Tyrosine (from Greek tyros=cheese) describes an amino acid that is essentially involved in the structure of melanin.
Tyrosine is used in cosmetic formulations. It has an antistatic effect (reduces static electricity by neutralizing the electrical charge on the surface, for example in hair), nourishes the skin; makes hair easy to comb, smooth, soft and shiny and gives it volume.
