New Pantene Customized Hair Solutions - Try a Free Sample & Enter to Win a $25 Walmart Gift Card

I'm a Pantenologist! Pantene recently sent me information about their whole new approach to hair care along with product to try and a special goodie to share with one lucky Beauty by Jinxy reader.

Pantene has changed the way they looked at hair care. Applying cutting-edge research tools from NASA, the medical industry, and other fields outside of hair care, Pantene Pro-V scientists gained a new understanding of the physical and chemical properties of hair structure, including their unique patterns of multifiber arrangements.

Previously, hair was analyzed as single fibers or at the bulk hair level, overlooking the intermediary step — studying hair at the multi-fiber, three-dimensional level — a critical factor in product performance that influences how ingredients work on hair. With this new understanding of hair at three critical levels: single fiber, bulk, and multi-fiber arrangements, Pantene researchers identified four distinct hair structures: fine, medium/thick, curly, and color-treated — and changed its entire approach to product design.

NEW Pantene Customized Solutions are designed for your unique hair type:

FINE

Pantene Pro-V Fine Hair Solutions in three versions: Flat to Volume, Dry to Moisturized, Fragile to Strong
PROBLEM: Fine hair has up to 50% less protein.*
SOLUTION: NEW Pantene Fine Hair Solutions provide reinforcement to keep hair from falling flat. Go from lifeless to light and bouncy.

MEDIUM-THICK
Pantene Pro-V Medium-Thick Hair Solutions in four versions: Frizzy to Smooth, Breakage to Strength, Dry to Moisturized, Flat to Volume
PROBLEM: Thick hair absorbs up to 40% more moisture.**
SOLUTION: NEW Pantene Medium-Thick hair solutions offer options designed to make unruly hair shiny and manageable.

CURLY
Pantene Pro-V Curly Hair Series in two versions: Curls to Straight, Dry to Moisturized
PROBLEM: Curly hair has a unique growth pattern — as it curls, the cuticle can weaken, leaving it rough and unruly.
SOLUTION: NEW Pantene Curly Hair Series transform curly hair to help loosen or define curls, control frizz, and repair damage.

COLOR
Pantene Pro-V Color Hair Solutions in three versions: Color PreserveTM Shine, Volume, and Smooth
PROBLEM: Color-treated hair is changed at a structural level. Its natural protective layer is removed. This is one reason why over time, your color may look dull.
SOLUTION: NEW Pantene’s Color Preserve collections create a water-resistant layer to slow water absorption and leave your color vibrant.
