OSIS+ is the styling arm of Schwarzkopf Professional — a creative playground for hairstylists who want to push texture, structure, and finish to the limit. Developed in close collaboration with session stylists and editorial artists, OSIS+ products are engineered to deliver backstage-quality results in the salon chair and at home.
The range is organized into four creative territories: HOLD (control and structure), VOLUME (lift and body), FINISH (shine and polish), and SMOOTH (frizz control and sleekness). This clarity makes it easy to build multi-product looks — layering a volumizing mousse with a texture paste and finishing spray for a complete editorial result.
At ProHair.ca, we carry the complete OSIS+ creative styling range, from the iconic Dust It volumizing powder to Elastic texture spray and Grip extreme wax. These are the tools that professional stylists reach for on shoot days and salon days alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is OSIS+ a Schwarzkopf brand?
Yes — OSIS+ is the creative styling division of Schwarzkopf Professional. It sits alongside IGORA color and Bonacure care as one of Schwarzkopf's flagship professional lines, distributed through professional salons and authorized retailers like ProHair.ca.
What is Dust It and how do I use it?
Dust It is a volumizing powder applied directly to dry hair at the roots. Shake a small amount onto your fingertips or directly onto the scalp, work it in, and style as normal. It adds incredible volume and texture without weighing hair down or leaving visible residue. A little goes a long way.
Is OSIS+ suitable for everyday use?
Yes. Products like Elastic, Sparkler, and Flatliner are designed for daily styling. The heavier hold products (Rock Hard, Grip wax) are better reserved for special occasions or editorial work.
Can I use OSIS+ products on color-treated hair?
All OSIS+ styling products are color-safe and will not fade or alter color. The range focuses on styling rather than chemical treatment, making them compatible with any color service.
How does OSIS+ compare to other styling brands like Kenra or Rusk?
OSIS+ leans toward editorial, fashion-forward styling with a strong emphasis on texture and creative definition. Kenra and Rusk tend toward classic hold and shine. If you want backstage-style results and creative texture, OSIS+ is the better fit.
