How it works
The Damage Therapy No-Wash Treatment E is a 250ml hair treatment, used after shampooing, on hair towelled to damp rather than dripping. The active it is built around is Menthol, named fourteenth on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Oligopeptide-3, Oligopeptide-1 and Biotin, so the active is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Menthol stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the hair treatment format rather than by the list alone. This is the Original Korean Formula, the hair treatment Growus sells in Korea, Menthol and all.
Key benefits
- Menthol, the active this hair treatment is built around
- Oligopeptide-3 and Oligopeptide-1 on the same list, peptides
- Biotin on the same list, a vitamin
- Rice Ferment Filtrate on the same list, a ferment
- Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate and Bifida Ferment Lysate further down the same list
- Lactobacillus Ferment and Lactococcus Ferment further down the same list
Key actives
Mentholactive
Menthol is the cooling compound in mint. It acts on the nerve receptor that also answers to cold, which is why skin feels cool without any change in temperature. On this hair treatment's own ingredient list it is named fourteenth.
Oligopeptide-3peptide
Oligopeptide-3 is another short synthetic peptide sequence. Numbered oligopeptides that sit next to each other on a label are separate sequences, not doses of one ingredient. It is named seventy-fifth on this hair treatment's list, alongside Menthol.
Oligopeptide-1peptide
Oligopeptide-1 is a short synthetic peptide. Oligo means the chain is short without the name fixing its length, which is why oligopeptides appear in blends where several sequences work together. It is named seventy-sixth on this hair treatment's list, alongside Menthol.
Biotinvitamin
Biotin is vitamin B7. In skincare it is a conditioning vitamin, most often in hair and scalp formulas. The panel names it seventeenth on this hair treatment's list, beside Menthol.
Rice Ferment Filtrateferment
Rice Ferment Filtrate is the clear liquid from fermented rice, the same process that makes sake. It carries amino acids, sugars and organic acids and is used as a conditioning ferment. The panel names it twentieth on this hair treatment's list, beside Menthol.
Where does this hair treatment go in my routine?
After shampooing, on hair towelled to damp rather than dripping. Anything thinner than a hair treatment goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Menthol and not three changes at once.
Is this the Korean-market hair treatment or a US version?
The Korean-market one, Menthol and all. We match this hair treatment to its Korean barcode before it reaches the shelf, which is the check that tells you which market release you are holding.
Does this hair treatment contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Citronellol, Eugenol, Fragrance and Geraniol. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this hair treatment is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Menthol?
Oligopeptide-3, Oligopeptide-1 and Biotin. The order they are printed in on this hair treatment's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Menthol sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Rice Ferment Filtrate, Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate and Bifida Ferment Lysate.

How to use
- Use the Damage Therapy No-Wash Treatment EX after shampooing, on hair towelled to damp rather than dripping.
- Shake well before use. Spray on hair when hair is slightly damp with no excess moisture after shower. You can use your hands to help spread and apply products evenly on hair.
- Shampoo first, this second. Leave it for the time the pack gives, then rinse.
- Once or twice a week. Do not work it into the roots; a treatment weighs down the one part of the hair that does not need it.
Worth knowing
- Patch test this hair treatment on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Menthol on the list.
- This list names Citronellol, Eugenol and Fragrance, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
