Behentrimonium Chloride
I’m a natural alternative to harsh silicones: I’m a conditioner that helps keep hair detangled, smooth, and frizz-free.
Technical Term
Behentrimonium Chloride
Ingredient Class
Sidekick Ingredients
I’m a sidekick: I help assist active ingredients by enriching different formulas to make them even more awesome.
I keep hair tangle-free and feeling smooth.
How I'm made
I’m a waxy solid derived from the seeds of Brassica Rapa Oleifera (also called canola or rapeseed) which is in the ‘mustard plant’ family.
How I work
I’m in conditioners and detanglers to help add ‘slip’, which means I stay on hair after you rinse or brush—I make it easy to detangle hair and keep it soft. I’m plant-based and not chemical-based, which means I penetrate hair to stick around (instead of leaving a coating on the outside of it). My anti-static effect helps prevent frizz and flyaways, so your style stays smooth.
