What is L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Anti-Metal High Protection Cream?

L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Anti-Metal High Protection Cream is a high-protection leave-in hair treatment designed to protect hair from metal deposits that can contribute to breakage and colour shift. Concentrated with 1% Glicoamine, the leave-in cream helps remove excess metal from the hair while protecting against new particle deposits. It also provides intense moisture, anti-frizz benefits and protection against UV impact, oxidation, brushing and heat up to 230°C/450°F. The melting-texture leave-in cream is designed to be instantly absorbed and coat the hair fibre without weighing it down, leaving hair feeling smoother, softer, shinier, more manageable and deeply hydrated.
