It’s applied to damp hair before shampooing, creating a clean, receptive surface so subsequent products in the system can perform optimally. The result is softer, shinier strands with reduced stiffness and fewer snap-offs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the pre-shampoo remove calcium buildup?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe treatment contains citric acid, a chelating agent that helps dissolve mineral deposits deposited on the hair surface.
