Kapous Magic Keratin shampoo: composition features, pros and cons, application

Keratin is an important component of hair, which provides it with strength and healthy appearance. If the curls for some reason lose some of the keratin, problems begin: hair brittleness, dullness, dryness, curls become naughty, get confused and fluffed, and the ends begin to split.

The solution can be a keratin hair restoration procedure, during which the curls will again be filled with keratin and acquire a protective layer that prevents mechanical damage. It is sometimes difficult to perform it at home, but in the salon it is expensive. In this case, an excellent alternative to the procedure can be the use of care compositions for curls, which directly includes keratin.

The Kapous Professional brand is engaged in the release of this kind of products. The company's specialists have created a whole line of keratin-based hair care products called Magic Keratin.

The line includes a lot of products (masks, balms, serums, lotions, fluids for the ends), but this article will focus on shampoo.

Magic Keratin is part of the Fragrance Free series, which is distinguished by the absence of perfumed fragrances or additives.

Kapous Magic Keratin shampoo is available in two formats: 300 ml and 1000 ml bottle. A large volume will be a more profitable purchase. But if you are not sure if the shampoo will work, you can start with a small volume and thus evaluate the product.

The shampoo has a pleasant consistency: not very liquid, so as not to spread instantly, but not too thick to facilitate its removal from the bottle.

As noted a little above, the shampoo does not contain fragrances, parabens and sulfates. Such a remedy is allowed to be used independently, or you can use it after hair keratinization.to prolong the effect of the procedure even longer.

In addition to keratin, the shampoo also contains the following components: vitamin E, fruit acids, extracts of various oils. They provide the curls with nutrition, protect them from mechanical damage and negative external influences, give them tone and strength.

The shampoo also contains mild surfactants, the main task of which is to gently cleanse the scalp and hair along its entire length.

The manufacturer claims that the product also contains polyunsaturated amino acids, which are designed not only to nourish the scalp, but also to prevent the accumulation of free radicals on it.

An important benefit of Magic Keratin Revitalizing Shampoo is that it takes care of the curls every time you wash your hair. In this case, no additional action is required - the restoration of curls occurs during the implementation of standard care.

Keratin shampoo gently but deeply cleanses the hair and scalp thanks to a specially selected complex, the main task of which is not only to cleanse the curls, but also to ensure the penetration of the active substances of the shampoo into each hair.

An indisputable advantage is the effect of healthy curls, which lasts until the next shampooing.

Since keratin is a natural component of curls, the advantage of shampoo is that it is embedded in the hair and works from the inside. Thus, the active ingredients continue to work for recovery even when the shampoo itself has already been washed off.

The composition of Magic Keratin can be attributed to its virtues: it is free of fragrances, parabens and Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) - standard sulfate, which is present in almost all mass-market shampoos. However, Magic Keratin contains another sulfate - Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate.

The disadvantages can also be attributed to the relative high cost of the product from Kapous: its price exceeds the average cost of a standard shampoo with sulfates.

Before using the product, you need to take into account that sulfate-free shampoos do not foam as much as common productscontaining Sodium Lauryl Sulfate. For some, this is a significant disadvantage of the product. But this is a feature not only of sulfate-free shampoo from Kapous, but also of any other similar product. This must be taken into account before switching to compositions of this type.

There are cases of individual intolerance to the components that make up the shampoo, which can lead to undesirable consequences, such as hair loss or obvious allergic reactions: itching, redness, peeling of the skin and others. That's why experts insist on testing the product on a small area of ​​the skin before using it.

Due to the fact that the product lathers worse than ordinary sulfate shampoo, the consumption of Magic Keratin will be slightly higher than usual, especially if you need to rinse long hair.

Sulfate-free Magic Keratin shampoo is primarily designed for dry curls and hair with split ends... The main task of the tool is to restore curls. And he can even restore hair damaged during dyeing, perm, straightening. This is what the manufacturer says.

Also keratin shampoo suitable for strands that have become lifeless, dull, very tangled and fluffy... He will make them shiny, docile and soft again.

Magic Keratin will be a good choice for those with long, thin hair who have difficulty with tangled strands and the inability to comb them. The shampoo will help keep your hair soft and easy to comb, even when wet.

The manufacturer recommends washing the curls twice for the shampoo to work effectively and to achieve a positive result. The first time the product should be applied to damp hair, lather and rinse. This is necessary in order to cleanse the curls from all the dirt: dust, secretions of the sebaceous glands, the remnants of styling products.

At the same time, it is not necessary to massage the skin strongly, since the unremoved dirt can be absorbed even more into the hair.

The second time the shampoo is applied to the strands again, foamed and left on for 3-5 minutes... During this time, the active components of the product will open the hair scales and penetrate inside to restore keratin from the inside. After holding the product on the head, you need to wash it off. If your hair needs extra conditioning, a balm should be applied to the hair.

If you do not follow the instructions prescribed by the manufacturer, you should not expect a quick result. Keratin takes time to penetrate the hair. Therefore, the shampoo requires some exposure time, as is usually the case with balms or hair masks. The active substance must reach the core of the hair and begin to act.

There are a huge number of rave reviews about the shampoo from those who use it successfully. Basically, women note the positive effect of the product on the curls: the shine and elasticity of the hair return, they again become soft, obedient and alive. Someone even claims a visible effect after the first application of the shampoo.

Many satisfied reviews indicate that the product does its job and brings hair of any length and quality back to life. Users note that the effect of healthy curls lasts for several days.

There are reviews in which users note that they could get a visible result only after using the shampoo in conjunction with any other product from the Magic Keratin line, for example, with a balm or mask.

However, there are also negative reviews. For the most part, in them, users report that the shampoo did not have any restorative effect on the hair, that is, it is good as a regular shampoo, but the restoration of curls declared by the manufacturer did not follow.

Less common are user reviews in which they complain about poor hair and scalp response to shampoo. The curls either lost their former shine, became dry and lifeless, or began to fall out. The scalp from the product itches, redness appears.

There are several reviews in which consumers state that the shampoo does not properly rinse the hair and also causes the scalp to become oily.
