Protect your colour. Strengthen your hair. Reveal your shine. At Cruz Hairworks in Whitley Bay, our L’Oréal Metal Detox treatment is a smart step in caring for your hair—especially if you colour regularly or want to prevent breakage and dullness. This in-salon treatment is designed to neutralise metal particles in the hair, reducing the risk of damage and ensuring longer-lasting, more even colour results.
What Is a Metal Detox Treatment?
Over time, metal particles—mainly copper—build up in the hair fibre through washing with tap water. These particles can interfere with the colouring or lightening process, causing unpredictable results, increased sensitivity, and breakage.
The L’Oréal Metal Detox treatment neutralises these metals before colour, balayage, or lightening services. It’s a three-step system that purifies the hair before colour, protects it during processing, and cares for it afterwards—helping to preserve strength, shine, and vibrancy.

Who Is This Treatment For?
Metal Detox is ideal for clients who:
- Colour, lighten, or balayage their hair
- Have hard water at home
- Experience colour fade, patchiness, or dryness
- Want to improve the health and appearance of their hair
It’s particularly popular among our clients in Whitley Bay, North Shields, and the surrounding areas who want to enhance colour results while protecting the condition of their hair. Whether you’re blonde, brunette, or somewhere in between, this treatment is a simple but powerful upgrade to your colour service.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
When you book Metal Detox as part of your colour appointment, your stylist will apply the Metal Neutraliser spray before colouring. This key step targets and neutralises metals within the hair fibre to reduce breakage and support even colour lift.
After your colour is rinsed, your stylist will complete the system using the Metal Detox cleansing cream shampoo and protective mask, which gently purify the hair and restore softness, smoothness, and shine.
The entire process fits seamlessly into your colour service and requires no additional time at the basin—just extra care for your hair.
How Often Should You Book?
We recommend including Metal Detox with every colour, lightening, or balayage service to maximise protection and prolong your colour results. The at-home shampoo and mask are also available to support your hair between visits.
For colour that looks better, lasts longer, and keeps your hair feeling strong and healthy, book your Metal Detox treatment at Cruz Hairworks in Whitley Bay today.

Have an Olapex and Metal Detox treatment every 6 to 8 weeks. Leaves my hair feeling lush and fresh for weeks. Definitely worth the additional cost and its part of my regular visit to Andrew!
