Moisturizing Shampoo Sublime with Hyaluronic Acid

Thick hair has a tendency to dry out and get frizzy quicker than any other hair type since its diameter of the hair fiber is wider than the average one and, therefore, it makes slightly more difficult to hydrate it in depth.

For this reason, abril et nature has designed the Sublime line, specially for the care of thick hair.

Sublime contains two bio-technological active ingredients that repair the outer and inner layers of the hair fiber: a primary lipid derived from 18-methyl eicosanoic acid + a complex of plant proteins. The primary lipid is placed between the scales of the cuticle, restoring and locking them into their original flat state. The plant protein complex repairs hair’s keratin structure inside the cortex. Hyaluronic acid recovers hair's original moisture level ensuring flexible and soft hair with greater resistance to breakage.

Shea Butter: natural vegetable fat extracted from the nut of the African Shea tree. Its high content of natural vitamins and fatty acids makes it extremely nourishing and moisturizing for hair and skin. With its creamy and melting texture, it protects hair against any damage during washing, styling work and "chemical" processing thanks to its moisturizing, protective and regenerating properties.

Plant Stem Cell Culture Extract: provides a rejuvenating effect restoring the hair fiber from the inside. Is obtained from a rare variety of the Swiss apple, the “Uttwiler Spätlauber”, which has long been known for its extraordinary storability without wilting and shriveling. This extract is made from those Swiss apple stem cells providing antioxidant and anti-aging benefits. Adds vitality and youthfulness to the skin and hair. Enhances hair growth.

Hyaluronic Acid: is a polysaccharide obtained through a natural fermentation process, with the aid of proteins, sugars and yeasts. It has a dual capacity: helps retain moisture and is able to penetrate the interior of the cortex of the hair. Thanks to this dual capacity, it restores and maintains the original moisture of the dehydrated hair and prevents further dryness. The hair fiber recovers its original flexibility, elasticity, and resistance to breakage and rupture.

Caviar Extract: active ingredient of marine origin, with a high content of proteins and regenerating nutrients for skin and hair. Rich in vitamins A, D, E and B12 that promote cell growth and stimulate skin and hair regeneration. Also exert an antioxidant effect against free radicals that damage the skin and hair and, therefore, help delay aging.

Positively Charged Conditioners: consists of two parts: one part that contains the positive charge neutralizes the negative charge of the hair fiber, eliminating static electricity and preventing frizz; another part, that is emollient (softening) and similar to the natural lipids of our scalp, provides moisture nourishing and conditioning the hair.

Anti-frizz Active Ingredients Positively Charged: As damaged hair surface bears a negative charge it causes static electricity and makes your hair frizzy. Those positively charged ingredients can easily attach to the hair surface, neutralizing thereby the negative charges and prevent your hair from frizzing.

Nutritious Oils of Vegetable Origin: mostly derived from coconut. Present as tiny droplets in the composition of a shampoo or a cream. When the product is applied, those oil droplets deposit on the hair fiber surface creating a thin moisturizing and nourishing film around the hair.

How can I recognize porous hair?

Porous hair is characterized by its rapid absorption of moisture and easy loss of it. To determine if your hair is porous, we recommend conducting the water glass test: place a clean, dry strand of hair in a glass of water. If the hair sinks rapidly, it's porous; if it floats on the surface, it's less porous. This test can be useful to understand your hair's characteristics and choose appropriate products for its care.

Should I cut my hair if it's severely damaged, thick, and porous?

If your hair is severely damaged, thick, and porous, it might be worth considering trimming the ends, especially if they're extensively damaged (split ends) and not responding to other treatments. However, this decision will depend on the severity of the damage and advice from a hair specialist. It's important to note that regular haircuts are generally beneficial for maintaining healthy hair and preventing future damage.

What type of products are suitable for my severely damaged, thick, and porous hair?

If you're dealing with severely damaged, thick, and porous hair, we recommend using specific products that contain hydrating and nourishing ingredients like natural oils, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. These ingredients can help repair and strengthen damaged hair, while improving its overall appearance and texture. It's crucial to avoid products containing harsh elements like sulfates and alcohol, as these can deteriorate the hair’s condition and make the hair appear even more damaged and lifeless.
We suggest incorporating the hair care products of the Nutrition line by abril et nature into your hair care routine. This product line is specially formulated to address the needs of damaged, thick, and porous hair. It includes essential ingredients like natural oils, repairing proteins, and vital vitamins.
