Schwarzkopf is known for its at-home hair color products, and it's venturing beyond with the launch of KERATÎME Care & Styling, a new line powered by proprietary Multiplex Bonding Technology to bring professional-quality care home.
Joining the rapidly growing hair bonding category, KERATÎME introduces three premium, accessibly priced sublines: Deep Repair, Color Protect and Styling. More than just a solution for softer hair, the Deep Repair Conditioner strengthens and protects hair too. And the line's lightweight, fast-absorbing Hair Bonding Oil provides up to 450°F heat protection, plus 10x stronger* hair and enhanced shine with every use.
KERATÎME is exclusively available at Walmart and Schwarzkopf is partnering with country music star, entrepreneur and Schwarzkopf Brand Ambassador Jessie James Decker and celebrity hairstylist and Schwarzkopf Brand Ambassador Kylee Heath as the official faces of KERATÎME.
