Crodafos HCE

Wouldn't it be great if there was an ingredient that helped deliver better, long-lasting color while making the hair softer and more manageable?  There is no need to wait; a richer, more vibrant color that lasts longer without damaging the hair is possible with the Crodafos HCE complex.

Based on phosphate ester technology, Crodafos HCE is designed to deliver the colorant and coupling agent in the hair dye into the hair's cortex. The dyes then react within the cortex and produce a more vibrant color.

Crodafos HCE maintains color better through repeated washings than the control.  After 20 washes, more color in the hair treated with Crodafos HCE was maintained.  Color lasts longer with dyes containing 4% of this complex.

Clinical studies showed that hair treated with Crodafos HCE was less damaged than the control.  There was less change in the contact angle, from before and after dyeing, on the tresses treated with Crodafos HCE and, therefore, less damage.  Crodafos HCE provides a more vibrant, longer-lasting color and hair that is less damaged.

Crodafos HCE is an ideal ingredient for hair color applications, including permanent, semi-permanent, and temporary hair color.
