doTERRA Protecting Shampoo — Daily clarifying shampoo with quinoa protein and mint essential oils

doTERRA Protecting Shampoo is a gentle, everyday clarifying shampoo that strengthens hair with quinoa protein while refreshing the scalp with CPTG peppermint, eucalyptus, tea tree, and spearmint essential oils.

If your hair collects buildup from styling products, mineral-rich water, chlorine, or daily pollutants, you need a cleanser that removes residue without stripping natural moisture. doTERRA Protecting Shampoo is formulated to lift impurities and fortify strands so hair feels clean, refreshed, and manageable whether you shampoo every day or after heavy exposure like swimming or workouts.

How does this shampoo remove buildup without drying hair out?

The formula blends mild surfactants with quinoa protein, which helps support the hair’s structure while loosening minerals, sunscreen, and styling products. Instead of harsh detergents that can leave hair brittle, this product aims to cleanse and condition in a single step so hair retains softness and resilience.

• Quinoa protein to strengthen and protect strands
• Mild cleansing agents that remove hard-water minerals and pollutants
• Balancing botanical extracts to preserve moisture

Will it work on color-treated or frequently styled hair?

Yes — the gentler surfactant system and protective quinoa protein make this shampoo safe for color-treated hair and for people who style often. It clears residue that can dull color and weigh hair down while helping to keep color vibrancy intact with regular use.

• Safe for color-treated hair
• Removes styling-product buildup that can fade color
• Helps hair maintain body and shine after repeated styling

What sensory experience does the shampoo deliver?

The scent profile is cooling and herbal from CPTG peppermint, eucalyptus, tea tree, and spearmint essential oils, giving a revitalizing wash and a brisk scalp sensation. Texture is creamy enough to lather well and rinse clean, leaving hair feeling refreshed rather than stripped.

• Cooling, mint-forward aroma with herbal undertones
• Creamy lather that rinses easily
• Leaves scalp and hair feeling invigorated

How should I use it for best results?

Apply to wet hair, massage into scalp to work through lengths, then rinse thoroughly; repeat if hair is very product-heavy. For weekly maintenance after exposure to pool chlorine or hard water, follow with a lightweight conditioner or the doTERRA Daily Conditioner to lock in moisture and manageability.

• Use daily or as needed after heavy exposure (pool, workouts, styling)
• Massage into scalp and through lengths, then rinse completely
• Pair with a conditioner for extra hydration and smoothness

Who is this for? doTERRA Protecting Shampoo is a fit for people who wash often, swimmers, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone exposed to hard water or frequent product use. It’s especially suited to those who want a clarifying cleanse that also supports hair strength and is compatible with color-treated hair, delivering a refreshing, aromatic experience without harsh stripping.
