It is a chemical/physical principle: the hair keratin has mainly una negative electric charge (anionic) while the circulating dirt and dust una positive charge (cationic). The difference in charges establishes the bond between the two, which only the detergent used for cleaning can emulsify, precisely because it is mainly based on anionic surfactants.
