HAIR CLEANSER COMPOSITION, METHODS AND USES THEREOF
The present disclosure provides a hair cleanser composition for cleansing and repairing hair. The hair cleanser compositions described herein have a pH optimized to cleanse the hair and scalp. The pH of the hair cleanser composition minimizes reduces swelling and protein loss. The hair cleanser compositions described herein comprise peptides, which are based on the structure of keratin and keratin associated proteins. The peptides described bind hair with high affinity and repair keratinous fiber damage through the formation of disulfide bonds and other bonding interactions such as hydrogen bonds, ionic bonds, and Van der Waals interactions.
