If you have dry, very dry, chemically treated or damaged hair, or know someone who does, then read on. If not, the Shu Uemura The Art of Hair Ultimate Reset Collection products aren't likely going to offer many benefits to your hair, but if you have any of these hair issues to contend with, then this is a range that should be on your radar. It is undoubtedly expensive, as is the case with ultra-luxurious brands, but it has made quite a difference in the appearance of my dry, naturally curly color-treated hair.

Rice Extract is the key ingredient used in the Shu Uemura Art of Hair Ultimate Reset Collection, and according to Shu Uemura Art of Hair,

For centuries, Japanese women have looked to rice for its immense beautifying powers. Referred to as “nuka biji”, or “beautiful by the rice” Japanese women cherish rice’s ability to hydrate and protect the hair. Enriched with minerals, antioxidants, and B and E vitamins, rice is renowned for its protecting and moisture retaining properties. Harvested in Hyogo, Japan, our rice of the highest polished quality, raised by an eco-friendly duck-cultivation system which maintains purity and ensures maximum natural benefits.
