Hair transformational solution, which transforms hair via a physical change, rather than a chemical change, with the unique properties that act like natural human sebum.

a technology of transformational solution and hair, applied in the field of hair transformational solution, can solve the problems of kinky hair getting little or no sebum at all, prone to damage, dullness, dryness, etc., and achieve the effects of preventing cracking, peeling, flaking, and wrinkling of the skin, and being convenient to comb

Benefits of technology

[0016]Sebum is a naturally occurring substance made by the body that is secreted through the skin and scalp. It is beneficial to the skin to keep it moisturized and protected from the elements. Individuals with less sebum will tend to have dryer skin. The dry skin type needs intervention, human made moisturizers are needed to prevent cracking, peeling, flaking, and wrinkling of the skin, it also gives it sheen to keep it from looking dull. Individuals with more sebum on the skin enjoy the benefits of healthy glowing skin that is not peeling cracking and shedding. Sebum for the scalp is no different. In order for the hair to be moisturized, free from breakage, strong, protected, smooth, shiny, sleek, and grow it needs sebum and the more it has the better. It is made by our body and secreted through our sebaceous glands beneath our scalp, put there to provide a natural protection for the hair. The sebum will glide from the root and then down the hair shaft all the way to the tip. It is easy to make it way down straight hair, it does so very quickly, which is why this hair type needs to be washed almost every day. Wavy and curly hair sebum takes a little longer because the sebum has to go through several curves to get from one end of the hair to the other but eventually it does get there. Kinky hair gets little or no sebum at all, because it has a difficult time traveling on the hair shaft because of it irregular shape. Lack of sebum is the primary reason why kinky hair is rough, coarse, and unmanageable.
[0017]The presence of sebum seems to be synonymous with texture, the more sebum you have the more straight the hair will be, the more manageable, easy to comb, shiny, healthy looking and strong hair will be. Kinky hair gets the bad end of the stick virtually little to no sebum gets to the shaft or the tip of the strands so it gets very little to none of the benefits that the other hair types have. Even if lots of sebum is created on the scalp because of the zigzag irregular pattern of the hair, the sebum has a difficult time making its way down the hair shaft. So we created a formula that is very close to the body's own sebum. Straight hair has

Problems solved by technology

When hair is lacking sebum it is not strong, has no protection from the elements, has no protection from styling tools, has no protection from chemicals, it is prone to damage, dullness, and dryness, lacks a uniformed or coherent pattern.

Straight hair has the most sebum of all hair types, which is why it become greasy quickly and has to be washed almost every day, Kinky hair does not have to be washed everyday because it does not get much sebum and because it is so dry it would not benefit from being washed every day, if washed everyday it would get so dry and it would probably all fall out.

How to Make the Product

[0022]Combining liquid starch, beeswax (or soy wax), emulsifying wax, and one main oil of choice (or lubricant like petroleum) (called the main oil of choice because it is the larger quantity of oil in the recipe). Heat the ingredients together, until mixture is thin liquid state and it looks grayish or more like water. Then mix liquid it will become white like liquid milk. Mixture will become thick and homogeneous. Add in 2nd oil of choice if any (The 2nd oil of choice is the oil that is the least amount in the recipe). Add in C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate. At this time add in the mica and Titanium dioxide. Continue to Mix well until completely cool. Add fragrance.

The original formula consist of:

4 parts liquid starch

2 and ½ parts Beeswax (or soy wax vegan)

More or less 1 part oil (any listed oil or liquid wax or lubricant)

More or less 0.5 part of a second chosen oil

0.08 part Emulsifying wax

0.04 part mica and Titanium dioxide

0.04 parts C12-15 Alkyl Benzoate

And Fragranc...

Abstract

A hair transformation agent, useful in transforming hair texture from kinky to curly, by application of this non permanent solution. The solution acts like the sebum of a human. Hair that is naturally rich in sebum is healthy, shiny, strong, nourished. Hair that is lacking is in typically in bad condition. Hair shaft can lack sebum because of chemical use, but seems to be a natural occurrence in kinky hair. Because of this people with kinky hair often seek extreme measures to restore their hair or make it more manageable. Most resort to chemical processing to change the texture look and feel of the hair only this just makes the hair worst. Our formula will give kinky hair the sebum it is lacking and in the process the hair will begin to act, look and feel like another hair texture that has abundant sebum naturally, curly hair, and textural change will occur.
