Sodium Cocoyl IsethionateUpdated 3 months ago

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate (SCI)

Sodium Cocoyl Isethionate is a gentle surfactant derived from coconut oil and isethionic acid. It is rich in fatty acids that cleanse hair effectively without stripping natural oils. SCI leaves hair soft, hydrated, and manageable while promoting scalp health.

Key Benefits:

  • Effectively removes dirt, oils, and buildup without stripping natural oils, maintaining scalp health and preventing dryness.
  • Gentler than traditional sulfates (e.g., Sodium Lauryl Sulfate), making it suitable for sensitive scalps, color-treated, curly, or textured hair.
  • Produces a rich, creamy lather, even in hard water, enhancing the cleansing experience.
  • Emollient properties leave hair soft, smooth, and manageable, targeting frizz, dryness, and damage.
