    TLDR The treatment with silk proteins and linseed polysaccharides effectively protects and repairs chemically damaged hair.
    The study investigated the protective effects of a hair care treatment based on silk proteins and linseed-derived polysaccharides on chemically damaged hair. Hair swatches subjected to bleaching and coloring were treated with the proposed product and benchmark products. Results showed that the treated swatches had significantly increased resistance to breakage, reduced structural damage, and improved luster after the 1st and 5th washes. The study concluded that the proposed product was effective in protecting and repairing hair, enhancing its mechanical properties and appearance.
