Why does hair need collagen? We select professional care.

Hair restoration with the help of collagen sounds very interesting because there is no collagen in the hair. Let’s figure out if collagen is good for hair or is a marketing ploy.

Collagen is the basis of connective tissue, an important protein in the skin’s extracellular matrix. Organic collagen is the source of youth and health of the whole organism. A decrease in its production leads to hair loss, increased dryness, and decreased hair elasticity. In the human body, collagen is produced naturally, but sometimes its deficiency occurs. In general, the role of collagen in health is very significant, so it is taken orally or used externally.

Collagen for hair benefits

Collagen for hair performs a hydro-fixing function. It retains moisture, so the curls look healthier, more elastic, and resilient, pleasing with softness, shine, and a beautiful appearance. There are different procedures with collagen of different intensities of exposure. But even with regular home care products with collagen, the hair becomes more manageable and moisturized.

There are several types of collagen that differ in the extraction method: animal, vegetable, and marine collagen. The first – has yet to prove itself as a universal remedy; its molecules are too large, and the film it creates can clog pores. Vegetable collagen is rarely used due to its high cost. And finally, the third, marine-in structure, is closest to humans and penetrates the skin more easily; the difficulties lie in the fact that it is also not cheap and requires special storage conditions.

The most modern development is hydrolyzed collagen for hair. This collagen can attract and retain moisture, improving nutrition and restoring hair structure. After using products with their presence in the composition, the hair becomes smooth, silky, and elastic.

Why you need a heat-protectant hair spray

Blow-drying and styling hair is a daily routine. But regular exposure to high temperatures of curling irons, ironing, and other devices cannot affect the hair’s condition. Heating devices for styling heat up to 95-170 ° C, and many irons have a mark of 200 degrees. Although already at 130 ° C, damage to the hair occurs. Paint pigments burn and lose color; the outer cuticle is injured, moisture evaporates, and keratin proteins are destroyed, leaving the hair dry and lifeless. Regular styling makes the hair duller and brittle and loses volume and beauty. Special hair protection is required during hot styling.

To minimize the harmful effects of heat on the hair during styling, it is necessary to use special heat-protective hair products. They come in various forms, but the most convenient to use are sprays, like the “reconstruction and hydration” Collagen Thermal Protective Hair Spray. Heat-protectant hair spray helps protect hair from heat and hot tools during drying and styling. Cares and restores the structure of the hair and promotes easy combing. How to use: spray on wet hair before the procedure.
