Keratec PEP
Moisturizing and
Conditioning Peptide for Hair |
|
Proteins and peptides have long been used
in hair and skin care applications. In hair care, they are often used to
improve moisturization, manageability, and the look and feel of the hair and
they are appealing from a marketing perspective as they are naturally found in
skin and hair. |
|
Derived from wool fibers shorn from New
Zealand sheep, Keratec PEP is a "semi-reactive" keratin protein
designed to moisturize and condition the hair. Containing an unusually
high level of cystine, it is inherently charged, giving it semi-reactivity in
oxidative/reductive-type environments; therefore, it can bond with the hair fiber,
providing permanent conditioning. As such, it is an ideal protein for use
in hair color, bleaching or permanent wave systems and is suitable for pre- and
post-treatment products. |
