In a salon
treatment, you can have keratin containing products pushed into your hair by hot press. As simple as it may sound, each process takes at least 2 hours to complete. During this process, formaldehyde, a chemical, is released. This chemical helps the keratin bond with the hair strands. Even after coming out of the salon you are restricted from washing your hair for 72 hours. However, there are different processes these days. In some processes, the
keratin is made to penetrate the hair fast with the help of repeated hot press. In such cases you will not need to refrain from washing your hair for 72 hours. Whatever may be the time given by your stylist for washing the hair, it is meant for the
keratin to get settled into the strands of hair. This will help keep the chemicals inside the hair strands for two to three months. However, to maintain the results of the treatment you need to take extra care.
You must be careful about the kind of shampoo after Keratin Hair Treatment.You should use only those kinds of
shampoo which do not contain sulfates or sodium. Sulfates tend to strip your hair of the
keratin while sodium may dissolve it. Moreover, excessive hair washing is a strict NO, whatever may be the type of shampoo you are using. You can use the conditioner first on your hair surface and then use the shampoo. This may save the hair strands from the surfactants in the shampoo to some extent. This process will help you to keep the hair moisturized while avoiding the detergent nature of
shampoos. An able ally to this would be to rinse your hair with cold water.
Precautions to be taken during the treatmentHot ironing is a necessary evil that the salon must do on your hair to keep the protein entrenched in your hair. However, you must be careful about the amount of heat being applied. Too much heat can destroy your hair and make the strands prone to breakage and damage. Moreover, formaldehyde that is released during the process is not good for health. If you have any irritation in the skin, eyes or respiratory tract, report immediately to a physician. You may probably be allergic to such chemicals. Also a point of check on your behalf needs to be to check that the chemicals being used in the salon are from a certified brand and hence mean quality products.
Types of hair Keratin treatment can be applied on a variety of hair. Whether you have curly, fine, coarse, African-American, color treated, or chemical treated hair, you can make them smooth, fluffy, frizz free as well as straight with the help of
keratin treatment.
Precautions However if you have damaged or easily breakable hair, you should avoid these processes because application of heat to the extent of 450 degrees can further ruin your hair. If you are pregnant, please stay far away from these chemicals at all times.
