Paul Mitchell Instant Moisture® Shampoo

Hydrating Daily Shampoo for Dry, Brittle Hair

A daily hydrating shampoo built for dry, brittle hair that needs softness and slip without heavy build-up. Gently lifts away dirt, oil and styling residue while panthenol and a plant extract blend top up moisture through the wash.

Why Choose It?

• Daily hydration: Tops up moisture every wash so dry, brittle hair feels softer and easier to manage.
• Gentle cleanse: Lifts dirt, oil and styling buildup without over-stripping the strand.
• Body and slip: Panthenol adds body while conditioning polymers smooth the cuticle for shine and detangling.
• Everyday-safe: Mild enough for daily use and works into a two-step routine with a matching hydrating conditioner.

Best For

Dry, brittle, moisture-hungry hair that needs a gentle daily wash with extra hydration and slip. Works for fine to medium textures that want softness without heavy build-up.

Pair with the matching Paul Mitchell Instant Moisture conditioner for a complete hydrating wash routine.

• Wet hair thoroughly with warm water.
• Apply a small amount of shampoo and lather gently from roots to ends.
• Massage the scalp to lift away dirt, oil and styling buildup.
• Rinse thoroughly with warm water, then follow with a hydrating conditioner.

Tips

• Use a coin-sized dose for shoulder-length hair — add more only if needed for longer or thicker hair.
• On heavily styled or buildup-prone hair, lather twice on the first wash for a deeper clean.
• Mild enough for daily washing — adjust frequency to how often your hair feels in need of moisture.
• Focus the lather on the scalp; let the rinse-out carry the cleansing through the mid-lengths and ends to avoid over-drying.
