DECOVEC
Powdered liposomes for hair bleaching powders.
WHAT IT SOLVES DECOVEC™
Hair bleaching powders are designed to break down the melanin that gives hair its color through a process of oxidation.
During this oxidation process, part of the hair undergoes hydrolysis. The protective lipid layer of the hair cuticles is broken down and removed. As a result, the hair becomes dry, more porous, and brittle, and loses its tensile strength and elasticity.
DecoVec™ iscompatible with all types of bleaching powders. The liposomes are reconstituted when the bleaching powder mixture is prepared with hydrogen peroxide. The reconstituted liposomes help protect the hair fiber during the bleaching process, providing greater moisture, lubrication, strength, elasticity, and reduced porosity. This allows for safer, more efficient, and more intense bleaching.
It is easily incorporated as another component of the bleaching powder during the powder mixing production process. It is resistant to hydrogen peroxide (oxygenated water).
MECHANISM OF ACTION
During the bleaching process, DecoVec™penetrates deep into the hair fiber, delivering hydrolyzed collagen and dimethicone, which help reduce hair hydrolysis while softening the hair. It also contains alpha-bisabolol, purified phospholipids from soy lecithin, and vitamin E, which help reduce potential scalp irritation.

EFFICACY OF DECOVEC™
Tensile Strength Test of Hair Treated with:
1Bleaching powder without additives
2Bleaching powder with 1%DecoVec™ added
Both treated hair samples stretch further before reaching the breaking point than the control hair, while tensile strength decreases in both cases.
Hair treated with bleaching powder containing 1%DecoVec™ hasgreater tensile strength than hair treated with bleaching powder without additives.
On the other hand, hair treated with bleaching powder containing 1%DecoVec™ stretchesfurther before reaching the breaking point than hair treated with bleaching powder.
Hair treated with additive-free bleaching powder lost 15.10% of its strength compared to the control hair.
Hair treated with bleaching powder containing 1%DecoVec™ lost4.47% of its strength compared to the control hair.
Hair treated with additive-free bleaching powder appears more porous and dry under an electron microscope.
