Using gentle plant-derived surfactants instead of harsh sulfates, this 12 fl oz (355mL) shampoo cleanses the scalp and hair effectively while simultaneously rebuilding broken hair bonds, sealing damaged cuticles, and preserving color vibrancy — designed to pair with the Trader Joe's Bonding Conditioner for maximum repair results.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eActive Ingredients and Hair Repair Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolyzed Keratin\u003c\/strong\u003e — Keratin constitutes approximately 95% of the hair shaft's structural composition. Hydrolyzed Keratin is processed into low-molecular-weight peptides that penetrate the hair cortex during cleansing, filling gaps in the cuticle layer caused by bleaching, heat styling, chemical relaxing, or mechanical damage. Restores tensile strength, reduces breakage, and improves hair resilience with repeated use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHydrolyzed Silk (Silk Amino Acids)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Silk fibroin-derived amino acids (serine, glycine, alanine) that adsorb onto the hair surface and interior during washing, improving moisture retention, adding natural shine, reducing static electricity, and leaving a smooth, silky texture after rinsing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant-Derived Bonding Agents\u003c\/strong\u003e — Natural bonding technology that targets broken disulfide bonds in the hair shaft — the primary structural bonds damaged by bleach, perms, and chemical relaxers — and reinforces them during the cleansing process to reduce ongoing breakage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSulfate-Free Surfactant System\u003c\/strong\u003e — Gentle plant-derived cleansing agents that effectively remove scalp buildup, excess sebum, and environmental impurities without stripping the hair's natural lipid layer or disrupting the scalp's moisture balance — critical for color-treated hair where sulfates accelerate color fade.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePanthenol (Provitamin B5)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Penetrates the hair shaft to attract and retain moisture, improve hair flexibility and elasticity, and reduce brittleness — particularly beneficial for chemically processed or heat-damaged hair.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAloe Vera Leaf Juice (\u003cem\u003eAloe Barbadensis\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Soothes scalp irritation, delivers lightweight hydration to the hair shaft, and enhances overall softness and manageability post-wash.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Sulfate-Free Matters for Damaged and Color-Treated Hair\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePreserves color vibrancy\u003c\/strong\u003e — Sulfates (SLS\/SLES) are aggressive surfactants that open the hair cuticle and strip color molecules, causing premature fading.
