Taming Electric Hair
Why do we have electric hair?
.
Static electricity in hair is mainly caused by friction. When your hair rubs against a material, such as a hat, comb or even theair, there is a transfer of electrons. Hair can gain or lose electrons.
- When your hair gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged.
- If your hair loses electrons, it becomes positively charged.
Charges of the same sign repel each other, which means that if all your hair has a similar charge, they will tend to repel each other.
.
Humidity plays a crucial role in this phenomenon:
.
When the air is sec, as is often the case during the months ofwinter or in arid climates, it contains less water vapor. This low humidity has a direct impact on how electrical charges behave. In this case, itCharges build up on the hair, sometimes causing them to repel each other. This is what creates the visual effect of hair appearing to "float" or stand upright, a phenomenon often described as hair being "Power"Or"frizzy".

What care to adopt?
.
Moisturizing Hair Jelly with Aloe Vera and Flax :
- hydration : Aloe vera is known for its moisturizing properties. By increasing hair hydration, the jelly reduces dryness and therefore the tendency of hair to develop a static charge.
- Smoothing Agents : Flaxseeds are rich in fatty acids that can help smooth the hair cuticle, reducing friction and static charge formation.
.
This combination of ingredients makes Aloe Vera and Flax Moisturizing Hair Jelly an optimal choice for those looking to control electric hair while effectively nourishing it.
.
Moisturizing Hair Jelly with Aloe Vera and Flax can be ideally combined with the use of a Baby-Hair Double Comb to obtain optimal results, in particular to smooth and discipline small, rebellious and resistant hairs.
.
- pH balance : The natural pH of the scalp and hair between 4,5 and 5,5. A pH 5 shampoo helps maintain this balance, preventing dryness and brittle hair that can contribute to static electricity.
- Alkalinity Reduction* : Shampoos that are too alkaline can raise the pH of the hair, making it more susceptible to static. A pH 5 shampoo avoids this problem.
.
This shampoo helps combat static hair by maintaining the natural pH balance of the scalp and hair, thus avoiding dryness and brittleness that favor the accumulation of static electricity.
.
*Alkaline means that the pH value of an environment is greater than 7.
.
Amino Cationic Lipid Technology Balm :
- Cationic Charges : Cationic lipids are positively charged. They adhere to negatively charged areas on the hair surface, helping to neutralize static charge.
- Repair and Protection : Amino acids help repair and strengthen the hair shaft. Stronger, better protected hair is less likely to develop static electricity.
- Reduced Friction : These conditioning agents can smooth the hair cuticles, reducing friction and therefore the formation of static charge.
.
.
In summary, these products work together to hydrate, balance pH, and smooth the hair surface, while providing opposing charges to neutralize static electricity. This makes hair less prone to static electricity, easier to style and hold in place.
