BELLAHUT'S PEPTIDE MIXING CHART
Caution: Do not apply undiluted peptides or additives directly onto your skin. This product should be added to a formulation at the recommended usage rate. You can use Bellahut's premium cream or gel as your base for your formulation.
This amazing additive is capable of modifying hair shape while protecting it from styling damage. Rather than focusing on repairing broken bonds that occur during physical and chemical stress this lipopeptide helps to prevent damage from happening in the first place.
Cuticle preservation is essential to prevent hair damage. The cuticle is the outermost layer of the hair, composed of overlapping cells that shield the cortex,while holding moisture and protecting hair from the environment. Damage to the cuticle compromises the structural integrity of the hair shaft, making hair prone to breakage. Utilizing the concept of synthetic biology, Bellahut's Style Control & Hold is a bivalent cationic lipopeptide that self-assembles into a neo-cuticle on the hair. The formation of this biomimetic cuticle helps to retain style while offering protection from harsh styling treatments to promote healthy hair.
Given the nature of the hair, it can be difficult to straighten or curl the hair for long periods of time without inflicting damage. This is because keratins found in hair are strong and insoluble fibrous alpha-helical proteins. Damage that occurs to hair after styling is a result of the structural integrity of the cuticle being compromised. When the structure of the hair cuticle is degraded, hair is more susceptible to breakage. Hair needs a solid foundation to prevent damage, and the building block of hair is protein. Bamboo gets its strength from being rich in protein, silica, and various vitamins and minerals, which can help restore the strength of the hair. Bellahut's Style Control & Hold is a lipopeptide derived from bamboo protein, which can create a de novo cuticle on the hair to prevent styling damage from happening in the first place.
