Engineered for fast-paced PROS - No mix. No extra rinse. Works in just 4 minutes.

Metals and minerals present in water can damage the hair—reducing the effectiveness of chemical and color services, dulling color, impacting the hair’s texture and bounce.

This is especially true for those with previously damaged or chemically-serviced hair, and those with heavy exposure to hard water and alkaline pH water.

Our chelator acts like a magnet, attracting 7 of the most common metals and minerals away from the hair and giving it a demineralizing refresh. Now, you can demineralize hair before every service with a faster, more convenient format, without sacrificing efficacy.
