L’Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Shampoo cleanses while neutralising the copper metals that dull colour and cause breakage. Its patented Glicoamine technology targets metal particles in the hair fibre, gently cleansing without stripping — for brighter, stronger, longer-lasting colour.

Benefits
  • Neutralises copper — Glicoamine targets metal buildup.
  • Protects colour — preserves vibrancy between colourings.
  • Gentle cleanse — won't strip oils or scalp moisture.
  • Shine and strength — brighter, healthier-looking hair.
How to use
  1. Massage into wet hair and scalp in circular motions to lift buildup.
  2. Lather, rinse, and repeat for a deeper cleanse if needed.
  3. Follow with the Metal Detox Mask or Conditioner.

Why our stylists rate it
From the Partners Hair team
L'Oréal Professionnel Serie Expert Metal Detox Anti-Metal Cleansing Cream Shampoo is a sulfate-free anti-metal shampoo for all hair types. Part of the Serie Expert Metal Detox range — powered by patented Glicoamine. Gently cleanses while removing metal particles such as copper from the fibre, helping prevent breakage and colour shift, for stronger, shinier, longer-lasting colour.

Best for: colour-treated, bleached, highlighted, and hard-water-exposed hair; removing metal build-up that causes breakage and unwanted colour shift; protecting and prolonging salon colour; the cleansing step in a Metal Detox routine, or after a colour or lightening service.
Less suited to: severe structural damage needing protein rebuild (use L'Oréal Absolut Repair); everyday colour care without metal concerns (use L'Oréal Vitamino Color); dandruff or oily-scalp issues (use L'Oréal Scalp Advanced); curls needing definition (use L'Oréal Curl Expression).

Key actives:
- Glicoamine — patented molecule small enough to trap and neutralise metal particles inside the fibre
- Sulfate-free cleansing cream base — gently cleanses colour-treated hair without stripping

Benefits:
- Removes metal particles such as copper from the hair
- Helps prevent breakage and colour shift
- Strengthens the fibre and nourishes for up to 72 hours
- Longer-lasting colour, up to 2x shinier with shampoo and mask
- Sulfate-free and colour-safe; for all hair types

How to use: Apply evenly to wet hair and lather into a rich foam. Rinse. Follow with the Metal Detox Mask. Use regularly, and especially around colour or lightening services.
