Protein Fiber

Meaning ❉ Protein fiber, the core structural element within each hair strand, shapes the unique architecture of textured patterns. This primary constituent, predominantly keratin, influences the curl’s natural formation and inherent resilience. Grasping its contribution directs a soft, intentional approach to hair care, evolving routines from casual product application toward a thoughtful system. This knowledge assists in recognizing when a strand requires a delicate protein presence to maintain its natural strength, or when hydration is the prevailing need. Applying this awareness refines daily habits into a focused practice, supporting the authentic growth of your coils and curls with precise attention, encouraging healthy hair development and sustained vitality.
