Panthenol

Panthenol See also Vitamin B5. Using Panthenol in hair care products gives hair long lasting moisture, improves manageability, reduces split ends and damage, and adds thickness and shine to the hair. It is a Vitamin B complex that can add strength and body to hair by filling in cracks on the hair shaft, thereby firming up the fiber. Studies show that after multiple uses, Panthenol that is deposited on the hair penetrates the hair shaft and root, metabolizing into Pantothenic Acid, an important constituent of healthy hair. Panthenol in hair care products has shown to help protect the hair from the harsh effects of brushing, blow drying, chemical treatments and the environment.
