Composio Hair Care: CMC and CX Shampoos and Treatments for Colour and Perm Care

Composio Hair Care: CMC and CX Shampoos and Treatments for Colour and Perm Care

Inside Composio Hair Care: DEMI’s CMC and CX Lines for Colour and Perm Styles

Composio Hair Care was developed from DEMI Cosmetics’ Composio pre- and post-treatment range, which combines hair science with DEMI’s proprietary Complex fixation technology. The name Composio comes from “composite”, meaning something made up of several elements.

This guide focuses on Composio Hair Care, the shampoos and treatments in the Composio range: what the CMC and CX lines are for, the features both lines share, their featured ingredients, and how to choose between the regular and Deep treatments.

Composio Hair Care CMC and CX shampoos and treatments by DEMI Cosmetics

Where Composio Hair Care Fits in the Composio Range

Composio is made up of three lines, each with a different role. Each line can be chosen on its own to suit the service and the client.

Composio / ComposioPro
Pre- and post-treatments used before and after colour and perm services. They are not colour or perm agents themselves; they are designed to help salons respond to a wider range of damage and techniques.
Composio EQ
A system treatment for the salon, with take-home EQ Masks for continuing care between visits.
Composio Hair Care
Home-care shampoos and treatments designed to help colour and perm styles stay beautiful for longer. This is the line covered in this article.

What Is Composio Hair Care?

Composio Hair Care is designed not only to care for damage, but to help clients enjoy their colour and perm results for longer, supporting shine, colour, curls and straight styles. DEMI presents it as a professional range offered to clients through a stylist’s counselling.

The range is divided into two lines, each linked to a salon service:

CMC line
For colour-treated hair. Designed to help colour last longer, with a focus on manageability and shine.
CX line
For permed or chemically straightened hair. Designed to help curls and straight styles last longer, with a focus on elasticity and shine.

Features Shared by Both Lines

Care ingredients
CMC care ingredients in the CMC line and cortex care ingredients in the CX line, matched to each service.
pH control
After colour or perm services, the hair tends to lean alkaline and the cuticle is open. With daily use, Composio Hair Care is designed to bring the hair back towards its natural weak acidity, helping the cuticle close and reducing the outflow of CMC and cortex components.
Shine ingredient
Hydrolysed conchiolin, obtained from the conchiolin protein found in pearl oyster shells. It helps protect against damage and adds shine to coloured and permed hair.
Gentle cleansing
Silicone-free shampoos that use only amphoteric and amino acid-based surfactants as cleansing agents, gently cleansing the scalp and hair.
Fragrance
Tender floral: a rich floral with rose, plus the sweetness of fruits such as peach.

The CMC Line: Care for Colour-Treated Hair

Hair colour dyes settle not only in the cortex but also in the CMC. After a colour service, dyes tend to flow out together with CMC components, which can make colour fade. The CMC line replenishes CMC-like components to help keep colour-treated hair looking beautiful for longer.

Composio CMC line featured ingredients: hydrolysed eggshell membrane, glutamic acid, ceramide 2, hydrolysed collagen, sodium hyaluronate and hydrolysed hyaluronic acid

The CX Line: Care for Permed or Chemically Straightened Hair

In the Composio series, “CX” stands for cortex. Perms work on the cortex, and afterwards cortex components can flow out, making curls and straight styles more likely to lose their shape. The CX line replenishes cortex-like components to help curls and straight styles stay beautiful for longer.

Composio CX line featured ingredients: hydrolysed eggshell membrane, hydrolysed keratin, sericin, sodium hyaluronate and hydrolysed hyaluronic acid

Repair Treatment or Repair Treatment Deep?

The CMC and CX lines each offer two treatments, and the difference between them is the same in both lines:

Repair Treatment
A glossy, smooth finish. Includes sodium hyaluronate, a natural moisturising ingredient with high water retention.
Repair Treatment Deep
For hair that tends to feel dry, with a glossy, moisturised finish. Includes hydrolysed hyaluronic acid, a low-molecular-weight form of hyaluronic acid that penetrates into the hair to provide moisture.

Choose according to how dry the client’s hair tends to feel and the finish they prefer.
