Oribe introduces Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment, inspired by luxury skincare, with treatment-grade ingredients formulated to give hair immaculate, glass-like sheen.
Glass hair is more than just a fleeting beauty trend. Shiny, reflective strands have become non-negotiable “musts” for clients and stylists who want to make them happy. Whether the hair type is fine and straight, medium, thick, coarse or curly, a super sleek finish completes any look.
Oribe’s response to the desire for truly dazzling hair is the innovative Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment, a deeply hydrating treatment that instantly illuminates hair, leaving it soft and glossy. In under one minute, the weightless conditioning essence smooths the cuticle using Glass Hair Technology, creating the optimal surface for a mirror-like finish on even lackluster locks.
The formula uses treatment-quality ingredients to impart hydration and light-reflecting shine to each strand. A plant-based hydration complex creates a moisture-retaining barrier to ensure nonstop hydration without weighing hair down, while a softening polymer blend sleekens and improves hair’s overall health and manageability.

Oribe’s new Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment turns up shine in just one minute.
Oribe Global Artist Adam Livermore understands the importance of a glossy finish, and now he can turn to a brand-new product to create these looks.
Here, Livermore reveals all the details of this shine-boosting formula and discusses how stylists can guide their clients to achieving mega-watt hair.
See Mirror Rinse Glass Treatment in action.
This is a rinse-out treatment that’s great for all hair types and is perfect for anyone who wants reflective shine. It’s important to know that the formula is truly weightless so it’s even effective for fine-to-medium hair. I tell my clients it is a fast and easy glossing treatment that also detangles hair and smooths frizz. They’ll see results in just one minute that can last up to 15 washes!
Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment can be used at the salon or at home. I advise clients to use it after shampooing by squeezing out excess water, then applying it from mid-lengths to ends in place of their regular conditioner. For thicker or drier hair, they can use it after their conditioner. You can apply the product directly to hair using the tip applicator. Leave it on for up to one minute and then rinse thoroughly. It's important to apply it on wet hair for best results. Recommended use is once a week, but clients with very dry or damaged hair can benefit from using it up to twice a week for additional hydration and shine.

Oribe Global Artist Adam Livermore says the new Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment softens, detangles and makes hair shine like glass.
The product is incredibly lightweight and sheer, so clients do not feel any heaviness on their hair. It leaves hair feeling soft and natural.
Yes, it does control frizz! The Softening Polymer Blend in the formula smooths the cuticle, which helps to reduce frizz and enhance the hair’s manageability.
Mirror Rinse is effective whether you air dry the hair or use heat styling. It provides excellent results in both cases, which makes it really versatile for different styling preferences.
Absolutely! The treatment contains the Oribe Signature Complex, which protects hair from oxidative stress and helps preserve color.

Straight or curly—the formula works on every hair type.
Mirror Rinse was developed for at-home use, but some of our salons do build it into their cut, color, or treatments as an added level of service, and then send the bottle home with their clients to maintain the results. I think it’s a great way to introduce clients to the product and show them how to use it!
Yes. As many customers know, Oribe is committed to creating high-performance products while keeping sustainability top of mind. The Mirror Rinse formula was crafted with a simplified ingredient list to minimize environmental impact without compromising on performance. Additionally, the packaging is made with 100% PCR PET and is fully recyclable, including the bottle, applicator, and folding carton. So, this product not only delivers stunning results but also aligns with Oribe’s commitment to sustainability, allowing clients to shine their brightest while making more eco-conscious choices.
Are your clients shining their brightest? Amplify the wattage with Oribe’s innovative new Mirror Rinse Glass Hair Treatment.
