Caution
Sodium Lauroyl Sarcosinate is an amino acid that occurs naturally in the body and is used as a cleaning and foaming agent. It is generally praised for being both a thorough cleaner and a gentle cleanser. It works by collecting excess oil and debris, then gently removing it from the hair by emulsifying it so that it can be rinsed away simply with water.
In addition to cleansing the hair, using a shampoo with sodium lauroyl sarcosinate on a regular basis has been demonstrated to improve the look of the hair by adding shine and body.
