substance that thickens and stabilizes products by forming gels

A gelling agent, also known as a gel agent or gellant, is a substance used to thicken and stabilize products by forming a gel-like consistency. In the context of hair care, gelling agents are commonly found in styling gels and creams, helping to provide hold and shape to hairstyles. They work by creating a network of molecules that trap water, giving the product its desired texture and viscosity.
