Why Does Go Deeper Cleansing Shampoo Contain Sodium Hydroxide?

Sodium Hydroxide

An organic compound that is considered safe when it serves as a PH control agent commonly used in Cleansers and soaps. Sodium Hydroxide is also found in personal cleansing products to serve its purpose as a PH adjuster as well. Used in this manner it is very safe.

The Role of Sodium Hydroxide in Hair Texture Control

Sodium Hydroxide is a key ingredient of Go Deeper Cleansing Shampoo, playing a crucial role in controlling hair texture.

As a pH adjuster, it aids in opening the hair cuticle to allow the shampoo to perform its cleansing action. It is not used in any significant quantity to interact negatively with the hair. It is completely safe since it is thoroughly rinsed out of the hair.

This process is essential for achieving the desired texture, whether it's silky straight or bouncy curls. By softening the disulfide bonds in the hair, Sodium Hydroxide enables long-lasting changes in hair texture.

The Science Behind Sodium Hydroxide as a PH Adjuster

Sodium Hydroxide's function as a pH adjuster comes from its chemical properties. As an alkaline compound, it can neutralize acidic substances, controlling the pH level of the product.

In hair care, this ability to balance pH is essential for maintaining the integrity of the hair structure. Sodium Hydroxide ensures that the shampoo's pH level is optimal for opening the cuticles without causing damage and is effective yet gentle on the hair.
