Detailed description

This highly anionic polymer can be used to forms clear, flexible films that quickly dissipate static charges to tame flyway and frizz or to remove cationic build-up from the hair. As the film shrinks upon itself while drying, it can also provide a thermal shield on the hair to prevent excessive damage from heated styling implements.
