Damage is not evenly distributed along a hair. Ends that are two years old have been through far more than roots that are two months old, and a shampoo treating the whole length the same wastes most of its effort.

Dove's Intensive Repair formula is built to concentrate where the damage is. Fibre Repair Actives work into the inner structure of the strand, rebuilding the parts that brushing, heat and weather have worn through.

  • Targets damage along the length rather than treating it uniformly
  • Rebuilds damaged inner fibres to reduce further breakage
  • Smooths brittle hair and helps guard against daily wear
  • Reduces the look of split ends and frizz

8.5 oz. It is aimed at hair that has been coloured, heat styled or simply left long enough to accumulate wear, and it works best paired with the matching conditioner so the smoothing carries through to the ends.

Application tips

Damaged hair tangles in the shower, so get the water through it and comb it before you start if you need to. Massage the shampoo into the scalp and let it travel down; piling the lengths on top of your head is how knots form.

Two rounds if there is product to shift. Squeeze the water out gently afterwards rather than wringing it, since wet damaged hair stretches.

Results

The rough, dry patches along damaged lengths smooth out and the hair stops catching on itself. Ends look less frayed and the whole thing takes a comb more willingly.

It is a repair wash rather than a heavy one, so hair is not left flat or coated. Colour-treated and heat-styled hair is where the difference shows fastest, over a few washes rather than one.

Composition

Coconut Oil
Softens the rough patches along lengths that have taken heat or colour
