K18 Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo 53ml
Product Information
Product Information
K18 Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo 53ml is a clarifying shampoo designed to deeply cleanse the hair and scalp by removing product build-up, excess oil, sebum and common impurities without stripping the hair. The colour-safe formula provides a deeper cleanse when your regular shampoo is not enough, helping create a clean foundation for your hair care routine.
Powered by activated charcoal and salicylic acid, the formula works across the hair and scalp to tackle build-up. Activated charcoal helps absorb excess oil, while salicylic acid helps clear sebum build-up within the hair follicle without stripping the hair of essential moisture and lipids.
The shampoo also contains the K18PEPTIDE™, K18's patented peptide technology. With an optimised pH of 3.8–4.2, Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo is formulated to help maintain the hair cuticle and support an effective cleansing environment. It is designed for occasional use rather than as an everyday shampoo.
Who Is This Product For?
K18 Peptide Prep Detox Shampoo is suitable for all hair types and textures when a deeper cleanse is needed.
It is particularly useful for:
- Hair with product build-up.
- Hair exposed to excess oil and sebum.
- Removing build-up from styling products.
- Hair that needs an occasional deeper cleanse.
- Preparing hair before using the K18 Molecular Repair Hair Mask.
- Colour-treated hair requiring a colour-safe clarifying shampoo.
- All hair types and textures.
