Oxidized Keratin
FK Repair Ultra™ is a salon quality ingredient that repairs damaged hair and reduces color fade.
FK Repair Ultra™ is recovered from New Zealand sheep wool using a mild process, resulting in a uniquely Oxidised Keratin that is 91% homologous to human hair. This allows multiple forms of bonding within damaged fibers that mimic natural interactions. Our Oxidised Keratin is able to bond exceptionally well with damaged hair, actually healing the damage.
FK Repair Ultra™ significantly reduces color fade and leads to hair that feels better and looks better for longer. A sensorial panel reported that FK Repair Ultra™ creates hair that is better nourished, stronger, shinier and softer.
FK Repair Ultra™ is vegetarian certified, non-GMO, halal certified and is sourced from 100% natural, renewable sheep wool. FK Repair Ultra™ is available in solution and is well suited for the formulation of salon treatments and tonics.
“Keraplast Functional Keratins® are full length protein and polypeptides, closer in form to human keratin than any other material ever produced. Unique attributes of Functional Keratin® proteins and peptides:• The molecular structure and cystine groups are preserved• Bioactivity is retained• Readily absorbed across biological membranes• Possesses film forming propertiesFunctional Keratin® has high cystine content• Strong homology with human keratin, a core component of skin • Maintains structure of hair, nails and skin• Repairs damageFunctional Keratin® has specific amino acid sequences binding to hair strongly• Similar to a zip structure• Electrostatic bonding• Hydrophilic and hydrophobic bondingSuperior to poorly functioning hydrolyzed keratin in the market Molecular Weight 1,000 Da (Peptide) to 60,000 Da (Film Former)• Biological activity well established• Anti-aging, anti-pollution activity well established • Collagen production demonstrated• Protects and controls the amino acid cystine”
