Aimed at anyone with dry, chemically treated hair, whether from coloring, highlighting, straightening or bleaching, who needs a gentle, salt-free cleanse that doesn't strip further moisture. It suits coarse and colored hair especially well, and is formulated for regular, everyday use rather than an occasional treatment.

Chemically treated hair loses moisture and structural integrity faster than untreated hair, and this shampoo is built specifically to address that: a salt-free cleanse paired with argan and macadamia oils and antioxidant plant extracts, rather than a generic daily formula. The pH balancing also matters here, since overly alkaline shampoos can further roughen hair that's already been processed by color or bleach.

• Wet hair thoroughly, then massage shampoo into the scalp and through the lengths.
• Rinse completely with water.
• For deeper repair, follow with Mon Platin Black Caviar Mask once or twice a week.

Pros:

• Salt-free formula is gentler on color-treated and chemically processed hair than sulfate/salt-heavy shampoos
• Argan and macadamia oils help counter the dryness that comes with repeated coloring or straightening
• pH-balanced to the scalp, reducing the stripped, tight feeling some shampoos leave behind

Cons:

• Formulated specifically for damaged, chemically treated hair, so it may feel unnecessarily rich for fine, untreated hair
• Best results come from pairing it with the matching Black Caviar mask, which is an added product and cost
