Hydra Volumizing Shampoo 1 L

Professional volumizing shampoo for curly and dense coats

Hydra Groomers Volumizing Shampoo is a specialized shampoo developed specifically for professional pet grooming use, providing maximum volume, perfect texture and long-lasting shapeability through a hydrolyzed keratin and wheat protein complex. The formula is particularly effective for dense, curly, primitive-type double-coated breeds where volume and structure are critical for professional appearance.

Hydrolyzed keratin – structure building and strengthening effect

Hydrolyzed keratin is a low molecular weight protein that deeply penetrates the hair shaft structure and rebuilds damaged areas from within. Keratin is the natural building block of hair shafts, so its application restores damaged hair structure, fills pores and smooths surfaces. This is particularly important for frequently trimmed or clipped breeds where mechanical stress heavily burdens the coat. Keratin treatment strengthens hair shafts, reduces breakage and splitting while providing elasticity and vitality.

Wheat protein – volume and texture building

Hydrolyzed wheat protein (Cocodimonium Hydroxypropyl Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein) is a protein complex produced with special technology that adheres to the hair shaft surface forming a thin coating. This coating makes each individual hair shaft appear thicker and stronger to the touch without making the coat heavy or sticky. Wheat protein increases the distance between hair shafts, giving the coat a lifted, dimensional effect. This is essential for show grooming work where maximum volume is critical for scoring.

Optimized for dense and curly coats

The shampoo is specifically optimized for the following breeds: Poodles of all varieties (toy, miniature, standard) – for creating perfect pompoms and rosettes. Bichon Frisé – for achieving the characteristic cloud-like appearance. Chow-Chow – for maximum volume of the dense, standing double coat. Spitz breeds (Pomeranian, Finnish, Japanese) – for achieving premium show finish. Bolognese, Havanese and other small curly breeds. Persian and Exotic Shorthair cats – for creating volume needed for ideal facial expression.

4:1 concentrated formula – intensive active ingredient content

The 4:1 dilution ratio is one of the most concentrated formulas in the Hydra product family, meaning one liter of shampoo equals 5 liters of ready-to-use product. This higher concentration is necessary to deliver sufficient amounts of keratin and wheat protein into the coat in a single wash. The concentrated active ingredient content ensures visible, measurable volume increase even after the first application.

Structure improvement and shapeability

Regular use of the shampoo improves the overall structure of the coat. Frizz-prone, hard-to-manage coats become more manageable and smoother without losing their characteristic curl or volume. Hair shafts strengthen and become more elastic, better maintaining their shape after clipping, trimming or styling. This is particularly important for show preparation where the coat must maintain perfect shape for several hours.

Shine with natural soft touch

The keratin and wheat protein combination provides natural, healthy shine to the coat. This is not artificial silicone-based shine but natural light refraction resulting from smoothing the hair shaft surface. The coat remains soft and silky to the touch while maintaining desired texture and volume. Balance is achieved between cleansing, conditioning and volumizing.

Hibiscus, goji berry, tonka bean and pomegranate fragrance

The shampoo features a sophisticated, multi-layered fragrance. Hibiscus flower and fruity notes provide freshness, goji berry brings subtly sweet, antioxidant-rich character, tonka bean provides warm, vanilla-like base notes while pomegranate adds slightly tart, vibrant accents. This fragrance composition is long-lasting but not too strong, doesn't disturb the animal's sensitive sense of smell yet leaves a pleasant freshness behind.

Fast drying and styling preparation

The formula's easy rinsing and the thin protein layer building on hair shafts facilitate and accelerate the drying process. Volume increase is noticeable during brushing and can be further enhanced during high-velocity drying. This reduces styling time requirements and heat exposure, protecting the coat from damage.

Application protocol for professionals

Preparation: Thorough brushing, matt removal as needed. Complete wetting with warm water.

Dilution: 1:4 ratio (1 part shampoo + 4 parts lukewarm water). Professional mixing bottle recommended.

Application: Even application to entire coat, with special attention to areas requiring volume (head, neck, tail). Thorough working through to skin, especially for double coats. 2-3 minute contact time for maximum protein absorption.

Rinsing: Thorough water removal. IMPORTANT: Over-rinsing may reduce volumizing effect, so rinse only until water runs clear.

Conditioning: Use of Hydra Intense Repair Volumizing Mask recommended for maximum volume and perfect texture.

Drying and styling: After towel drying, use high-velocity dryer. Line brushing building from bottom up. Volumizing effect increases further during drying.

Treatment frequency: For show preparation, 2-3 days before the show. For regular care, every 2-3 weeks.

Important application notes

Diluted product use: Use diluted shampoo within 48 hours for optimal efficacy.

Age: Recommended for animals older than 16 weeks. For puppies, Hydra Extra Soft Facial Shampoo is recommended.

Combinability: Excellent results when combined with Hydra Volumizing Mask and Hydra Expert Volumizing Mousse.

Professional tips

For show grooming, use the shampoo during bathing immediately before the show to achieve maximum volume. For very fine, thin-haired individuals, 1:6 dilution may be sufficient. For color enhancement, combine with Hydra Whitening Shampoo for white individuals (first whitening, then volumizing). For extremely frizzy coats, first use Hydra Silky Smooth Shampoo to smooth structure, then Volumizing as second wash.
