Product Highlights

Protect and Repair Strands from The Sun

  • UVA and UVB light hits the protective cuticle of your hair when your strands are exposed to the sun.
  • Radiation from these rays negatively impacts the amino acids and proteins that help maintain the barrier that protects the inner core.
  • As exposure continues, the cuticle eventually weakens, leaving the cells present in the core susceptible to rupture and structural damage.
  • Just as using hot tools can have a negative impact on cuticle health, long exposure to heat from the sun will zap your hair of the moisture it needs.
  • Because the hair you see is no longer alive and has no cell regrowth, this damage is cumulative and will get worse with repeated exposure.

Pollution Protection For Healthy Hair

  • Maintain healthy hair by preventing and protecting strands from environmental pollutants
  • As one ages, hair naturally thins and becomes dry. Oxidative stress from external environmental factors speed up this process.
  • Air pollution causes oxidative stress to the hair, causing dullness.
  • Be sure to properly cleanse the hair of detrimental debris and prevent damage with protective hair ingredients

Applications & Uses

EssentiaTein™ Protect Hair Mechanism Of Action
  • Pollution Protection

Contains cationic amino acids (arginine; histidine lysine) and conditioning amino acids which bind and attach to hair fiber and remove dust particles (Al+3and Ca+2) thus less dust particles are attachedto hair fiber.

  • Antioxidation

Contains proline amino acid which scavenges singlet oxygen to prevent oxidative damage in addition to tyrosine, tryptophane, cystine, and lysine.

  • Moisturization

Contains proline, glycine, arginine glutamic acids which bind moisture inside hair fiber for less brittle hair.

  • Shine

Forms a uniform film to smooth hair cuticles.
