while the overuse of keratin can lead to brittle and weak hair, the kure collection uses vegan proteins that do not build up on hair or cause breakage! you cannot overuse the kure collection when used as directed.
is there any keratin in these products?
no! we’ve replaced keratin with hydrolyzed quinoa, a vegan protein, so the new kure collection is 100% vegan and does not build up on hair when used as directed.
