KÉRASTASE Première Sulfate-Free Repair Shampoo - Citric Acid Decalcifying, Glycine Strengthening (250 ml)

KÉRASTASE Première Sulfate-Free Hair Repair Shampoo is a dual-action repairing shampoo that gently cleanses while removing calcium build-up and rebuilding weakened keratin links for stronger, smoother hair.

Built for hair showing signs of persistent damage and stiffness caused by mineral deposits, this sulfate-free formula combines citric acid to decalcify and glycine to reconnect keratin chains. The result is a cleansing treatment that targets both visible surface residue and the internal bonds that influence breakage, texture and shine. It’s designed to be used as part of the Première system for cumulative benefits.

How does this shampoo remove mineral build-up without harsh detergents?

The shampoo uses citric acid to dissolve and lift calcium deposits that accumulate from hard water, while keeping the formula sulfate-free for gentler daily cleansing. Because it avoids aggressive surfactants, it reduces stripping of natural oils and maintains hair moisture during the decalcifying process.

• Citric acid targets and breaks down calcium residue from shower water.
• Sulfate-free surfactants preserve hair’s natural lipids and color.
• Formulated for regular use without excessive dryness or roughness.

In what way does the shampoo strengthen hair and reduce breakage?

Glycine in the formula works to reconnect broken keratin links, which helps restore the internal structure of weakened strands. Over ongoing use, the dual action—removing external deposits and rebuilding internal bonds—leads to visibly stronger hair and less snapping during styling or brushing.

• Glycine supports reattachment of keratin chains to reduce fragility.
• Restores tensile strength for improved resilience.
• Paired with the Première conditioner or mask for optimal repair results.

What improvements to hair appearance and feel can I expect?

Users report smoother, shinier hair as the shampoo both clears dulling mineral film and repairs surface roughness. The combined cleansing and conditioning action aims to reduce stiffness from hard-water deposits while improving manageability and light reflection for added shine.

• Reduces stiffness and dullness caused by mineral residue.
• Enhances surface smoothness for easier detangling and styling.
• Contributes to increased shine compared with unwashed hair.

How should I use this shampoo within a repair routine?

For best results, apply on wet hair after using the Première Pre-Shampoo Treatment when indicated; massage to emulsify and rinse thoroughly. Follow with the Première Repairing Conditioner or Repairing Mask to seal and reinforce the hair fibers, and repeat consistently as part of a complete repair regimen.

• Start with damp hair and layer over any pre-shampoo treatment.
• Massage thoroughly, then rinse; follow with conditioner or mask.
• Use regularly as part of the KÉRASTASE Première system for cumulative benefits.

Who is this for: KÉRASTASE Première Sulfate-Free Hair Repair Shampoo is formulated for anyone with hair weakened by breakage, dullness, or stiffness from mineral buildup—regardless of hair type. It’s particularly helpful for people living in hard-water areas or anyone seeking a gentle, professional-strength repair shampoo to pair with targeted conditioners and masks. Avoid if you require clarifying sulfates for heavy silicone removal; otherwise, add this product to routines focused on rebuilding strength and restoring smoothness.
