What are Keratin Amino Acids? Keratin Amino Acids are the Amino Acids extracted from the Keratin itself (amino acids make up a protein). They are then purified to make them stronger. However, the molecule size of the keratin amino acids allows it to penetrate the hair shaft to help repair damage (whereas hydrolyzed keratin does not penetrate the hair).

Keratin Amino Acid is a powerful moisturizer that can penetrate the hair enhancing its conditioning effects.
