Heat Protection Solutions for Hair

 

Improve Heat Protection

The high temperatures that are associated with common styling practices like blow drying, curling or straightening with irons, and the use of other heat-based styling appliances can damage hair. Consumers need products that can condition damaged hair and provide the thermal protection that keeps hair looking and feeling healthy.

Provide thermal protection for hair with silicones from Dow Corning

Formulations for heat protection 

 

Now you can create rinse-off and leave-in conditioners that not only provide heat protection but also that condition damaged hair. With Dow Corning® silicones you can develop formulations that:

  • Prevent moisture loss when hair is subjected to heat
  • Help hair retain its positive sensory characteristics, even after shampooing

Prevent moisture loss and condition damaged hair

Silicones are thermally stable and spread easily on hair, producing a protective film that helps prevent water loss. This is key to avoiding cuticle cracks and breaks and contributes to improved sensory characteristics of hair.
