Compound
At first glance at the composition of Horsepower shampoo, you might think that it is no different from most cosmetics. But it is worth noting the presence of some components, as well as the concentration of substances that have a huge impact. So, healthy oils, vitamins and trace elements with a small amount may not have any effect. Aggressive substances, on the contrary, at high concentrations can cause dryness and redness.
It is important to study the ingredients of the product, because some of them can cause irritation or allergies. Consider the main elements:
- The first visible effect of the shampoo is foaming. Sodium laureth sulfate is most often used for this. Most shampoos contain it, but not in this amount. There is much more of it here, and this can cause dryness of the skin.
- The substance diethinolamide somewhat reduces the effect of dryness from laureth sulfate, forms foam.
- For additional foaming, as well as an emulsifier and conditioner, cocoglucoside. Derived from coconut palm pulp and oil, this natural safe substance is approved for use in children's cosmetic products. It dissolves dirt and oil on the skin, cleansing and allowing moisturizing ingredients to penetrate into the dermis. Smoothes the structure of the strands, increases the volume.
- Silicone envelops the hair protects against damage when combing, smoothes scales and split ends. Removes static from curls and makes them silky.
- Vitamin B5 coats the hair with a protective film, thereby protecting from the aggressive influence of the external environment, sunlight, damage during styling, drying and combing.
- Liquid form of keratin perfectly penetrates into the hair structure, fills cracks on the surface, improves the appearance. They extract the substance from the horns and wool of some animals.
- Collagen has a similar effect, restoring the cellular structure of the hair. Moisturizes and smoothes the surface of each hair. The product also contains collagen hydrolyzate, which has the fastest effect and complete absorption.
- Lanolin protects and moisturizes, affects the metabolic processes in the upper layer of the epithelium.It is obtained from sheep's wool by long cooking. The fatty acids contained in lanolin have a similar structure to the substances in the skin and hairline, which is why they are very useful and effective.
- natural emulsifiers, for example, glyceryl stearate, activate hair growth, make them thicker and shinier.
- Air conditioner, included directly in the shampoo, it makes curls silky, strong, and combing easier.
- Oils and plant extracts nourish, strengthen follicles, act as antiseptics, improve blood circulation and fight dandruff.

Reviews of buyers and specialists
The means of the "Horsepower" line are sold exclusively through the pharmacy chain, this allows buyers to be sure of the quality of the product, its proper storage and the authenticity of the indicated ingredients.
Of course, much when using cosmetics depends on individual factors. Such as skin type, tendencies, nuances in application, combination with other products.Therefore, in each case, the results of its use may be different.
Reviews about the means of the line differ dramatically. Many are insanely satisfied with the product, they note the improvement, strengthening of hair, the result fully satisfied their expectations. Others do not see improvements and occasionally observe a deterioration in the condition of the hairline.
Consider what buyers think about this product.
Many note that ketoconazole shampoo, designed specifically to combat the initial stage of seborrhea - dandruff, is more effective. As you know, various factors can cause this problem: from dry skin, to fungus and an allergic reaction. People who used this tool write that even for capricious hair, he came up, despite the fact that choosing a good tool was previously a big problem. He also successfully fights dryness and brittle hair, which is an important factor in the ailment in question.
Horse Force Shampoo for the care of damaged hair has not been ignored. Many of today's women try to be in trend, they love brightness and general interest. Often change the haircut and, of course, the color of the curls. After using the above remedy, note beautiful shine, shade, silkiness and well-groomed hair. The result is noticeable after different times in different people, but after using the bottle, you can already evaluate the changes.
Both women and men are horrified by the first encounter with hair loss. Especially the contrast frightens those who used to be the owner of thick luxurious curls. A product designed to stimulate hair growth has helped many people solve this terrible problem. After a course of application, hair loss stops, and the hairstyle looks healthier, well-groomed and thicker.
Some leave extremely negative reviews about the product. For example, that after using the shampoo-conditioner, the hair looked greasy the next day after washing. This is for dry scalp. Reapplying didn't help either. Not every person, of course, is suitable for this product. This can only be determined by experience and expert advice.
However, the opinion of doctors, cosmetologists and stylists also differs somewhat regarding the brand.
Doctors show confidence in the fact that all Horse Force products have been tested by leading Russian specialists. Numerous studies have been conducted proving that the brand's products are safe and have a positive effect on the health of the scalp. The composition contains collagen and elastin molecules - miraculous natural substances that, even in the absence of any other useful substances, give strength and radiance to curls. Many specialists in cosmetology and dermatology agree that shampoo "Horse Force" is an excellent tool for supporting the hair shaft, treating the scalp and the initial stage of seborrhea. Especially when using together shampoos and balms.
Another part of the cosmetologists does not consider the products of "Horsepower" to be innovative and does not share the enthusiastic assessments of colleagues. Yes, the composition of the funds is quite good, but there is nothing out of the ordinary. There are many shampoos and balms with similar properties and a much lower price on store windows - many believe. It is also believed that the popularity of the means was made by a terrific advertising campaign. And this is all the uniqueness that is in the products from Horse Force, collagen, vitamins, oils - all these are excellent ingredients for cosmetics. But it is impossible to say that the products do not contain artificial components at all. Yes, and they do not produce any sensation in the care.
Trichologists, often dealing with patients with problems of the epidermis of the scalp, note some people with problems after using the "Horsepower" products. It can be assumed that these people used a formula that was not adapted for humans or did not dilute it with water. At the same time, the "horse" concentration of active substances, the wrong pH balance of the product grossly violated the natural protection of the skin and dried it out. Do not be lazy before buying a product, ask a specialist a question. He will advise you about the condition of your epidermis, as well as about the dosage and options for using the shampoo. This way you can avoid many problems.
If we analyze the reviews, opinions of scientists, experts and information provided by the manufacturer, we can conclude that the products of the Horsepower line are undoubtedly effective. They have a rich composition, full of valuable substances for caring for the health of the hair.

Some experts believe that the active substances in these products may be deposited on the hair surface. Thus, they do not allow the epidermis and hair to breathe. Visually, this can add volume and density to the hairstyle. But it does not bring any benefit at all, rather, it damages and depresses the hair.
At the same time, both buyers and doctors have a question about the price of funds. Are they really so good that their cost is much higher than similar products in the mass sector? Only the consumer can answer this question for himself.There are many products on the market with similar compositions and claims of action. It is necessary to choose, taking into account all the features of your hair, your needs and the size of your wallet.
