Paul Mitchell Color Protect Conditioner for Color-Treated Hair — 16.9 fl oz, UV‑shielding Shine

Paul Mitchell Color Protect Conditioner is a daily conditioner formulated to help extend the life of color-treated hair while detangling, strengthening, and adding shine.

This salon-grade conditioner is designed specifically for color-treated hair. It combines sunflower extract to help shield strands from UV-related fading with a lightweight conditioning system that smooths cuticles and eases combing. The formula also delivers an invigorating citrus-apple fragrance and comes in more recyclable packaging, reflecting Paul Mitchell’s ongoing environmental efforts.

How does this conditioner help prevent color from fading?

The formula uses sunflower extract to provide a protective layer that helps reduce the impact of sun exposure on dyed hair. Regular use builds a barrier that can slow down color washout and maintain richness and vibrancy between salon visits.

• Sunflower extract helps shield hair from UV-related color fading
• Lightweight conditioning prevents product buildup that can dull color
• Daily application preserves hue and shine over time

Will it make my hair feel heavy or greasy?

Paul Mitchell Color Protect Conditioner is formulated to condition without weighing hair down. It smooths the cuticle and detangles so hair feels softer and more manageable while keeping movement and body intact.

• Non-greasy, salon-grade texture suitable for daily use
• Detangling properties reduce breakage from brushing
• Adds shine without flattening hair volume

What are the scent and sensory details I can expect?

The conditioner features a fresh, energetic fragrance with top notes of orange, apple and bergamot. The scent is noticeable but not overpowering, offering a clean, uplifting finish after rinsing.

• Bright citrus and fruit notes for a refreshing shower experience
• Light, rinse-out formula that leaves a subtle aroma on hair
• Salon-quality sensory profile used by professionals

Is the packaging environmentally responsible?

Paul Mitchell has updated retail packaging to include post-consumer recycled content and simplified caps and labels to improve recyclability. Check local recycling guidelines for specifics, as pumps and select caps may still be made from virgin plastics.

• Bottles and jars made with 50% PCR (retail sizes)
• Tubes contain 25% PCR (retail sizes)
• Low-profile caps and labels designed for easier recycling

Who is this for: Paul Mitchell Color Protect Conditioner is aimed at anyone with chemically treated or color-enhanced hair who wants a gentle daily conditioner that supports color longevity and shine. It’s appropriate for salon clients and at-home users seeking professional-grade results, particularly those exposed to sun or frequent washing who want to keep their color looking fresh between salon visits.
