Why is metal dangerous for your hair?

Metal in water, penetrating inside your hair wash after wash, is one of the major causes of hair breakage. Porous hair has even higher risk of breaking as it absorbs 2x more water filled with metal¹.

All you need to know about Metal Detox.

  • 1. What is the Metal Detox range by L’Oréal Professionnel?

    Metal Detox is a professional haircare protocol designed to protect hair from metal particles found in water, which can increase porosity, breakage and color shift. It is the pro choice for colored, bleached, highlighted and dry, sensitized hair that needs reinforced protection and shine.

  • 2. How does metal in water affect hair porosity and breakage?

    Day after day, metals like copper accumulate inside the hair fiber, especially on porous, bleached or damaged hair. This can make hair more fragile, increase porosity, and lead to breakage and split ends, particularly after color or lightening services.

  • 3. Which products are included in the Metal Detox range?

    The Metal Detox range includes an anti-porosity filler pre-shampoo treatment, an anti-metal shampoo, a professional hair mask, a high-protection leave-in cream, and a concentrated oil. Together, they help cleanse metal particles, protect the fiber, and visibly reduce dryness, breakage and split ends.

  • 4. How does the Metal Detox hair mask help dry and bleached hair?

    The Metal Detox hair mask intensely nourishes dry and bleached hair while helping protect it from metal particle deposits. It helps limit breakage and split ends and makes hair easier to detangle with a gliding effect from roots to ends.

  • 5. Why is Metal Detox especially recommended for bleached and highlighted hair?

    Bleached and highlighted hair is more porous and therefore absorbs more metal from water. Using the Metal Detox shampoo, hair mask and leave-in care helps protect these fragile fibers from breakage and color instability, while improving smoothness and shine.

  • 6. Can Metal Detox help with split ends and visible surface damage?

    Metal Detox does not replace a haircut, but by reinforcing the fiber and reducing metal-related stress, it helps limit future breakage and split ends. Hair looks smoother on the surface, with less visible damage on lengths and ends and an overall healthier appearance.

  • 7. Is Metal Detox suitable for dry, thick or textured hair?

    Yes, the formulas are developed for all hair types, including dry, thick or textured hair that often suffers from porosity and dryness. The hair mask, cream and oil deliver intense care without weighing the hair down, helping curls and waves look more defined and controlled.

  • 8. How should I use Metal Detox in my routine after a bleach service?

    After a bleach or highlight service, cleanse with Metal Detox shampoo, then apply the hair mask on towel-dried hair and leave for a few minutes before rinsing. Follow with the leave-in cream and/or oil to protect bleached lengths from breakage, dryness and everyday aggressions.

  • 9. Can I use Metal Detox on natural, non-colored hair that is dry or damaged?

    Absolutely; even natural hair can become dry, porous and damaged from repeated exposure to water, heat and environmental stress. Metal Detox helps protect the fiber from metal particles, leaving dry and damaged hair feeling smoother, stronger and easier to style.

  • 10. How often should I use the Metal Detox range to see results on hair breakage and porosity?

    For best results on hair breakage, porosity and split ends, use the Metal Detox shampoo every wash, apply the Metal Detox hair mask once or twice a week, then follow with the leave-in cream and/or oil on lengths and ends. With a consistent routine, hair feels progressively stronger, smoother and more resistant, especially on bleached and sensitized hair.
