What is a repairing shampoo?
A repairing shampoo is formulated to help restore the condition of hair that's been weakened by styling, colouring or external damage. These shampoos contain targeted ingredients such as proteins, vitamins and nourishing oils that work together to support the hair’s strength, smoothness and shine.
Whether your hair has been stressed by heat styling, chemical services or environmental exposure, repair shampoos are designed to help. They're suitable for a variety of hair types including brittle, dry or frizzy hair. With consistent use, these formulas can refresh tired strands and leave hair feeling softer and more manageable.
How does a shampoo for damaged hair work?
Shampoos for damaged hair work by infusing the hair shaft with essential nutrients to strengthen and repair from within. They gently cleanse while supporting the hair’s structure, helping to reduce breakage without stripping away natural oils.
For best results, pair your repair shampoo with a nourishing product like a Conditioner For Hair Extensions or Leave-In Conditioner. These combinations help protect and soften the hair between washes while enhancing long-term results.
What should I look for in a hair repair shampoo?
Look for shampoos that include restorative ingredients like keratin, provitamin B5 and natural oils such as argan or jojoba. These ingredients help strengthen and smooth the hair cuticle while adding hydration and resilience.
Avoid harsh ingredients like sulphates or parabens where possible, and choose formulas designed to support hair recovery. Many of our hair treatment products contain active complexes that protect hair fibres and improve overall hair health over time.
Who should use a damage repair shampoo?
Anyone experiencing dryness, brittleness or visible damage due to heat, colouring or harsh weather can benefit from using a repair shampoo. These formulas are made to support weakened strands and bring softness and manageability back to the hair.
Whether you're combating daily frizz or dealing with more serious structural damage, using a repairing shampoo can help restore shine and strength. Pairing it with products from our Damaged Hair Treatments range may further enhance results.
How often should I use a repair shampoo for damaged hair?
Frequency depends on how damaged your hair is and how often you wash it. For more severe cases, it can be used every time you wash your hair. For mild or moderate damage, 1–2 times per week may be enough.
Always follow usage instructions and consider following up with a Hair Mask or a deep conditioning product from our Leave-in Treatments & Hair Masks category for enhanced benefits.
How long until I see results with a repairing shampoo?
Results vary depending on the severity of damage and consistency of use. Many users notice improvements in softness and appearance within a few washes, but deeper recovery can take a few weeks of regular use.
Choosing a targeted formula, such as one enriched with keratin or bond-repairing ingredients, gives your hair the nourishment it needs to recover gradually and consistently.
