Our hair is made up of a hard protein called Keratin, It is extremely strong and held together by two kinds of bonds “Disulphide bonds and Hydrogen bonds. These bonds get broken down by our manipulation, chemical processes like color or chemical relaxer, and the environment.

Our hair also needs lots of moisture to keep our hair pliable and hydrated. Without that moisture, our hair becomes dry and brittle. When the hair is being moisturized, water molecules bind with the protein present in the strands. It is this way that they are able to absorb and hydrate.
