What is Keratin?
Keratin, a fibrous structural protein, serves as the foundational building block of your hair, nails, and the outermost layer of skin (the epidermis), constituting up to 90% of their composition. Synthesized by specialized cells called keratinocytes, this resilient protein is composed of long chains of amino acids, particularly cysteine, which forms robust disulfide bonds. These bonds create a tightly woven, helical structure that grants keratin its signature durability and elasticity.
In hair, keratinâs role is multifaceted. Each strand is structured in three layers: the cuticle, the cortex, and the medulla. The cortexâs keratin fibrils are responsible for hairâs tensile strength, flexibility, and resistance to breakage. When hair is damaged by heat styling, coloring, or environmental stressors, the disulfide bonds degrade, leading to frizz, split ends, and weakness. Keratin helps rebond fractured chains, smooth the cuticle, and restore resilience.
