Major Benefits of Head & Shoulders Lemon Fresh Anti-Dandruff Shampoo | For Hair Care:
- Zinc pyrithione inhibits the production of irritating by-products from scalp sebum by *Malassezia globosa*, the primary fungus responsible for dandruff.
- Zinc carbonate, a unique ingredient found exclusively in Head & Shoulders, enhances its anti-dandruff efficacy. This ingredient moisturizes the scalp, improving the performance of pyrithione zinc (ZPT) and optimizing its dandruff-fighting capabilities.
- Shampoos primarily work by encapsulating oils and debris on the hair and scalp for subsequent removal during rinsing. Head & Shoulders characteristically employs a combination of cleansing agents, including sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium laureth sulfate, to achieve a suitable equilibrium of effective cleaning and gentle conditioning of the hair and scalp.
- Specialized foaming ingredients, such as Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Cocamide MEA, or Cetyl Alcohol, enhance the lather's richness, creaminess, and ease of application to both scalp and hair.
- Infinitesimal dimethicone particles within the shampoo are distributed across individual hair strands during rinsing. Upon drying, this distribution creates a smoothing, protective layer over the hair cuticle, resulting in softness and luster.
- Hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride and Polyquaternium-10, conditioning agents, coat hair strands, providing a protective layer particularly beneficial when hair is damp. This action reduces tangles and improves overall manageability.
- Several of our products incorporate glycerin, a humectant that retains skin hydration. This ingredient is also beneficial for healthy hair.
- Distearate glycol ensures consistent ingredient distribution within the shampoo, maintaining a uniform mixture in each application.
- Zinc carbonate stability is achieved through the incorporation of magnesium carbonate hydroxide.
- To safeguard the raw materials during shampoo production, preservatives such as sodium benzoate and benzyl alcohol are incorporated to inhibit microbial contamination.
- Methylchloroisothiazolinone and methylisothiazolinone are incorporated as preservatives during the final stage of shampoo production. Their function is to safeguard the shampoo's integrity throughout its shelf life.
- A blend of sodium chloride and sodium xylenesulfonate modifies shampoo viscosity during final manufacturing to achieve the desired consistency.
How to Use Head & Shoulders Lemon Fresh Anti-Dandruff Shampoo | For Hair Care:
Apply the shampoo to damp hair and scalp using a gentle massaging motion. Allow it to remain for two or three minutes before rinsing completely. If needed, repeat the process.
