Rogaine is the most popular hair-care solutions provider, famous for hair regrowth treatments. With the discovery of the beneficial effects of minoxidil, Rogaine launched many hair care solutions that can attend to baldness, hair loss and hair fall problems. In order to enhance the performance of the hair care products, Rogaine also released Progaine Volumizing Shampoo to thicken and fix thin and frail hair. Most of the benefits users experience from this shampoo come from the protein ingredients. Since Progaine does not have the active hair regrowth ingredients, the proteins provide nourishment and condition the hair to reduce hair fall and hair loss. They combine together to strengthen the hair and make the entire hair care solution effective for Rogaine users. Keratin Hair itself is made of keratin. Progaine uses keratin to rejuvenate and mend damaged areas of hair. Keratin is the best of all proteins for hair care. When used in shampoos or conditioners, it enters the hair shaft strengthening it from within. It helps to mend weak areas of the hair and protects the strands from split ends, hair fall and breakage. Keratin also works on hair cuticles by binding and reducing frizz caused due to humidity. It brings back the lost natural texture of the hair and restores pH balance, gloss and other natural properties of the hair. Jojoba protein Jojoba protein is a low-molecular-weight protein. It can penetrate through the hair to lubricate the follicles. Jojoba oil is generally known to stimulate hair growth and reduce hair fall and hair loss. Progaine uses this quality by introducing the protein in the shampoo. The jojoba protein hydrates the shaft of the hair increasing its capacity to hold moisture. It conditions dry, rough and thin hair and repairs weakened areas of hair. It is a highly effective moisturizer that is cleverly used in Progaine to decrease hair loss. Wheat protein Progaine has hydrolyzed wheat proteins and wheat amino acids. Hydrolyzed just means that the protein is broken into smaller subunits rather than using it as a long chain polymer. Wheat proteins that are hydrolyzed are also of low molecular weight. It is due to this reason that they can penetrate through the hair and work from within the hair shaft. Ideally, wheat proteins moisturize hair and increase its water retention ability. This not only rejuvenates hair growth but also adds gloss to hair. Progaine uses wheat proteins to reduce hair porosity improving the texture of hair. It gives volume making hair feel thick and strong. When hair is moisturized, it is easy to manage. Soy protein Hydrolyzed soy proteins are of lower molecular weight. They are intended to stay on your hair after the final wash. It is because of the low molecular weight that they penetrate through the pores in your hair and enter the shaft and follicles. Apart from this, they coat the hair strands and help repair damaged, dull-looking hair. They can also protect hair from split ends as they provide strength against breakage. Along with this, since they act as humectant in Progaine, they provide a glossy sheen to the hair. Since all these proteins work together in Progaine, the shampoo produces wonderful results reducing hair fall, preventing hair loss and adding a lot of volume and bounce to hair.
