Davines Alchemic Shampoo Chocolate is a colour-enhancing cleanser that deepens warm brunette tones beautifully.
This rich, cocoa-tinted shampoo gently washes away daily build-up while depositing subtle chocolate pigments on the hair. The creamy, velvety texture lathers softly, coating each strand without feeling heavy or sticky.

Perfect for natural or coloured brunettes wanting to refresh tone between salon visits. Use whenever your colour starts to fade or look flat.
Hair feels smoother, easier to comb and more polished, with a soft, touchable finish that looks freshly coloured.
