Mechanism of Action
This ingredient functions by neutralizing electrostatic charges, a common occurrence on hair strands, which helps to reduce frizz and improve smoothness. As a hair conditioning agent, it contributes to making hair softer, shinier, more supple, and easier to comb, while also potentially imparting volume. Its specific mechanism of action directly on skin is not detailed in the available research.
