Functions of Conditioning Agents

Enhance mildness (of shampoo formulations) Provide ease of wet combing / provide lubricity Increase hair softness Increase hair shine Make hair more manageable Prevent buildup of static electricity Leave hair silky and smooth / lay down cuticles Protection against thermal and mechanical damage Hair dye color protection

How Conditioning Agents Work

Deposition Coating the porous, hydrophilic damaged hair Adsorb hydrophilic head down, hydrophobic tail up Confer hydrophobicity to hair Durability during several wash cycles

Issues with Cationic Conditioning Agents

Silicones De-foamers Silicones are incompatible with typical ingredients used in

shampoos Large amounts of silicones are necessary in rinse-out products

to ensure deposition Particularly reduced deposition profile in dyed hair

Silicone droplet size makes clear formulations difficult Silicones are undesirable by consumers

Issues with Cationic Conditioning Agents

Quats Allergens Phenolic quats are considered endocrine disrupters

Both Must be formulated in such a way to induce phase separation

during rinsing so it doesn’t wash off (particularly in shampoos) Build up on hair Negative connotation by consumers as not natural Toxicity to aquatic life
