Description

Paul Mitchell Clean Beauty Repair Conditioner is a creamy, strengthening conditioner that helps repair fragile, damaged hair.

This formula works by smoothing the hair cuticle and helping to prevent further breakage, so strands feel stronger with every wash. It gently detangles, making hair easier to comb while adding a soft, flexible finish.

The texture is rich yet lightweight, rinsing clean without a heavy or greasy feel. A soft, fresh scent makes washing your hair feel like a small daily treat.

It’s ideal for dry, damaged, or colour-treated hair that’s feeling rough, weak, or brittle. Use it after shampooing, especially when hair has been stressed by heat styling, colouring, or environmental damage, to leave it feeling smoother, more manageable, and cared for.

After shampooing, gently squeeze excess water from hair.
Apply conditioner from mid-lengths to ends.
Comb through with fingers or a wide-tooth comb.
Leave on for 2–5 minutes.

Use regularly for best strengthening results.
