Hair Cosmetics And Cosmeceuticals

Hair cosmetics, including shampoos, played a crucial role in personal confidence and quality of life by cleansing, protecting, and enhancing the appearance of hair. Shampoos, composed of 10 to 30 ingredients, needed to cleanse mildly to avoid stripping natural oils. Conditioning molecules in shampoos facilitated easier combing and improved hair hydration, softness, and shine. Baby shampoos used non-irritating amphoteric detergents for gentle cleansing due to limited sebum production in babies.
