need sleek control or wash-and-go styles that crave moisture and polish.

Pro tip: A little goes a long way. Apply to towel-dried hair, concentrating on mid-shafts to ends. For second-day hair, scrunch a small amount into ends to revive your style.

Sea Spray

Beachy texture in a bottle. Sea Spray gives hair that breezy, windswept body while nourishing strands with kelp extract. It adds volume to fine hair and helps define natural wave patterns without crunch or weight.

Pro tip: Mist evenly on towel-dried hair for instant texture, or use on dry hair to refresh waves and add lift to second-day styles.

Lighten Up

Lighten Up

Lighten Up is your new go-to for silky, weightless conditioning and brilliant shine. Packed with silk proteins, botanical extracts, and amino acids, it strengthens and detangles while prepping hair for heat styling.

Pro tip: Apply after shampooing, focusing on mid-shafts to ends. Fine hair? Use sparingly to keep volume intact while still reaping its shine-boosting benefits.

Out There

This brushable hairspray delivers extreme hold without the telltale crunch or stickiness. It gives structure where you need it, while leaving hair touchable and free-flowing.

Pro tip: Spray 10–12 inches from hair in short bursts for soft hold, or closer to targeted areas for added support.

These classics are returning to all Kenneth’s salons this week and will be available online soon. And the excitement does not stop here. Keep an eye out for two more fan favorites, Give Me Brilliance and Formation Foam, coming your way soon. Stay tuned!

Bring these legendary products back into your routine, or discover them for the first time and make them your new signature favorites. Either way, it’s the perfect time to shop.

What Our Customers Are Saying...
Karen Beckwith
Alexa is great! I came in with some hair problems and she took care of it. I put my trust in her, and she didn't let me down.
Samantha Straw
Amazing experience. I walked in and it was so clean and cute and the front desk ladies were so sweet and welcoming. I came in with a terribly uneven cut I did at home and Mikayla did an amazing job and fixing it and giving me exactly what I was looking for. 10/10 recommend.
Susan
Had a fantastic experience at the Reynoldsburg location. Shannon was so sweet and kind and knew exactly what I needed to cover my grey. She made it look so natural I felt like I dropped a few years in age rather than just trying to hide it! I highly recommend Shannon and will certainly be booking with her when I return!
Judy Boyd
I am new to Kennith’s, just 2 visits, but I will be a longtime customer. My stylist was Niya, and she listened as I told her how I had never received the haircut I requested, whether because I didn’t describe it properly or they didn’t listen. I then described the haircut style I wanted and she asked questions when needed. When she was finished, she turned me to the mirror and silently waited. I couldn’t believe it, it was the perfect cut! I’ve been back again for a trim, my hair grows fast, and once again left completely satisfied and happy. I have found my forever stylist!
