Assessing the True Effectiveness of Hair Care Products
Daily exposure to perming, dyeing, harsh shampoos, heat styling, UV exposure, and physical friction can severely damage the cuticle and cortex of the hair, leading to dry, brittle, and discolored hair. To combat these issues, the cosmetic industry has developed a wide range of hair and scalp care products designed to nourish, repair, and protect the hair from everyday stress.
To help brands substantiate that their formulations deliver visible, measurable results, CIRS Testing provides industry-leading efficacy testing for hair and scalp care products. Our scientifically designed studies offer credible, data-driven evidence to support efficacy claims, helping brands build consumer trust and strengthen their competitiveness in the global cosmetics market.
