How the Ingredients Work

 

  • Sodium C14-16 Olefin Sulfonate & Sodium Laureth Sulfate: Cleansing ingredients that lift away oil, dirt and product buildup from wig fibres.
  • Cocamidopropyl Betaine: A gentler cleansing ingredient that softens the shampoo's overall effect and helps it lather.
  • Polyquaternium-7: Helps reduce static and eases detangling after washing.
  • PEG-75 Lanolin: An emollient that softens fibres, supporting the shampoo's softness and sheen benefit.
  • Quaternium-79 Hydrolyzed Silk: A protein-based conditioner that adds shine and a smoother feel.
  • Citric Acid: Helps balance the formula's pH.
