The K18 Peptide Prep™ pH Maintenance Shampoo is a high-performance, daily-use cleanser engineered to preserve hair health and maintain scalp homeostasis. Formulated with a microbiome-conscious pH of 4.5–5.5, this shampoo effectively removes environmental pollutants and excess sebum while preventing the excessive swelling of the hair cuticle. Infused with the patented K18PEPTIDE™, it acts as a protective barrier to minimize protein loss, ensuring the hair remains resilient, smooth, and optimally primed for molecular repair.

Key Features

• Optimal pH Balance: Maintains an acidic environment (4.5–5.5) to keep the cuticle closed, protecting natural moisture levels and enhancing hair shine.
• Biomimetic K18PEPTIDE™: Utilizes a patented peptide sequence to fortify the hair’s structural integrity during cleansing, significantly reducing protein depletion.
• Microbiome-Safe Cleansing: Features plant-derived surfactants that provide high-efficiency cleansing without disrupting the scalp’s natural flora or stripping essential lipids.
• Color-Safe & Non-Sensitizing: Dermatologist-tested and specifically engineered to prevent pigment washout, making it ideal for chemically treated and sensitive hair types.
• Minimalist Professional Formula: A clean, 17-ingredient composition free from sulfates, parabens, phthalates, and silicones; the 930ml salon-size format ensures long-term professional or home maintenance utility.

Recommended Usage

• Application: Apply a measured dose to wet hair, focusing on the scalp and primary areas of oil accumulation.
• Massage: Gently work the formula into a concentrated lather. The low-pH formula cleanses effectively without the need for aggressive mechanical friction.
• Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water. Due to its non-stripping nature, this shampoo is safe for daily use.
• Synergistic Protocol: Designed as the primary cleansing step before applying the K18 Molecular Repair Mask. For best results in a professional or intensive home care routine, alternate with the K18 Detox Shampoo weekly.
