What’s in this gunk that makes your hair so sleek and shiny?
To understand all this, you’ll first have to understand what conditioner is made of:
What is conditioner:
- Conditioner is made up of several components, but let’s just keep it simple and say it contains positively charged ingredients. These bind to the hair, which is negatively charged.
- Shampoo, unlike conditioner, is negatively charged as well, thus effective at stripping your hair of dirt and natural oils.
- The conditioner forms a kind of envelope around the hair, protecting it. At the same time, a small amount of acid in the conditioner makes the cuticle layers fall tightly against each other. This occurs because acid has a lot of hydrogen ions, which help strengthen the hydrogen bonds.
- When you rinse out the conditioner in your hair, a tiny bit of it stays behind to coat your head. This adds weight, makes your hair a little easier to comb, and prevents static electricity from building up.
- The conditioner also has other ingredients such as perfumes, oils, and silicones that give each brand its individuality; however, the basic process is still the same.
- Also, there are several conditioners available in the market – dry hair conditioner, colored hair conditioner, conditioner for damaged hair, curly hair conditioner, etc.
