Pureology Strength Cure Shampoo 1 Litre is a strengthening cleanser that helps protect colour-treated hair.
This rich, creamy shampoo gently removes buildup while targeting damaged, split, or sensitised strands. Its formula works to support the hair fibre, helping to reduce the feel of breakage and leaving hair smoother from root to tip.
The lather feels velvety and cushioned on the scalp, with a light, clean scent that’s fresh without being overpowering. Hair rinses soft, detangled, and easier to brush, with a silky, light-reflecting finish.
Ideal for fragile, over-processed, or colour-treated hair, and safe for daily use. Reach for it when your hair feels rough, dull, or easily snapped, and enjoy strands that feel calmer, softer, and more manageable after every wash.

- Wet hair thoroughly with warm water.
- Apply a small amount of shampoo to scalp and roots.
- Massage gently to build a rich lather, working through mid-lengths.
- Rinse well until water runs clear.
