The best way to hydrated hair?
While hyaluronic acid has proven benefits for the skin, experts at theLab Team are not convinced of its benefit to hair itself. “Hyaluronic acid is a highly humectant molecule, meaning that it holds onto water and while the water content of hair fibres may have a positive impact on hair strength, this content is heavily dependent on the condition of the fibre , alongside the relative humidity of the environment.
Plus, an excessive amount of water in the hair fibre may lead to increased tangling, swelling of the fibres and a loss of shape in hairstyles . “With water content of hair being such a difficult variable to control, there are no known benefits to using humectant ingredients like hyaluronic acid on hair lengths.”
Trichologist Anabel Kingsley adds, “there is less data on hyaluronic acid's impact on hair fibre as opposed to the skin, but it will depend on the molecular weight of the hyaluronic acid used and how it is formulated into the product.” Other experts, however, note that the ingredient can help in the short term. "Hyaluronic acid is useful if the hair is quite weathered. It will temporarily fill in the gaps on the hair strands to seal in moisture, which will help revitalise hair and improve texture, as well as keep the hair hydrated,” explains
