Let not on TV, but definitely from friends or at the hairdresser. Products from this company are positioned as professional hair cosmetics. The Kapous range includes shampoos, conditioners, masks, hair dyes, styling products . In this article we will study reviews about shampoo “Capus” for colored hair. Does he take good care of his hair, while leaving a bright color after dyeing? How long does it last and is it necessary to use balm with shampoo? Among the positive reviews from hairdressers there are also not quite positive responses from ordinary customers. Girls complain that Capus shampoo dries hair or makes it excessively stiff. Is the shampoo "to blame" or its improper use?
About the Kapus brand
This article provides a photo of Capus shampoo for colored hair, reviews about it and user recommendations. But first, let's figure out who makes this product. Because there is conflicting information on the network that, although this product is Russian, it is manufactured in Europe, meanwhile. How can this be?
Indeed, Kapous is a company registered with a Russian owner, meanwhile, the production is located in Italy. Since it is located in Europe, you can expect high quality from Kapous products because they comply with international standards. The brand has existed in the domestic market for a long time, and beauty salons are the first in a series of buyers of brand products. Ordinary women are not far behind, acquiring hair dye and care products.
What offers "Kapus" to customers
In the line of this brand there are many tools for styling, dyeing, care and restoration of hair. The brand is considered professional, but the products are available not only to hairdressers and hairdressers, but to everyone who wants to take care of hair at high quality and effectively at home. Kapous shampoos are very common in the CIS countries due to the affordable price, as well as the fact that any girl can choose a product that is perfect for her hair. Products are not sold in ordinary stores, they can only be purchased at specialized points of sale.
Many customers note that it is not very convenient that Kapous shampoo is packaged in bulk liter bottles and does not have a dispenser. Of course, the lack of a dispenser is a minus for the home use of the product, but it is thanks to the lack of these marketing tricks and amenities that you do not overpay for the product.
What do you pay attention to when choosing a shampoo?
For customers, in addition to the quality of the product, there are many other important factors that are conducive to the purchase of shampoo. This is a delicious smell, beautiful packaging or that the product is often advertised in the media. But as for the shampoo, it must, first of all, cleanse the skin well and wash the hair of the fat that is formed daily on the strands. As a result, it turns out that advertising and an appetizing smell does not matter.
Similarly, this is the case with dyed hair. For strands that have been chemically exposed, special care is required. Hair should not only be cleaned of dirt, but also made so that the color remains as long as possible. A good solution would be to use Capus shampoos for colored hair. Reviews, meanwhile, about this product can be found controversial. Someone considers this product a great and cheap solution for hair care. However, there are girls who strongly discourage the purchase of Kapous Shampoo, as they can ruin your hair. Is this true, we will analyze below.
Packaging, appearance
Reviews about shampoo "Kapus Studio" for colored hair are different. But before going directly to them, we will describe the appearance of the product packaging and consider how convenient it is to use the product. Shampoo is available in a liter bottle. The price ranges from 400 to 500 rubles, depending on the place of sale. The packaging has a strict and concise look, the bottle is painted black, the dispenser is missing.
Such a concise and not interesting design is due to the fact that the products of "Kapus" is not designed for the general consumer and is not advertised. Shampoos, balms and paints are intended, first of all, for professional use by masters who are already familiar with the brand, and therefore there is no advertising and entertaining stuff in the form of an attractive design.
The lack of a dispenser is not a problem
Buyers respond negatively, first of all, about the lack of a dispenser, since the expense can go uneconomical. To solve the problem, you can put the dispenser from another package.
Shampoo for colored hair “Capus”, according to reviews, has a chemical sweet and sour smell. The consistency is thick, the shampoo lathers very well, even on long hair it needs very little.
What shoppers expect
Even if you are not good at marketing, you probably expect that shampoo for colored hair will contain more caring substances than usual. Indeed, logically, the hair brought a chemical effect and was damaged. Therefore, a special shampoo is designed not only to give the hair a radiant and healthy look, but also to make them more healthy in the literal sense. On television, you can often see an advertisement for shampoos for colored hair, which says that this product contains special essential oils in double concentration and so on. According to reviews, “Capus” shampoo for colored hair is acquired even by women and girls who have never dyed their hair in principle.
