Squalane Lipid

Meaning ❉ Squalane Lipid, a stable, naturally occurring hydrocarbon, acts as a tender ally for textured hair, mimicking the skin’s own protective oils. Its plant-derived purity provides a light touch, assisting in the delicate balance of moisture for coils and kinks often prone to dryness. This lipid aids in promoting pliability and reducing friction, making detangling a smoother process within a structured regimen. A consistent application helps establish an efficient hair care rhythm, guiding strands towards enhanced softness and reduced breakage. Understanding Squalane Lipid means recognizing a supportive element that aligns with the natural needs of Black and mixed-race hair, supporting its inherent strength and beauty with practical, gentle assistance.
