Lejla HodzicIf you're just slightly into beauty, you've probably heard of the ingredient Hyaluronic acid, whose moisture-attracting and -retaining abilities have long captivated the skincare industry. But did you know that Hyaluronic acid is increasingly being used in hair care as well? In this article, we delve into the future of hair care, where ingredients inspired by skincare pave the way for a new era in hair care.

‘Skinification’
A new trend is emerging in hair care. 'Skinification' represents the fusion of skincare and hair care, marking a new era in the care of both hair and the scalp. Inspiration is drawn from skincare routines and ingredients traditionally known in skin care, including potent and hyped ingredients such as Hyaluronic acid, Niacinamide, Salicylic acid and ceramides. However, there is also a growing focus on vitamins and minerals, which beauty enthusiasts actively seek to achieve similar benefits in their hair care.
This is partly due to the increasing interest in scalp care because one cannot discuss hair care without considering the skin on the scalp. In reality, we should consider renaming hair washing to scalp washing because when you wash your hair, it is actually the scalp that is most important to cleanse.

The moisture magnet Hyaluronic acid
Before we explore the function of Hyaluronic acid in hair care, it is important to understand the development of Hyaluronic acid in skincare. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a gel-like substance naturally present in the connective tissue of the skin, ensuring that the skin remains hydrated. Hyaluronic acid has a unique ability to attract and retain massive amounts of moisture. In short, the moisture magnet Hyaluronic acid is a fast track to fuller, well-hydrated, and fresher skin, rightfully earning its reputation as a true skincare hero.
But how can we transfer the benefits of Hyaluronic acid to hair care?
Karmameju's clinically proven Hyaluronic acid is just one example of our many ingredients extracted through innovative biotechnology, featured in a wide range of our products.
Hyaluronic Acid - a Game-Changer in Hair Care
Incorporating hyaluronic acid into hair care products brings a range of benefits. Just as it does wonders for the skin, Hyaluronic acid has the ability to attract and retain moisture in the hair and scalp:
Hydrates the Hair
Hyaluronic acid works on the hair fibers similar to its action on the skin, allowing the hair strands to absorb and lock in moisture from products and water – envision hyaluronic acid as a large glass of water for your hair.
Reduces frizz and adds Shine
Hyaluronic acid also helps seal the outer layer of the hair strand, reducing frizz and imparting a sublime shine.
Provides fullness and volume to the hair
Hyaluronic acid has a volumizing effect, particularly beneficial for dry, colour-treated and damaged hair. The volumizing effect can be applied to add fullness at the roots, advantageous for fine hair types.
Karmameju's bioactive Hyaluronic acid in the HALO hair mask consists of multiple molecule sizes that penetrate deeply into different layers of the hair strand, leaving a documented higher level of moisture while retaining moisture in the hair, reducing frizz, and adding volume, shine, and softness.
This is particularly beneficial for those struggling with dry, frizzy or damaged hair, as Hyaluronic acid works to restore and maintain optimal moisture levels. However, ALL hair types benefit from incorporating Hyaluronic acid into their hair care routine.
