Shampoo contains surfactants, which are molecules that have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties. When mixed with water, these surfactants help to lift and encapsulate dirt, oil, and buildup from the hair and scalp. As you lather the shampoo, the surfactants surround the impurities, allowing them to be rinsed away with water, leaving the hair clean. This process not only cleanses but also helps maintain the hair's natural moisture balance when formulated properly.
