It improves hair shine and strength, and reduces damage and imperfections on the hair surface (with both rinse-off and leave-on action).

Thus, due to its ceramide-like structure, Rep'hair® is inserted into the failing lipid cement of the hair fiberto restore the cohesion of the cuticle and the cortex. By strengthening the cortex and smoothing the hair fiber (by resoldering the scales with each other), Rep'hair® tends to:

  • Increase the shine of the stem
  • Increase its resistance : anti-breakage and anti-split effect
