Sunsilk Power Shot Treatment Strong Lengths Beautiful, long, healthy hair 20ml

Product Overview

Sunsilk Power Shot is a concentrated treatment sold in a 20ml single-use shot rather than a tub. The idea is simple: a much richer dose than an everyday conditioner, used once, straight after shampooing.

This is the Strong Lengths variant, aimed at long hair. The problem with growing hair long is rarely growth — it is that the oldest few inches have been through years of washing, brushing and heat and give up before they get the chance to be long. A treatment that reduces breakage is what actually preserves length.

Key Benefits

• Intensive conditioning in a single 20ml dose
• Helps hair resist the breakage that costs you length
• Leaves hair softer and easier to comb
• Adds smoothness and shine to long hair
• Sachet size — try it before buying a full tub

Key Features

• 20ml single-use treatment shot
• Strong Lengths variant for long hair
• Rinse-out, used after shampoo
• Sunsilk hair care range

How to Use a Hair Mask

1. Shampoo first and squeeze the hair out. A mask cannot get into hair that is already full of water.
2. Work it through the mid-lengths and ends. Keep it off the scalp — this is for the hair, and roots do not need it.
3. Leave it the time the pack says, usually 3 to 10 minutes. Longer does not do more; hair takes up what it can and the rest rinses away.
4. Rinse thoroughly with cool water. Anything left behind weighs hair down and makes it look greasy by the next day.
5. Use it once or twice a week, in place of your conditioner rather than as well as it.

Growing Hair Long — What Actually Helps

• Handle wet hair gently. It stretches when wet and that is when most breakage happens — use a wide-tooth comb from the ends upwards.
• Trim the ends regularly. Counter-intuitive, but a split travels up the shaft and costs you more length than the trim did.
• Keep heat down. Length is lost at the ends, and the ends are the oldest, driest, most heat-exposed part of the hair.
• Tie hair loosely. Tight ponytails in the same spot every day cause breakage exactly where the band sits.

Patch Test Before the First Use

Do this once, before the first full application, and it takes two minutes. Put a small amount behind the ear or on the inner elbow, leave it for 24 hours, and do not use the product if the skin reddens, itches or stings. A reaction on a coin-sized patch is a nuisance; the same reaction across a whole scalp is not.

Repeat the test if you have reacted to a hair product before, or if your scalp is currently broken, sunburnt or irritated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is one sachet enough for my hair?

20ml covers short to medium hair comfortably. Very long or very thick hair may want two, or use one on the ends only where it matters most.

How often should I use it?

Follow the pack. As a rule, deep treatments are once or twice a week, leave-in serums and oils can be daily in small amounts, and anything with an active ingredient should be built up gradually rather than started at full frequency.

Will it suit my hair type?

Rich masks, butters and heavy oils suit thick, coarse, curly or chemically treated hair. Fine or oily hair usually does better with a lighter product used only on the ends — too much weight and it goes flat. If you are unsure, use less and see how the hair behaves before the next wash.

How should I store it?

Somewhere cool and dry, out of direct sunlight, with the cap closed. A bathroom shelf away from the shower is fine; the windowsill is not. Heat and light break down oils and actives faster than anything else.
