Polyquaternium is the International Nomenclature for Cosmetic Ingredients designation for several polycationic polymers that are used in the personal care industry.
Polyquaternium is a neologism used to emphasize the presence of quaternary ammonium centers in the polymer.

INCI has approved at least 40 different polymers under the polyquaternium designation.
Different polymers are distinguished by the numerical value that follows the word "polyquaternium".
Polyquaternium-5, polyquaternium-7, and polyquaternium-47 are three examples, each a chemically different type of polymer.

The numbers are assigned in the order in which they are registered rather than because of their chemical structure.
Polyquaterniums are "active ingredients" or functional ingredients in hair care.
They're not there to make the product look pretty or smell nice or feel nice, they're used because they actively condition or detangle or because they form a film that creates "hold" in a product.
Some of these ingredients help your hair hold on to hair dye longer or provide UV protection.

Polyquaterniums find particular application in conditioners, shampoo, hair mousse, hair spray, hair dye, personal lubricant, and contact lens solutions.
Because they are positively charged, they neutralize the negative charges of most shampoos and hair proteins and help hair lie flat.
Their positive charges also ionically bond them to hair and skin.
Some have antimicrobial properties.

-Polyquaternium-11, This ingredient "clings" to the hair to make it appear thicker.
-Polyquaternium-11 also makes the hair easier to comb and gives shine to the hair.
-These molecules make great conditioning agents and are especially useful for damaged, chemically treated, or high porosity (negatively charged) hair.
-Polyquats typically work by forming a protective film around the hair, meaning they strongly bind to negatively charged hair, especially bleached or chemically treated hair.

-Polyquaternium-11 is used Affinity to hair, Makes hair more easily to be combed, lustrous, neat, flattening
-Excellent for use with blow drying and straighteners where Polyquaternium-11 can provide thermal protection for the hair.
-Polyquaternium-11 forms clear, non-tacky, continuous films and helps build body to hair while leaving it manageable.

-If you want your hair to hold for days and not be affected by humidity, polyquats are great.
They appear to bind more tightly to low porosity hair long-term than to high porosity hair.
Thus, low porosity hair may get that coated feeling, and high porosity hair more of a tangled, matted, dull appearance with polyquat build-up.

-Polyquats are often water-soluble but because they tightly grip onto hair, do not rinse off.
Even with sulfated shampoos, some polyquats are notoriously difficult to remove.
The best Curly Girl friendly detergent for removing polyquats is C14-16 olefin sulfonate (but Polyquaternium-11 can be drying so use it in moderation).
Find the best products with C14-16 olefin sulfonate, here.

-Like polyquats, silicones also coat and strongly bind to the hair.
In addition, silicones repel water which is why many curlies following the Curly Girl Method avoid using products containing silicones.
Curlies with high porosity hair that tends to become stringy, sticky, crusty, dull, rough, or unusually frizzy when wet, may be better off avoiding products with polyquats.

-Polyquaternium-11:
Provides light hold and is therefore often used in mousses.
On the flip side, Polyquaternium-11 can give hair a tacky feeling, before or after rinsing with water.

-Polyquaternium-11 is considered to be a conditioner if Polyquaternium-11 improves the quality of the surface to which Polyquaternium-11 is applied, particularly if this improvement involves the correction or prevention of certain aspects associated with surface damage.
Conditioning of the hair and skin must be a continuous process, as both substrates are in a constant cycle of shedding and renewal.
The main difference between hair and skin is that skin is basically a living organ that replaces its outermost layer on a frequent basis.
Hair, in contrast, is basically dead material derived from a few live cells deep within the skin surface.

-Common derivative of the polyquaternium group used to enhance the texture of hair care products.
It is more commonly used in hair products such as mousse because of its holding ability.
