Paul Mitchell Color Protect Shampoo for Color-Treated Hair — 33.8 fl. oz, UV-Guarding Sunflower Extract & Shine Boost

Paul Mitchell Color Protect Shampoo is a daily cleanser that helps preserve salon color while adding shine and minimizing sun-related fade.

Formulated for color-treated hair, this 33.8 fl. oz salon-size shampoo uses sunflower extract to help shield strands from UV exposure, detangle, and enhance vibrancy. It features a lively orange, apple and bergamot fragrance and comes in packaging made with post-consumer recycled materials where applicable. The formula is designed for everyday use and pairs well with conditioners and color-care routines without weighing hair down.

How does this shampoo help prevent color from fading?

The shampoo combines gentle cleansing with ingredients that protect hair from environmental stressors that accelerate color loss. Sunflower extract helps guard the hair surface from sun-related damage, while a supportive cleansing base removes styling build-up that can dull color over time.

• Sunflower extract helps protect hair from UV-related fade.
• Gentle surfactants clean without stripping dyes unnecessarily.
• Formulated to detangle and smooth strands for even color reflection.

Will it keep my hair feeling soft and shiny after color treatment?

Yes — the shampoo is made to add shine and help hair look vibrant after use. It smooths the cuticle so light reflects evenly, improving the appearance of depth and gloss without leaving a heavy residue.

• Enhances surface shine for healthier-looking color.
• Detangles to reduce breakage and promote smoother styling.
• Lightweight formula avoids buildup that mutes shine.

Can I use this every day and with other Paul Mitchell color care products?

This product is designed for daily use on color-treated hair and works well alongside conditioners and treatments in the Color Protect line. Regular use maintains a clean base so color treatments and conditioning products perform optimally.

• Daily-safe formula suitable for frequent washing routines.
• Pairs with Color Protect conditioner and leave-ins for extended benefits.
• Salon-size 33.8 fl. oz offers cost-effective, long-term use.

What should I know about the scent and environmental packaging?
