Description
Behenamidopropyl dimethylamine is a conditioner that we use in our conditioners to make them so wonderful. This ingredient is actually made from oleyl brassica (a family of mustard, cabbage). During the amide process, the oil is transformed into a cationic (positively charged) conditioner that helps detangle and soothe static electricity. Behenamidopropyl dimethylamine is great for detangling, conditioning, and reducing static electricity. In the cosmetic industry, it is most commonly found in conditioners and, to a lesser extent, in shampoos. It is very suitable for all hair types, including straight, wavy, and curly.
