Joico K-PAK Color Therapy Color-Protecting Shampoo is a gentle cleanser formulated to preserve salon color while rebuilding strength and boosting shine.

Designed for chemically treated hair, this shampoo combines keratin with nutrient-rich oils to remove dirt and buildup without stripping pigment. Its antioxidant-rich African Manketti and argan oils help shield hair from environmental stressors, while SmartRelease liposomes steadily deliver repairing ingredients during and between washes. Lab tests show it preserves over 82% of hair color after 18 washes when used as directed with the K-PAK Color Therapy system.

How does this shampoo protect my color between salon visits?

This formula cleanses without aggressive detergents that can accelerate fading, and deposits protective oils and proteins that help lock in pigment. Regular use helps maintain vibrancy longer compared with standard shampoos.

• Maintains over 82% of color after 18 washes (laboratory data).
• Antioxidant African Manketti oil helps shield hair from environmental fade.
• Argan oil provides moisture, reducing dullness that masks color.

Can it repair damage and reduce breakage from chemical services?

Yes—keratin and SmartRelease technology target weakened areas to rebuild protein structure and improve elasticity. The continuous-release system delivers keratin, arginine, and rosehip oil to help reinforce strands during routine washing.

• Keratin replaces lost protein to strengthen fragile fibers.
• SmartRelease liposomes gradually supply repairing ingredients.
• Improved elasticity means fewer snaps and less combing breakage.

Is this safe for daily use on color-treated hair?

The shampoo is formulated to be gentle enough for frequent washing while still removing residues like hard water minerals, chlorine, and pollution particles. For best color preservation and conditioning, pair it with K-PAK Color Therapy Conditioner.

• Clarifies pollutants, chlorine, and mineral buildup without harsh stripping.
• Suitable for routine use when protecting color is a priority.
• Works best as part of the K-PAK Color Therapy system.

What sensory and ingredient benefits will I notice after using it?

Expect a creamy lather and smoother-feeling hair after rinsing, with improved shine and manageability over time. The blend of oils and proteins leaves hair looking healthier and less frizzy without weighing fine strands down.

• Argan oil provides lightweight hydration and visible shine.
• African Manketti adds antioxidant protection to help prevent fading.
• SmartRelease technology enhances long-term repair and protection.
