K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH Protective Shampoo Biomimetic Hairscience – Gentle Clean, Powerful Defense
Protect your hair every time you wash it. The K18 DAMAGE SHIELD pH Protective Shampoo is a daily-use, color-safe shampoo powered by biomimetic science to gently cleanse while helping shield hair from damage—before it even begins.
Formulated with a patented pH-optimized technology, this shampoo works to maintain your hair’s natural moisture barrier, strengthen the outer cuticle layer, and defend against environmental stressors. It’s not just cleansing—it’s conditioning and protecting your hair on a cellular level.
What Makes It Different:
Most shampoos—especially harsh, foaming ones—can strip your hair’s protective barrier, leaving it vulnerable to damage, dryness, frizz, and color fade. K18’s DAMAGE SHIELD pH Protective Shampoo does the opposite.
With a precisely calibrated pH range of 4.5–5.5, it respects your scalp and hair’s natural acidic environment, keeping the cuticle sealed and protected. It’s packed with biotech-grade ingredients that gently cleanse away dirt, oil, and impurities without disrupting your hair’s structure or weakening the scalp barrier.
The result? Clean, soft, strong hair—ready for anything.
Key Benefits:
-
pH-Optimized Cleansing (4.5–5.5) to protect the hair cuticle and preserve moisture
-
Color-Safe & Keratin-Safe: Won’t strip or dull treated hair
-
Moisture-Retaining Formula: Helps hair retain essential hydration
-
Gentle, Non-Stripping Surfactants: Effective cleanse with zero harshness
-
Supports Hair Strength & Shine: Leaves hair smooth, resilient, and visibly healthy
How It Works:
The hair and scalp are healthiest at a slightly acidic pH. Most conventional shampoos have a high pH that opens the cuticle, making hair vulnerable to frizz, tangling, and color loss. The K18 DAMAGE SHIELD Shampoo is different.
By keeping the shampoo pH tightly within the 4.5–5.5 range, it:
-
Protects the hair’s lipid barrier to maintain strength and elasticity
-
Seals the cuticle, so moisture stays in and damaging agents stay out
-
Preserves salon color, helping to reduce fading and keep tones vibrant longer
K18 also infuses the formula with optimized cleansing agents that remove daily buildup and excess oil without stripping the good stuff your hair and scalp need.
Star Ingredients:
-
Biomimetic Surfactant Complex: Ultra-gentle cleansing system that mimics the scalp’s natural balance.
-
Plant-Based Moisturizers: Nourish and soften while cleansing.
-
Biotech-Inspired Actives: Support scalp and hair health at the structural level.
How to Use:
- Apply to wet hair and scalp.
