L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Anti-Metal High Protection Cream 100ml

Protect hair from breakage, color fade, humidity, UV exposure and heat up to 230°C with L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Anti-Metal High Protection Cream 100ml.

Metal particles naturally present in water, particularly copper, can accumulate within the hair fiber wash after wash. L'Oréal explains that excess metal can contribute to breakage, unwanted color shift and premature color fade. This professional leave-in cream is concentrated with 1% Glicoamine to help remove metal from the hair and protect against new particle deposits.

Beyond metal protection, it works as a complete daily protective leave-in: providing 72-hour hydration and frizz control, protection against humidity, UV exposure, brushing and heat up to 230°C, while helping hair feel softer, smoother, stronger and easier to style. L'Oréal also reports 97% of color brightness preserved after 8 weeks.

Its melting texture is designed to absorb quickly and coat the hair fiber without weighing it down, making it suitable for all hair textures, including color-treated, highlighted, bleached, damaged and natural hair.

What Does Metal Detox High Protection Cream Do?

This isn't simply a moisturizing leave-in cream.

The defining technology is 1% Glicoamine, developed around the problem of metal particles entering the hair fiber through water. L'Oréal states that the cream helps remove accumulated metal and protect against new deposits, reducing the conditions associated with breakage and color shift.

At the same time, it provides everyday protection against several other factors that can affect sensitized or color-treated hair:

Metal Deposits → Humidity → UV → Oxidation → Brushing → Heat

The result is a single leave-in product combining metal protection, hydration, anti-frizz performance, heat protection and color preservation.

Who Is It For?

Ideal for:

• Color-treated hair
• Highlighted hair
• Bleached and lightened hair
• Damaged hair
• Breakage-prone hair
• Dry or dehydrated hair
• Frizzy hair
• Hair regularly exposed to heat styling
• Hair exposed to strong sun and UV
• Natural hair exposed to metal-containing water
• All hair textures
• Anyone wanting a protective leave-in without a heavy finish

Pair Me With

• L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Anti-Metal Cleansing Cream Shampoo – cleanses while helping remove excess metal from the hair fiber.
• L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Professional Mask – provides deeper nourishment while helping protect against metal deposits, breakage and color fade.
• L'Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Protecting Concentrated Oil 50ml – adds lightweight nourishment, shine, frizz control and heat protection up to 230°C.

What's the Best Leave-In for Color-Treated Hair Exposed to Hard Water?

If you regularly color, bleach or highlight your hair, water exposure can matter more than many people realize.

Metals such as copper can be present in water and penetrate the hair fiber. L'Oréal's Metal Detox technology is specifically designed around neutralizing the effects of these metals.

Metal Detox High Protection Cream is therefore particularly relevant when you want one leave-in that combines:

Color Protection + Metal Protection + Hydration + Anti-Frizz + Heat and UV Protection

This positioning is especially relevant for customers in Cyprus, where Metal Detox is locally marketed around mineral/metal exposure and color protection.

Is Metal Detox High Protection Cream a Heat Protectant?

Yes. This is one of its strongest benefits.

L'Oréal officially states that the cream protects hair against heat up to 230°C / 450°F. It also provides protection against UV-induced damage, oxidation and brushing.

That makes it particularly useful before:

Blow-Drying → Diffusing → Straightening → Heat Styling

Apply it before drying or styling and do not rinse.

Metal Detox High Protection Cream or Oil – Which Should I Use?

Both belong to the same Metal Detox routine, but they shouldn't be positioned as identical products.

High Protection Cream
→ 1% Glicoamine
→ 72-hour hydration
→ 72-hour frizz control
→ Humidity protection
→ 3x more definition
→ UV protection
→ Heat protection to 230°C
→ Ideal when hydration and comprehensive daily protection are priorities

Protecting Concentrated Oil
→ Lightweight nourishment
→ Enhanced shine
→ Smoothing
→ 4x frizz control
→ 97% less breakage
→ Heat protection to 230°C
→ Ideal when shine, nourishment and an oil finish are priorities

They can also complement each other: use the High Protection Cream as the protective leave-in, then use a small amount of the Concentrated Oil when additional nourishment, smoothing and shine are wanted.
