Great Hair Starts in the Shower ™

Healthy, shiny hair is just a shampoo away. Yes, really. Establishing a regular hair wash using high-quality ingredients is integral to healthy hair. The I Need a Hero! Wonder Shampoo and Conditioner duo balance moisture levels throughout the hair, defends against pollution and UV light whilst sunflower seed extract helps prevent colour fade and prolong the life of colour treatments.

I Need a Hero! Wonder Shampoo works hard to deliver moisture, restoration, and hydration so hair appears stronger, healthier, and shinier with every single wash. See, real superhero stuff. Pair this multi-tasking, sulphate-free shampoo (which still foams well) with the cleverly formulated I Need a Hero! Wonder Conditioner. This conditioner works hard to bring back silky radiance to dull, dry, damaged, stressed areas of hair. Ingredients such as aloe vera nourish roots and condition lengths, whilst Pro-Vitamin B5 moisturises, smooths and reduces split ends to re-condition hair, bringing hair back to its former glory. The result is a sulphate-free conditioner that works for everyone, delivering glossy shine and all the protection hair needs.
