Product Description

The wash steps that go beyond cleansing and conditioning

Most people treat shampoo and conditioner as the basics, but this Essential Care Duo is doing more than just cleansing and conditioning. The Hydrating Shampoo is sulfate-free, gently removing buildup without stripping the hair's moisture barrier, while the Smoothing Conditioner seals the cuticle and locks softness in. 

For deeper repair, check out the Elevated Care Duo.

How the Essential Care Duo delivers results
The Hydrating Shampoo and Smoothing Conditioner are powered by Xtovia's three proprietary technologies, working with every wash to strengthen, smooth, and protect:

  • NanoEncapX™ reinforces hair’s internal bond structure to increase hair strength
  • CutiCloneX™ repairs the cuticle surface for a visibly smoother, shiner hair fibre
  • LipidMimicX™ restores hair’s natural protective barrier to seal & protect
Benefits - The Xtovia Difference
  • 76% stronger hair*
  • 96% breakage protection*
  • 72 hrs frizz-control and smoother texture*
  • Soft, deeply hydrated
  • Naturally lustrous

*When used as a part of the 4-step Hair Revival System

What this feels like, over time

  • A reduced urge to “fix” your hair as it starts behaving beautifully on its own
  • Hair is easier to manage and holds its shape better through the day
  • Less breakage and hair that can handle more, every day
  • A quiet sense of confidence and joy in how your hair looks and feels
How to use

1. Apply 1–2 pumps of the Hydrating Shampoo to wet hair, gently cleanse scalp and strands, and rinse thoroughly.

2. Squeeze out excess water, then apply 1–2 coin-sized amounts of the Smoothing Conditioner along the lengths and ends. Leave on for at least 2 minutes and rinse thoroughly.

Pro Tip: The Shampoo is sulphate-free yet ultra-foaming, so a little goes a long way. For best results, use this duo on every wash day.

YOUR QUESTIONS, ANSWERED
FAQs
Do the Shampoo and Conditioner work if I skip the Spray and Mask?
Yes. The Shampoo and Conditioner work as a complete duo and deliver real results on their own. Adding the Spray and Mask as a pre-wash step takes repair deeper, so if your hair is more damaged, you may notice more refined results with the full routine.
How often should I use the Xtovia Shampoo and Conditioner?
Use the Shampoo and Conditioner on every wash day. They are formulated for regular use and work best as a consistent part of your routine. The Shampoo cleanses without being harsh, so the lengths do not feel overly stripped during washing. The Conditioner smooths the cuticle for frizz-free hair after wash.
How much Shampoo should I use?
Use 1–2 pumps for short to medium-length hair. For longer or thicker hair, a little more may be needed. The Shampoo spreads and lathers easily, so starting small usually works best. Focus on the scalp, then let the lather run through the lengths as you rinse.
How much Conditioner should I use?
That depends on your hair length, density, and texture. Start with a small amount and increase only as needed so the hair is evenly coated without feeling overloaded. With Xtovia, more is not always better. The goal is balanced, consistent care.
Will the Shampoo fade my hair colour?
No. The Shampoo is sulphate-free and cleans without being harsh on coloured hair. If you have had a recent colour service, follow any waiting period advised by your stylist before starting a new wash routine.
How should I use the Xtovia Shampoo and Conditioner if I have an oily scalp?
If you have an oily scalp, work the Shampoo lather into the scalp with gentle, firm movements to lift buildup effectively. Avoid applying the Conditioner close to the scalp and use a small amount from mid-lengths to ends only.
Will the Conditioner weigh my hair down?
No. The Conditioner is formulated to deliver smoothness and frizz control without heaviness. Fine hair types can use a slightly smaller amount or focus application on the mid-lengths and ends, avoiding the roots.
Will the Conditioner cause buildup on hair?
Not with proper rinsing. The formula is designed to smooth and condition withou leaving a heavy residue. Rinse thoroughly after each use to prevent accumulation over time.
Does the Conditioner protect against humidity?
Yes. The Conditioner helps limit the effects of humidity on the hair. Used at the end of the routine, it smooths the hair surface after washing, which reduces how easily moisture from the air disrupts the lengths. Hair tends to stay more settled and controlled, even in humid conditions.
Can I use the Xtovia Shampoo and Conditioner with my existing haircare products?
Yes. Xtovia fits easily into most existing haircare routines. For best results, follow the Xtovia routine as directed, then use your usual leave-ins, serums, or styling products post-wash.
Can I oil my hair before the Xtovia routine?
On days you are not doing the pre-wash steps (Spray + Mask), you can oil your hair as usual. Use the Xtovia Shampoo to gently cleanse the oil from your scalp and strands. If hair has been heavily oiled, a second light cleanse can help, followed by the Conditioner to finish.
