The science

Sugar cane extract is a powerhouse of lactic and glycolic acids. Lactic acid helps the hair remain silky smooth, owing to its moisturizing and exfoliation capacities. Glycolic acid helps in eliminating the dry and dead skin cells and enhancing the growth of new cells. 

Sugar cane extract has many essential vitamins, like B12, C, and A, as well as minerals like zinc, copper, magnesium, potassium, and calcium. These vitamins and minerals are all required for the growth of healthy and shiny hair.
