R+Co METAL DETECTOR Detox Shampoo — 8.5 oz color-safe metal-removing clarifier for shine and buildup removal

R+Co METAL DETECTOR is a gentle, color-safe detox shampoo that targets heavy metals, mineral deposits, and product buildup to restore shine and vibrancy after a single use.

If your hair looks dull, feels weighed down, or your color lacks pop, METAL DETECTOR is formulated to address invisible impurities such as copper, iron, and hard-water minerals. Using a blend of a Metal Detox Complex and eco-friendly biosurfactants, it cleanses scalp and strands without stripping natural oils, making it safe for color-treated and textured hair. The result is softer, shinier, more luminous hair and a cleaner foundation for styling or color services.

How does METAL DETECTOR remove metals and buildup without fading color?

METAL DETECTOR uses a targeted Metal Detox Complex that helps bind and neutralize trace metals and mineral residues, while gentle biosurfactants lift sebum and product residue. The formulation avoids harsh sulfates that can strip pigment, so it clarifies without aggressively dulling color. It’s designed to clean effectively while preserving moisture and surface integrity.

• Binds copper, iron and other trace metals to rinse away
• Eco-friendly biosurfactants remove oils and styling residue
• Sulfate-avoiding base minimizes color stripping and dryness
• Leaves hair prepared for color services or at-home care

When should I use this detox shampoo in my routine?

Use METAL DETECTOR when hair feels weighed down, looks lackluster, or before a color service to help ensure even color deposition. It’s formulated for occasional use—up to twice weekly—so you can clarify without over-drying. Follow with your preferred R+Co conditioner to restore slip and manageability.

• Use before coloring or lightening for cleaner, more even results
• Apply when hard water or product buildup is suspected
• Safe for periodic use (recommended up to two times weekly)
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with conditioner for best results

Will this make my hair feel dry or fragile?

METAL DETECTOR is formulated to clarify without stripping natural oils, so it minimizes the dry, brittle feel typical of aggressive clarifiers. It helps remove pore-clogging buildup while leaving a softer, more flexible strand surface. For textured, chemically treated, or naturally dry hair, pairing with a nourishing conditioner will maintain softness and manageability.

• Color-safe, non-stripping surfactant system protects natural oils
• Adds shine and softness after rinsing buildup away
• Works well with R+Co conditioners to restore moisture balance
• Helps reduce future damage by clearing residue that impedes product performance

How do I apply METAL DETECTOR for best effect?

Apply a palm-sized amount to wet hair, concentrating at the roots and massaging through to the ends to emulsify impurities. Rinse thoroughly and repeat if hair is very product-laden or exposed to heavy mineral deposits. Finish with a conditioning step to restore softness and ease detangling.

• Apply to wet hair; massage from roots to ends
• Rinse completely; repeat once if needed
• Use up to two times per week for maintenance or pre-color prep
• Follow with an R+Co conditioner for hydration and slip

Who is this for: METAL DETECTOR is ideal for anyone with color-treated, chemically processed, textured, or everyday hair who notices dullness, roughness, or stubborn buildup. It’s especially useful for people in hard-water areas, those who use multiple styling products, or clients preparing for a color service. If you want a clarifying shampoo that neutralizes metal deposits while remaining gentle on color and natural oils, METAL DETECTOR is designed for that purpose.
