Combining the Super Lamella Shampoo, EX Repair Treatment, and Lamella Milk leave-in, the set works as a cohesive system to cleanse, repair, and protect damaged hair at every stage of the routine, from the shower through to styling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt the heart of all three products is Kao's proprietary Lamellar Platform Technology — an innovative delivery system that stores active care ingredients within a lamellar (layered) structure built into the formula itself. This architecture ensures that repair ingredients are carried evenly throughout the hair and deposited precisely where they are needed, rather than sitting on the surface. The result is a level of ingredient penetration and effectiveness that conventional hair care formulas cannot match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eEach product in the set is built around Kao's five essential ingredients for beautiful hair — identified through decades of scientific research as the combination most critical to hair health and repair. These are hydrolysed keratin (wool), which strengthens and restores hair from within; Ceramide α (Kao's proprietary bismethoxypropylamidoisodocosane), which repairs and seals the hair's natural moisture barrier; malic acid, which smooths the cuticle surface and boosts shine; lanolin fatty acid, which deeply nourishes and softens; and fatty acid glyceride α from olive fruit oil, which restores lustre and vitality to dry, damaged strands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuper Lamella Shampoo 400ml\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe shampoo opens the routine with a serum-like texture that transforms into a rich, cushiony lather on contact with water, spreading the lamellar care complex evenly through every strand as you wash. It cleanses thoroughly without stripping, leaving the hair feeling noticeably softer and more manageable from the very first use. The formula is further enriched with hydrolysed silk, ceramide NG, hyaluronic acid, squalane, jojoba seed oil, and gamma-docosalactone for added moisture and smoothness. Entirely free from sulphates, parabens, silicones, and synthetic colorants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEX Repair Treatment 220g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eApplied after shampooing to damp hair, the EX Repair Treatment delivers a concentrated dose of repair directly to the mid-lengths and ends — the areas most susceptible to colour, heat, and daily mechanical damage. The lamellar structure within the treatment wraps each strand in a protective, moisture-locking layer that visibly improves elasticity, shine, and resilience with consistent use. Rinse thoroughly after application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLamella Milk 6g\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe finishing step in the routine, the Lamella Milk is a lightweight leave-in treatment applied to towel-dried hair that requires no rinsing. Using the same lamellar delivery system as the rest of the range, it forms a protective layer over the hair's surface to guard against heat damage from styling tools, friction, frizz caused by humidity and UV exposure, and dryness. Despite its nourishing performance, the formula is specifically designed to avoid stickiness even when applied root to tip. Apply 2–4 pumps for short hair, 4–6 for medium, or 6–8 for long hair, working through from roots to ends until the hair glides smoothly through the fingers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAll three products share the range's signature refined bergamot and daphne fragrance — a sophisticated, understated scent that elevates the experience of the routine without overpowering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSet Contents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Super Lamella Shampoo 400ml · EX Repair Treatment 220g · Lamella Milk 6g\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE ANSWER by Kao Hair Care Set | Super Lamella Shampoo 400ml + EX Repair Treatment 220g + Lamella Milk 6g | Japanese Haircare | Lamellar Technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Answer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53067843371336,"sku":null,"price":39.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0921\/4731\/9112\/files\/the-answer-super-lamella-shampoo-400ml-ex-gloss-treatment-220g-lamella-milk-6g-1700424_1080x_jpg.webp?v=1778333219","url":"https:\/\/thelittlejapanshop.com\/products\/the-answer-by-kao-super-lamella-shampoo-400ml-ex-repair-220g-lamella-milk-6g","provider":"The Little Japan Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
