Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Shampoo is a gentle daily cleanser that leaves hair fresh and light.
This colour-safe shampoo washes away oil, sweat, and product build-up without making hair feel stripped or squeaky. The clear gel lathers into soft, creamy foam and rinses clean, leaving a light, crisp, slightly tropical scent that doesn’t overpower.
Hair feels smooth to the touch, easier to brush, and ready to style. It’s ideal for normal to oily hair, or anyone who washes frequently and wants their scalp to feel truly clean.
Use it after sport, on busy mornings, or whenever hair feels heavy. You’re left with hair that feels refreshed, bouncy, and comfortable against your scalp, not weighed down or coated.
How To Use Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Shampoo
- Wet hair thoroughly with warm water.
- Apply a small amount of shampoo to your palms.
- Massage gently into scalp and hair, working into a lather.
- Rinse well until water runs clear.
- Repeat if hair has heavy oil or product build-up.
- Follow with your preferred conditioner if desired.
