What are the benefits of bananas?

• Bananas are rich in vitamins A, B, C, and E, which are essential for maintaining strong, resilient hair.
• Naturally conditioning, bananas help improve sleekness.
• They’re rich in potassium and natural oils to help boost shine.
• Highly softening when ripe, they restore moisture, leaving your skin supple.

Did you know?

Bananas' unique texture comes from the fact that they consist of 12% starch and lots of fibre. This makes them perfect for creating a thicker texture in hair treatments. 

The banana plant (Musa paradisiaca) is a huge, perennial herb. Its trunk consists of tightly wrapped leaf sheaths. Its true stem pushes up from the centre and grows flower spikes or buds. Blossoms grow into upturned ‘fingers’, with each bunch containing as many as twenty fingers or bananas. Some plants have been producing fresh fruit for over a hundred years.
