Marshmallow root extract is derived from the herb Althaea Officinalis, a plant that has long been valued for its medicinal properties. Marshmallow root extract is composed of polysaccharides. Polysaccharides and mucilaginous molecules are film-forming polymers when applied to hair, which makes marshmallows quite useful as both a conditioning agent and a styling agent. It has emollient properties and can help with detangling as well.
