General description
Jojoba oil is a liquid wax obtained from the seeds of jojoba plant (Simmondsia chinensis). It is generally composed of long chain esters of fatty acids and fatty alcohols. Its minor constituents may include free fatty acids and alcohols, phytosterols, tocopherols phospholipids, and triglycerides. The fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) produced by the transesterification of jojoba oil-wax with methanol shows promising potential as biodiesel.

Straightening is a chemical process by which excessively curly hair is straightened in an irreversible way. Generally, products are formulated as emulsions with high pH value (9.0-12.0), which, after applied on hair, cause considerable damage, making it dry and fragile.
