Moroccanoil®, the iconic, global leader in argan oil-infused beauty, is thrilled to announce the new Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor Collection, a complete portfolio of permanent, demi-permanent haircolor, and lighteners featuring the brand’s proprietary ProArginine + ArganID® System, a breakthrough technology that delivers exceptional protection throughout the color process. INTRODUCING: COLOR CALYPSO DEMI-PERMANENT COLOR Now available as part of the Moroccanoil in-salon professional offering. COLOR CALYPSO DEMI-PERMANENT CREAM COLOR Achieve unbeatable shine, color clarity, and lasting vibrancy. An easy-to-use, low-commitment cream formula. Provides a 52% increase in shine** with 56% more conditioned and manageable hair. Up to 60% coverage on white and grey hair. Available in 44 shades. “The same spirit of innovation that the brand was built upon is at the heart of the new Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor Collection. It’s an exciting time for us to enter the professional haircolor category, especially with color being one of the most requested services and needs in the industry,” says Moroccanoil Vice President of Global Education, Robert Ham. “Salons and professionals have always been at the forefront of the brand, and we are thrilled to continue that relationship through haircolor. This is our continued commitment to them, with a truly fantastic product and tool.” The Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor Collection will be available during color services at selected Professional Hair Color Salons nationwide. PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES: ProArginine + ArganID® System The core of the Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor Collection is the proprietary ProArginine + ArganID® System. An amino acid naturally found in the hair and therefore easily accepted by it, ProArginine works as an alkalizing agent that supports the color process, while ArganID® helps to repair and seal the cuticle. Powered by this breakthrough technology, Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor delivers the following benefits: 64% increase in shine* 96% of clients experience overall scalp comfort** 9+ weeks of salon-vibrant color*** During the haircolor process, ProArginine + ArganID® work synergistically to protect and nourish the hair. ProArginine is a type of amino acid that is naturally found in the hair fiber. In its original state, it is highly alkaline. When used at higher, active levels, it becomes a powerful good-for-you alkalizing agent that supports the haircolor chemistry. After ProArginine is finished with its alkalizing duties, it improves the hair’s strength, creating healthier-looking hair and allowing for long-lasting color. ArganID® technology features positively charged micro-particles that are attracted to the negatively charged hair fiber, infusing the antioxidant and moisturizing powers of argan oil deep into the cortex. Color adheres more readily to hair restored with the ProArginine + ArganID® System, creating healthier-looking, long-lasting haircolor. *Average shine achieved based on shade selection. **Based on color services performed on 45 clients. ***Based on an average of 3 hair washes per week. Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor: Commitment to Salons & Stylists The Moroccanoil Professional Haircolor Collection is rooted in innovation, while strengthening the Moroccanoil longstanding commitment to salon professionals. Stylists will be able to attract new business and build loyalty by offering their clients a full range of services that deliver vibrant, long-lasting haircolor with intense shine while maintaining the integrity of the hair. ABOUT MOROCCANOIL: Inspired by the Mediterranean, the Moroccanoil brand comes to life through our iconic turquoise and signature fragrance, for an exotic experience that transports the senses. Our first product, the original Moroccanoil Treatment, pioneered oil infused haircare and created the worldwide buzz on argan oil.
