When "damaged" is putting it politely — years of colour, heat and everyday wear kind of politely — your hair needs backup with real muscle. This rich, buttery mask is exactly that sort of deep-repair heavyweight.
TL;DR: An intensive rinse-out treatment from L'Oréal Professionnel's Série Expert Absolut Repair line, powered by Omega-9 and protein. Its rich, butter-like formula deeply resurfaces very damaged hair for a smoother, softer, glossier and more controlled finish — while still feeling lightweight. Best suited to medium to thick hair and used one to two times a week.
Product Details and Benefits
- Omega-9 + protein formula — the reformulated Absolut Repair uses Omega-9 to coat and protect the hair fibre, while protein helps seal the cuticle and strengthen weakened, damaged strands.
- Rich, buttery texture — a deeply nourishing, best-selling formula built for hair that needs serious repair, not just a quick top-up.
- Resurfaces very damaged hair — restores dry, over-processed lengths for a smoother, healthier-looking and more controlled finish.
- Shine and softness — leaves the fibre glossier and soft to the touch, with a surprisingly lightweight feel for such a rich mask.
- Made for medium to thick hair — the substantial formula suits coarser, thicker or heavily damaged hair that drinks up moisture.
- Colour-safe, salon-grade care — a weekly deep treatment for colour-treated, heat-stressed or chemically processed hair between salon visits.
How to Use
- Shampoo first with the Absolut Repair Shampoo, then gently squeeze out the excess water.
- Apply the mask evenly through towel-dried lengths and ends (steer clear of the roots).
- Leave it to work for 3 to 5 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
- Use once or twice a week in place of your regular conditioner.
Pro tip: For your most fried, coarse or colour-battered sections, twist small pieces of hair around the mask, then pop on a shower cap and let the warmth of your shower help it absorb while you finish up. You get a deeper treatment without buying a single extra product.
Why You'll Love It
If your hair has been colour-processed, heat-styled and generally put through it, this is the buttery, deep-repair reset it's been crying out for — glossy, smooth and strong, minus the heaviness. Add it to your cart and give tired lengths their comeback.
