Mainly cultivated in the South American Andes Mountains, Quinoa has been an important source of nutrition in the region for 6,000 years and revered as sacred. Over time, Quinoa has been gaining more recognition as a natural and sustainable ingredient.  Its powerful benefits are now finding use in the cosmetic industry. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eHydrolyzed Quinoa\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a natural protein for hair color retention, conditioning, and protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuinoa  is considered a complete protein, containing seventeen amino acids, including all eight essential amino acids. With the combination of cationic and anionic amino acids, opposing forces attract and bind together. Cationic amino acids bind to the cuticle and act as an anchor to bind hydrolyzates to the hair. This allows for enhanced deposition of other substances (e.g. colorants) with a weaker affinity. Anionic amino acids create a scaffold around the hair to protect the strands and hair color. These side chains contribute to increased barrier function that will help give hair better overall health.\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e  Hydrolyzed Quinoa\u003c\/span\u003e is a multi-functional ingredient that improves color uptake and retention while also providing styling benefits and increasing the shine and healthy appearance of the hair.
