Power Protein 200ml - Cadiveu Repair Solution is the pre-shampoo protein SOS of the Repair Solution home routine, a vegan, ultra-concentrated treatment built on amaranth protein, pro-vitamin B5 and arginine that rebuilds damaged hair before you even wash it. Worked into dry lengths and left for at least ten minutes, it floods weakened fibre with protein so the hair is stronger and better prepared for the shampoo and mask that follow. It is the first, repairing step of the routine, PETA-approved vegan, used on dry hair and rinsed out in the wash.

Why Power Protein

Damaged, over-processed hair is protein-depleted, which is what leaves it weak, porous and prone to breakage. Power Protein rebuilds it before the wash: an ultra-concentrated boost of amaranth protein, pro-vitamin B5 and arginine is worked into dry hair and left for at least ten minutes, so the proteins reinforce the fibre from the inside before shampoo ever touches it. Because it works as a pre-shampoo SOS on dry hair, the fibre is stronger and more resilient by the time you wash, and better able to hold on to the care that follows. It is the repair step that sets up the whole routine.

Key Ingredients

The rebuild comes from amaranth protein (amaranthus caudatus) with arginine and a full amino acid complex that reinforce the fibre, and pro-vitamin B5 (panthenol) with shea, chia (salvia hispanica) and linseed extracts that condition and soften. The formula is ultra-concentrated, plant-based and PETA-approved vegan.

What to Expect

After ten minutes on dry hair and a wash, the hair feels stronger and less fragile, with breakage-prone lengths reinforced from within. Used before the wash whenever hair is damaged or weak, it visibly improves how resilient the fibre feels and how well it takes the rest of the routine. It is an intensive pre-shampoo SOS rather than an everyday step: it rebuilds the fibre so the mask, fluid and daily care work on stronger hair.

Who It Is For

• Damaged, weak, over-processed or breakage-prone hair that needs rebuilding
• Anyone who likes an intensive pre-shampoo SOS before washing
• Hair that stays fragile even with a good conditioner and mask

Who It Is Not For

• Everyday conditioning: this is an intensive pre-wash SOS, not a daily rinse-out
• Anyone after a leave-in: this is worked in on dry hair and washed out, not left in
• Hair applied at the roots: keep it on the lengths and ends where the damage sits

Pro tip: work it into dry hair section by section, well off the roots, and give it the full ten minutes (a warm towel or cap helps) before you shampoo, so the proteins have time to reinforce the fibre. On very damaged ends, a slightly heavier layer there rebuilds them more.

How to Use

Power Protein is part of the Repair Solution routine, so it works best alongside the other steps. Here is the full routine, with its step in focus:

1. Pre-shampoo SOS: on dry hair, work the Power Protein through the lengths and ends (keep it off the roots), massage and leave it for at least 10 minutes, then wash it out.
2. Wash and condition: shampoo and condition as usual.
3. Repair: on washed, towel-dried hair, spread the Repairing Mask through the lengths and ends, leave it for about 3 minutes, then rinse.
4. Finish and heat-protect: shake and spray the Repair Addiction Fluid through clean, damp hair, comb it from roots to tips, do not rinse, then blow-dry for heat protection up to 230°C.

Every step is vegan (PETA-approved). Do a small patch test if your skin is sensitive.

Where It Fits in Your Routine

Power Protein is the pre-shampoo repair step of the Repair Solution routine: work it into dry hair and leave it 10 minutes, then wash, treat with the Repairing Mask for about 3 minutes and finish with the Repair Addiction Fluid before blow-drying. Together they rebuild, repair and protect damaged hair.
