Hydrolyzed wheat protein

 Why should wheat protein be hydrolyzed?

Proteins, due to their large size, have difficulty penetrating beyond the skin's surface. However, by hydrolyzing proteins, their effectiveness in the cosmetic industry can be increased. The purpose of hydrolysis is to break peptide bonds and increase free amino acids, which have the ability to penetrate the inner surfaces of the skin and hair.

Hydrolysis is a chemical reaction that breaks down protein molecules into lower molecular weight fragments that can be absorbed by the hair. These smaller protein fragments can penetrate the hair shaft, replacing lost protein and strengthening the hair from within.
