Matrix is one of the most trusted professional hair care brands in the world, known for delivering salon-quality results at an accessible price point. At ProHair.ca, we carry the complete Matrix Total Results collection — over 50 products spanning colour protection, volume, frizz control, bond repair, curl definition, and professional styling.
This guide breaks down every Matrix line we carry, the key technologies behind each one, and how to match the right products to your hair type and concerns.
The Matrix Difference: Targeted Solutions, Professional Results
Matrix takes a targeted approach to hair care. Rather than one-size-fits-all formulas, each Total Results line is engineered with specific active ingredients to solve a particular hair concern. Color Obsessed uses antioxidants for fade protection, High Amplify uses protein for volume, Mega Sleek uses shea butter for smoothing — and every formula is clinically tested and salon-proven. The result is professional performance at a price point that makes daily use realistic.
Line-by-Line Breakdown
Color Obsessed — Colour Protection
Color Obsessed is Matrix’s colour-care line, using antioxidant technology to prevent fade and protect vibrancy in colour-treated hair. The range includes shampoo and conditioner for daily use. The So Silver purple toning shampoo is part of this line — it neutralizes brassiness and yellow tones in blonde, silver, and highlighted hair.
Best for: Colour-treated hair that needs fade protection and vibrancy maintenance. Add So Silver if you have blonde or silver tones that go brassy.
High Amplify — Volume for Fine Hair
High Amplify uses a protein-infused formula to lift fine, flat hair from root to tip. The shampoo and conditioner add body without weighing hair down. The Wonder Boost Root Lifter is the standout product — a targeted spray that gives instant volume at the roots. The Root Up volumizing wash is an alternate entry point for root-focused cleansing.
Best for: Fine, flat hair that needs body, root lift, and lasting volume without heaviness.
Mega Sleek — Anti-Frizz Smoothing
Mega Sleek is built around shea butter for smoothing and humidity resistance. The shampoo and conditioner tame frizz and smooth the cuticle, while the Iron Smoother leave-in spray provides heat protection up to 230°C and additional frizz control during heat styling.
Best for: Frizzy, coarse, or unruly hair that needs smoothing, humidity resistance, and heat protection.
Unbreak My Blonde — Bond Repair for Lightened Hair
Unbreak My Blonde is Matrix’s bond-strengthening line specifically for bleached and over-processed blonde hair. The shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in treatment work together to rebuild the internal bonds weakened by lightening services, reducing breakage and restoring elasticity.
Best for: Bleached, highlighted, or chemically lightened hair that feels weak, brittle, or prone to breakage.
A Curl Can Dream — Curl Definition
A Curl Can Dream is Matrix’s curl-defining line, formulated with manuka honey for moisture and definition. The range includes shampoo, conditioner, a lightweight gel for wavy and curly types, and a rich butter cream for tighter curl patterns and coily hair.
Best for: Wavy, curly, and coily hair types that need hydration, definition, and frizz control without crunchiness.
Professional Styling
Matrix’s styling range includes the Fixer Finishing Hairspray for flexible hold, Style Fixer Texturizing Spray for undone texture, and Iron Smoother for heat protection. These are the same products used by stylists in the salon.
Best for: Anyone who wants professional-level hold, texture, and heat protection in their daily styling routine.
