4. How It Works: The Science Behind Our Products
At Jamaican Mango & Lime, our products are crafted using a
synergistic blend of nature and science. Each formula is designed to restore balance to both the scalp and hair strands while promoting long-term health.
Here’s how our products work over time:
- Nutrient-Rich Oils: Ingredients like castor oil and moringa seed oil penetrate deep into the hair follicle, providing essential fatty acids and vitamins (A, E, and K) that nourish the scalp and support hair regeneration.
- Moisture Lock Technology: Mango butter and honey act as humectants and emollients, sealing moisture into the hair shaft and reducing water loss. This combats dryness and keeps hair hydrated for longer periods.
- pH Balanced Cleansing: Our shampoos maintain a slightly acidic pH that mirrors your scalp’s natural level, which helps to prevent microbial growth and irritation.
- Scalp Stimulators: Ingredients like lime extract and tea tree oil improve circulation and oxygen flow to the scalp, aiding in follicle stimulation and hair growth.
- Protective Barrier Formation: Shea butter and aloe vera create a protective barrier around each strand, shielding it from pollution, heat, and styling damage.
When used consistently, the Jamaican Mango & Lime regimen builds strength from the root to the tip, enhancing elasticity, reducing breakage, and promoting vibrant, healthy hair.
