Zenagen, the professional haircare brand known for science-driven solutions, has announced the launch of ZENERGY, a scalp-focused, daily performance shampoo engineered to deliver fuller-looking hair through advanced cleansing and strengthening technology.

Designed to transform the role of the everyday shampoo, ZENERGY addresses an often-overlooked step in haircare routines: the daily wash. While many shampoos focus primarily on cleansing, ZENERGY is formulated to reenergize the scalp, reinforce strands and support the appearance of thicker, more voluminous hair with consistent use.

At the center of ZENERGY’s innovation is Microfoam Technology, a blend of four surfactant systems that creates a finer, more controlled lather. This technology helps remove oil and buildup effectively while maintaining the balance needed for daily cleansing.

ZENERGY delivers a deep clean while remaining gentle enough for regular use, supported by a balanced pH range of 5.5–6.5 to help protect both the scalp and hair. This is a refreshing, stark contrast from most traditional clarifying products.

The formula combines targeted ingredients selected to support hair performance from the scalp to the strand. Liposomal Encapsulated Caffeine and Biotin support the hair cycle at the scalp, while botanical ingredients contribute to a balanced scalp environment. Amino Acids work to reinforce and strengthen each strand, helping hair appear healthier and more resilient over time.

Third-party instrumental testing highlights ZENERGY’s performance benefits. Results showed a 121% increase in volume after one use, with a maintained 114% increase after eight hours. Additional testing demonstrated a 70% reduction in hair breakage and a 48% reduction in combing friction on damaged hair. The shampoo also helped control frizz for up to 24 hours in high humidity conditions, showcasing its ability to deliver more than a traditional cleansing experience.

“ZENERGY was created to answer one of the questions we’ve heard from customers for years: ‘What should I use between system days?’” says Jared Reynolds, founder and CEO of Zenagen. “We wanted to develop a daily shampoo that didn’t just cleanse, but actively supported the scalp and improved how hair looks and feels over time. ZENERGY works synergistically with our existing systems while also standing on its own as an approachable daily solution for those seeking fuller-looking, healthier-looking hair.”

The ZENERGY Thickening + Volumizing Shampoo is SLS/SLES-free, vegan, cruelty-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, and color-safe. In short: your best hair day is right around the corner.
