RESULTS: ALL HAIR LOSES PROTEIN<br />

• Protein loss can be detected<br />

after just 5 minutes of exposure<br />

<strong>to</strong> water<br />

• Protein loss increases with time<br />

• Chemically <strong>damage</strong>d <strong>hair</strong> loses<br />

more protein than virgin <strong>hair</strong><br />

• Measuring protein loss provides<br />

early detection of <strong>damage</strong>,<br />

before it’s <strong>to</strong>o late<br />

Extraction Time (min)<br />

• Protein loss at 60 minutes is equivalent <strong>to</strong><br />

approx. 0.1% of <strong>to</strong>tal protein from virgin<br />

<strong>hair</strong> <strong>and</strong> 0.4% from bleached <strong>hair</strong><br />

(measured by Modified Lowry assay)
