Colour care

Professional colour

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Matrix a professional brand?
Yes. Matrix is exclusively sold through professional channels and authorized retailers. It's used by over 500,000 salon professionals worldwide.
How does Matrix compare to Biolage?
Matrix and Biolage are sister brands — both owned by L'Oréal Group. Biolage has a premium botanical positioning. Matrix Total Results covers a broader concern range at a slightly more accessible price and is the more widely used professional brand.
What is Matrix Bond Ultim8?
Bond Ultim8 is Matrix's 8-bond protecting system — an in-salon and at-home protocol for protecting hair bonds before, during, and after colour services. It competes with Olaplex and K18 in the bond-building category.
Which Matrix product is best for dry, colour-treated hair?
Total Results Moisture Me Rich for moisture, or Total Results Color Obsessed for colour protection. For severely damaged colour-treated hair, combine Instacure with Color Obsessed.
Is Matrix good for curly hair?
Yes. A Curl Can Dream is Matrix's dedicated curl collection — sulphate-free with honey and jojoba for definition and moisture without crunch.
