L’Oreal Professionnel Metal Detox Range.
Did you know metal in water penetrates your hair wash after wash? Yes, that’s a thing and no it’s not good.
This can lead to things like breakage, colour fading and other unwanted hair woes.
Enter the Metal Detox range.
What does the L’Oreal Professionnel Metal Detox range do?
Patented hair care that’s concentrated with the hero ingredient ‘glicoamine’ which is small enough to penetrate the fiber of the hair, trap metal, and neutralise its effects.
What is the Metal Detox range good at?
Good at giving you much less breakage (a promise of 99% breakage after one use).
Who is the Metal Detox range best for?
Though marketed for all hair types, anyone with processed, damaged hair that’s experiencing a lot of breakage will benefit most.
Beauty Editor Jas road-tested this range, so you can learn more about each product in more detail here.

L’oréal Professionnel Absolut Repair Molecular Range.
Your hair’s molecular structure is composed of peptides which can be compromised when hair is damaged.
As a result, it can lose its natural shine and bounce - sound like you?
We hate that for you.
If your hair is looking dull and lacklustre, then this will be your mane's new best friend and the right hair care range for your hair type.
What does the Absolut Repair Molecular range do?
Getting deep into your hair, it gives damaged and dull strands a mini makeover so it can return to its former happy, shiny and bouncy self.
Beauty IQ writer and AB staffer Chloe road tested and reviewed the Absolut Repair Molecular range, and says, “You will notice a difference in your hair within a few uses, the way it looks, the way it feels, it truly strengthens the hair."
Who is the Absolut Repair Molecular range best for?
One of the best hair care for damaged hair and stressed strands.

First things first we have to answer this question: Why is hair care for scalp important?
Or why is it important to take care of your scalp?
Long story short - a healthy scalp is the foundation for preventing issues like breakage, thinning, and even hair loss.
Nurturing your scalp is key to achieving stronger, fuller-looking hair.

Revitalising irritated or itchy scalps but is designed to target all scalp types and needs.
Whois the Scalp Advanced range best for?
Good for those who perhaps experience flaking,itchiness, or a sensitive and/or oily scalp.
What you should try from the Scalp Advanced range first:

If you're looking for treatments for thinning hair or products for thinning hair, the Serioxyl range should be high on your radar.
What to try from the L'Oréal Professionnel Serioxyl Advanced range:
I’ll let the brand do the talking and recommending here:
‘Because hair thinning often goes hand in hand with scalp sensitivity, we have developed new additions to our hair thickening product range, Serioxyl, with formulas that are all hypoallergenic to cater for sensitivity like the L'Oreal Professionnel Serie Expert Serioxyl Density Shampoo 300ml
These hair growth products are perfect to use in conjunction with our L'Oreal Professionnel Serioxly Advanced Denser Hair Serum 90ml - a daily hair loss treatment for those wanting denser, more luscious hair. It's powered by Stemoxydine 5% + Resveratrol.
