Technical Details & Test Data

Restructuring

SHAFT LONGITUDINAL ANALYSIS
KERASHAFT Q - Restructuring
Kerashaft Q shows anti static features that improve the hair combability
The control sample hair surface after bleaching treatment shows uneven weft with fiberisation and non overlapped crusting Kerashaft Q improves the surface with significant regularization of the cuticle closure
SHAFT TRANSVERSAL ANALYSIS WITH LIQUID NITROGEN CONTRAST
KERASHAFT Q - Restructuring - 1

The control sample after bleaching treatment shows damaged and non consistent filling of the cortex Kerashaft Q improves the cortex and the peri-medular area filling giving a highly organized and tidy structure
SULFUR CONTENT MEASUREMENT BY EDX MICROANALYSIS
KERASHAFT Q - Restructuring - 2

Hair tresses were treated with water solutions containing a market benchmark keratin vs Kerashaft Q concentrated @ Kerashaft Q delivers significant amount of sulfur on the hair , +49.2% more than the benchmark

Polarized Light Microscopy

KERASHAFT Q - Polarized Light Microscopy
Compared to Keratin, Kerashaft Q @ 5% shows more effective restructuring action at cortex and perimedular area its crystallography follows the same behavior of healthy hair

Colorimeter Analysis

KERASHAFT Q - Colorimeter Analysis
Kerashaft Q @5% treatment after straightening increases hair luminosity with a Δ value of + 4.27
The benchmark keratin showed values of + 0.44

Moisturizing & Voluming

HAIR WEIGHT CALCULATION BY IR THERMOBALANCE
KERASHAFT Q - Moisturizing & Voluming

The hair weight loss difference from t0 to t1 indicates the level of moisture captured given by active ingredients on the shaft
Higher starting mass and higher loss weight values indicate a more efficient moisturization power
Kerashaft Q @5% treated hair loses the same mass as the benchmark keratin treated hair , suggesting a comparable imbibition power and volumizing potential
