KEVIN.MURPHY REPAIR-ME.WASH is a reconstructing shampoo that gently cleanses while helping repair damaged hair.
This hardworking formula uses clever proteins and enzymes to target weak, brittle areas, supporting the hair shaft as you wash. The lather feels creamy yet light, rinsing clean without that stripped, squeaky feeling.
Hair feels smoother to the touch, easier to detangle, and more flexible when you style. The scent is soft and salon-fresh, leaving your hair smelling clean and cared-for, not heavy or overly perfumed.
It’s ideal for hair that’s been damaged by heat styling, colour, or chemical treatments, and best used as part of your regular routine. With each wash, your hair can feel a little stronger, a little softer, and more manageable.

- Wet hair thoroughly with warm water.
- Apply a small amount to palms and emulsify.
- Massage gently into scalp and through lengths.
- Add a little water to build a soft lather.
