Hair Cosmetics

  • Chapter
Hair Growth and Disorders

Abstract

• Hair shampoos are composed of synthetic detergents designed to remove sebum and environmental dirt from each individual hair shaft without decreasing the cosmetic appearance of the hair.

• Hair conditioners are designed to improve hair manageability, decrease hair static electricity, add luster, prevent UV-induced photodamage, and enhance styling ease.

• Hair styling aids are intended to maintain the hair in a fashionable arrangement while improving the quality of the hair fibers.

• Hair dyes can lighten or darken an existing hair color while covering canities in a temporary, semipermanent, or permanent manner.

• Permanent hair waving repositions hair keratin disulfide bonds in a new curly conformation while hair straightening repositions hair keratin disulfide bonds in a new straight position.
