List of common proteins
Protein overload is very common - many people think they are using a deep moisture conditioner while it is actually loaded with proteins. Protein overload can mimick damage and causes "phantom" dryness. Thankfully it can be reversed without cutting.
Here's a list I found of some common proteins used in hair products. Feel free to add! 
Amino acids - alanine, arginine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glycine, glutamic acid, leucine, lysine, methionine, proline
Blue-green algea
Brewer's yeast (hops)
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed casein
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed collagen
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed hair keratin
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed keratin
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed rice protein
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed silk
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed soy protein
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl hydrolyzed wheat protein
Cocodimonium hydroxypropyl silk amino acids
Cocoyl hydrolyzed collagen
Cocoyl hydrolyzed keratin
Elastin
Hydrolyzed keratin
Hydrolyzed oat flour
Hydrolyzed silk
Hydrolyzed silk protein
Hydrolyzed soy protein
Hydrolyzed wheat protein
Jojoba protein
Keratin
Keratin amino acids
Potassium cocoyl hydrolyzed collagen
Poly Beta 1-3 Glucopyranose (Saccharomyce Cerevisiae Extract)
Quinoa seed extract
Silk amino acids
Soy protein (glycine soja)
Soybean seed extract
TEA-cocoyl hydrolyzed collagen
TEA-cocoyl hydrolyzed soy protein

I believed vegetable protein refers to any non-animal food protein - soy, algae, kelp, grains, etc.
Please note all grain extracts are protein. The list provided is the most common proteins used in hair products, it isn't all inclusive.

Wheat is used as a protein in hair products.

Yes, as a thickening agent and as a protein. It's on the list above.

I'm not sure if this is right, but I read that aloe vera products have protein in them.. Is that true? Some say aloe is very moisturizing but some say it acts as a protein.
