KÉRASTASE Première Repair Pre-Shampoo Treatment, Travel Size 1.5 fl oz — Dissolves Calcium & Reduces Breakage

KÉRASTASE Première Repair Pre-Shampoo Treatment is a dual-action pre-shampoo that removes calcium buildup and reconnects weakened keratin links to reduce breakage and restore shine.

This travel-size, salon-grade formula is designed for hair suffering from persistent stiffness, dullness and fragility caused by damage and mineral buildup from hard water. It combines citric acid to dissolve calcium deposits with glycine to help rebuild keratin linkages so hair feels smoother, looks glossier and resists breakage when used as part of the full Première routine.

How does the pre-shampoo step improve damaged hair?

Applied before shampooing, this treatment targets two common causes of weakened hair: mineral buildup on the surface and broken internal keratin links. Clearing surface minerals lets conditioning ingredients penetrate better, while glycine works to reconnect and reinforce bond points inside the fibre.

• Use on damp hair before shampoo to remove calcium layers
• Citric acid helps dissolve mineral scum that causes dullness and stiffness
• Glycine supports keratin reconnection to reduce breakage

What results can I expect and when will I see them?

Visible changes depend on hair condition and frequency of use, but many users notice improved manageability and shine after a few applications. The product is formulated to contribute to stronger hair over time when combined with the full Première system.

• Immediate benefit: smoother strand surface and easier detangling
• Short term: increased radiance and reduced stiffness after treatment
• With continued system use: significant reduction in breakage and restored strength

How should I use this pre-shampoo for best results?

Apply generously to damp hair and massage thoroughly, leaving the formula on for about five minutes before layering with the Première Repairing Shampoo. Do not rinse before shampooing—this step primes the hair for deeper cleansing and repair during the wash.

• Apply to damp hair before shampooing; do not rinse immediately
• Leave on for 5 minutes to act on calcium buildup and keratin links
• Follow with Première Repairing Shampoo, emulsify, then rinse

Can this travel-size product fit into my routine and luggage?

The 1.5 fl oz travel size is TSA-friendly and convenient for trips or for trying the treatment before committing to a full bottle. Its compact format lets you maintain a targeted repair step while away from home.

• Travel-safe 1.5 fl oz bottle fits carry-on rules
• Ideal for testing the dual-action system before full-size purchase
• Easy to pack for short trips without sacrificing repair steps

Use it as part of the Première system for best, cumulative results.
