Shampoo bar against gray hair with plant polyphenols
Gray hair occurs when the melanin pigments in the hair fiber decrease. This is a natural aging process, but for many people, it feels too early or too noticeable. At the same time, hair quality changes over the years: hair becomes drier, thinner, and loses its natural resilience. Traditional solutions like chemical hair dye further stress the hair and only address the symptom.
DP Dermaceuticals Colour Recharge Shampoo Bar tackles both problems at once. The shampoo bar combines plant polyphenols, which gradually restore the natural hair pigment when exposed to oxygen, with nourishing ingredients from the Exo-Grow line that strengthen the hair fiber and help prevent hair loss. With weekly use, hair gradually returns to its original color, whether blonde, brown, red, or black. This makes it a unique anti-aging approach to hair care.

Active ingredients
Plant polyphenols (gallic acid and tannin): The heart of the formula. These plant polyphenols bind to the hair fiber and react with oxygen in a natural oxidation process. The result is a gradual return to the original hair color, without synthetic dyes or harsh oxidizing agents like hydrogen peroxide.
Active charcoal and black fruit complex: A combination of coconut charcoal, blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, and eggplant, rich in dark anthocyanins and minerals. This complex enhances color restoration and restores depth and shine to the hair.
Sophora Japonica Callus Culture Extract: A plant stem cell extract clinically studied to counter follicle shrinkage. Strengthens the hair root and promotes denser, healthier-looking hair while the color formula works.
Edelweiss Extract (Leontopodium Alpinum): A powerful antioxidant from mountain plants that protects the hair follicle against free radicals and environmental aggressors. Supports long-term hair fiber health.
Soy protein (Glycine Max): A plant protein with a structure similar to the hair’s natural protective layer. Strengthens the hair fiber from within and repairs damage caused by heat styling or chemical treatments.
Peptide complex with Copper Tripeptide-1, Acetyl Hexapeptide-8, and Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7: An advanced peptide complex that supports the hair follicle, strengthens the scalp barrier, and contributes to healthier hair growth.
Ceramide complex with five ceramides: Ceramides are essential fats that hold the hair structure together. This complex locks in moisture and protects hair from dryness during and after the color restoration process.
Camellia Japonica seed oil and olive oil: Two nourishing plant oils that restore hydration and shine. Camellia has been used in Japan for centuries for silky, shiny hair without weighing down the scalp.
Niacinamide and Panthenol: Niacinamide regulates sebum production on the scalp, while panthenol (provitamin B5) intensely hydrates and restores hair fiber resilience.

Frequently asked questions
How exactly does the color restoration work, is it really about the natural hair color?
Yes, this is not a dyeing process. The plant polyphenols (gallic acid and tannin) bind to the hair shaft and react when exposed to oxygen. This creates a gradual darkening that mimics the hair’s original pigment color. The result therefore automatically adapts to the user’s natural color, whether blonde, brown, red, or black.
How quickly will I see results in color restoration?
After about three to four weeks of consistent use, a gradual change becomes visible. For full color restoration, we recommend a treatment of two to three months, after which maintenance use (once or twice a week) is sufficient. The effect is cumulative, so regularity is more important than frequency.
Is this shampoo bar safe for colored or bleached hair?
For chemically colored or bleached hair, we advise caution. The polyphenols can interact with the chemical pigments, making the result less predictable. Test first on a small, inconspicuous area and observe the effect before applying it to the entire hair.
Can I also use this bar for my beard?
Absolutely. The bar is specifically developed for beard care and can even be used as shaving foam. For gray beard hair, the color restoration works exactly the same way as with scalp hair.
How long does one shampoo bar last?
With washing two to three times a week, a 70-gram bar usually lasts three to four months. Store the bar between uses on a well-draining soap dish so it can dry completely. This significantly extends its lifespan.
Does this shampoo also work against hair loss, like the other Exo-Grow products?
Yes, the bar contains the same Sophora Japonica and Edelweiss extracts plus peptides that support the hair follicle. For those experiencing both gray hair and early hair loss, this is a two-sided solution in one product.
