How to Know if You Need a Keratin Treatment and Why You Should Have One

Are you tired of dealing with frizzy, unruly hair? A Keratin treatment might be the solution you’ve been looking for. In this blog, we’ll explain what a Keratin treatment is, how it works, and why it’s a great investment for your hair.

What is a Keratin Treatment?

A Keratin treatment is a smoothing, disciplining, and repairing treatment for all hair types. It’s a step-by-step process that involves washing the hair with a Keratin plus shampoo, blow-drying, applying the Keratin solution, and styling with irons. The result is smoother, shinier, and healthier hair that can last for 4 to 6 months.

Why Should You Have a Keratin Treatment?

Keratin smoothing works by smoothing out the frizz and bulkiness of the hair cuticle, making it more manageable to style each day. The Oxilamine technology in the treatment interacts with the main keratin amino acids in the hair, reinforcing and strengthening it. With this treatment, you’ll enjoy frizz-free, smooth hair that’s easier to style and maintain.

Step-by-Step Process of a Keratin Treatment

Here’s a detailed guide on the step-by-step process of a Keratin treatment:

  1. Wash the hair with Keratin plus shampoo to remove build-up and open up the cuticle. Do not apply conditioner.
  2. Blow-dry the hair till it’s completely dry.
  3. Take small sections of 5 cm and apply the Keratin solution, combing each section neat and flat. Focus on the frizziest parts of the hair, especially around the hairline.
  4. Use irons to help push the Keratin solution into the hair cuticle.
  5. Wash off any excess solution, towel-dry the hair, and apply longevity butter.
  6. Give the client a head massage to allow the butter to soak in.
  7. Blow-wave the hair and give a fairy trim to tidy up the ends.

Tips Before and After a Keratin Treatment

  1. Have the treatment at least a week before your next hair color appointment, as the Keratin can strip and pull the colour out.
  2. Don’t wash or wet your hair for at least 42 hours after the treatment.
  3. Have the treatment least twice a year to maintain frizz-free hair.
  4. Be prepared for a 3 to 5 hour appointment in the salon.

Important Things to Consider Before a Keratin Treatment

  1. A Keratin treatment is a smoothing treatment, not a straightening treatment. While it can smooth hair completely straight, it can also leave a wave for those with curly hair.
  2. The treatment won’t fix damaged hair instantly. It takes time, hydration, and care to repair damaged hair.
  3. The treatment is not permanent and can last up to 4 to 6 months, depending on your lifestyle.
