Strengthens from root to tip. Rice protein is a high-performance bioactive that supports stronger, fuller-looking hair over time by working along the hair fiber. It helps reinforce the strand's structure, improve resilience, and add visible body with continued use. Research suggests that hydrolyzed rice protein (protein broken down into smaller components for better binding) can help improve the hair's surface condition [1]. Its amino acid profile closely aligns with the natural composition of hair, allowing it to help smooth the cuticle and support overall strand integrity [2]. Studies also suggest that rice-derived ingredients can help improve the appearance of the hair's surface, leaving it smoother and more even in texture [3].
