Unlock Stronger, Healthier Hair with Yen Body’s Cortex Care Shampoo

Discover the power of pH balance for your hair with Yen Body’s Cortex Care Shampoo. Our long hair specialists answer the question “Why do I need a pH balanced shampoo?” and explain the importance of keeping your hair’s pH within the optimal range of 4.5 to 5.5. Prevent unwanted breakage, seal your hair cuticles, and maintain natural moisture and oils for strong, healthy hair. Say goodbye to damaging effects caused by an alkaline pH, and enjoy the benefits of balanced, beautiful hair with Cortex Care.

Get Back in Balance with Cortex Care Shampoo:

Is your hair experiencing symptoms of an imbalanced pH? Find out with Yen Body’s Cortex Care Shampoo.

When your hair’s pH is too alkaline, you may suffer from itching and flakiness on your scalp. On the other hand, if your pH is too acidic, your hair may feel dry, brittle, and suffer from excessive split ends. Overly alkaline hair can also lead to frizziness, dryness, and a lack of elasticity.

Indicators that your hair’s pH level is imbalanced:

If it’s too alkaline, you may experience itching and flaking on your scalp. It will cause the hair cuticle to lift, resulting in frizziness, dryness, and rough texture. On the other hand, if it’s too acidic, your hair cuticle will shrink, causing dryness and brittleness, which leads to excessive split ends. Colouring your hair also imbalances your pH, so incorporating a pH-balancing shampoo into your hair care regimen after any colouring service will help maintain healthy, balanced hair.

Being in the 4.5 to 5.5 happy hair balance:

Maximise the health of your hair with Yen Body Cortex Care Shampoo! Our shampoo is designed to restore balance to your hair’s pH, keeping it in the ideal range of 4.5 to 5.5. This helps your scalp fight off environmental aggressors, leading to healthier hair.

Our shampoo is packed with antioxidants, effectively lifting impurities from the scalp for a deep clean. It stimulates the scalp for optimal health and is both vegan and cruelty-free. Additionally, our shampoo is safe for colour-treated hair and provides hydration for a silky-smooth finish.
The cortex is the main bulk and source of colour in your hair, and it’s composed of long keratin filaments held together by disulphide and hydrogen bonds. The health of the cortex depends mainly on the integrity of the cuticle, which protects it.
At Yen Body, the health of your cortex is our top priority. Our pH-balancing shampoo works deep into the cuticle to provide protection from the inside out, and this results in healthier hair and is suitable for all hair types.

Team it up with our Cortex Protection Conditioner 

How to use Cortex Care Shampoo: Start by wetting your hair in the shower. Dispense three pumps of the shampoo into the palm of your hand and massage it into your scalp and roots. Scrub away impurities and rinse thoroughly. For best results, repeat the process. Follow up with our Cortex Protection Conditioner for optimal hair health.

For extra cleansing benefits, it is recommended to apply the shampoo twice. The first shampoo will lift oils, dirt, and product build-up from your hair and scalp, while the second shampoo will effectively remove them. Achieve a healthy, refreshed scalp and beautiful hair with every use.

Enhance the Beauty of Your Hair with Yen Body Cortex Care Shampoo

Our pH-balancing shampoo is packed with nourishing ingredients to give your hair the ultimate spa day experience.

Say hello to healthier hair with the power of:

Prickly pear: Rich in amino acids, it stimulates collagen production and removes dead skin cells from your scalp, keeping it free from bacteria.
Biotin: This B7 vitamin thickens your hair and stimulates keratin production, promoting healthy hair growth from the root.
Glycerin: This natural humectant attracts moisture from the air, hydrating both your scalp and hair, and helping to relieve dryness and dandruff.
Backhousia Citriodora Lemon Myrtle: A refreshing scent that’s not only calming but also packed with antioxidants and anti-fungal properties.
Hydrolysed Wheat Protein: A protein boost that reduces breakage, eliminates frizz, tangles, and improves hair porosity, leaving your hair smoother and fuller.

    Balances my combination hair

    zoeneethling

    Finally found a natural shampoo that leaves my hair soft, silky and balances it out beautifully. I have a dry scalp, but also get oily build up in my hair. This is the first shampoo I’ve used that balances it out beautifully and love the natural ingredients.

    The best Shampoo and Conditioner for my unruly, dry coarse hair

    arenacharlotte (verified owner)

    I have been searching for a excellent quality, well priced, smoothing shampoo and conditioner for my dry, thick, coarse frizzy hair and thank goodness I have found it. It is such a pleasure to use knowing that every time I use it I feel confident the result will always be the same fantastic. They are also, low foam, sulfate free and not at all heavily perfumed. And Aussie made!! Win, win, win 💙💚☺️
