TENSILYX™ is a unique and proprietary compound developed by FILAMENT to help improve hair’s tensile strength and prevent long-term damage.
Comprised of patented long chain molecules + essential fatty acids and polyphenols, TENSILYX™ helps to create a fortifying bridge between broken bonds and ionic structures in the hair due to coloring & bleaching services, use of hair extensions, blowouts, and daily environmental damage.
Using curling and flat irons excessively can rupture the hydrogen bonds that maintain the hair's structure, as well as strip much-needed oils, moisture, and nutrients that the hair needs to maintain its structure and rigidity. If used too often, the hair shaft can split permanently and not be able to style properly in the future. It is also possible to overuse heat tools such that curl patterns change drastically.

Mechanical damage is one of the most detrimental contributors to low tensile strength in hair. Mechanical damage is caused by anything that excessively pulls or tugs on the hair shaft or bulb over long periods of time. This includes heavy brushing, brushing hair while wet, pulling hair during blowdrying, leaving hair in a ponytail over long periods of time, and continual traction aggression from having hair extensions installed. These all contribute to constant physical stress on the hair, causing breakage and weakness in the cortex which can rupture the helix that reinforces hair and gives it strength and shape.
It's no surprise that the sun and its UV rays are harmful on hair such as they are on the dermal matrix and skin barrier. Once the exterior cuticle becomes damaged and moisture is lost, hair becomes weak and compromised without the ability to regain moisture. Shielding hair from excessive sun and pollution can help balance free radicals in the hair biome that are needed to maintain high tensile strength and protection against other environmental aggressors. Hard water that contains heavy metals and calcium deposits also changes the way hair behaves and can lead to performance issues and low tensile strength with excessive build-up.
Although there is truly no such possibility as "anti-aging" in hair, throughout the course of the natural aging process, hair loses its keratin structure and melanin. As hair becomes more fragile over time, it is subject to the effects of chemical services and mechanical damage that will force breakage and splitting more frequently. This process is irreversible but can be helped with preventative measures by using the correct products that reinforce hair's health helix.
