Characteristics and Application :
Phytokeratin is a composite product made by blending free amino acids from plants in the same proportions as they are found in the popular human hair amino acid products. Phytokeratin is a 25% active, easy-to-use aqueous solution.
Phytokeratin will augment the free amino acids naturally present in the sebum and in the hair. It has been thought that the free amino acids naturally present in the hair play an important role in maintaining the moisture balance of the hair, which help to keep it moist and supple. Phytokeratin’s low molecular weight can enable it to penetrate into the hair, providing moisturization while helping to improve its “healthy” appearance. Phytokeratin? will not coat the hair in the same way as the commonly used proteins and polypeptides. It is currently offered in a paraben-free version under the trade name, Phytokeratin PF.
