shu uemura art of hair Ultimate Reset Extreme Repair Conditioner 8 fl oz — Japanese rice extract, deep repair

shu uemura art of hair Ultimate Reset Extreme Repair Conditioner is a salon-grade, rice-extract conditioner that deeply nourishes and fortifies dry, chemically or heat-damaged hair to reduce breakage and split ends.

This conditioner uses Japanese-sourced rice extract to replenish moisture, improve elasticity, and smooth strands weakened by bleaching, coloring, or frequent heat styling. The creamy formula detangles while delivering targeted nutrients to mid-lengths and ends, leaving hair softer and more manageable. A signature fragrance blends fruity top notes with floral heart notes and warm, comforting base notes for a sensorial finish.

How does this conditioner repair very damaged hair?

The formula concentrates rice extract and salon-strength conditioning agents that penetrate the fiber to rebuild resilience and seal cuticles. It works over repeated use to visibly improve texture and reduce signs of mechanical and chemical damage without weighing hair down.

• Japanese rice extract supplies minerals, antioxidants, and vitamins B and E for nutritional support.
• Rich emollients smooth and detangle brittle strands to minimize friction-related breakage.
• Designed for color- and heat-treated hair to help restore elasticity and shine.

When and how should I use it in my routine?

Use after shampooing, ideally on towel-dried hair. Apply through mid-lengths and ends, leave for several minutes for deeper penetration, then rinse thoroughly for conditioned, softer hair.

• Apply to freshly washed, lightly towel-dried hair for best absorption.
• Tip: Section hair, twist away from the face, and leave on for five minutes for intense nourishment.
• Rinse well and follow with styling products as needed; use regularly for cumulative benefits.

Will this conditioner help with split ends and breakage?

While no conditioner can permanently repair already severed ends, this product helps reduce future breakage and the appearance of split ends by strengthening and smoothing hair. It lowers friction, detangles gently, and improves manageability to prevent further mechanical damage.

• Fortifies weakened fibers to reduce snapping during brushing and styling.
• Detangling action decreases pulling that leads to split ends.
• Regular use helps hair retain moisture and elasticity, lowering breakage risk.

What does it smell like and what are the key ingredients?

The scent is a layered blend: fresh peach and orange blossom top notes, a floral heart of jasmine, geranium, and ylang ylang, and a warm base of tonka bean, sandalwood, vanilla, and musk. The standout active is Japanese rice extract, supported by conditioning agents that hydrate and protect.

• Main active: Japanese-sourced rice extract rich in nutrients and vitamins.
• Conditioning emollients to smooth, detangle, and protect cuticles.
• Fragrance combining fruity, floral, and warm base accords for a refined finish.

Who is this for: This conditioner is made for people with dry, fragile, chemically treated, or heat-stressed hair who want salon-level repair and long-term strengthening. It’s suitable for color-treated hair and for anyone seeking a nourishing conditioner that reduces breakage while improving softness and manageability. Not intended as a medical treatment—ideal as part of a restorative hair-care routine to support visibly healthier-looking hair.
