Paul Mitchell Clean Beauty Repair Shampoo — 33.8 fl oz, Plant-Based Strengthening for Damaged Hair

Paul Mitchell's Clean Beauty Repair Shampoo combines naturally derived ingredients and salon-grade performance to remove buildup, restore elasticity, and reduce breakage. Formulated with amaranth extract and pea protein, it focuses on rebuilding hair strength and balancing moisture without relying on heavy petrochemical ingredients. The 33.8 fl. oz. bottle uses bio-based plastic made primarily from sugarcane, reflecting the brand's commitment to sustainability and transparency under ISO 16128 standards.

How does this shampoo repair and strengthen damaged hair?

The formula targets weakened areas by delivering amino acids and proteins that support the hair's internal structure. Regular use helps reinforce strands so they resist breakage and feel smoother, while the gentle surfactants cleanse without stripping essential moisture.

• Amaranth extract supplies amino acids to support strand repair.
• Pea protein helps maintain hydration and elasticity.
• Cleanses away dirt and buildup to prepare hair for treatments.

Will this shampoo work on brittle, chemically treated hair?

Yes — it’s formulated to benefit hair that has been weakened by coloring, heat styling, or environmental stress. The nourishing actives work together to improve manageability and reduce the appearance of split ends over time when paired with a conditioning routine.

• Gentle enough for frequent use on color-treated hair.
• Supports reduced breakage after thermal styling or chemical services.
• Pairs well with conditioners or masks for deeper repair.

What does it smell like and how does it feel during use?

The shampoo has a delicate floral musk scent that is noticeable but not overpowering. It produces a creamy lather that rinses clean, leaving hair feeling softer and easier to detangle immediately after washing.

• Delicate floral musk fragrance for a light aromatic finish.
• Creamy lather that cleans without heavy residue.
• Leaves strands feeling softer and more manageable right away.

How does the packaging support sustainability goals?

Paul Mitchell Clean Beauty prioritizes bio-based materials and ingredient transparency. The bottle is made from 90% sugarcane-based plastic (excluding caps and pumps), reducing reliance on virgin petroleum plastics while maintaining product integrity.

• Primary packaging is 90% sugarcane-derived bio-based plastic.
• Ingredients are certified natural per ISO 16128 standards.
• Purchase supports professional salons through brand commissions.
