Why This Works
Aloe vera is an abundant source of proteolytic enzymes which repair the damaged cells present in your scalp (1). This allows it to improve follicle health and boost hair growth. The moisture content of this ingredient helps hydrate your hair and keep it conditioned throughout the day. This will ensure a smooth texture with minimized frizz.
