Aloe contains amino acids, which can penetrate and nourish the hair, while also depositing a protective film on the hair that helps to retain moisture, body, shine and smoothness. Sulfur molecules found in cysteine bind to sulfur molecules in keratin (primary protein found in hair), creating disulfide bonds which strengthen and support the quality of the hair.

Because of its chemical compound, this mixture tends not to build up in the hair with repeated use.
