L’ORÉAL METAL DETOX SHAMPOO

PRIMARY USES

1. Removes Metal Particles That Damage Hair and Alter Color

• What it does: This professional purifying shampoo is specifically formulated to detoxify the hair by eliminating metal particles (such as copper, iron, and nickel) that accumulate inside the hair fiber from water exposure, pollution, and repeated washing . Unlike standard clarifying shampoos that only clean the surface, this formula works deep within the hair structure to neutralize these damaging metals.

• How it helps your hair: For the person who struggles with unexplained hair damage, color fading, or brassiness despite using quality products, this provides a deep detox that removes hidden aggressors. For anyone who lives in an area with hard water, well water, or old pipes, this means a shampoo that targets the root cause of metal-induced damage.

2. Patented Glycamine Technology to Neutralize Metal from Within

• What it does: The formula utilizes a patented Glycamine technology, which actively neutralizes metal inside the hair fiber rather than just rinsing it off the surface . This innovative molecule penetrates the cortex and captures metal particles, rendering them harmless and preventing them from causing oxidative damage during chemical services like bleaching or coloring.

• How it helps your hair: For the person whose hair breaks or discolors unpredictably during salon treatments, this provides a preparation step that eliminates the hidden catalyst for chemical reactions. For anyone who has experienced “hot roots” or unexpected color results, this means a shampoo that helps treatments perform as expected.

3. Reduces Breakage by Up to 87%

• What it does: By neutralizing damaging metals, this shampoo significantly reduces the risk of hair breakage, with clinical testing showing up to 87% less breakage when used as part of the Metal Detox system . The formula strengthens the hair fiber from within, making it more resilient to mechanical and chemical stress.

For anyone undergoing chemical services like bleaching or perming, this means a shampoo that dramatically reduces the risk of catastrophic breakage.

4. Optimizes Color Results and Reduces Brassiness

• What it does: Metal particles in the hair are one of the primary causes of unwanted color reactions, including brassiness, uneven tone, and rapid fading. By removing these metals, this shampoo helps color services perform more predictably, resulting in truer, more vibrant, and longer-lasting color results .

• How it helps your hair: For the person who finds their blonde turns brassy or their brown looks muddy within weeks of coloring, this provides a solution that addresses the underlying cause. For anyone who wants their salon color to look fresh and true for longer, this means a preparation step that maximizes your color investment.

5. Gentle Enough for Use Before and Between Chemical Services

• How it helps your hair: For the person who needs to prep for an upcoming color or lightening appointment, this provides a safe, effective way to create an ideal canvas for chemical services. For anyone with a sensitive scalp who finds other detox shampoos too harsh, this means a gentle formula that cleans deeply without discomfort.

6. Part of the Complete Metal Detox System

SECONDARY USES

1. Pre-Color Service Preparation: Use for 2-3 weeks before a color, bleach, or lightening appointment to remove metal buildup that can cause unpredictable color results, hot roots, and excessive damage. For the person who wants their salon service to deliver perfect results, this provides essential preparation that protects your investment and your hair.

3. Hard Water Remedy: Use regularly if you live in an area with hard water, well water, or old plumbing, as these conditions introduce high levels of metals into your hair.
