Afro Heal Hydrolyzed Silk Protein Powder, 25 G

There are multiple ingredients and many ways that have been shown to improve overall hair . One of these ingredients is known as hydrolysed silk protein. Silk is typically known for being soft and lustrous and when hydrolysed silk protein is applied to brittle hair, the results are no different. Hydrolysed silk protein does indeed come from silk which is deemed to be one of the strongest fibbers on the planet. Hair is mostly made up of a protein known as keratin. Protein provides the hair strands with strength, protection and structure. While some may actually weaken the hair, when applying shampoos and conditioners enriched with proteins such as silk protein, they actually reinforce the strength and structure of weakened hair strands. Everyone's hair is different but typically those with colour treated hair or those who have undergone similar hair s are at a greater need for added protein. s performed on the hair have been known to cause damage as they break up the protein bonds. However, there are also other reasons for a needed boost of protein including, genetics, hormones and diet. Whatever the case may be, it is very important to try and maintain a balance between protein and moisture within the hair because too much of one can also result in breakage. Hydrolysed silk protein has the ability to replenish the hair with cysteine which is one of the 4 amino s needed to produce keratin. Additionally, as a result of hydrolysis, hydrolysed silk protein has a low molecular weight which means it has a greater ability to infiltrate the hair strands. As it penetrates the hair, it improves its elasticity against breakage while also forming a protective barrier on the hair. This barrier or shield serves as a means to improve shine while also preventing the hair against moisture loss.
