What is hyaluronic acid?
Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in our eyes, skin, joints of the bones and some other parts of the body. It is found in humans and animals, both. It is a humectant that has the ability to pull water from the atmosphere and help retain it. Hyaluronic acid’s main function is to keep the tissues of your body moist and well-lubricated. Consider it like a sponge that pulls the water to hydrate and plump its surroundings. In simple words, it acts like a moisturiser for your scalp and strands. It is biodegradable, biocompatible and can also be made synthetically via a biotechnological process with the use of energy and bacteria. Though this magic ingredient is not found in your hair naturally, you can achieve maximum hyaluronic acid benefits for hair by including it in your hair care routine immediately.

Hyaluronic acid benefits for hair
• Hydrates the scalp and strands – Hyaluronic acid seals in the moisture from products and allows hair fibres to retain it, leaving the hair feeling hydrated. This in turn allows collagen to thrive in the skin and scalp and prevents dryness.
• Reduces frizz – Using hyaluronic acid on hair prevents unwanted moisture that causes frizziness. It does so by sealing the cuticle.
• Plumps the hair – This superstar ingredient helps to plump up dry, damaged hair and adds life to parched strands. This in turn could help to add volume to your roots.
• Revitalises high porosity hair – Dry, damaged hair does not retain moisture easily. Hyaluronic acid helps to fill in the cracks of porous hair and minimises moisture loss.
• Adds strength – Hyaluronic acid provides your hair with the nourishment it needs and leaves it feeling softer, stronger, and less prone to breakage.
• Improves texture – Hyaluronic acid helps to condition the hair so that it looks smooth and feels soft. Apart from improving elasticity, it also adds shine to the hair and may help you achieve glossier hair.

Hyaluronic acid hair care
Now that you know hyaluronic acid is good for hair, here’s a stepwise hyaluronic acid hair care routine to help you achieve maximum benefits.
Step 1: Cleanse your scalp and strands effectively
Shampoo your scalp wisely, in a way that it gets as much moisture as possible. Get rid of dirt, dust, debris, and impurities from your scalp and revive, and re-plump dull hair by using the L’Oréal Paris Hyaluron Moisture 72H Moisture Filling Shampoo that provides long-lasting hydration on the go. Formulated with hyaluronic acid for hair, the Hyaluron Moisture shampoo provides 72 hours of hydration and leaves it feeling healthy, and nourished.
Pro tip: Make sure that you say no to long, hot showers as they can strip the hair of essential oils and lead to dryness. Opt for quick, cold, or lukewarm showers to maintain your hair's natural shine and lustre. And yes, a good way to achieve umpteen benefits of the Hyaluron Moisture shampoo is by focusing the product on your scalp instead of your entire hair length as your scalp is the area where most debris get accumulated. Moreover, over-washing is a big NO! Wash your hair only as and when required.
Step 2: Don’t skip the hyaluronic acid conditioner
You may tend to skip the conditioner to save time and effort. But, using a conditioner every time you shampoo your hair is non-negotiable to maintain the health of your hair. Use the L’Oréal Paris Hyaluron Moisture 72H Moisture Sealing Conditioner to hydrate your strands thoroughly and leave them feeling bouncy, shiny, radiant, and free-flowing. This hyaluronic acid conditioner helps you get detangled and manageable hair with ease.
Pro tip: Apply the conditioner only on certain sections of your hair and avoid the scalp. Concentrate on the length and tips of your hair. Use a wide-toothed comb to evenly distribute the product through your hair so that no spot is left over or under-moisturised. Rinse it off thoroughly.
Step 3: Pamper your tresses with the Hyaluron Moisture night cream
Don’t settle only with a hyaluronic acid shampoo and conditioner routine. You need to go a step ahead and make hyaluronic acid a part of your night-time hair care routine too. To give your hair a boost of hydration and pampering as you enjoy your beauty sleep, use the L’Oréal Paris Hyaluron Moisture Hydra Filling Night Cream.
