Black hair is so fragile that any treatment, from daily grooming  to chemical relaxing or cold waving, causes damage.  Our goal is to minimize this damage.  The Body Look Detangling Conditioner is formulated with Amine Functional Silicone Polymers to reduce combing force and thus has a significant impact on minimizing damage from mechanical stress caused by combing or brushing.  Amine Functional Silicone Polymers contain polar amine groups that have profound effects on the depositional properties of the silicone, giving it an affinity for the proteinaceous surface of the hair.  This is especially true for damaged hair, which is more negatively charged than virgin hair.  In this case, the Body Look Detangling Conditioner deposits the conditioning silicone polymers on the hair shaft and makes the hair soft, manageable, and easy to comb.
