shu uemura art of hair Ultimate Reset Extreme Repair Conditioner 8 fl oz — repairs damaged, color-treated hair with Japanese rice

This conditioner uses Japanese-sourced rice extract to replenish moisture and fortify fragile strands weakened by bleaching, coloring, and thermal styling. The formula targets dryness and porosity, smoothing cuticles and improving elasticity without weighing hair down. Lightweight yet concentrated, it’s designed to detangle, repair, and restore manageability after chemical or heat damage.

How does this conditioner repair very damaged hair?

The formula combines humectant-rich hydration with rice-derived nutrients to rebuild surface strength and resilience. Repeated application helps reduce visible breakage and frizz while improving hair texture over time.

• Japanese rice extract supplies minerals, antioxidants, and vitamins B and E to the hair fiber.
• Concentrated emollients smooth cuticles for immediate softness and shine.
• Detangling agents reduce friction to prevent mechanical breakage while combing.

Will it work on color-treated and chemically processed hair?

Yes — the conditioner is formulated specifically for hair that’s been bleached, colored, or heat-styled. It restores hydration and helps protect fragile treated ends, improving manageability without stripping color or adding heavy buildup.

• Safe for colored hair: strengthens without dulling vibrancy.
• Replenishes lipids to reduce porosity and color fade.
• Lightweight conditioning prevents weighed-down feel on fine treated strands.

How should I use it for best results?

For targeted repair, apply after shampooing to towel-dried hair, focusing on mid-lengths and ends where damage is concentrated. Leave the conditioner on for a few minutes to allow the rice extract and nourishing agents to penetrate, then rinse thoroughly.

• Part hair into two sections for even application.
• Massage through mid-lengths and ends; twist sections away from the face to enhance absorption.
• Leave in for about five minutes before rinsing for optimal conditioning.

What sensory details and fragrance should I expect?

The scent blends fruity and floral top notes with a warm, creamy base that lingers subtly on hair without overpowering. The texture is rich yet silky, designed to detangle quickly and rinse clean for a smooth, glossy finish.

• Top notes: peach and orange blossom for a fresh opening.
• Middle notes: jasmine, geranium, and ylang ylang add floral complexity.
• Base notes: tonka bean, sandalwood, vanilla, and musk provide a warm, lingering finish.

Who is this for: Ideal for anyone with dry, brittle, chemically treated, or heat-damaged hair seeking a salon-level repair conditioner. It’s suitable for people who want to strengthen strands, reduce split ends, and restore softness and shine without heavy residue. Use regularly as part of a repair-focused routine for best results.
