THE ANSWER Super Lamellar Shampoo 400ml pump — advanced lamellar technology for smooth, salon-quality hair with bergamot & daphne scent.
About this product
KAO THE ANSWER Super Lamellar Shampoo represents a significant step forward in at-home hair care science. Drawing on KAO's decades of lamellar liquid crystal research — the same technology that underpins the brand's professional hair treatment heritage — this shampoo cleanse is formulated to deposit ultrafine lamellar structures within the hair shaft during every wash. These nano-scale lamellar layers mimic the natural lipid matrix of healthy hair, filling gaps in the cortex and sealing the cuticle for a smooth, chip-resistant surface that resists humidity-induced frizz and improves colour retention. The bergamot and daphne signature scent adds a refined, gender-neutral fragrance dimension to the routine. The 400ml pump bottle provides hygienic, controlled dispensing for daily use.
How to use
- Wet hair and scalp thoroughly with warm water
- Dispense 1–2 pumps into the palm (adjust for hair density and length) and lather between hands
- Apply lather to the scalp first, massaging with fingertips in circular motions for 60 seconds to lift sebum and product buildup
- Work remaining lather through mid-lengths and ends with gentle downward strokes
- Rinse completely with warm water until the scalp and hair feel clean; follow with THE ANSWER conditioner or treatment for optimal lamellar layering
Ingredients
- Sodium cocoyl isethionate — mild, sulfate-free-style primary surfactant that cleanses gently without stripping the scalp's natural oil balance
- Lamellar liquid crystal complex (KAO proprietary) — deposits ultrafine lipid bilayer structures into cortex gaps during cleansing to repair surface smoothness and reduce cuticle porosity
- Cationic polymers — provide in-shampoo conditioning to reduce tangling and improve wet-hair combing
- Dimethicone — lightweight silicone that adds post-wash slip and shine without heavy buildup
- Citric acid — maintains pH to keep the cuticle closed and maximise lamellar deposition efficiency
- Bergamot & daphne fragrance — fresh, sophisticated botanical scent with floral-citrus balance
FAQ
What is lamellar technology and why does it matter?
Lamellar structures are ordered lipid layers that naturally exist in healthy hair; the THE ANSWER formula deposits synthetic analogues to repair gaps caused by chemical treatment, heat styling, and everyday wear.
Is this shampoo suitable for colour-treated hair?
Yes — the lamellar complex helps seal colour molecules into the cortex, making it particularly beneficial for extending the life of colour treatments.
How soon will I notice the lamellar difference?
Many users report noticeably smoother, more manageable hair after 1–2 washes; full cuticle repair effect builds over several weeks of consistent use.
Is this suitable for fine hair?
Yes — the lamellar complex adds structure without weighing fine hair down; use one pump to avoid over-conditioning.
Can I use this shampoo without the matching conditioner?
Yes, though combining both THE ANSWER shampoo and treatment maximises lamellar layering for the best results.
