Protein Treatment
Hydrolyzed Keratin Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 40% increase in hair tensile strength in damaged fibers
- Up to 50% reduction in mechanical breakage during brushing
- 20–30% improvement in wet combing force
Key Benefits:
Hydrolyzed keratin contains low-molecular-weight peptides derived from natural hair proteins that bind to damaged keratin sites within the cuticle and cortex. These peptides help reinforce weakened areas of the hair fiber, improving elasticity and structural resilience.
Hydrolyzed Silk Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 30% increase in measurable hair shine
- 15–20% reduction in fiber-to-fiber friction
- 10–15% improvement in moisture retention
Key Benefits:
Silk amino acids form a lightweight film across the cuticle surface,
smoothing irregularities in the hair shaft. This improves light reflection, reduces friction during combing, and supports hydration balance.
Hydrolyzed Hemp Protein
Clinically Proven Performance
- Contains approximately 65% edestin protein, structurally compatible with human keratin
- High levels of sulfur-containing amino acids, important for keratin cross-linking
Key Benefits:
Hemp protein provides plant-derived amino acids that help support the natural protein structure of the hair fiber while improving elasticity and resilience.
Hydroxypropylgluconamide (and) Hydroxypropylammonium Gluconate
Clinically-Proven Performance
- Up to 28% improvement in hair fiber strength in chemically-damaged hair
- Up to 40% reduction in hair breakage after repeated treatments
- Demonstrated ability to restore internal hydrogen and ionic bonds
Key Benefits:
This advanced bond-repair complex penetrates into the hair cortex where it helps rebuild hydrogen and ionic bonds that stabilize the internal keratin matrix. By restoring these internal bonds, hair strength and manageability are significantly improved.

Nourishing Conditioner
Caesalpinia Spinosa Gum
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 30% reduction in combing force
- Demonstrated improvement in humidity resistance and frizz control
Key Benefits:
This plant-derived polysaccharide forms a flexible conditioning film on the hair surface, improving slip, moisture balance, and fiber alignment.
Sodium PCA
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Can increase hair moisture retention by up to 40%
- Capable of binding multiple times its weight in water
Key Benefits:
Sodium PCA is a natural component of the skin and hair’s Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). It attracts and binds water molecules, helping maintain optimal hydration in both the hair fiber and scalp.
Glycerin
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Can bind up to 3–4 times its weight in water
- Can increase hair fiber moisture by ~20–30%
Key Benefits:
Glycerin acts as a humectant that draws moisture into the hair shaft, improving flexibility and reducing brittleness.
Behentrimonium Chloride
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 50–60% reduction in wet combing force
- Significant anti-static reduction in dry hair fibers
Key Benefits:
This cationic conditioning agent selectively binds to damaged areas of the hair shaft, smoothing the cuticle surface and improving detangling performance.
Silicone Quaternium-22 Conditioning System (and) Polyglyceryl-3 Caprate (and) Dipropylene Glycol (and) Cocamidopropyl Betaine
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 50% reduction in wet combing force
- Long-lasting anti-static and smoothness improvements
Key Benefits:
This advanced silicone conditioning system deposits a lightweight protective layer across the hair surface. The positively charged silicone targets damaged fibers, improving slip, smoothness, and manageability.
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 12% increase in hair fiber volume
- Up to 30% improvement in moisture retention
- Demonstrated reduction in hair breakage in damaged fibers
Key Benefits:
Hydrolyzed wheat proteins form a thin strengthening film around the hair shaft that increases diameter, improves elasticity, andhelps retain moisture.
Hydrolyzed Silk Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 30% improvement in hair shine
- Reduced fiber friction for improved manageability
Key Benefits:
Silk peptides smooth the cuticle surface and enhance light reflection, improving softness and luster.

Leave-In Conditioner
Cetrimonium Chloride
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Demonstrated significant reduction in static electricity
- Improves wet and dry combing performance
Key Benefits:
Cetrimonium Chloride adsorbs onto the hair fiber surface, forming a conditioning film that smooths the cuticle and improves detangling.
Sodium PCA
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 40% increase in moisture retention
Key Benefits:
Helps maintain hydration balance in the hair fiber and scalp by attracting and binding water molecules.
Silicone Quaternium-22 Conditioning System
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 50% reduction in wet combing force
Key Benefits:
Provides lightweight conditioning that improves slip and smoothness without heavy buildup.
D-Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5)
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 10% increase in hair fiber diameter
- 10–15% improvement in moisture retention
Key Benefits:
Panthenol penetrates into the hair shaft and binds moisture, helping improve elasticity, flexibility, and the appearance of fullness.
Hydroxypropylgluconamide (and) Hydroxypropylammonium Gluconate
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 28% increase in hair fiber strength
- Up to 40% reduction in breakage
Key Benefits:
Helps restore internal keratin bonds within the hair cortex, improving resilience and structural integrity.
Hydrolyzed Silk Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 30% increase in measurable hair shine
Key Benefits:
Forms a smoothing film across the hair cuticle that enhances light
reflection and softness.
Hydrolyzed Keratin Protein
Clinically-Proven Performance:
- Up to 40% increase in tensile strength
Key Benefits:
Reinforces the natural keratin structure of the hair fiber, helping
restore elasticity and strength.

Moisturizing Shampoo & Deep Cleanse Shampoo
Our Shampoos Don’t Contain Key Ingredients. Here’s Why:
Tresse Botanicals’ shampoos are designed specifically for effective cleansing and scalp balance.
As with every shampoo on the market, it is rinsed out of the hair
within seconds. Even though this is the case, other brands still put key (and more expensive) ingredients in the shampoo, where it quickly ends up in the drain.
We intentionally reserve our clinically-supported key ingredients
for the strengthening and conditioning steps of the Tresse system— where they remain in the hair and can deliver real results.
Notable Ingredients:
Gentle surfactants
- based on the renewable resources of corn and coconut
- does not to strip the hair completely clean of natural oils, etc.
- low irritation, high foaming capacity
