Davines MELU Shampoo for Long or Damaged Hair — 8.45 fl oz, Elasticizing & Anti-Breakage with Villalba Lentil Seed

Davines MELU Shampoo is a gentle, elasticizing cleanser formulated for long or brittle hair that helps improve strand resilience and shine using Villalba lentil seed extract.

Designed in Parma, Italy, this creamy, foaming shampoo uses mild surfactants to remove impurities without weighing down long lengths. Enriched with Lentil Seed extract from Villalba to support elasticity and Phenethyl Benzoate to enhance surface shine, MELU aims to make fragile hair feel softer and look glossier while minimizing breakage from daily handling.

How does MELU Shampoo protect long hair from breakage?

MELU Shampoo focuses on strengthening the hair fiber to reduce snapping and split ends caused by tension and brushing. Its formula targets elasticity so strands are less prone to stretching beyond their breaking point.

• Villalba lentil seed extract helps support fiber resilience.
• Mild surfactants cleanse without stripping natural moisture.
• Light conditioning agents smooth the cuticle, lowering friction.

Will this make my hair shinier and softer?

The formula includes Phenethyl Benzoate and emollients that improve surface gloss and tactile softness after rinsing. You should notice a brighter, more reflective finish and a silkier feel without a heavy residue.

• Phenethyl Benzoate enhances light reflection for added shine.
• Creamy texture conditions as it cleanses for smoother strands.
• Rinses clean for natural movement and bounce.

Is MELU Shampoo suitable for daily use and colored hair?

Formulated with gentle cleansing agents, MELU is appropriate for frequent washing of long or fragile hair but always follow your color-care routine if hair is dyed. The mild base helps preserve moisture and reduces the aggressive stripping associated with stronger detergents.

• Mild surfactants support regular use without excessive dryness.
• Gentle on delicate lengths; follow with appropriate conditioner or treatment.
• Safe in most color-care regimens—pair with color-protecting products when needed.

How should I use MELU Shampoo for best results?

Apply to wet hair, massage to lather from roots to ends, then rinse thoroughly and repeat if necessary. For optimal anti-breakage benefits, use alongside MELU conditioner or strengthening hair treatments to reinforce the fiber.

• Wet hair fully before applying a small amount of shampoo.
• Massage gently—avoid aggressive rubbing on fragile ends.
• Follow with a strengthening conditioner for long-term resilience.

Who is this for: Davines MELU Shampoo is aimed at people with long, thin, or brittle hair who want a lightweight, strengthening shampoo that improves manageability and surface shine.
