"The BALANCING SHAMPOO cleanses the hair deeply yet gently, while restoring the scalp’s natural balance for optimal hair health. Dr. Sturm’s ingredient complex containing Japanese Camellia, Brown and Green Algae and Lavender soothes the appearance of irritation, redness and itching and reduces flakiness caused by a dry scalp. In addition, Pro-Vitamin B5 promotes the resiliency of the hair shaft and achieves an ‘anti-splitting effect,’ improving hair condition. The BALANCING SHAMPOO also contains Sunflower Sprouts and Tara Extract, which protect the hair and scalp against heat, pollution particles and UV stress, Cationic Hyaluronic Acid, which boosts hydration and Purslane Extract, which has an anti-itching effect. Use in tandem with the BALANCING SCALP SERUM for hair that is velvety-soft, tangle-free, robust and glossy. "
