The Elumen shampoo is part of the complete Goldwell Elumen line and works as a system together with the other Elumen care products. Here are the key benefits at a glance:

• Specifically tailored for hair coloured with Goldwell Elumen and Elumen Play
• Protects colour intensity and shine at every wash
• Reduces colour fading and dullness from washing
• Formula with glycerine, panthenol, hydrolyzed silk and hydrolyzed wheat protein
• Suitable for all hair types with Elumen colouring
• Contents: 250 ml

Apply the shampoo to wet hair. Massage it thoroughly into your hair and scalp. Then rinse well with lukewarm water. Repeat if necessary.

Want to protect your colour even better? Then combine the shampoo with the Elumen Colour Pre-Treatment before your colour treatment. It prepares your hair and enhances the result of your Elumen colour. Together they ensure a longer-lasting and more even colour result.

The shampoo is suitable for anyone with Elumen-coloured hair. Use it as a regular wash step to keep your colour looking beautiful for as long as possible.

Elumen colour works differently from regular oxidative hair dye. The colour bonds to the hair through direct dyes, without an oxidant. Goldwell developed this shampoo specially to respect and support this colour structure.

Panthenol strengthens your hair from within. Glycerine attracts moisture and keeps your hair flexible. Hydrolyzed silk and hydrolyzed wheat protein improve hair texture and add shine. Together these ingredients ensure the colour washes out as little as possible with every wash.

Generic colour shampoos are not tailored to the direct dyes in Elumen. This Goldwell colour shampoo is. That makes it the obvious choice if you want to keep your Elumen colour vibrant for longer. Hairdressers also recommend the matching care products within the Elumen system since they are designed to work as a whole.

The ingredient list may vary by product variant. Always check the packaging for the most up-to-date composition.

Not necessarily, but it’s the smartest choice. Goldwell clearly positions this shampoo as "made for Elumen to maintain colour and Elumen Play".

Other mild shampoos may work too, but they are not tailored to the direct dyes in Elumen. The risk of quicker fading is then greater. Users on forums often report their Elumen colour faded faster after switching to another shampoo. If you want to keep your colour beautiful for as long as possible, the matching shampoo is the safest bet.

Yes, this shampoo contains sulphates, including sodium lauryl sulphate and sodium laureth sulphate. So it is not a sulphate-free shampoo.

That may sound contradictory for a shampoo meant to protect colour. However, the difference lies not in sulphate-free cleansing, but in the specific match to the Elumen colour technology. The formula is designed to cleanse effectively without unnecessarily harming the direct dyes of Elumen.

Goldwell offers a complete Elumen care range that works as a system. The shampoo is the daily wash step. Combine it with the Elumen conditioner for care after washing. Use the Elumen Lock as a colour sealer after colouring. This step immediately extends the colour bond after treatment.

If you found your colour too intense or want to start fresh, the Elumen Colour Reducer Return is the right step. This way the entire line works together for maximum control over your colour result. This is exactly why hairdressers recommend the whole Elumen system, not individual products from the range.
