Description
Polyquaternium-44 is a highly effective multinational polymer for use in a variety of cleansing products to improve combability when hair is wet and prevent static build-up when hair is dry. It also protects the hair by forming a shield around each hair so that its surface is less susceptible to attack. It conditions and provides a smooth, silky look to the hair. The creamy foam is greatly improved. Fine hair has no drawbacks in terms of volume, build-up and build-up when used at recommended usage levels. It is a viscous transparent amber liquid with a faint odor. Since they are positively charged, they neutralize the negative charges of most shampoos, relaxers, proteins, etc., helping the hair to lay flat. Their positive charge is ionically related to the hair. It is especially beneficial to use cationic polymers on hair exposed to highly alkaline conditioners to reduce hair damage. They attach to the hair and provide conditioning conditions such as ease of combing, straightening, elasticity and shine. Polyquaternium also helps reduce flyaway and static charge.
