METAL DETOX
The science
behind
better colour
If you colour your hair, this is one of the most worthwhile few seconds you'll spend in the salon.
Here's something most people don't know: the water in our taps carries tiny metal particles, and wash after wash, those metals penetrate inside the hair fibre. You can't see or feel them, but once they're there they can cause breakage and unreliable colour results during colouring, balayage and lightening. It's a common reason colour appears patchy or fades faster than it should, and it happens to hair of all types.
Metal Detox is a pre-colour treatment that neutralises those metals before we begin. Powered by Glicoamine, it's applied to your hair at the start of your appointment and takes just seconds, working quietly in the background to protect your hair throughout the colour process.
The difference it makes is genuine. L'Oréal's own testing shows up to 99% less hair breakage, with colour that comes out more even, more reliable and noticeably longer-lasting. For anyone lightening their hair, going blonde, or having regular colour, it's especially valuable.
We recommend Metal Detox alongside any colour service, and particularly if you're colouring at home between visits, have hard water, or swim regularly. It's a small addition to your appointment that protects the investment you're making in your hair.
