GalHueShield HCS is a powerful UV absorbing moiety. It prevents damage to hair due to disulphide cleaving by harmful UV radiations. GalHueShield HCS provides better colour protection as compared to the other available hair color protectors and conditioners. GalHueShield HCS shows exceptional affinity for the hair. Due to its cationic nature, it gets adsorbed on the hair surface and smoothens disrupted cuticle thus improving sensorial properties of hair.
