Cocamidopropylamine Oxide (CAO, CAS 68155-09-9) is an amphoteric surfactant made from coconut oil derivatives. Unlike some harsher surfactants, Cocamidopropylamine Oxide is gentle on the hair and scalp. It effectively removes dirt, oil, and impurities without stripping the hair of its natural oils, making it suitable for all hair types, including sensitive scalps.
