    don't carry electrical charge, gentle on skin and hair

    Non-ionic surfactants are a type of surfactant that do not carry any electrical charge, making them less likely to interact with ions in water. They are commonly used in shampoos and conditioners because they are gentle on the skin and hair, and they effectively remove dirt and oils without causing excessive dryness or irritation.
