What You Need To Know About Keratin Treatment

What you need to know about Keratin Treatment

Hair plays a huge role in building your look and confidence. Often, seeing someone walk by with a gorgeous set of locks that are full, luscious, and shiny will always be a head turner.

Unfortunately, hair gets assaulted by so many things throughout the day that keeping it healthy will become a challenge.

From humidity and temperature to tight ponytails or caps, the use of harsh hair products, excessive colouring, and factoring in hormonal imbalances and underlying medical conditions, your hair goes through a lot. All these things add up and cause the hair to lose its natural shine, become brittle and frizzy, and in the worst of cases, break and lead to hair loss.

That’s why pampering your hair with a nourishing and protective treatment will go a long way in keeping your crown the healthiest and most beautiful it can be.

 

What Is Keratin Hair Treatment?

Hair is made up of a protein called Keratin. This protein is made naturally by your body. Actually, it helps in keeping not only your hair and nails healthy but your skin as well. However, in damaged hair, the hair strands become very weak and brittle.

In a Keratin Hair Treatment, heat is applied to the hair to open up keratin bonds. A heat activated keratin based-product is then applied to the hair to fill in the gaps due to lost Keratin. Heat is further applied to seal the product.

The effects of a Keratin treatment may vary depending on the original quality of the hair, thickness, length, and hair types, but as the product diffuses into the hair, it will turn curlier or wavy hair into a more straight and silky appearance.

 

What Are The Benefits Of Keratin Hair Treatment?

After the treatment, you can automatically see the results and improvement in your hair. The top benefits you can expect are:

Silkier and Smoother hair. As the keratin treatment works to replenish the lost natural Keratin in your hair, the strands are strengthened. This results in much smoother hair shafts, giving it the signature silky appearance.

Straighter hair. The heat, combined with the keratin products, and then the application of more heat will render your hair straighter and shinier.

Better Waves And Curls. Though straighter hair is often the end result of keratin treatments, adjustments can also be made in the product and process so that the treatment doesn’t iron out your natural curls and waves. Instead, it adds structure to the hair strands, reduces frizz, and allows your hair to fall into smoother, healthier-looking curls.

Thicker and Stronger hair. The whole premise of a keratin treatment is to reinforce brittle and damaged hair. With the introduction of Keratin, your hair becomes noticeably thicker and stronger. This also leads to less breakage, which means hair follicles can grow stronger hair in the future.

Improves Manageability. When you have frizzy hair, it tends to tangle easily and becomes difficult to style. This also holds true for hair that is brittle, as it limits what you can do as it is prone to breakage. The keratin treatment makes your hair thicker and stronger and improves hair texture, preventing frizz from coming back, which also means it can handle more styling.

The result lasts for a long time. If properly taken care of, Keratin-treated hair can last months.

How To Take Care Of Keratin Treated Hair?

Depending on the formulation used in the treatment and your hair length and type, the treatment can last months. This also will depend on how you conduct after-treatment care.

In the first 72 hours after getting the treatment, you should not wet your hair or use harsh shampoos, put them in very tight hairstyles, or have them overexposed to the elements.

In the next few days, try not to over-wash your hair as this can lead to stripping away the keratin product on your hair. Only use mild shampoos which do not contain sulphates or parabens. You may also opt to use leave-on conditioners to provide additional protection.

If you use blow dryers to style your hair, it is best to use only the lower heat setting and reduce blow drying time. You should also consider applying heat protectants when using heat-based styling equipment such as a curler or flat iron. However, avoiding these tools within the first few weeks is best.

This also means that you should not expose your hair to harsh chemicals such as hair colours or bleaching within the next few weeks following your treatment.

Once everything has settled, you can now thoroughly enjoy your luscious and healthier looking hair.

Of course, if you have any further questions, it is always best to consult with a professional. These treatments can have a case to case difference and ask about possible side effects as people’s hair and skin will react differently.

However, Keratin treatment should be avoided by women who are breastfeeding or pregnant.

 

Should You Get A Keratin Hair Treatment?

Everyone deserves a little pampering every now and again. Even if you don’t suffer from severe damage, hair frizz, or suffer from breakage, getting a keratin treatment is a great way to proactively protect your hair.

It’s also an excellent way to restore health to your hair, improve your appearance and get silky smooth hair.

Frequently Asked Questions About Keratin Hair Treatment

Does Keratin Treatment Include Formaldehyde?

Many, but not all, keratin treatments include formaldehyde. Every product also has a concentration level that affects the treatment’s overall outcome.

Formaldehyde exposure can cause side effects, especially if inhaled. This is why it is important that you only engage with professionals, that it is done correctly, and that you are protected from possible side effects. You may also look into formaldehyde free treatments.

Are Keratin Treatments And Brazilian Blowout The Same?

Yes, a Brazilian blowout and a keratin treatment are essentially the same things. They use a Keratin based product that makes for smoother, straighter, and shinier hair.

Can You Get A Keratin Treatment If You Have Colored Hair?

Yes, although it is usually recommended to wait at least 2 weeks from the date of the keratin treatment to get your hair coloured.

Actually, getting a keratin treatment is beneficial as it helps your hair seal in colour and improves the longevity of the colour and vibrance.

How Long Do Keratin Treatments Last?

With proper care, the results of a keratin treatment can last up to six months. However, the effectiveness of a keratin treatment depends on several factors, such as how much hair you have, different hair textures, and how you take care of your hair.
