Hair Care – AngelRing®

AngelRing® is a 100% natural hair care active derived from Funori (Gloiopeltis furcata), a red seaweed traditionally used in Japan since the Edo period for cleansing, conditioning, and enhancing hair shine. Reviving this long-standing beauty ritual with modern extraction science, AngelRing® provides a sustainable and effective alternative to silicones in hair care.

Rich in natural polysaccharides, AngelRing® helps repair damaged hair by improving moisture retention, smoothing the hair surface, and restoring luster. It forms a lightweight, hydrating film on the cuticle that enhances combability, reduces friction, and combats frizz—ideal for both rinse-off and leave-on formulations. Its gentle, environmentally friendly profile aligns perfectly with the growing demand for clean and nature-derived hair care.

NAGASE supplies AngelRing® throughout EMEA with robust technical support and global compliance, including China-approved documentation.