Why are there negative reviews
On the network you can find a lot of negative reviews on the shampoo for colored hair “Capus”. Why is it so, if the reviews about paints and other shampoos from this brand are mostly laudatory? First of all, let's not forget that we are talking about professional cosmetics. Professional in the sense that it is used in hairdressers and salons, and is designed to provide excellent care on the day of installation or after painting. Professional products are not always suitable for daily home use. In addition, most professional cosmetics and care products contain special substances. According to reviews, shampoo “Capus” for colored hair for daily use is not suitable due to the fact that it contains color stabilizers. Information on this is on the manufacturer’s website. Alas, this is not on the product label. What are these active substances?
These are polishing reagents that help hair recover after chemical staining by covering hair flakes. Color stabilizers are quite active compounds that, one way or another, affect the structure and quality of hair. If you use this shampoo constantly, then, of course, your hair will become weakened due to the influence of a strong reagent.
Why the Capus shampoo for colored hair may not suit you
The photos in the before and after reviews of using Kapous shampoo do not always show brilliant results. In some photos you can see luxurious ringlets, while others literally have a stork’s nest on their head after using the product. Why are there so many unhappy? First of all, shampoo is selected not depending on the quality of the hair or the degree of color, but depending on which scalp. This factor is fundamental in choosing shampoo. Therefore, if the scalp is prone to dryness or the formation of dandruff, and the hair is dyed, then the correct choice is not the “Capus” shampoo for colored hair with balm, but special means for treating dandruff.
A few words about pH balance
Studying the label of shampoo, not every girl pays attention to acidity. And completely in vain. If the shampoo has a high pH balance, then you can spoil even completely natural and healthy hair. And vice versa, if you dye the strands with expensive paint, but use a shampoo with a low level of acidity, then the new color can be washed very quickly, and the hair will get an untidy look. Shampoo "Capus" for colored hair, according to reviews, is quite aggressive for hair. Indeed, the product has a high pH balance of 4.5. What does this indicator have in dealing with dyed hair? Shampoo with acidic pH helps to prolong the radiance of a new color, as it closes the hair scales. In addition, the product makes hair smooth, locks are easy to comb, shine and have a well-groomed appearance. But you certainly should not use the product for other purposes, if you have not dyed your hair. Also, you do not need to use such a shampoo every day.
Sulfates in shampoos
Often, girls do not pay attention to the indicated type of acidity balance on the label, while they thoughtfully look for the presence of sulfates in the composition. In fact, you are not looking at all. Sulfates are responsible for the formation of lush foam, and their presence in the composition of the product should not be intimidating. Agree that if you apply the product on the scalp and it does not wash, it will seem to you that something is wrong and the hair will not be washed. Therefore, sulfates are those compounds that are added not only to shampoos, but also shower gels, soap and even a dishwashing detergent. According to legend, which is among the residents of the metropolis, these chemical compounds cause allergies and dry out the scalp. We can agree with this, but it is worth noting that only one out of a hundred girls has a severe allergic reaction. Meanwhile, it is really not worth using shampoos-sulfates for those who have undergone keratinization of hair. By the way, in the Kapus line of products there are products that do not contain sulfates in the composition.
Summarizing
Reviews about the shampoo and “Capus” balm for dyed hair are quite true. These professional care products for colored strands will really make your hair obedient and shiny, and the color will last a very long time. But this will only happen if the product is used properly. Since, according to the description, “Capus” shampoo for colored hair is professional cosmetics, it is not suitable for daily shampooing. Also, in no case should you use this product for daily use.
According to reviews, the “Capus” shampoo for colored hair is quite comparable with such well-known brands as, for example, Loreal or Kerastase, but this product costs several times cheaper. Care will be more complete if you use hair balm with shampoo.
