Features
600 mL Large Pump Bottle: Our 600 mL bottle comes with a built-in pump, so you dispense one press at a time with one hand. It is the large size of Proqualite Straight Make Shampoo.
Made for 3 Hair Concerns: Frizz, Waviness and Spread: We built this shampoo to calm frizz, waviness and spread, so hair looks sleek. The orange badge on the bottle says it clearly: for frizzy hair, snaps into place on waking.
2 Silk and Amino Acid Smoothers: Hydrolyzed Silk and Arginine Derivative: Hydrolyzed silk is silk protein broken into tiny pieces. Alongside an arginine-based ingredient, which comes from an amino acid, it helps hair feel smoother and softer.
2 Conditioning Polymers: Polyquaternium-7 and Polyquaternium-10: These polymers carry a light positive charge, so they cling to hair. They help cut tangles and static and make combing easier.
PEG-12 Dimethicone Smoothing Agent: PEG-12 dimethicone is a silicone-based conditioning ingredient. It coats each strand so hair slides past itself with less friction and feels smoother.
2-Part Moisture-Blocking, Hair-Supple Component: Isostearoyl hydrolyzed collagen and isopentyldiol work together as our moisture-blocking, hair-supple component. It is built to help hair resist humid-day puffiness and stay soft and flexible.
Glycerin Listed 3rd in the Ingredient Declaration: Glycerin is a humectant, meaning it pulls water toward hair. It sits right after water and our cleansing base, to help hair feel moisturized and less dry-looking.
Packed Size 21.8 x 8 x 6.2 cm, 700 g, Made in Japan: Each bottle ships at 21.8 x 8 x 6.2 cm and 700 g, so you can plan your shower shelf space. Our company is based in Tokyo and the shampoo is made in Japan.
Benefits
Calm morning frizz so your hair looks sleek: We made Proqualite Straight Make Shampoo for frizzy, wavy hair. Its smoothing formula is designed to calm frizz, waviness and spread, so when you step out of the shower you see hair that looks sleek and feels under control.
Wake up to hair that looks tidy and ready: The badge on our bottle says it plainly: for frizzy hair, snaps into place on waking. Our formula smooths hair in the shower, so on busy mornings you spend less time fighting bedhead and more time getting out the door feeling put together.
Keep humid days from puffing up your hair: Our formula includes a moisture-blocking, hair-supple component made with isostearoyl hydrolyzed collagen and isopentyldiol. It is designed to help hair resist puffiness on damp, humid days, so your style keeps its shape and your hair stays soft and flexible.
Silky, soft hair from hydrolyzed silk in every wash: We add hydrolyzed silk, which is silk protein broken into tiny pieces, as our hair-moisturizing ingredient. Each wash gives hair a smoother, silkier feel, and you notice the soft touch every time you run your fingers through it.
Made for one job: frizzy, wavy hair: Instead of a general damage-care formula, we built this shampoo around one concern. Three conditioning ingredients, Polyquaternium-7, Polyquaternium-10 and PEG-12 dimethicone, help smooth and coat each strand, so wavy hair looks more aligned and less tangled.
One 600 mL pump bottle for easy, steady washing: The 600 mL pump bottle gives you one press-and-go dose at a time, so you can dispense with one hand and keep the other free. It is a large size that stays ready on your shower shelf, wash after wash.
A fine lather and a green floral scent: We include an amino-acid-based cleansing ingredient that builds a fine lather, so the shampoo spreads easily through hair with each pump. A green floral scent follows you through the wash, turning a quick shower into a small daily reset.
Made in Japan by our Tokyo-based team: Proqualite Straight Make Shampoo is made in Japan, and our company is based in Tokyo. We formulated this 600 mL shampoo specifically for frizzy, wavy hair, so every bottle carries one clear purpose: hair that looks sleek and stays manageable.
How to Use
Wet your hair thoroughly with warm water.
Press the pump to dispense shampoo into your palm.

Who Is This For
The Wavy-Hair Smoother: You wake up, look in the mirror, and your waves have spread out overnight. You've probably tried shampoos that only cleanse and leave hair to fend for itself against friction and static. We made this shampoo for exactly that moment. Along with a cleansing base, it brings hydrolyzed silk, a collagen derivative, PEG-12 dimethicone and two cationic polymers that coat each strand and smooth the cuticle, so hair looks more aligned and less frizzy. The 600 mL pump bottle stays by the shower for daily use, easy to share with the whole household. If you want your wavy hair to look sleek and feel easy to manage, this shampoo was designed with you in mind.
Product Story
Japanese shampoo makers have spent decades working on one stubborn problem: hair that puffs up and spreads out in humid weather. Humid air and damp mornings push hair out of shape, and that is nothing you did wrong. From our base in Tokyo, we shaped Proqualite Straight Make Shampoo around three concerns: frizz, waviness and spread. We paired hydrolyzed silk, a moisture-blocking, hair-supple component and conditioning polymers in a 600 mL pump bottle made in Japan. Today it is ready for your shower, built to help wavy hair look sleek and snap into place when you wake up.
